Comments on: W Movie Release Date Draws Fire From Obama & Bush Fans Alike http://blog.spout.com/2008/07/30/w-movie-release-date-draws-fire-from-obama-bush-fans-alike/ Daily coverage of what is truly interesting in the film world Fri, 27 Nov 2009 16:55:43 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Mike http://blog.spout.com/2008/07/30/w-movie-release-date-draws-fire-from-obama-bush-fans-alike/#comment-115083 Mike Tue, 07 Oct 2008 21:40:12 +0000 http://blog.spout.com/?p=3557#comment-115083 Its already been proven at the box office that movies that trash current administrations lose money. This one will be no exception. While not a Bush fan, I am a fairness fan and this movie ( going by the leaked script and traliers) is going to denegrate Stones director abilities To showcase Bushes shortcomings are pretty redundant anyway, since he does a grat job all by himself anytime he is on TV At the end of the day George W has the last laugh as no matter what, he still got elected twice. We knew Clinton was a liar cheater before he was elected, what happened this time? Exaclty. Am I voting Obama? nope sorry. No attacks after 911 and a Katrina hurricane again yet all safe means current philosophy is working Thats not a personality thing its a lifestyle vote. At the end of the day thats what you vote for. Obama is not about change, he is putting out plays right from the dem playbook Promise to give something - health care Tax the rich (even though they already pay 60% of ALL taxes) same old doo doo McCain? Nice man, been through a lot, experience counts and a fresh faced pistol there behind him Could be 12 years of republicans this time around I am off to call vegas on those odds Scrap watching this swill before it starts Its already been proven at the box office that movies that trash current administrations lose money.

Ironically, Josh Brolin is a rather liberal democrat. Can you image how funny it would be if he gets photographed wearing this shirt? It would be like Paris Hilton holding the bible. I feel like if enough people blog about him wearing the shirt it will actually happen. The link on above is for a CNN headline t-shirt that reads, “W depicts Bush as a frat-boy partier”.

If it is the slightest bit revisionist, it becomes a house of cards that can be pulled apart and used to fuel new arguments in the final days of a heated election. Although the trailer made me laugh, it will likely speak only to the choir, which will further divide folks (when people feel their party insulted they are more likely to cling to it, if Obama is saying - let's all be cool - they are more likely to listen).

Certainly Salvador, Born on the Fourth of July, and JFK suggest that Stone is more paranoid Leftist than jingoistic chest-thumper. Though World Trade Center and the not-altogether unsympathetic (at least on a personal level) Nixon balance out the picture a little bit. Stone’s machismo is more of the left-wing guerrilla variety.

But, hell, we can enjoy this. What does Obama got to do with it? Stone is a fairly right wing Republican kind of guy anyway even if he's "Hollyweird." I can't wait to see Bush challenge the old man to a fist fight!! And besides it's a movie! Please do we have to toe the frigging party line in everything?
