Death of a President

Ever wondered what would happen if someone shot George W. Bush? Watch Death of a President.

thankfully, there are also legitimate docudrama people.... based on facts; and attempted smear by the Clinton administration; yet unwaivered, and based largely on those involved, and the 911 commission report.

free to watch! how cool is that? Thankyou ABC!

I saw part of Path to 911. It was vaguely interesting, but it went on too late at night. It was pretty good quality.

I'm not entirely sure Death of a President was intended to be remarkably realistic, because realism would have been impossible. More for entertainment value, I think.

well, TV is about ratings, and ratings are for advertising ;)

the curious thing abou the ABC docu drama is that there are no advertisements...

They had advertisements in Australia, but it was shown by a commercial channel, so I expected them.

Too late. It's already been bought for distribution.

if the server is fast enough, you can watch it comercial free

BTW, ABC/Disney/AOL is a comercial channel here as well ;)

Very interesting thanks!

^Perhaps. But it's pointless to have a movie about the fallout from a president's death without the president actually dying.

I know of so many things that are pointless but interesting. Biggest being the Da Vinci Code :mrgreen:

Fair enough, but the movie is called Death of a President, which implies, well, the death of a president.

I get your point Mattk, I was just implying about other pointless things,
but your right :wink:

well, if you can't see that Colbert is the fake news wiht a comedy sping to be enjoyable to all parties; then you really are blind.

first.... the film was in fact previewed by both republicans/democrats/ tons of people... how do you think the Former Clinton Administration found out, and didn't want to look bad.

Clinton is on tape saying that he "let him go because he didn't have the justification to hold Bin Laden" which was after there was already proof of the Embassy bombing was him, and the 93 WTC was him.

Sandy Berger illegally took, destroyed, and modified documents out of the Library of Congress.... why?

think there was just some republican in teh 911 commission recomending guidence for the film? Think again.

The extra "information" came from people on the ground when that happened... no matter what some politician wants to say not to discredit thier own place in History.

watch teh film, and find the lies, will you? I know its hard... perhaps it is too hard.

Any time you guys are placed with finding them, all you do is whine whine whine.... when the michael Moores of the world do it, We find those innacuracies, and publish them.

try again, fringe liberal... you guys really are so far out there, you believe anything because its your want that Bush is the root of all evil... and anything that makes him look bad MUST be true, right?

try again, man

I take it you didn't see the disclaimer at the beginning, which said that the film was not a documentary.

Here's a film review on Death of a President, which is what I made this topic for.

I hope they dont change the script b/c of some fools that cant distinguish the difference between reality and TV. Plus, as Mattk said, the title is Death of a President be kinda pointless if it never happened.

24 was fairly close to killing a President and, in fact, killed an Ex-Pres on their show, not sure if they got compliants or not on that.

That was a fictional President - don't think it matters so much, seeing as the movie refers to the serving President.
