There has been much back and forth on the movie 300. First off, obviously Leonides is Bush. Who else in the modern world has the courage of a Leonides to lead a small group into such a dangerous area, and can’t get the troops he needs from the namby-pamby Congress (liburls who are correctly portrayed as deformed), who leads by example and suffers just as much as any other man he is leading, who stays with his small group to the end eventhough his countrymen all cut-n-run? Also, 300 is all about defeating the Persians which is exactly what we are currently doing in Iraq today.
But, in all the hoopla that is surrounding Bush/300 many have forgotten other recent movies which are also clearly about Bush. Here is a synopsis:
Alexander (2004) – This is the easiest and best movie in which Bush is evident. The title character of this movie, Alexander, most closely resembles Bush in real life. Again we have Bush fighting and defeating hordes of Persians like in 300, but this movie, it is clearly shown what would happen if Bush was allowed to win and not constantly stabbed in the back by such non-military wimps, like Jack Murtha and Wes Clark.
Alexander defeats the entire Middle East and beyond, in a few hours. Until he cries, which Bush only does when a traitorous cameraman tries to show Bush in a bad light.
Additionally, Bushes father was thwarted in his efforts to defeat the Middle East, just like Alexanders father was thwarted. And how were Phillip and Bush 41 thwarted in their efforts? By betrayal and murder. Bush 41, just like Phillip, was “murdered” by internal traitors who undermined his re-election bid. Alexander is also a real man’s man like that Cpl Matt Sanchez.
Finally, Alexander dies, dream unfulfilled and his empire collapses because of infighting, which is what America is going to have to face when Bush finally leaves office, and Iraq is not standing shoulder-to-shoulder with America because of America not standing behind Bush to the ends of the earth.
Troy (2005) – Bush is layered in this movie. Jesus really inspired that Homer fellow to write a prescient book about Bush. Bush’s qualities are split between Achilles, Hector and Paris. This was done, because while Paris clearly is Bush in leading the nation and surviving, he is named after a French city which, Bush clearly hates. Hector shows one must defend your country at any cost, including your life, just like Bush did in Vietnam and today. But, Paris shows Bush’s smarts by having him survive defending his country, by not going, just like Bush did in Vietnam.
Achilles represents the raw power Bush has at his hands, which is only blunted by the traitorous Agamemnon in his midst who thinks he is the real leader, just like Dems in Congress think they should control War. As if it was written into the Constitution or something… Sadly, Achilles is shot by Paris, which may seem strange since they are both Bush, but actually represents Bush firing Rumsfeld.
In the end, while Troy falls, Paris lives to see another day, which may parallel America after Bush leaves office, but is no way due to the policies of Bush. Kingdom of Heaven (2005) – This movie, wow! To encapsulate the Bush in his Duality is fantastic in this one. First off, let me say I was thrown off by having Bush emerge from France, as Balian, although the director, Scott Riddles or something, did a fantastic job of compensating for the French Connection by having the lead actor speak in such a peculiar accent.
Anyway, Bush is clearly represented trying to establish the Kingdom of Heaven just like in real life. But not only does he defend Jerusalem as Balian, spot on, the director choose to have Bush’s adversary be the only man who could hope to cope with Bush. None other than Bush, as Saladin. This is genius, because just like Saladin, Bush is making the world better for muslims. And Saladin was a Kurd, which is who Bush likes the most of the muslims.
In the end, Jerusalem’s problems are not solved by either Balian or Saladin, or Richard couer’de Leon (who is a thinly disguised Tony Blair), which is sadly what is going to happen in Iraq. But, it is clear that the problems in Jerusalem weren’t caused by those in the movie, just like the problems in Iraq were not caused by Bush.
Superman Returns (2006) - More like Jesus or Bush returns. Clearly making money of the glorious re-election of Bush, this movie shows us the softer and paradoxically stronger side of Bush. He is an impervious man of steel, but he also has doubts. Fortunately, he is able to dramatically overcome his doubts and defeat John Kerry (portrayed as Lex Luther) and save the world.
Fantastic Four (2004) – These four are either: Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Rove or the great speakers of truth and wisdom: Limbaugh, Coulter, Hannity and O’Reilly.
The Patriot (2000) – Uh, hello? 2000, the Year Bush Won hands down the Presidency, a lone man struggles to refound a great land just like Mel Gibson.
The Constant Gardener (2005) – I have not seen this one, but by the title I can only assume it is referring to The Bush and his manly exercise at the Crawford ranch.
I know you all must be thinking the Passion was about Bush, but while it might be tempting to read that into the script, it is about Jesus.
Well, I hope everyone has gotten the true depth and meaning from these epics, since it is clear from my deconstruction of them that they are all centered on and inspired by Bush. Thank you Jacques Derrida.*
*-crap I just thanked a Frenchmen!!!
