"I think it's too easy to find a villain out of the headlines and to then repeat that villainy again and again and again. You know, traditionally, America has always looked to scapegoat someone as the boogie man."
--Edward Zwick
I actually had a different post tonight, but given the recent revelation that Osama Bin Laden has finally been killed, I felt there was a more pressing story to talk about.
Who's got the movie rights?
You know as soon as this leaked out, Warner Bros, Universal, MGM, Pixar, Miramax even Disney got in on the bidding war. It's just a matter of time before this story makes it to the big screen. And so dear readers. This is my Snakes on a Plane moment (seriously, this time I the pun was not intended). I am going to follow this story as it develops, because you know it will develop. We are going to take this one all the way to the red carpet baby!!!
In the meantime let's have a little fun. Who will play Osama Bin Laden? Who will play Barak Obama and give the final monologued speech as they drag Bin Laden's dead body out of his multi-million dollar compound?
My votes are for Sacha Baron Cohen to play Bin Laden the resemblance is already halfway there and with a little more makeup I think he could do it. Plus he is already taking on serious roles as Freddie Mercury in that upcoming biopic so I think he can approach this role rather well.
As for Obama? I say give it to Harry Lennix (he was the ornery counterpoint to Laurence Fishburn in The Matrix: Reloaded. The dude looks just like our president. It's too easy. 
What does everyone else think? Will there be a Bin Laden biopic? Who is going to play Bin Laden? Who would play Obama? Tell me, tell me I want to know!!!
