Oliver stone and "W"

New 'W' trailer: A walk on the wild side with Bush | The Big Picture | Los Angeles Times

What is the deal with this movie? Can we expect a fair portrayal here? and lets not forget about the timing.... When is this expected to be released...


What do you think of all this?

What's the deal with this movie? BDS. A fair portrayal? Hardly... It IS Oliver Stone after all... example? See JFK.

However, it's his constitutional right to put something like this out. I hope he sank a lot of money into it and it tanks, though.

Zero chance of a fair portrayal, the movie will be pure simple propaganda. It's too bad too, because you shouldn't have to lie to make Bush look bad

Well, lets see how it is before claiming its fair or not. We know the Bu****es will slam the movie regardless if the facts in the movie are true or not.

Why? If he could, we conservatives here in Florida would swoop in and hook him up.

Whether you're visiting a loved in the hospital, or casting a ballot, here in Florida, we treat you right.

Re: Oliver stone and "W"

Since it's a movie, I don't care if it's a fair portrayal or not. It's simply entertainment to me, not a political statement.

That being said, it looks like the movie is about Dubya's history before the Presidency. So I don't think that those conservatives lookin' for a little right-wing in their entertainment will get too banged up about it. I'm sure left-wingers are gonna have a field day during the drunk-driving and wild-livin' scenes, though!

I gotta say, I do love Florida. A cracker boy sho' 'nuff do treat a fella right. There are 50 states in our union and yet I make way to Florida at least twice a year. Why go anywhere else? I even lived just south of Pensicola for while.

That all being said, regardless of my personal love for the great state of Florida, I think most of the rest of the nation are of a mind that they really don't want Florida to be a big determining factor in this years election. You know what happened last time.

Florida rocks. But I think they should just stick with oranges, fishing, and just being cool mo'-digga'z.

Shout out to my brothers down there in Land O' Lakes, Tampa, Yuba City, Gulf Breeze and Lakeland.
