Oliver Stone To Direct George W. Bush Biopic

[Gotham]

This movie is going make Alexander look like the greatest thing slice bread. Mark my words.

I don't know, I think this has the potential to be an interesting film.

Looking at the new picture, she actually has a large resemblance to her.

too handsome and he doesn't look like an idiot.

 

[Triligors]

They should get that guy from Harold and Kumar go to Guatanamo Bay.

yes, he does. every single day.

 

[BatMatt]

The real Laura isn't that hot

I would honestly say that is a pretty accurate makeup job. I'm waiting to see how Liam Neeson looks in Lincoln though...that is gonna look surreal. Like the Hall of Presidents and ****.

 

[The Senator]

This doesn't seem like it will be a serious film, from what the Entertainment Weekly article tells us. Granted, I'm not a Bush fan by any means, but when you include scenes with Bush saying things like "I'll never be as good as poppy" or a scene where he almost dies after choking on a pretzel, it simply sounds like Stone is aiming to make this a farce instead of the serious, objective drama he promised us a few months ago.

 

[Captain Planet!]

Like I said before, This will be hilarious.

 

[DocHoliday]

Brolin for the win

 

[Polomontana]

Brolin looks good as W. I like Stones biopics (except Alexander). I thought Nixon and JFK were very good movies especially JFK.

This looks like it will be good and you can tell W is a serious goofball. It's just obvious from his expressions and his dancing.

 

[xwolverine2]

umm is this gonna be a comedy at least?

or like Thankyou For Smoking?

if its a serious movie, i see it being crap

 

[Sawyer]

This may just have the potential to be the best comedy of all time, and a great companion for Lil Bush.

 

[Ender Durden]

looks more like...

so basically what they planned to do from the start was stick any actor in a W mask?

No one's going to see a multiple hour SNL sketch.

If anyone believed this would be an unbiased drama, you are a bigger idiot than Oliver Stone.

The GWB biopic will chronicle the life and presidency of the 43rd President of the United States of America. Bush is reportedly portrayed in the film as a foul-mouthed, reformed drunk obsessed with baseball, Saddam Hussein and the conflicted relationship with his dad.

Directing is Oliver Stone, whose film credits include Nixon and JFK. He loves them presidential movies!

Here’s the rest of the cast: Thandie Newton as National Security Advisor turned secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Ioan Gruffudd as Tony Blair, Rob Corddry as Ari Fleischer, James Cromwell as George Herbert Walker Bush, Ellen Burstyn as Barbara Bush and Jeffrey Wright as General Colin Powell.

BWUAHAHAHAHA..

I gotta see this movie for sure. Sure, every media source is ripping Stone to shreds on this, mostly because they were expecting something more subtle and dramatic. Expectations can truly ruin a movie. I'm glad I had none here and I can see where Stone is taking this.

He's Oliver Stone for one thing. Alexander is another.

Brolin looks more like Tony Snow than Bush.
