Oliver Stone: President Bush is a 'good salesman'
Oliver Stone has made three movies about presidents -- JFK, Nixon and the upcoming W., about the current occupant of the White House -- and though he doesn't see much to admire in President George W. Bush, the Oscar-winning director says he came to understand why the politician was able to connect with voters. "He was a cheerleader," Stone says, noting his his fellow Yalie's extra-curricular activity during college. "A cheerleader is a salesman. He was a helluva good salesman. He’s a good

San Diego Means...?
"I can't believe this Palin-MCain stuff," W. director Oliver Stone has told USA Today's Anthony Breznican. "I thought the other day [that they're being] made to look like anchors on a TV show in San Diego. Here's the old guy with the white hair and the young chick with the glasses, sitting side by side. 'Trust me...we're a good team.'" Shouldn't Stone have said "trust us, we're a good team?" And why did he say "Palin-McCain" rather than the other way around? Lose Your Mind

Oliver Stone, Comedian
A USA Today writer who has seen 1/3 of Oliver Stone’s George W. Bush movie “W.” says…..it’s a comedy. Color me skeptical that a self-righteous 62-year-old polemicist is suddenly going to be revealed as a great wit. Far down, the story quotes me, which reminds me: Journos, I am available to spew colorful commentary on nearly any subject! Meanwhile, the New York Observer is predicting “W.” will be the funniest movie of the season. Nah. Surely that title will go to 

New trailer for Oliver Stone’s ‘W’ …
Whatever your opinion of President Bush, or of Oliver Stone for that matter, this movie actually looks funny… if not sort of sad. It goes without saying that the film will be heavily biased, politically speaking, but all that aside… I can’t help but find myself a little intrigued having seen three distinctly different trailers for the film, leading me to actually look forward [out of curiosity] to an Oliver Stone film. This is an anomaly, trust me. I do not like Oliver Stone. Here a link

W. Movie Trailer
Lionsgate has released a final trailer for Oliver Stone’s W, which is basically an extended version of the recent tv spots. I think this is a vast improvement over the teaser trailer, because you get a much better understanding of the comedic/dramtic tone of the film. The juxtaposition of the war images with Bush’s stupidity is pure Stone. I also love how they call George Bush Sr. “Poppy”. Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Interesting News on the MPAA ratings front.
W, Oliver Stone’s allegedly comic biopic of George W. Bush (mainly dealing with his life pre-presidential run), has been awarded a surprising PG-13 (for language including sexual references, some alcohol abuse, smoking and brief disturbing war images). I presume this means that we won’t see Bush allegedly using cocaine in his youth. On the other hand, this is Oliver Stone’s second PG-13 movie in a row, and his second PG-13 movie ever, following the terrible World Trade Center. Stone used

'W' Trailer Makes Commentary on Bush's Funny Face and Post-Punk Policies
Alright, Oliver Stone, if you want to make your W trailer into an abbreviated Talking Heads video, that's fine, but at least make Josh Brolin do the appropriate dance moves for it. As it stands, he's just doing a lot of funny faces and spitting pretzel out of his mouth, which doesn't make for that entertaining of a movie. Still though: take that, Bush!
