If it’s released in September 2012, it will be just in time for an Oscar nomination for that year.
Oh the possibilities...
McQueeg just has to pretend otherwise.
ED Harris is a far-leftist and Julianna Moore is not much more moderate. Some of their quotes about Bush, Iraq and Afghanistan go way beyond rational criticism.
Normally I don’t care who the actor/actresses are in movies but this choice leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
By the way, both are excellant actors/actresses so if the choice was based purely on talent, I’ve got no problem with it. I just won’t see the movie.
Since it is HBO, you know it will be a hit piece.
I’m going to make a movie, too.
I’m going to call it “RINO”.
It’s a story about a dottering old man who pretends to be Republican, but is actually a Progressive. In this story, his bumbling, pathetic campaign hands the United States to a Marxist who wasn’t born in the US....
Ed Harris is a damn good actor though. I can excuse his leftist views to watch him on the big screen. His role in “The Rock” was mesmerizing.
Michael Hogan would have been a MUCH better choice.

You can bet this is the political pay off. Think about it.. who the hell cares about a movie of Mccain.....EXCEPT... McCain.
Did the conversation go something like this.... “ John how about running as a republican but you got to run a half assed campaign and we will make a cool movie of your life. Who do you want to play you? Ed Harris? ok Get Eds agent...”
Like I would EVER want to relive McLame’s so-called “campaign.” All I ever need to know about McPain I learned in October 2008 when he said “Obama is a good decent man that they did not have to fear as POTUS.” McP clearly demonstrated that he himself does not have the judgement to be POTUS.
It will be, predictably, a hit piece on the left’s greatest fear Sarah. Done in that snotty Hollywood style that’s both urgently earnest and still manages to lecture us on the “hateful” right.
The crushing predictability is Big Entertainment’s deep shame.
Julianne Moore is one ugly broad from a profile view. Whew! Like Brian Williams and Nora O’Donnell.
I like Ed Harris’ work, I like Julianne Moore’s work, but...this thing is going to be a turd, isn’t it?
Just as McLame, this movie will bomb!!!
I get maybe the motive....but, considering how McCain did in the elections....Why McCain?
It would seem those that will watch this tripe will simply be HBO preaching to the choir.
I guess Steve Martin was busy ,,,, jerks of a feather !!!
Ed Harris. Perfect.
This is the latest post I’ve seen regarding the casting of Harris. I have no problem with his acting. However, I will never forget his sitting on his hands when the academy recognized Elia Kazan. Roll the tape, I dare you. One of the greatest Hollywood film makers, and a staunch anti-communist, was dissed by this historically illiterate jackass. I will never forget that moment.
