I've heard its pretty good. Although, I've heard its more sympathetic to Bush than it looks.

If the good lord had intended us to go outside or have a social life, he wouldn't have invented the internet.

I heard the producer on NPR. He said he tried to give it a fair slant, and felt that Bush means well, but his actions don't always work out. I thought he sounded very even handed. I'll be seeing this one as soon as I can.


It's not just for BYOND you know!

It's a really great movie, and it isn't as bias as it sounds. It's a biography more than anything else, and the scary part of it is that the funny things you see in the movie actually happened. This is going to sound political because of my stance on the subject, but I honestly say this in a bipartisan way, as if I were talking about Charlie Chaplin: Bush's life story is a fantastic comedy full of ups and downs, and it makes for an interesting comedy-drama film. And I say this as if he were some CEO at a major corporation or something... it'll scare you in that someone who really thinks this way and acts this way can obtain genuine power. I know it sounds terrible and political, but mods, please see the movie before you delete my post. I swear, this hasn't been a typical run of me jabbing at Bush, this is my honest-to-god review of the movie.

I liked the movie, and it wasn't all biased either.

I love the part in the trailer where he says "in history... in history we will all be dead." It really sounds like something he would say.

If this movie gets good reviews, it will be George's best ratings in 8 years.

hahaha @ Retro Gamer; that was a good one. ^_^

Producer:

David Letterman:

--Late Show (Before opening theme).

That was an awsome one too.


All jokes aside - I'd like to see the movie.

Cheers,
