Film On Bin Laden Raid–Set For 2012 Release–Spurs GOP Call For Pentagon Investigation

Didn’t the media rail GWB for using references to 9/11?  Do they think this film help BO get re-elected?

Jay Carney:  “I would hope that as we face the continued threat from terrorism, the
House Committee on Homeland Security would have more important topics to
discuss than a movie.”

Yep.

Obama isn’t making the movie, Oscar winner Kathryn Bigelow is and usually when the military works with a film or TV series it is to make sure the military is represented fairly and accurately.
It is a common practice but King is making it political.  Surprise.

Do they think this film help BO get re-elected? 

Ofcourse..and it will.. it will be EPIC.. EPIC cinemascope and possibly in IMAX 3D!!!
Im looking forward to it and been privy to seeing the paper draw ups…

Supposedly it will show a white CIA type guy in the indiana jones(note cartoon version looks like brad pitt) role first finding clues and searching the globe for Obama’s birth certificate.. This will lead us into the middle east and through a few versions of the koran in a few middle east countries and wars to locate what may be clues back to the USA to locate the document of birth, but not before another adventure through Africa… on this journey and through out the 2 hours of Epic’ness will be flash backs of a man in the shadows hanging out behind the white house smoking and in dispair.. Needing a chopper ride to the next destination the CIA agent will inadvertently be the one to take down Osama Bin.. and is flown back to Hawaii to find the certificate buried under a tree just a few miles from where the birth of the anointed baby was first born, wrapped inside his grandmothers own night skirt… ending spoiler: a comedy impersonator actor playing obama walks down the red carpet to announce the death of Bin Laden while showing off the newly framed birth certificate and cracks a few jokes…turns, walks back outside and lights a cigarette revealing the brand “newport” and sighs… EPIC EPIC film.. can’t wait..Cinemascope 3-D!!!!!!!

yes, thats why the release right before the election

Even if classified information has been protected, has anyone made an in depth analysis of how this could possibly effect our troops who are deployed? When the film is released, the insane suicide bombers will definitely have some sort of a reaction. 
I don’t give a damn how it effects politicians.

This project was already under way prior to OBL’s death. That part will be added to the script to reflect real life events

This admin has no limits at how low their incompetency can go!

Except Bigelow has screwed over the Pentagon (and the military) in the past.  Did you even listen to the interview?

That was the old reaction when a guy with an R next to his name ran things. 

Hope & Change means Hollywood actually makes movies that make the military look good (as long as the Pres. looks good) even if the guys in the field are put in danger. 

A film depicting the raid that captured/killed UBL was underway before his death?  Sure, that makes all kinds of sense.  Were the film’s screenwriters dreaming up how it would go down and it miraculously happened the way they envisioned it?  Give me a break.

How sad is it that it took 10+ years for Hollywood to make a movie about either Iraq or Afghanistan which puts our troops in a positive light. 

Too bad they only reason Hollywood makes a film like this is so they can help Obama. 

Well, they were making movies about killing W.  So anything is possible. 

Is anyone really surprised at this?  Having said that, Obama is bonkers if he thinks that just because he didn’t stand in the way of our courageous seals and let them to their job that he’ll be rewarded with another 4 years to screw up our country. 

Last I checked, filmmakers were free to set premiere dates for their films to their liking, do republicans have a problem with people using their first amendment rights now or something?

Maybe if Conservatives weren’t so lizard brained and uncreative like slime molds, they might make a movie that people would care about seeing. The typical conservative brain structure is fundamentally ill suited to creative endeavors, as science has shown.

So how is Sarah Palin’s turd, errr movie I mean, doing?

Fear based responses dominate in conservatives who typically have bigger amygdalas, which is a more primitive part of the brain lower on the brain stem. The typical liberal has a more evolved Amygdala which is smaller, and this is one development among many that led modern man to defeat the Neanderthals in Europe.

People who were fearful ran away from the imposing neanderthals, while more curious people eventually found ways to best the brutes using their agility, speed and a newly evolved shoulder which had a very, very important advantage for sapiens over erectus: The ability to throw. The more primitive hinging on erectus’s shoulders rendered them physically incapable of throwing a spear any appreciable distance.

