First there was Ben Stiller doing the lion, but let it pass, let it pass. The zebra was a street-black character voiced as a shallow street-black character. A racial parody. How offensive! Why can't we all just get along -- and talk the same?The giraffe was a faggy neurotic, or again a parody of one. Why can't he just be made to act normal?
And the woman in the star quartet was a hippo! That's not amusing.
Worst of all, Ali G was the Lemur King and he spoke in an accent that made fun of all foreign accents.
How much better, and more *sensitively*, we would all get along if such stereotypical portrayals were avoided and we all spoke standard English.
The movie wasn't very funny either.

Funniest film line of the year, if you couldn't stand "Bonfire of the Vanities."
You are joking, right?
...who toe the utterly humorless PC line. See, normally they would be the ones to object to racial humor and accents, but when pilloried (parodied) they simply whine.I never expected such satisfactory results.
Probably not.
sense of humor for "racial" jokes.
I wonder how funny he thought the conviction of that Mississippi guy was?
