...body armor. So he gives us Brüno on a camping trip trying to seduce some revolted Alabama hunters; Brüno getting belt-whipped - hard - by a nude dominatrix; Brüno in a steel-cage match melting into wet kisses with his opponent while the crowd goes wild - and not in a good way. But even when Brüno is in a hotel room infuriating members of al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades - a situation that needs to be handled with care, especially if the guy handling it is a fey blond who hasn't heard that...

Exactly a week after being flown out of the country at gunpoint, Zelaya called the bluff of the coup leaders and attempted to fly into Tegucigalpa in a small Venezuelan jet to the cheers of his followers. It could have been a spectacular homecoming for the history books. But after unleashing their M-16s on the protesters...