Being able to use ranged weapons more than erased any benefits in size and strength that neanderthals had over early groups of Homo sapiens. More developed speech centers also played a significant role, but the important thing is not being to afraid initially while you work out a strategy to deal with new challenges. The typical conservative mind is a step back in human evolution, with more stress put on more primitive areas of the brain.

Keep crying cuz cons ain’t ever gonna make a good movie, the deck is stacked against them upstairs.

i didnt say they couldnt do it, i just stated the reason why

Has PeeWee Herman been signed to play King Obama yet or will Whoopi Goldberg take the role ?

BFD never listens. He’s too busy running his mouth.

I wonder if Barack will be so cooperative when the film where he is rousted out of his White House bed in the middle of the night and ushered off to prison for ” HIGH ” crimes against this nation is being produced?

The right is just afraid this will be good publicity for Obama during an election season.  That’s all.

not afraid, but glad you admitted the reason it is coming out right before the election

I didn’t give it as the reason why the film is being released when it is.  Please learn to read.  I gave it as a reason why the right does not like it.

and seriously jealous that their conservative bretheren make cr*p films.

hey, i’m all for the ex-Mrs. James Cameron making a rocking action flick, proving (again) that she’s got it.

and yes, haters, Bigelow has been working on this film since 2008 (http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_movies_blog/2011/05/columbia-pictures-nabs-bigelow-and-boals-get-bin-laden-movie.html)

“…Bigelow’s Bin Laden film is said to be based on a real-life mission carried out some years ago (after 9/11) by military forces, to hunt down and kill the infamous Al Queda leader back when he was reportedly hiding in the mountainous border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Chances are good that the film won’t be changed drastically, since Bigelow informed Deadline that “this movie isn’t specifically about [Bin Laden]“; however, it’s all but guaranteed to note his death, via an epilogue of sorts…”  (http://screenrant.com/osama-bin-laden-movie-kathryn-bigelow-sandy-113358/)

…

so, RWers are hysterical over a film by Bigelow that she’s been working on for years..finally got greenlit by studio (wonder why?  maybe having the real OBL killed, perhaps?) and will be released later in 2012. 

call in the waaaaaahmbulance! 

well i am sorry, i didnt think you were that naive not to know the reason

facts suck, don’t they? 
you might want to try Teh Googel before you write your drivel.

yes.  it’s totally true.  based upon a PRIOR mission to kill OBL/UBL.  started it in 2008.

facts.  pesky little things aren’t they? 

suck it.  outrage fail due to premise fallacy.

Holywood helping their pal Obama….this is like a multimillion dollar donation to Team Obama because you know these liberal hollywooders are gonna claim Obama is God, was a member of the SEAL team, pulled the trigger, dumped his body overboard and all that stuff.  They will depict Obama has the planner, the implementer and the executioner.

Too bad; its a great story to be told but with Hollywood doing it for the sole purpose of helping Obama get reelected, it will always be a poison pill whose focus will be on theOne and not OBL..

and you Blackfungus spend too much of your time worrying about Newshouds and trolling the playgrounds. Idiot.

It makes since considering by that point next year, giving the order to kill Osama will be all Obama can run on. God knows it won’t be the strong economy and low unemployment numbers.

Well, I’m old and I’m a veteran, so I guess it’s natural for me to have that reaction.

Propaganda. I’ll avoid this film.

Sarah Palin was behind the documentary about her even though she and the producers claimed she wasn’t but you insisted without a shred of proof that she was. Obama may not be behind this, not sure he has time with all the vacations, golf and basketball, but those who want him back in the WH sure are. FYI who is the commander and chief of the military? Its the timing that is making it political.. .

