J Edgar Hoover vs The Iron Lady


Two of the under lit but most controversial political figures in the Western world square off in the race for that 'coveted' Oscar. These two pictures are shoe ins for Best Picture and Best Actor (Leo DiCap) and Best Actress (Merryl Streep). It is not surprising that J.Edgar has much more marketing momentum than The Iron Lady. Warner's has packaged the most drooled after Actor in contemporary cinematic history at the top of his game I may add, and The Spirit of the West directing and composing the musak! On the other hand, The Iron Lady is a risk The Weinstein Company took. I absolutely love it. As Margret Thatcher makes Condy Rice and Dick Nixon look like Jackie Onassis and JFK respectively. She was a cold hearted bitch. I will be seeing this, again, The Iron Lady will be geared toward older audiences and will probably be shown in selected release for awhile, and released worldwide right after... Let me check if I'm right.... I am. The US Release is on December 16th and the UK release is January 16th 2012. It is distributed by TWC and 20th Century Fox domestically, and Pathe Internationally. This means, Canada may be hardpressed to catch this while it's fresh, but only time will tell. On the other side of the Atlantic, J.Edgar has major financial backing with it's distribution outlets. Warner Brothers. I probably don't need to tell you when this opens, but it has already opened in LA and will release wide on screens near you on the 9th of November. Nothing like Political Thriller season for the cold and dreary, the way people are sharply dressed it looks like any one of us are running for something... I do not condone sleeping with aides. But if the time is in dire, and you know, she's down and both willing to keep our mouths shut, why not? But this never happens. No sex policy ever. Celibacy until victory! Enjoy these two pictures, and I'll be updating with production notes and such when I get some time! Iron Lady shot on location in London.

Asleep @ the wheel. But! The Weinstein Company is in the last Stretch to get their movie out and seen on FRIDAY, THIS MEANS TODAY IS JANUARY 11 SO, THIS FRIDAY IS? THIS FRIDAY. HINT: TAKE A SPECIAL LADY OUT TO THIS MOVIE AND MAKE SURE SHE PAYS FOR IT TO SHOW YOU HOW IRON SHE IS. MAYBE SHE MAY EVEN BUY YOU POPCORN? OR AT LEAST A DRINK. CONCESSION PRICES WITHSTANDING, HOPEFULLY YOUR BEHAVIOR HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING, NOT OUTSTANDING
THIS IS ALL.
END TRANSMISSION!
I'LL GET INTO HARD DETAILS ON HOW TWC DID EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO GET THIS SELECT THEATER RELEASE WORLDWIDE. 
THANKS, 
CM.
Well... Celibacy alert may be taken down. As I can call in a V for Victory...
