If the Bush movie is called "W," the Rod movie has to be called "A"

The movie should be titled "Gov. Sleazy." and should star whoever wins the Razzie next year for Worst Actor in a Leading Role (as that would seem appropriate to me).

I have to agree. Established has nailed it.

I think we could go in a different direction. Make it a nature documentary, narrated by David Attenborough in that nasally English accent of his:

"The tousle--headed liarbird is a fascinating mimic; able to blend into its surroundings... whether it is a black church or farmyard or steelmill, nursing home or group of soccer moms... it blends in to become as one with its surroundings. Then, like the cunning predator it is, the liarbird captures the attention of it's chosen prey with a dazzling display, evolved from the mating dance. Once the prey is thus dazzled and hypnotized, the Liarbird makes off with all the spoils it can carry. And off it migrates, flying many miles over and over from the far-flung areas of it's elected territory, to it's favorite nesting area, repeating it's circle of life.

However, this unique species is now endangered. With massive over-exploitation of it's native habitat, the liarbird has become a victim of its own rapacious, excessive success. And the threat from it's predators; the low-lying weasels and sharp-eyed judiciars, is considerable. Prospects for the liarbird's future, once bright, are now very much in doubt. Perhaps in the near future, it's midwestern territory will no longer hear it's distinctive squawks of nontax pledges and being for the people. Another species, the Lesser Quinn, stands ready to take over its ecological niche with a more subtle and sustainable lifestyle.

"Establishment Republican" has it right. The character already exists...Blago is Michael Scott. Just change the title from "The Office" to "The Governor's Office"!
I can't stop laughing....

Steve Carell was born to play Rod Blagojevich, and in order to capture the essence, he really would not have to deviate much from his Michael Scott persona.

I envision a two Governors with Presidential ambitions on a road trip movie along the lines of Dumb and Dumber co-starring Horatio Sanz as Bill Richardson.

"Illinois Sky" where Blago (played by Liberace) opts for the Lucid Dream that allows him to believe he's still in office long after he loses his last election. Tech Support (cameos by various IL GOP leaders) keep popping into the Dream, however, trying to burst his Blago's bubble.

"Rudy" with Blago in the lead role because...well he wants to play make-believe as a Governor is known throughout the Country.

"Rudy II" with Blago in the lead role because...well, he wants to play make-believe that someone actually asked him to run for President.

"Blago Knows Best?" a rosy portrayal of Illinois political life with a full-size Elvis cardboard cut-out acting as Blago and Judy Baar-Topinka playing June Whitley acting as Margaret. A light-hearted film the entire family can enjoy as the patient and pragmatic Margaret (Judy) spends three hours trying to explain to Rod he can't spend more than the State takes in. Title includes a question mark like the original audio to intimate that Blago's role top guy in the State is dubious.

You all are good at this. So far I like VanillaMan and Will's suggestions best. But who will play the spin sisters!

How the heck did hunky Josh Brolin get pegged to be George W. ?

Carl Nyberg — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 18:53:22 -0000

John Cusack is about the right age and from Illinois. He doesn't have RB's hair, but with a wig.... Blagojevich is good with the making you feel he's sincere. I think Cusack could convey that.

How about "Marrying Opportunity" as a title?

JakeCP — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 18:52:22 -0000

The star would be a much older and a little fatter version of Tom Cruise. The movie would be called:

Gov. Blagojevich and the Chicago Blackhawks

Aw....come on Kevin. I didn't think I was that far out of line. And now Vanilla Man has since used the same title....I just thought there was a more appropriate star. Besides-u said to have fun and you've got to admit it was funny.
