Oliver Stone is Dancing With the Devil
Filed under: Politik
Oliver Stone has an odd interest in politics.
First he does his George Bush biopic W. and now he's doing a documentary about Venezuela's dictator "President" Hugo Chavez.
Stone said "It's about Chavez and the South American revolution."
Stone was present this past February with Chavez during the rescue of the hostages from the Columbian FARC group.
Though the documentary won't focus on the rescue, it will show "the opposition Chavez has faced at home and abroad, especially from the Bush administration, which has been vocal in its distaste for the populist socialism espoused by Venezuela's president."
Somehow we just know this flick is going to suck.
Especially since it's about Chavez!
Stone's been working on the movie for about six months already and hopes to have it ready for next year.

I love his movies!!!!
I don't like talking about politics, so………
It will be a love fest about Chavez.
Perez, please leave the political talk to adults. You sound like a 12 year old girl who caught her best friend kissing her boyfriend when you try to have an opinion on this stuff … and your opinion isn't even your own. You know shit when it comes to politics.
Hell, you didn't know (and still don't seem to know) that Hillary Clinton supports Don't Ask, Don't Tell and DOMA.
Get over yourself, you bobbleheaded douche.
Colombia's spelled with 2 O's
TONY WASSON IS IT YOU?????
I doubt that im actually first
With all the shit going on in the world.Do we really need this depressing propaganda!!!
Perez is not Columbian is Colombian…. and maybe i'll watch it since it is about the ignorant of Chavez
By the way, you fake Latino, Columbia is a university and a record label … NOT A COUNTRY!
Re: youre so gross – spaghetti kitty!
Chavez is hardly a revolutionary.
He was and is a voted in official, that the American government and the CIA try to depose of!
Stone is a pariah of the right wing agenda.
His film on the JFK assassination was a hoax to deflect the truth that the FED had him "put down".

YOU'RE SO CUTE DARLING!

Why would it suck any more than W did? Bush and Chavez are exactly the same kind of not-very-bright, easily led, ego driven character. They both had bizarre ideologue mentors (Bush/Cheney, Chavez/Castro). This new flick will just be "W" minus the coke problem. And I do agree with 'youre so gross', Perez can barely discuss the politics of the entertainment industry with any intellect, national and international politics are definitely not his millieau.
LG -
i am thrilled to be ambassador to canada. the position is beyond my wildest dreams.
i swear to the gods, that is my old boss, TONY WASSON!!!!! however, he doesn't have nearly as much power or money as the HC!!!! he wishes he did!!
Perez,
Will you get over yourself please? Bush and Chavez are exactly the same person. It's a documentary. What are you so afraid of? The reason why Cuban Americans are so despised in America is because they don't want to be here. They want to go back, pull another Iraq on America's dime, and throw everyone out into the streets again, and have on elite ruling class. You seem to be totally ignorant about voting in Cuba before Castro came in. People had guns put to their heads to vote how they told them to. The problem with places like Cuba, is that no one wants a middle of the road government. They want the extreme. You've never set foot in Cuba, and have been brainwashed by grandpa and grandma, who had all the money in the world and can't stand that darkie actually doesn't have to do the maid service for them anymore. Fuck you!
If you read up on why Bush doesn't like Chavez and vis versa you will find that the Bush Admin. is in the Wrong and the people of love Chavez. It's interesting. Watch Zeitgeist Addendum. It explains it completely.
Oliver Stone can suck Hugo Chavez' dick all night long and make a movie out of it and I STILL wouldn't watch his shitty movie.
No fucking sympathy for Chavez, he hangs out with the prez of Iraq who hates gays and jews. He called to have unlimited powers ala Castro. If the fact that Bush doesn't like him earns him love from Stone and Penn, they need to get their collective heads out of their asses.
Re: turbosnail – great fucking movie!
Perez this post is so absurd.
The only basis you have for calling Chavez a dictator is the fact that the US does not like him. The reason Bush doesn't is because he controlls 1/3 of our oil supply and doesn't like playing along with the United State's imperialism. The fact that you would call him a dictator is a prime example of ethnocentricity. Just because he is not like other leaders doesn't mean he is a dictator.
Chavez is democratically elected and despite the fact that he has been in power for so long, he is still IMMENSELY popular throughout Latin America.
Keep criticizing Chavez. Maybe eventually people will listen.
Its COLOMBIA not COLUMBIA!
Who do you have writing your posts?
PEREZ,
IT'S SPELLED C O L O M B I A N.
GET A DICTIONARY, DUDE.
I want that dumb ass Sean Penn to go live with this douche bag FOREVER!
I would have loved to have seen Chavez and Stone's face when they found out about the rescue of the Colombian hostages. The ironic thing is that the Colombian FARC a known terrorist organization is in part funded by Chavez. My question is will the rescue of these individuals be in this movie?
Will he mention that Chavez is a DICTATOR? For those of us who dislike Bush at least there's an end to his reign. Not so with Chavez, Mr. Stone.

