...except the Transformers toys, television series and first animated movie date back to the mid-eighties. When the first big movie was released in 2007, the concept was more than 20 years old and Obama was still a Senator of no consequence. The project for the 2007 film and screenwriting began in 2003, well before Obama began running for President.

Obama wasn’t portrayed too well in the last two

"These radical-feminist/metrosexual movie reviewers are overly concerned with "subliminal messages" and whether or not women are portrayed correctly i.e. they perform as radical feminists expect them to perform."

Yep. A NYT movie review tells you a lot more about the reviewer than the movie being reviewed.

Gosh, how was “Death of a President” reviewed by the NYT? That was an assassination of GWB....

From the Slimes in 2006:

“Since it was shown at the Toronto International Film Festival last month, “The Death of a President,” a formally clever fake-umentary directed by Gabriel Range, has attracted some fairly predictable controversy. Since the president in question is George W. Bush and the death is the result of an assassination, the film has become a lightning rod for the usual forms of self-righteousness that often masquerade as political discussion. On one side, howls of “How dare you?” and on the other, ringing endorsements of free expression and artistic courage.”

Over-indoctrinated, pseudo-intellectual liberal idiot.
