I saw an ad for the DVD release of the anti-Iraq screed Lions for Lambs. While the ads for the theatrical release made it pretty clear it was a pedantic talkee film, the ad for the DVD played it up like its an action movie about heroic troops under fire because I guess they thought that might trick some people into watching it.

Here’s an idea for Hollywood: Why don’t you actually make a movie about heroic troops in Iraq and then you won’t have to trick people into seeing your crappy films.

That’d probably make too much sense.