Hell, it was progressive kitty’s idea.  Don’t ya know, we liberal commenters here at mediaite actually run the entire left wing of American politics with our hive mind

George thought strutting around in a flight suit would make you think he was a success….sadly, it probably did for people like you, michelle

Have you seen Hurt Locker?

well, they haven’t started two wars, ignore Al Queda until it blows up half of Manhattan, run massive deficits in boom times, hasten the end of American democracy with a terrible Recession and then nominate a dunce like Palin to succeed them, so these guys have a way to go until they touch the depths of the last Republican administration. 

ok tim, when you come back to reality, we can talk……have a nice time in fantasyland

Read anything about the film, braniac

Yeah, I’m sure it will play in every packed movie house in Afghanistan, where they barely have electricity, to Quetta, where no one cares.

Do conservatives know that the rest of the world is not contained in their tiny corner of the USA?  The Taliban is not watching CNN or perusing blogs

Perhaps the best part of this is the conservative reaction. The same conservatives who were thrilled to hear a movie was coming out to actually sway an election (The Real Hillary Clinton) are now angry when a ten year old story of how Bush let OBL escape from Tora Bora is given theatrical release.  Unlike the hillary movie, the aim here is to cash in. Like the Hillary movie, it is now protected by the wonderful SCOTUS decision in Citizens United, which conservatives love, since they represent a minority of the American people and need to spend millions on attack ads to win 50+1 elections.

The hypocrisy of championing “The Real Hillary Clinton” and the grotesque evisceration of American law which resulted and then kvetching over the release of a movie which tangentially mentions OBL’s death is a perfect distillation of conservative weirdness

Yeah, by winning an Oscar and telling the truth, instead of the lies the Pentagon wanted her to tell

michelle do you think before you press post…. its all good to throw jabs at one another hopefully mixed in with some or mostly insightful commentary..but your jokes are lame and your post are getting more and more bizarre …. i just want you to be great michelle no hard feelings..

um… The film was suppose to be about the HUNT for Bin Laden but then they got him and now it’s goes to his death. 

Nope. The film was only suppose to be about the HUNT for Bin Laden but then they killed him. Read up on it. The movie was already being discussed publicly before they killed Bin Laden. 

I’ll take your comments under advisement.  OK I did, now buzz off.

THEY HAVE SELECTIVE REPUBLICAN/TEATERRORIST MEMORY DON’TCHA KNOW! NONE OF THEM CAN REMEMBER THE GUY WHO WAS PRESIDENT FOR 8 YEARS BEFORE PRESIDENT OBAMA!

You libs continue to lie.  The Mission Accomplished sign was for the soldiers on that particular ship who had completed their mission.  Don’t let those facts get in your way though!!

If you had ANY intellectual honesty (which you don’t), you would. 

WERE YOU EVEN HERE FOR THE 8 YEARS OF BUSH AND COMPANY! GOD YOU PEOPLE ARE SO BLIND! WHEN YOU CAN SEE AGAIN WE CAN TALK ABOUT ALL THE INCOMPETENCE OF THE “BUSH YEARS”!

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY POPULAR MOVIE!

REPUBLICANS HAVE BEEN WRAPPING THEMSELVES IN THE AMERICAN FLAG MAKING
MONEY OFF OF 9/11 FOR YEARS! YOU PEOPLE ARE A JOKE! PEOPLE WANT JOBS! NOT
MORE BS BACKUP FROM REPUBLICAN/TEATERRORISTS!

HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA! GOD YOU WILL JUST BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU! HAHA ! NOW BUZZ OFF! HAHAH!

Sony Hosted Obama Fundraiser, Releasing Bin Laden Movie Before Election

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/studio-distributing-bin-laden-movie-hosted-obama-fundraiser_588177.html

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

I can’t wait to see it when it comes out!!

Think for a moment about the rippling effect of one little cartoon among the extremists. That reality illustrates my concern for the troops.
Now, check your premises.
Or was your post merely to display your distaste for conservatives?

You are such a dope.

Hey REP KING where are the jobs the republicans promised to produce in November 2010?? At least the movie will give some employment to out of work actors, set builders, etc….. One way for Obama to help private industry produce jobs without Taxpayer subsidies. If only the OIL companies and big Pharma would do the same.  Hey, Rep King, where are the jobs??
