The Reagans Live Thread (Was "I Will Watch The Reagan Movie on Showtime")
11/30/2003 | By Laz

Posted on 11/30/2003 4:52:27 PM PST by Lazamataz

Listen, it's probably going to turn my stomach. It's probably going to be horrible. But it is premiering on Showtime shortly, and I think I might watch it to report from behind enemy lines. This thread will be dedicated to my observations thereof.

I will be fair. If there are parts that are good, I will say so. If not, I will report that too.

Wish me and my vomit-reflex much luck.

Moderators, this is a live and developing thread. I will make observations upon the bias and crap they shovel. I will be very fair. I hope you, as moderators, agree that this thread might be a valuable resource for FR in the future, and keep it in News.

Salute the good soldier, doing his duty. Don't have showtime here.

Be sure and compare what you see with the Media Research Center's analysis.

It looks like a sloppy hit piece from the review.

I just wish I was able to see it. It sounds like it will be high comedy.

I was hoping there would be a live thread, to document the damned thing. Thanks for starting, and maybe admin could change title to include 'LIVE THREAD' and put this in breaking news until 11pm.

If this ruins your sense of humor we'll never forgive Showtime.

"For dramatic purposes some dialogue has been embellished and some characters are composites..." Showtime apologist.

Matt Blanc (sp?) giving a disclaimer at the beginning. Some dialogue is embellished, he said, and some characters are composites. But he thinks it is otherwise fair. Says Reagan was extraordinary and charismatic.

Thanks. I'll do the same for "The Simple Life" premiere on Tuesday night.
