Re: W.
So, this is actually a comedy? Has Oliver Stone done comedies before? I don’t remember.

I believe it's played straight.

Re: W.
I have concerns about this because I know they wanted it out by Nov.
Stone was my favrotie fillmaker for years (Platton - Nixon), so I still have hope that he has a few really great films left in him.
My brother missed his big chance. He should have auditioned People tell him he looks like Powell all the time.

Re: W.
Just saw it on another link from YouTube.
I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I'm actually looking forward to this movie now, and this is coming from someone who can't stand him.
See it while you can before it is pulled again:

The use of "What a Wonderful World" alone is very heartfelt.

Wow, he does. 
With Oliver Stone I have noticed that he doesn’t care that much if the characters look like their real life counterparts or not. He actually always casts known famous actors that resemble them a little! Just look at JFK and Nixon.

Re: W.
Looked pretty good, surprisingly so. And other than the title and the ironic use of "What a Wonderful World", looked like pretty straight docudrama. When you think of how Dubya transformed himself from a reckless fratboy to a president elected twice by the states and once by the people, it's a hell of a story. Loved Cromwell's line as H.W. about acting like a Kennedy.

Re: W.
I'm not a fan so this movie would have to get great word of mouth before I'd see it.
