Video of the Day: W., the Oliver Stone Film

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

About how much of this movie do you think will be historically accurate?

It's directed by Oliver Stone and stars (famous liberals) such as:


Josh Brolin ... George W. Bush

Elizabeth Banks ... Laura Bush

Ioan Gruffudd ... Tony Blair

Thandie Newton ... Condoleezza Rice

Ellen Burstyn ... Barbara Bush

Jeffrey Wright ... General Colin Powell

Richard Dreyfuss ... Dick Cheney

James Cromwell ... George Herbert Walker Bush

Scott Glenn ... Donald Rumsfeld

Jesse Bradford ... W's college friend

Noah Wyle ... Don Evans (rumored)

Jason Ritter ... Jeb Bush (rumored)
Rob Corddry ... Ari Fleischer
Toby Jones ... Karl Rove

Sayed Badreya ... Saddam Hussein

What do we think about the casting and, more importantly what do we think of the movie?

This looks like it's going to be a riot. Stone's attempt at satire? A post-9/11 political volte face? A semi-remake of Forrest Gump? Whatever it is, I'm going to see this motherfucker.....
