The official site for Sascha Baron Cohen's new film The Dictator is up and it's positively hilarious. Find out all about the Republic of Wadiya and it's most loved leader Shabazz Aladeen. Of course, you'll want to make sure you translate the page from Wadiyan to English to get all the jokes, I mean uh, complete and total history of the fantastic country of Wadiya.
Here are some highlights:
On the timeline of the history of Wadiya:
0 B.A.:
Aladeen is born. He delivers himself, cuts his own umbilical cord, and immediately delivers a most-inspiring speech criticizing the treachery of the Western nations.
0 B.A. – Present:
A period of indescribable joy that only increases with each day that Aladeen so charitably chooses to remain our leader despite being so very overqualified for the position.
On Aladeen's Childhood:
Aladeen’s childhood was filled with tragedy; all six of his older brothers met with the most accidental of deaths. The eldest slipped on Aladeen’s Hot Wheels cars and fell down the stairs while babysitting Aladeen. Another brother fell and impaled himself through the eye on Aladeen’s “Action Jackson” action figure -- again while babysitting. Another was murdered at age 12 by General Motors when his Pontiac Trans Am put itself in drive and ran him over. Tragically, Aladeen’s remaining three brothers perished in a typical suicide pact by simultaneously shooting themselves in the back multiple times with automatic rifles.
On the Wadiyan Museum of Tolerance:
Open daily from 9 to 5. Women, Jews, and disabled not allowed.
Check out the website here and look for the movie on May 11th.
