Oliver Stone’s latest movie “W” will be released to theaters on October 17th 2008, mere weeks before the Presidential Election in Novemeber.

Oliver Stone says:

“We don’t really know much about Mr. Bush beyond the controlled images we’ve been allowed to see on TV. This movie’s taking a bold stab at looking behind that curtain.”

Here is the trailer:

From the Telegraph in England:

The 90-second clip starts with scenes of US President George W. Bush, played Josh Brolin, struggling to find his way before entering politics: a whirl of drinking contests, gambling, drink-driving and being thrown in jail – he is seen being led down a prison corridor in Yale sweatshirt.

“If I remember correctly, you didn’t like the sporting goods job,” his father George H W Bush, played by James Cromwell, says as he lectures his son.

“Working in the investment firm wasn’t for you either, or the oil rig job. You didn’t exactly finish up with flying colours in the Air National Guard, junior.

“What are you cut out for?”

Bush senior continues as Brolin, star of No Country For Old Men, hangs his head.

“Partying? Chasing tail? Driving drunk? Who do you think you are? A Kennedy? You’re a Bush. Act like one.”

In what appears to be the world’s worst case of Beer Goggles, a Serbian man at a beer festival over the weekend apparently thought he was about to get lucky with a couple of ladies. He stripped naked and climbed in to an enclosure thinking it was a “Beer Cage”. He was promptly eaten by bears.

From Reuters via CNN:

A 23-year old Serb was found dead and half-eaten in the bear cage of Belgrade Zoo at the weekend during the annual beer festival.

The man was found naked, with his clothes lying intact inside the cage. Two adult bears, Masha and Misha, had dragged the body to their feeding corner and reacted angrily when keepers tried to recover it.

“There’s a good chance he was drunk or drugged. Only an idiot would jump into the bear cage,” zoo director Vuk Bojovic told Reuters.

Local media reported that police found several mobile phones inside the cage, as well as bricks, stones and beer cans.
