neutral · AI labelView post →Sacha Baron Cohen of Borat fame, did another movie in 2012 called The Dictator… This will blow your mind.
neutral · AI labelView post →Trump reminds me of the main character from the movie “The Dictator” He wants his name on everything, can not tolerate any difference of opinion, and knows nothing. Unlike the movie character though, Trump is incapable of learning from others, has zero empathy, and has zero comical presence.

neutral · AI labelView post →I SUPPOSE I SHOULD EXPLAIN Back in '08-12 I worked background in film and TV. So I sometimes interacted with the stars. Not often. But it was always entertaining In "The Dictator", I was a protestor at the UN, and Sacha Baron Cohen was pushing through the crowd and backhanded me right in the face.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Dictator’s democracy speech The speech the Dictator gave at the end of the movie about democracy and why the Americans should try dictatorship. I tagged this video to my profile a while back. Somehow it was deleted and not by me. So I am trying it again. youtu.be/9xB_kCbpOm0?... via @YouTube
neutral · AI labelView post →Maybe helps people to understand why he is dressed like Hitler in this scene. This is the end scene of the movie ' The Great Dictator' where CC plays both main roles, one a Jewish barber the other the Dictator. At the end they are mistaken for each other and he poses as the Dictator for the speech.
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh man, watched Sacha Baron Cohan’s masterpiece The Dictator and it is scary scary how that movie and Idiocracy are a cross section of our current political climate
positive · AI labelView post →In the movie Lord of War, the Dictator of Liberia commended Bush and the "Supreme Court of Kangaroos" for legitimizing his own corrupt regime through vote stealing shenanigans via the scrotus. You don't have to "hand it to them"
neutral · AI labelView post →From 2012 movie, The Dictator. He saw the future.
neutral · AI labelView post →Reporter: "How did you come up with the idea to reopen Alcatraz?" Trump: "I was supposed to be a movie-maker" Hahahaha, this is straight out of Sacha Baron Cohen's The Dictator. 😂 😂 😂 Americans, all but literally, decided to elect Admiral-General Aladeen as president. 🤣 🤣 🤣
neutral · AI labelView post →The entire speech from the 1940 Caplin movie “The Dictator” is worth listening to and is even more relevant today. Parts of the speech are included in the song “Iron Sky” by Palo Nutini if you are longing for inspiration, watch the Abbey Road recording of that song!
neutral · AI labelView post →From the film, The Dictator.
neutral · AI labelView post →I still think that drumpf saw the movie, The Dictator, & believes it's a biographical film & is basing his presidency on that movie. Expect to see him in every movie & the Olympics 🤭🤭 (I'm only half joking. I truly hope he's not THAT demented)
neutral · AI labelView post →Real talk, though? An anti-Fascist Muppet movie would go HARD! Think of it. They’re ordered to perform for the Dictator, but forbidden from playing “The Rainbow Connection” due to its queer connotations. They end up using the performance to attempt an assassination. Hijinks ensue! 1/2
neutral · AI labelView post →It's obviously because it's the one reliable way he can make money. The only big W he's gotten outside of doing this stuff is The Dictator, which was an aggressively mediocre film, even if it was a box office success
negative · AI labelView post →What is happening is terrible. If world was a movie, it's Idiocracy or the Dictator movie, everything is ridicuouls, fashes act like clowns, like the least Mussolinis. Putins doubles looks differently sick and dying, our slovak PM is like Moe from 3 stooges. Full parliament of comical slapstick come
neutral · AI labelView post →"The Most Controversial Film Of The Year About The Dictator Of Uganda!" Was there a less-controversial Idi Amin movie on theater screens fifty years ago, as well?! From the Los Angeles Free Press, Oct 1-8, 1976...
neutral · AI labelView post →Haven't seen it in a few years but it's a pretty funny movie. Chaplin also plays the Dictator. It made Hitler mad so it was banned a bunch of places.
positive · AI labelView post →Sacha Baron Cohen is an absolute legend! As co-actor Ben Kingsley explains, he came up with The Dictator before the Arab Spring, and I will add, the film came out three years before Donald Trump ran for president the first time. 👌🏾 😂
neutral · AI labelView post →From 0:24 onward, Sacha Baron Cohen describes exactly what America is today. This is an excerpt from the movie "The Dictator." #art #america #bluesky #promosky #thedictator youtu.be/XUSiCEx3e-0?...
neutral · AI labelView post →The Dictator movie with Sasha Barron Cohen....Not pointy enough👌🏼🤣👇🏼
positive · AI labelView post →Larry Charles and Sacha Baron Cohen did not collaborate on a film called The General. Its title was The Dictator. Apologies. But my point still stands.
neutral · AI labelView post →Who could have known that Sacha Baron Cohen could see into the future in his 2012 movie The Dictator. The Final Speech (60 seconds) in The Dictator was a prediction for America that has ironically come true 14 yrs later. #FuckTRUMP
neutral · AI labelView post →Read the book America v Charlie Chaplin to see how much the American right hated him for the film The Dictator even after WWII
neutral · AI labelView post →From the satirical movie "The Dictator" (2012): Admiral General Aladeen: "Why are you guys so anti-dictators? Imagine if America was a dictatorship. You could torture foreign prisoners. You could have rigged elections. You could lie about why you go to war".....