Re: jealouscentaur –
Hey dumb ass he is a "dictator" he just doesnt have the official title.
Yes, he was ELECTED into office b/c he ran on the same kind of platform as Obama….he talked to the poor, the minorities and fed everyone a line of bull shit by telling them how great he was going to make their lives. Once he got into office he changed his tune and began screwing those same people over.
geeeee I wonder what Obama will do?
Oliver Stone is a piece of garbage.
You are so biased Piggy, the fact that this movie is about Chavez doesn't mean necessarily that it would suck big time… Stone is a wonderful director and I know he hanged out enough time with Chavez to know how to portray him in a box office film…
"the Columbian FARC group…" ColOmbia, Co-lOm-bi-a. O! O! O! O!
Re: Boogie8 – It HAS TO be Perez himself.
Perezito es Colombia
I can't believe all this ignorant people that haven't even been to Venezuela talk about a president. I am Venezuelan and lived there for 17 years and although Chavez is not the best president, he at least had enough balls to stand up politically against Bush (that's why there's so much negative propaganda in the US about him) and honestly Perez, leave politics to CNN or the New York Times.. focus on Paris Hilton, Britney and Wino.. because those are the things you do best.
CHAVEZ IS A GREAT FUCKING LEADER
HE IS A LEADER FOR THE PEOPLE
PARA NUESTRA COMUNIDAD!
YOU WOULDN'T KNOW BECAUSE YOU ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH THE 1% OF RICH AND THICK!
SCUMBAG. STAY TO WHAT YOU KNOW BEST.
ENTERTAINMENT. YOU'RE LACKING IN IT LATELY.
Chavez is no worse than Bush…. in fact, Bush has done worse than Chavez, and if you really read up on him.. Mr. Chavez makes MANY interesting points of interest… True, his 'professionalism' is a little crude, but, no one is perfect. I will definitely go see this!!!
If oliver stone portraits chavez as some sort of hero then stone is an asshole.
Perez is right, it will suck
"Oliver Stone has an odd interest in politics" Why odd? Just like YOUR odd interest in politics leading up to the election? It's not odd considering he was directly affected when he was in Vietnam. PEREZ YOU ARE A DOUCHE!!!!
And ps Mr. I Can't Research to Save My Useless Life: Most of Stone's movies have political overtones, i.e. Born on the Fourth of July, Nixon, the movie about the Cuban Missile crisis, etc., etc. You're so fucking clueless dude, it's almost unbelievable that people like this site.
This piece of shit is Castro's bitch they both need to DIE already!!!
Over the years, I've come to believe that Oliver Stone really hates the US, and admires any foreigners who do the same. Perhaps, if Chavez and Venezuela are so great, Stone should move there.
Re: ctdude – I love you…..lol…..
.
at least i do if that is really you in your avi…..
Funny Perez, how you seem to gloss over the dictator and jis oil buddies that run your shit hole of a backwards "Christian" county. You really don't know shit about Venezuela. Turn off the propaganda machine you are fed your lies from (your media, your politicians) and educate yourself. You just come across looking really stupid when you call Chavez a dictotator, but that asshole Bush is and was a dictator. You also may want to read some real academics on Venezuela. But you probably won't. Too bad that you cannot quite distinguish the Florida right wing Cubans, from the people frighting for justice in Venezuela. Like Hugo Chavez. Stick to what you know - the ass backwards idiots who run that festering pool of hate called the US of Eh.
Why do you put "president" in quotes, as if he were not democratically elected? Just because the elite, rich folks don't like him doesn't mean he didn't become president in a fair manner just like most of our presidents…
Re: cherimckeown – Hmm maybe you should read the papers more. Then you would realize that he is still really popular and infact the country just voted to extend his governance. Or even…maybe you should finish school and then you can learn to think critically instead of just calling everyone "dumb ass"
Chavez is a terrorist!! Chavez was supporting the Colombian Farc!! and Perez, I'm Colombian and I hate it when even hispanics can't even spell Colombia right. There is no u in ColOmbia.
Like all émigrés from Cuba, you feel the need to hate everyone who fights the american empire. Chavez is good for the poor of his country, he wants to get the rich to share, is that wrong ? The President of the USA should do the same, use Chavez as a role model. Viva Chavez !
Leave it to B Movie Director Stone to do a white wash movie about the despot Chavez. Will Stone talk about the people Chavez has had murdered to protect his dictatorship? The looney leftists here in the states look at despot Chavez as some kind of hero. Some one needs to take this degenerate out!
Hey JEALOUSCENTAUR,
I do read the paper & I know people that have first hand knowledge of the situation. Just because he is popular does not mean that he is GOOD. Perfect example OBAMA. I'm sure that the people that did vote for him did so out of FEAR. You dont know anything about my schooling. I will once again call you a "DUMB ASS"
Oh come on… What revolution!… Chavez is just a Simon Bolívar WANNABE!!!… He's C R A Z Y… He has hurt this country too much…
Why is Oliver Stone making a documentary on Chavez?? Why are all these americans (movie stars and directors) supporting this idiot.
That's exactly what he wants "ATTENTION". And people, he is a little dictator, he's Castro's little apprentice. Chavez is an idiotttttt
i´m giving Mr. Stone the benefit of the doubt hopefully the movie won´t be a propaganda film for Hugo Chavez.
I'll pass! This guy's choice….Chavez!Please the guy is a bigger clown,that Bush!
its weird to hear you say it's gonna suck, why? because people here don't care about Venezuela. it's not a reality because you're not living in it. there is a lot to be learned about the Chavez ways. I don't agree with it… but we should be educated on it.
So Honestly ur an IDIOT and you cn't spell seriously grab a dictionary or just proof read … kkk??? " of the hostages from the Columbian FARC group"
it's COLOMBIAN FARC …. as from the country in South America Colombia not Columbia !!!! SERIOUSLY !!!
and leave the politics to smart people would you.
NOT THAT I LIKE CHAVEZ BUT ANY BAD PRESS about this man will be interesting to watch lets see if they can pull it off or if they are like you and no absolutely nothing about international affairs or how to spell them .
