Bets are good that the Obama family will be watching the Oscar telecast on Feb. 26 considering what avid movie fans they are.
Now that hes gone from office, Hollywood insiders reveal the Obama White House constantly asked for access to new releases. Hollywood has a long tradition of providing films to the White House, where theres a posh screening room.
There was never a film they didnt request to watch, says an executive at one studio. President Obamas office also routinely requested awards screeners (including La La Land and other current Oscar contenders).
Another source says an ask even came in to watch Monster Trucks several days before Barack and Michelle Obama and their daughters, Malia currently interning at Harvey Weinsteins film company and Sasha, left the White House for good on Jan. 20.
Sources say one or more members of the Obama family watched movies in the screening room, in the private residence and even on Air Force One. And when vacationing in Kailua, Hawaii, the Obama family often went to a nearby Regal theater.
Bill Clinton was famously interested as well in movies, but that was in the DVD era, so more often than not, he would ask for DVDs, says an executive. George W. not so much.

Low class non thinking drones. What worthless grifters.
Fairy tales, delusions, Obama. All go together.
The DVD era was 20 years ago? I'm old.
...the fantasy world.
Between Golfing and movies, I’m surprised he had enough time to sign so many EO’s.
There’s a common denominator with these creeps.
He probably had a signature stamp made just for the purpose.....
The important question is: what types of films did the Obama’s prefer. Do I even need to guess?
#1: “Barry does Dallas”.....#2: “Reggie’s Rump Rangers 6”....#3: “Behind The Black Door” (okay, Okay, that is an old one!)
Maybe Mooch wanted the Monster Trucks. We know who kept ordering the gay porn.
Good grief! Did they also request piles of popcorn?
I don’t fault the fake family for watching movies. Even though I’m poor, before I was poor I made a really nice movie room in my house.
60” tv with incredible surround sound ain’t too shabby for a tiny house. It’s like the movies.
Dolby 7.1 600w Onkyo surround sound system. And 360w subwoofer amp with two 12” and two 8” subs.
This is not news. Everyone knew when the Obamas were
headed to the screening room. Any time you saw them on TV
they were already picking their seats.
hehe....business will likely remain quiet
He’s all into that “hero/star” worship crap....
Honey I Shrunk The GDP.
