NO TIME, TALENT or MONEY for so much
as a glance in the direction of the 20th
anniversary of the Tiennamen Massacre AND
the urgently important 60th anniversary of
the KOREAN WAR —this year?

-BUT!

LOTS and LOTS of everything available
for still more pointless, cokeheaded
cultural incest as it happens!

MEANWHILE, we wonder just how much underpaid,
unserviced, illegal labor the long rich DeNiro
is himself ‘using’ to run his Tribeca restaurant?

LOL

Not really. I’m writing about several actions that take place during the same day that is Obama Day. The main character happens to look like Obama some what. But his name is Dante. He’s a part time poet and full time mobster. The Obama association comes from the main character’s desire to CHANGE his life around. But several obstacles will stand in his way.

oh so your writing a character with the first name Obama, but has nothing to do with the factual character obama himself

No apology’s necessary Rick. The truth of the matter is: I tried to make the movie about Obama but I simply don’t have it in me to write extensively about a famous person, no matter who he/she is. I’m not the groupie type nor did I want to make a parodie. I’m at my best when I’m developing a fictitious character or at least a person that died long long ago.

The movie is titled “Obama Day” because the action takes place on what is “unofficially” regarded as obama day (Jan.20). It’s sort of like with the movie “Independence day” where the action took place on the 4th of July. Or groundhog day… You know the rest.
As for the presidency of Obama itself. It’s not for me comment on that issue. I’m just a guy who dreams of making fun movies for people to enjoy. And no. “Obama Day” is not a parodie either. Just a Rodriguez/Tarantino style kick butt flick… Hopefully.

your making a movie called obama day? oh geez. save your money and your talent and write about someone who deserves the honor of a film behind the person. not some stupid man who has lower ratings then bush (YES BUSH) did this early in his presidency….why? because Obama is a moron.

This is bitter-sweet news to me. Because I’m casting this movie called: “OBAMA DAY”. A Rodriguez/Tarantino style black comedy. And I was considering Danny Trejo for the baddass role. Since, he’s doing the machete movie, he won’t be available for my movie. I wish him the best, though. I’ll definitely see “MACHETE”.
