And...a four hour 18 minute movie on Che that completely skips over his incidents of mass murder, gulaging of homosexuals, etc. BECAUSE WE MUSTN'T GET DISTRACTED FROM THE REAL ISSUES!
If we're lucky, maybe this will cause the old Omar Sharrif laughfest to get released. Probably not, but I can dream.
PEGGY: I don't see how having a girl on the team would ruin it. Did a woman judge ruin the Supreme Court?
HANK: Yes, and that woman's name was Earl Warren.

Imagine if you'd actually seen the movie. It's as hilarious as it sounds.

But he was handsome, and had that "pirate thing" going for him! Cute, one-eyed, elitist mass-murderers can be given a free pass - as long as their political beliefs fall on the proper side of the spectrum - can't they?

I think that in the spirit of the franchise merging that's been so hot as of late they should make Che vs. Pinochet.

On second thought maybe it should be Che vs. Evita.

| I wouldn't watch a 4hr. 18. movie on anything, much less a historically incorrect portrait of Che Gueverra. How about Che versus Chavez? |

C'on, Chavez is a walking caricature. If it wasn't for his dictatorial ways he wouldn't even seem menacing. And he overacts like a maniac, I wouldn't stand more than 5 minutes of his act.
Che at least looked good on T-shirts. Even such a small feat is too much for Chavez to achieve. He's the Maradona of politics. |

Nah, Madonna is too dignified for Chavez, he's more the Britney Spears of politics.

Oh, sorry, I read too fast. I don't even know who Maradona is.

Ok, he's the crazy Agentinian footballer. He probably is a better fit for Chavez.
