In case you haven’t heard, Oliver Stone’s next picture is about George W. Bush. In case you don’t remember, he’s the guy who was president before Obama. The trailer just came out, and it’s weirdly fascinating:

After spending what feels like the bulk of my adult life with this bunch of clowns, watching people imitate them on film feels like coming home from school to find a bunch of actors playing your family. Still, if it’s even half as funny as the 5 1/2 hour* extended director’s cut of Alexander, we may have a winner!

Note: This joke is coming from a slightly dishonest place, as I have not seen Alexander. But that’s okay, because neither have you.

*5 1/2 hours?!? Really?!? I quote Rotten Tomato critic Jorge Avila Andrade when I say, “Como obra cinematográfica, no es la pésima cinta que han destrozado!!!” Oliver Stone is so bad-ass that when his 3 hour epic was unanimously hailed by critics and audiences alike as an overlong disaster, his solution was to tack on 2 1/2 more hours. “You think this movie’s hard to sit through, bitches? After I bust out my director’s cut, you’re gonna be begging me for the 3 hour version!”
