Oh, Lord, will this not go well.

 

[The Big Ragu]

I just love the fact that Josh Brolin will be playing Bush. I am assuming that neither of the Olson Twins were available.

 

[Chi City 81]

Mmmm ... Elizabeth Banks ...

 

[Armchair_QB]

They arrest people for tearing down goalposts?

[Fenian_Bastard]

Mmmm ... Elizabeth Banks ...

Now THAT'S what I call a priority, Doc.

 

[hockeybeat]

Dirty liberal Hollywood.

 

[Ace]

Can't wait. I love a good comedy.

 

[Fenian_Bastard]

He has to have the scene where drunken Junior calls Poppy out.

 

[Mizzougrad96]

Too bad nobody is going to want to see it...

 

[Steak Snabler]

What could go wrong? Wasn't JFK lauded for its accuracy and reluctance to rely on conspiracy theories?

 

[Bill Brasky]

This strikes me as a horrible, horrible idea. 70% of the people in the country can't wait for W. to go away, so they don't want to see a movie about him. And the 30% of the people in the country who think W. is the greatest living American are gonna see this as a liberal attack on him.
Even if Oliver Stone makes a pitch perfect movie, no one will want to see it.

 

[Simon_Cowbell]

He interrupts a meeting with Prince Bandar, in which he informs the Saudi ambassador about plans to invade Iraq, so that he can catch the rest of the 2002 Miami Dolphins-Baltimore Ravens playoff game. Bush is later shown choking on a pretzel and passing out during the second quarter.

And the Dolphins have been channeling Dubya ever since....

 

[Fenian_Bastard]

And that is how we put one one away.
Well-done, SC.

 

[slappy4428]

Mmmm ... Elizabeth Banks ...

Now THAT'S what I call a priority, Doc.

But the fact that she's playing FLOTUS just, I dunno, takes away some of her shine...

The hounds are unimpressed.

 

[Stoney]

And the 30% of the people in the country who think W. is the greatest living American

I'd say 30% is grossly overstating the number that still hold that opinion. I'm hard pressed to find even one these days, even the arch right wingers I know have all turned against him.

Oliver Stone will turn up missing sometime Mid-2009.

 

[Fudgie the Whale]

Say what you will about Stone's politics, he's a great film maker. I'm looking forward to it. Nixon is one of those movies that if I start watching for 5 minutes, forget it. I'm watching the whole damn 3-hour movie. I can't pull away.

Is he always 100 percent accurate? No. But in terms of movie making he's unique and I've watched everyone of his films.

I hear Dana Carvey will play George I. OK, not really.

 

[PeteyPirate]

Josh Brolin will work hard to get cross-eyed for the filming.
