‘Brüno’ Debuts on iPhone and at Top of Box Office
Friday’s box office returns are in and Sacha Baron Cohen’s Brüno lands groin-first at number one with $14.5 million (including Thursday midnight shows). The film seems to be tracking for about a $35 million number-one opening for Universal.

Brüno iPhone Application
As Brüno-mania is hitting the streets, you can now touch Brüno anytime you like with the new free Bruno application for iPhone and iPod Touch devices (iTunes App Store link). This is your chance to get up close and very personal with Sacha Baron Cohen’s most outrageous comedy creation, Brüno!
The Brüno iPhone app features exclusive ringtones, alarm clock alerts, games and soundboards showcasing the flamboyant fashionista’s favorite catchphrases.
- Brüno enjoys nothing better than being manhandled by complete strangers, so let your fingers do the talking with the exclusive ‘Touch Brüno’ feature. Hit his sweet spot and he’ll reward you with some Austrian dirty talk.
- Who wouldn’t want the chance to become the great man himself? Upload a picture of your face to Brüno-ize yourself.
- Marvel at Brüno’s ‘unterhosen’ by shaking your phone to see his fabulous range of thongs and underwear.
- Get wet with the Austrian zeitgeistmeister in the ‘Brünoquarium’.
I downloaded the app and it definitely is doing it’s job well by making me more interested in seeing the movie. Like the movie, the app’s content is very edgy so this isn’t for everyone. But if you want to spend more time with Brüno the app is a great way to extend your enjoyment of the movie.
