1. Why a movie on Dubya NOW? |
|
And anyone who plays him will make him look better than he actually was. Brolin playing Bush? No matter how dumbed down he acts, he won't give me the shivers like the real thing does whenever I hear his voice.
And another thing Bushes term is not over. He still has time to outdo any plot climax Oliver Stone has set up for the story. I can't see why Stone wouldn't wait for a few years after The Decider leaves office (glory be the day) when we'll find out a lot of other nasty tidbits from all his appointees scrambling for deals to stay out of jail.
An actual well-done documentary would be more powerful and more scary than any glossy (and glossed over) Hollywood production. I want to see F 9/11 2!
Oh and good job on this and other cartoons you do matthewf

3. Edward Norton could play him. |
|
He does sadistic weaselly creep sociopath who thinks he's smarter than he is really well. Although I agree, well-done documentaries are much better than anything fictionalized.

5. Edward Norton is a great actor but even he would have trouble with Dubya. For starters, |

Ed is far too attractive. And smart.

8. Yeah but he's an excellent actor and plays dumb evil really well. |
|
And by your criteria possibly only Cheney or Rove could actually play Dubya. ;)

To make things even more realistic, he needs to get a few DUIs under his belt as well.

11. Yeah. It's not super serious. If only we'd arrest the man he was playing. |
