Except this is a movie.I'll bet dollars to donuts there is as much spin and untruth in this film as there has been in the current administration.
Even if the facts are totally out of whack, I've always felt like I don't fundamentally understand who this guy is. My highest hope for this would be to get some insight into that. If not, I'm sure it'll be something to talk about.

Yeah. Even though I said it, there's no way this film will be equal to the fuck ups and lies in Bush's administration.Except this is a movie.
But this is more than a movie in the way that JFK or Platoon were more than movies. Stone is notorious for playing fast and loose with facts to get his own wacked out story across. I don't even know if he believes half the stuff he slops together. Perhaps he figures it's okay to "dramatize" to make it more entertaining.
But think of all the folks that saw JFK and took the conspiracy theory as credible. Even conspiracy theorists considered it shit when it came out.
Bush has done enough to fuck up his own legacy. I don't think he'll need any help from Stone to get that across. But Stone will again speculate and create to fill in gaps and *poof* the masses will run with it and it'll be the asterik on Bush's biography.
That being said, I'll probably still go see it.
