Oliver Stone's W trailer released
Via AICN comes this pretty awesome trailer of the new Oliver Stone film about George W. Bush’s life, cleverly entitled W. Worth the watch, I think.
Call me crazy, but I think this trailer almost paints “Dubya” (as the cool politicos call him) in a sympathetic light. Which continues the staunch tradition of conservativism that flows through Hollywood. Those Hollywood fat cats blindly support our Republican brethren with their pro-war. pro-energy-gluttony agendas. Just once, I’d like to hear one of our sublimely intelligent Hollywood actors or directors talk about some liberal issue, just once. Your stuffed shirt biases will stand no longer, entertainers of America!
But yeah, that was funnier in my head. Anyway the movie will be good if Oliver Stone stops doing lines of blow long enough to realize that not everyone gives a crap about his hatred for conservatives. The only way this movie works is if people think that George Bush is a guy who’s just been pulled in too many ways as part of a larger problem of society/parenting/the bourgeois. If the movie just turns into a cheap way to mock a presidency before it’s even over and it’s just clips of George Bush falling off a tricycle or getting a football to the groin, I’ll be kind of annoyed.
