"W"

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Oliver Stone's biopic on President Bush. Shockingly, the release date is October of this year. I wonder why...

Anyway, you can find a script review here.

According to that reviewer, the movie does NOT paint W as good or evil. To his credit, that's exactly what Oliver Stone said. He told the media that he wasn't making a pro or anti W movie, but rather a story about his life. Of course, the script reviewer does go on to state that people watching this film should understand that it is NOT fact. It's based on things in the media or stuff that's been written about Bush, but it is not 100% accurate.

According to the media, the "facts" of his life are all evil and bumbling. I expect a propaganda piece for the election.
