Oliver Stone to make "fair" movie about George W. Bush
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Director Oliver Stone, who has made movies about Presidents John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, is developing a project about the current occupant of the White House, but promises it will not be a hatchet job, Daily Variety reported on Sunday.

Stone is in talks with Josh Brolin, who is starring in "No Country For Old Men," to play the title role in "Bush," the trade paper said.

2. On the contrary, telling the truth would be a texas-sized hatchet job.
Oliver stone movies are boring anyway.

4. Who the hell would go to see it? About the only use for it
would be as a tool in the CIA's torture arsenal. If it was the least bit truthful, the morons who still like the chimp would be outraged at Oliver Stone and would boycott it. How many of the rest of us would spend our hard earned dollars on a chimp biopic when we automatically reach for the remote every time his ugly mug shows up on the tv screen. Stupid idea. Really stupid.
