Holy effin' shit......(W. the film)
Edited on Sun Aug-10-08 10:31 PM by Aviation Pro
...this film will eviscerate Preznit Fuckstick and the whole fucking crew.

I think this will become an audience participation classic ala "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."

25. he will make a cameo as himself
incidentally, he was already on the studio lot at the time of filming, as he was cast to play George Burns in a biopic (who he mentored in the Vaudeville scene).

3. Can't wait
But it's really too bad OS couldn't have gotten this made, say, in 2002 or so...rather than when the turd is swirling most of the way down the bowl.

And BTW, the actress they've got playing The Quaker Oats Man definitely is a hell of a lot more attractive than Babs Sr. Toby Keith as Rove is okay, but I think Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have been even better.

6. I think the film's intent is to tie....
...the motherfucker to Senator Angry Old Prick so tightly that not a single molecule could pass between them.

10. I hope Stone showed the absolutely-fucking ROYAL setting for W's '04 GE "victory" speech.
I'll never forget all of the gold everywhere and the enormous nearly 2-story tall golden W hanging from an upper-tier in a swanky hotel atrium . . . bunch of murderous idolators.

12. IMDB has an entry on it.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1175491/

I don't see McCain listed in the cast. Too bad.

It's a shame that you didn't give this thread a more descriptive title so that people would know what it's about.

24. I've posted several times on the 'W' board
There are about five people there who are adamantly pro-Bush: imdb71, writingsam, tarababy28, GawdIsLove and one or two others.

The rest have some sense.

18. Check out the thread on Bush sitting in the classroom on 9/11.
User Imdb71 is desperately trying to defend Bush but his argument seems to be that Bush couldn't have done anything useful even if he did leave immediately. :rofl: I think I agree with him! :rofl:

19. We'll see if the media can kill it before a lot of people see it
We know they'll do their best to stifle this movie.

21. Oliver Stone supported the Official Conspiracy Theory about 911 in his last movie.
So I don't really trust Stone anymore.

BTW, Does this new "W" film even delve into *'s sociopathic personality traits?

Because if it doesn't, then the entire story isn't being told-again.

22. not having seen any more than the trailer, i'm worried that it furthers the "redemption" meme
you know the bu**sh** media story that, sure, shrub WAS a spoiled drunken brat who did nothing useful, but he found god, found purpose, sobered up, and NOW he's a great leader.


i sure hope the movie doesn't just trash his "early" years and pretend that today he's somehow more man than monkey.

23. Aviation Pro
was the part that got me to read this post, and my own response is "Wow!"

It looks like an overdue, but potentially indelible, cultural touchstone.
