Who's your favorite movie president? Here are some of mine:

  • President Harrison Ford, Air Force One. The terrorists' plan didn't count on one thing: a 60-year-old man!

  • President Rock Hudson, World War III. One hand on The Button, the other hand... well, I won't spoil it!

  • President E.G. Marshall, Superman II. Sure, he was Zod's bitch, but what are you gonna do!

  • President Kevin Kline, Dave. Everything would be okay if Kevin Kline was president!

  • President Michael Douglas, The American President. That Aaron Sorkin sure has a thing for confusing titles!

  • President Bill Pullman, Independence Day. The aliens' plan didn't count on one thing: atrocious screenwriting!

  • President Jack Nicholson, Mars Attacks. I never did see that one, but I'll bet I know what he was like in it!

  • President William Shatner, Oval Awesome: White House Fury. This movie hasn't been "greenlighted" yet, but I'll let you know when I finish the script!

Howzabout President Jeff Bridges in The Contender? Not only does The Dude get elected to the highest office in the land, he nominates a superfreak to be his veep.

(Though I've got to say, I imagine that any gangbang featuring Joan Allen would probably be a pretty staid gangbang.)

Max Frost, the 20-something President in "Wild In The Streets"

"Eventually, Frost runs for the presidency. Winning in a landslide, he issues his first presidential edict: All oldsters are required to live in "retirement homes" where they are forced to ingest LSD"

President Donald Pleasance, Escape from New York.


A C-list, whiny, weaselly, bald, British president? Best evar.

I used to like the cartoon Super President when I was a kid.

Let's not forget the President in the Sum of All Fears where Harrison Ford gave him a smackdown

I can't believe I forgot these! Especially Escape from New York.
