BACKGROUND  Moon Gaze Pictures is currently producing the feature-length Being Jon Stewart. Some critics have gotten snarky, saying that this movie is taking so long to produce that it needs to be called Was Jon Stewart, but we are still taking less time than Bee Movie did to finish, and they had $150 million to play with! That is approximately $150 million more than we are spending.

STORYLINE  Oscar Leibowitz is having a bad day, but every day seems to be a bad day. He is also a big fan of TV's top funnyman, but Oscar is not the only one thinking too much about Jon Stewart. A pseudo-anarchist cell is out to “Stop the Lies!” and bring down the television personality. Oscar gets inside the head of his idol, but only to bring on misadventure after misadventure. The pseudo-anarchists fail to topple Stewart, but will Oscar the big Stewart fan be the funnyman’s undoing?
