Hollywood needs to get over it.

There are going to be two of these rewriting of history jobs:

People often say that the Winners get to write history.

But I bet Hollywood hopes to tell the tale of how America turned its back on the woman who could have saved us all, and instead settled for a racist, misogynist lunatic who no one likes.

These ghouls long for the days of the relevance and importance of “The West Wing” and all the other liberal wet dreams of the past.

Hanks is a putz, frankly. He got his start on TV playing some putz living in NY masquerading as women so they could live in a cheap women’s hotel - he starred with Peter Scolari who never made it big like the puts. It was called “Bosom Buddies.”

As far as AHS, there were a couple/three good seasons, but the last two just don’t get any better IMO. I imagine this next one will finally do it for me.

Interestingly, Hanks could get a lot of flak from the Hollywood Left just depicting what a terrible candidate Hillary Clinton turned out to be.

He will lower himself if he does a biased treatment of the subject.

...and won five Emmys.

Hollywood competing with itself. Big deal.

It’s sure to be an objective piece of art (...or s***).

Liberals just trying to make sure their view is the dominant historical narrative.

(They get their history lessons from movies and their news from comedic parodies of current events).

This was the most historical election in history. i expect movies and tv miniseries for a long time to come. It is what it is.

It’s the beatification of Hillary and democrats in general. I can see the camera panning away from Hillary in a still shot at the end as she smiles and waves and leaves us all thinking about what could have been. UGH!

Pointless.

No actor could capture Trump’s magnetism or the soulless evil behind Hillary’s eyes. And if we want to re-live the election - it’s all there on YouTube. Every debate. Every rally. Every network’s wall-to-wall coverage of election night. Why do we need a bunch of Hollywood leftists to offer an alternate reality?

There is an interesting review of game change by roger ebert:

http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/game-change

basically, ebert wrote that it is a good movie, and surprisingly sympathetic to mccain, but that palin was portrayed as unqualified for the VP slot by way of lack of policy experience at the national level.

i do not know hanks’ deep political background. however, he does seem to have a bit of a penchant for avoiding overtly PC films. A Band of Brothers was IMHO good. I thought Scully was rather good (I waited until i could rent it). Finally Hanks is at a point in his career where he is viewed as being unable to do any wrong. If anyone could make a politically incorrect film about Trump in today’s Hollywood, it would require someone of Hanks’ stature to pull it off.

Hopefully they include the facts, Hillary ran the worst election and she was unlikeable and had no message other than hate.
