    These casting are sort of weird ....Josh Brolin as W.........he is much younger than the real one and looks nothing like him

    As well as Thandie Newton, she is way too young to be Condeeleza Rice

    I'm sure the film will remain true to actual events and that Stone will not take any artistic license to portray these people as he sees them. He certainly hasn't stretched the truth in any other of his films.... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    how anyone but Dana Carvey could be casted as George HW Bush is beyond me.

    also, the guy who played tony blair in "The Queen" was excellent.

    a spin off on the life of his daughters, during their college years, would be much more interesting. I would watch. :)

    and what about some of Jorge's arch enemies?
    Who will play the evil catholic Hugo Chavez? George lopez?
