New biopic on W, will it do well?

Doubt it. See link below:

This is a supposed "biography" done by Oliver Stone, who I am sure will be very fair when portraying the sitting American President. The same president he personally has called the following: worlds biggest terrorist, murderer, moron, idiot, opportunist, spoiled brat, re tarted etc.....

Yes I am sure this film will depict the life with facts rather than rumors or how he feels about this man.

When will Hollywood get the message that these films DO NOT MAKE MONEY....Let's count them shall we?
1. StopLoss
2. Jarhead
3. The Reagans
4. Lions for Lams-this one was a big hit
5. Rendition
6. Constant Gardner-this one was aimed a little more at Briton but still counts
7. Valley of Elah

This list does go a lot longer but I think you get what I am trying to say and there are also TV shows that have failed. Maybe the country doesn't like these movies b/c we don't need Hollywood actors, who if you can find one these days that have ever done anything for their country you probably can't count it on one hand, to tell us how bad a country is where they make millions of dollars for four months work and we are supposed to pay our hard earned money to go see them preach to us????

I read in an article where the highest grossing films were family pics, for example: This Christmas, while not the highest money make in total take in, it did make around 33 million in theaters but didn't cost but 3-5 million to make and distribute. America wants movies that make us feel good and that our family can see or that just makes us laugh. We don't want preaching.
