Brad Pitt is Dad Of The Year according to a Life & Style Father’s Day poll. "He even skipped the Cannes Film Festival in anticipation of Shiloh’s birth," said L&S’s editor in chief Debra Birnbaum. Above: Brad was spotted chatting on his cell phone this past Monday from the balcony of his Malibu mansion. And then just yesterday, Brad whizzed down the streets of Los Angeles on his custom-made motorcycle with a pal of his. More pictures in the gallery!

Pitt Outbids DiCaprio
It was a battle between Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, and Pitt emerged the winner.
The production labels of the two stars — Pitt’s Plan B and DiCaprio’s Appian Way — were engaged in a competitive bidding war through their respective studios, Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, over an upcoming zombie horror book by Max Brooks titled "World War Z."
By Wednesday afternoon, the dust settled with Plan B/Paramount winning the movie rights.
In 2003, Brooks wrote "Zombie Survival Guide," which explained in great deadpan detail how to survive a supposedly impending zombie apocalypse. The book went on to become a surprise cult hit.
"World War Z" also tackles the zombie genre but is set 10 years after a great global zombie epidemic and is a serious oral history of the zombie future told from many perspectives around the world. Crown Publishing is putting the book out in the fall.
The galleys of the book went out around town late last week, but interest took awhile to ignite. By the time execs finally realized they had a potential "tentpole" franchise, the battle lines were drawn between Plan B and Appian Way.
The bidding went back and forth between the two into Tuesday night and carried over into Wednesday. Sources say the rights sold for six figures, with the deal going to seven figures if the film actually gets made.
Brooks was a writer on "Saturday Night Live" from 2001 to 2003 and did voice work on the "Justice League" cartoon series.
There are said to be no hard feelings between the companies, and DiCaprio is starring in "The Departed," the Martin Scorsese crime drama that Pitt and his Plan B are producing. [THR]

Good Night to all my fellow BAMZS Fans, see you all manana
# 692 | fanYou know I say such things and I get the evil eye lol and especially when include Angelina. The difference with her is instead of fullblown producer (I see joint ventures with Brad), her main concentration will be on her family, and her humanitarian work. Sorry, but I give her maybe 5 more yrs were making movies are concerned…if that long.jpf
# 767 | Alexanderinano offense to Carrot Top fans, but i’m not a fan. i think i’ve seen him on Leno, he used a lot of props. thanks for the suggestions anyways. i’ll tell you all about the trip. i just know i’ll have a ton of BAMZS threads to catch up on. in a span of 7 days i’ll have graduation, Disneyland, followed by the 4 days of Vegas.
# 774 | Orchid I despise the moniker Brangelina! It’s Brad & Angelina or Jolie-Pitt, or BP/AJ….jpf
# 766 | me yeah it probably is a Ducati. man i wished Brad adopted me and gave me a Ducati too.
# 779 | Ciev How did the final go? I have every confidence you aced it, but did it still produce sweat on your brow….ah, those were NOT the days! lol.jpf
Thanks African Girl. I don’t keep up with celebrities that much but I do like Angelina. I love that she loves Africa. And I think she and Brad look nice together. By the way I’m a "sister."
# 769 | Maniston That is like my favorite scene so far. She did NOT want to stop! The look she gives his lips after they finally pull apart tells the story….that kiss was real, but I don’t think they planned it to be so. I think they were totally outdone by how attracted to each other they were from the start. I mean come on…..Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie?! in love?! Nah, not possible……yeah right, just ask Shiloh Nouvel if it’s not possible :) jpf
# 784 | Original jpf I just got done watching the scene again. The look on Brad’s face is priceless. That kiss was definitely real and I agree it took them both by surprise. Can you imagine what their first off camera kiss must have been like? The Hotness! I may have to re-read Rica’s fanfic. LOL
# 782 | Original jpfso i’m a bio major, it was an anthro final not related to my major, it was my very last one, had about 3 hours of sleep, just let me get it over with already! usually we have to wait about a week for grades, but i found out i got an A in the class the next day so yeah i aced that final. thanks for asking.

But as always….. true to form..and keeping me in good humor! # 776 | COLD HARD MATH | I am not so sure they arre married in the babylon world..but they truly are married in the Seat of the Soul. Of course I would love what you say to be true for the sake of the masses. LOL!# 769 | Maniston | I have been looking for that…….. where is it on the DVD? I saw it on ell’s video but couldn’t find it on the DVD. Pelase tell! # 757 | Zaiyana | Hi! Thanks for your insight to my point on our young girls……and thank you for your work as a teacher and mentor. My family/children and husband, are also part Native American and I catch many Native American babies in my job…Unfortunaely not much to do with computers so I am usually behind. Sorry I missed you. Hope to see you around and have a great time at the cabin. Wish I could go. Do you live in the SW? # 753 | Ciev |Congrats on that test and have a great time in Vegas!!l Passing through l As always…………busting my gut girl!! You rock me into laghter everyday!! JA could benefit with a few days with you. LOL!!!!!!!Glad for your Shaque and the HEAT!! My man hasn’t left that ESPN since I have seen him today. 2-2. Won’t be seeing him or you much Sunday huh?
# 787 | Moi JadeThe wedding kiss is on disc 2 under confidential files. Its an easter egg and you have to do a little work to find it. Once you click on the confidential file link you will see a recipe box with index cards. One is marked confidential. Keep scrolling up until you are able to highlight this index card. The Wedding Kiss option will appear. I wonder if this is a little gift from Doug Liman to BAMZS fans.
# 787 | Moi Jade -disc 2, click on domestic violence, you will see a blank lock box, below that you will see 2 column of deleted scene, click right to chinese laundry, click the up button, it will goes up to the recipe box, the word confidential will turn green, click enter, you will see you have unlock the lock box…good luck
# 785 | Maniston She just kinda melts into him, and it’s like it hits him "oh yeah, we’re in a scene….uhhhhh, I think I’m supposed to turn to those people standing there uhhhhhh, what the hell just happened?! LOL!jpf
finding that kissing scene sounds like going on some spy mission to get to the treasure chest.
Goodnight BAMZS fans. Hold down the fort and keep the haters at bay.
