In Reply to: W. - a strange biopic posted by tunenut on October 27, 2008 at 11:06:08:
cares, now that he's in his lamest of seasons?
What does he like to read, do in his spare time? He doesn't drink, allegedly doesn't mess around: any revelations there? How about gambling, or is Bush personal-habit perfect? Does he have a historical figure, political or otherwise (besides Jesus, of course.....) he emulates or especially honors?
W spent forty years of his life with general information that he partied a lot pretty much the only available info. But, as anyone older than a teenager knows, a life has more to it than that. What about his military service? Nothing new, either, right?
To just see a parade of good actors going through motions we already know about isn't particularly enticing, especially since the larger-than-life originals still are on the stage.