neutral · AI labelView post →From the 2012 satire movie The Dictator. Someone took it to heart.
neutral · AI labelView post →This was a hilarious movie at the time. Today it stings a little. Sacha Baron Cohen in The Dictator (2012)
positive · AI labelView post →Sacha Baron Cohen’s movie “The Dictator” is becoming our reality.
neutral · AI labelView post →This movie (The Dictator) is from 2012! Does anybody know who the “good guys” are anymore?
neutral · AI labelView post →America fights more Socialism than fascism. Watch Charlie Chaplin movie how FBI persecuted him during the filming of the Dictator. He moved to different states to shoot the movie because FBI would destroy his set.
neutral · AI labelView post →7. Fav movie(s) These 3, and all for completely different reasons lmaooo Though maybe not The Dictator anymore because Musk took inspiration from that movie so EWWWW
negative · AI labelView post →Objectively hilarious - like interviewing the wife of “the Dictator” in the movie 😂😂
neutral · AI labelView post →Remember Charlie Chaplin, the scene with the chairs, in the movie The Dictator
neutral · AI labelView post →One of the best “this is funny, but you’re high so you think it’s even funnier” scenes in a movie is the helicopter tour scene in The Dictator.
positive · AI labelView post →Ending from the movie 'The Dictator' - in which Chaplin bumbles around showing how incompetent and foolish dictators are. This final speech is one of HOPE.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Dictator movie
neutral · AI labelView post →Cant believe we're seriously living through the movie "The Dictator" rn
neutral · AI labelView post →Unfortunately true, but Charlie Chaplin in his 1940 Film, "The Dictator" touches on that subject... www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8Hd...
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s more like The Dictator than Borat. Or even the Chaplain film. Borat would be an upgrade.
positive · AI labelView post →What was that Borat movie?? The Dictator? Something like That? Never saw it! only clips
neutral · AI labelView post →Back to vintage postcards with Emlyn Willaims & Clive Brooks. Welshman Williams was a writer, dramatist & actor. Brooks started out in silent films. They came together in 1935 for the film 'The Dictator' which is about a true Danish Royal ccandal. Brooks has the main role with Williams second lead.
neutral · AI labelView post →This looks like a reboot of the Sacha Baron Cohen film ‘The Dictator’ where his character won 14 Olympic gold medals at his own Olympics 😂 A case of #MakeAIGreatAgain 😅
neutral · AI labelView post →Xmas reading. Larry Charles for the coverage of Fridays and the Dictator. Michael J. Fox has fascinating details of switch from Eric Stoltz to him. Max Allan Collins Falcon is a blast. Lots of double dealing tough dames. And Jay's Once Upon a Time book is a must read for fans of the film.
neutral · AI labelView post →There's a documentary called The Dictator and the Tramp - about Chaplin's The Great Dictator. It implies anectodal evnidence that H watched the film. Chaplin said he would have given anything to know what H thought of his merciless cinematographic attack on him. #hatm
neutral · AI labelView post →I think it's more Sasha Baron Cohen's character in the movie "The Dictator" that Trump is emulating! Maybe he thought it was a "How To" movie?
neutral · AI labelView post →I've only seen one Chaplin film and for some reason it was The Dictator. So yeah, gonna have to watch.
neutral · AI labelView post →Or the speech from movie The Dictator (S. Baron Cohen)
neutral · AI labelView post →I ran across this old film clip and couldn't help to see its relevance Today: The Dictator [2012] - Democracy youtu.be/vm7dIAq7QwM?... via @YouTube
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched a great doc "The Tramp & The Dictator" about Chaplin, Hitler, and Chaplin's film "The Great Dictator." I need to watch this old classic again. The final speech is so powerful, esp. given what we're living through right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg8A...
positive · AI labelView post →Watching 'The Dictator' on Sky Arts, the first Charlie Chaplin film with sound and loving it, it's very funny! parody of 'Hitler' slightly different.
positive · AI labelView post →And one more blog post for you tonight. This one for Anna Katarina, of The Game and The Dictator fame. He appeared in two iterations of Star Trek as well as a DC movie and a Marvel TV special. Anna Katarina (Star Trek, DC, Marvel) (trekkingacrossgenres.blogspot.com)
neutral · AI labelView post →I think you're right or darn near close to death. If he was alive he would be talking. It's like in the movie, The Dictator, they could be looking for the stupid body double.
neutral · AI labelView post →Comedy in the 2000s was when things got really desperately unfunny. Shit like Shallow Hal, The Dictator/Borat, Trailer Park Boys, Little Britain, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Ugly Betty, Scary Movie, anything from those Farrelly Brothers wanksocks. and most notably Friends and FUCKING SOUTH PARK!
negative · AI labelView post →Jason Mantzoukas in THE DICTATOR, THE HOUSE, and SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE is as good as a three-film run as a comic supporting actor has ever had.
positive · AI labelView post →28) Fav movie Always been a mix between 3 completely different movies: Rascal does not dream of a dreaming girl, The Dictator and Spider-man: Homecoming
neutral · AI labelView post →Thank-you 😊🙏 I discovered this song from the movie soundtrack of The Dictator. I love soundtracks because I almost always discover a new song or at least rediscover an old great song I haven't heard in years. The Guardians Of The Galaxy soundtrack is a good example of the latter.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ya know I was trying to take my mind off the horror of existing with empathy in dystopia, and was watching the brilliant Charlie Chaplin film "The Dictator", while listening to live improv techno music, and then Bam! they mention only one man who can help the dictator and his name is what? Epstein!
