Papa Pitt high on flying, Shiloh and Angelina, Part 2

LOS ANGELES—WE continue our column (part one appeared last Friday) on Brad Pitt who granted his first interview with us since the media frenzy over his relationship with Angelina Jolie began.

As he settled into a chair in a meeting room at the Universal Hilton, Brad said, “It’s been a long time. It’s nice to see you all. I’ve got three kids (now).” He joked, “You guys do anything?”

Then he proceeded to give a remarkably candid interview, with not a single “no comment” reply. As we wrote in the previous column, the only time he hesitated was when he was lobbed the question, “What are you good at?” “I really don’t know how to answer that,” he answered. He was being modest, of course.

He’s getting very good at acting, as he shows in his latest outing, Alejandro González Iñárritu’s “Babel,” a magnificently realized film that manages to make all four interrelated stories in Morocco, Tunisia, Japan and Mexico equally riveting.

The famous ex of Jennifer Aniston is also getting very proficient in co-producing films that are being buzzed about as contenders in the coming awards season: “The Departed,” which has critics raving and beating each other for the most number of superlatives they can heap on Martin Scorsese’s finest film in many years; and “Running With Scissors,” the adaptation of Augusten Burroughs’ bestselling memoir with Annette Bening reportedly excellent as a would-be poet and mother.

At the press con, there was a touching earnestness and sincerity in Brad’s face as he answered a question about why he and “Angie” decided to have their baby, Shiloh Nouvel, born in Africa.

With your interest in architecture, do you explain to your kids how to build strong structures when you play Lego with them?
I try to steer them to that direction. I hope we get a little engineer in there somewhere. I heard this great story of a father whose son drew this crazy structure. The son said it was a tree house so the dad made a tree house that looks exactly like the drawing. I thought that was a really nice story. I hope to be able to do that, too, someday.

Angelina said that motherhood has not stopped her from taking causes that are even wilder—those that urge her to take more risks. Do you share that sort of wildness with her?
Yes, unconventional, I would say. Your own personal experience and growth don’t have to stop at being a parent. It can be enhanced in some way, and your experience becomes fuller.

How has your celebrity status affected your humanitarian causes?
Of course, it helps because there’s an automatic spotlight on us. In fact, it’s hard to get out of that spotlight. It occurred to me a couple of years ago and I said it then: Since I couldn’t get out of the spotlight and there were so many people who are in need, maybe if I can be a conduit and deflect from myself.
So it’s been a great help and it opened many doors. We have access to meeting a lot of great minds who can give us a very informed education on a subject. It’s important that if you take on something, you stick with it because Hollywood is known for being flighty. Hollywood has a reputation of being self-serving sometimes. So it better be something that you believe in enough to stick with it.

Certainly, there have been (unfortunate) stories in the past because of this perceived idea, which is truly not the case. But a couple of bad examples can color the whole thing. You can do more harm to the cause. You can actually cause people to turn away and do exactly the opposite of what you set out to do.

What irritates you the most in this world, outside your personal sphere?
That list is long (laughter). Our country was founded on freedom. Anything that becomes a hindrance to that freedom I find shocking and shortsighted. The thing that irritates me the most is not being able to just live my life and let others live their lives as they wish instead of being threatened in some ways. I’ll give you two to keep it short. Second is our shortsighted foreign policy. This film speaks about that in the sense of getting back to this idea that we’re all the same. I am not hugging a tree and holding up a white flag but I am for true understanding and the willingness to understand others’ positions.

Can you talk about the media circus at the height of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”?
If there was a real conversation about what was going on, instead of this push to sensationalize and make money off that, I would have made myself available. But at that point, it was a no-win situation. I knew there would be a time when things would calm down and I could speak more freely and it wouldn’t be abused.

That (the media circus) was not about real journalism. To me, journalism is an unbiased telling of the facts. It’s not about speculation and sensationalism. I rail against the invention of “news.” It says something about our culture.

How has the last two years been for you?
Since I became a father and turned 40, the direction that I’d personally like to take has become clearer. Before, in my younger days, I was more of a drifter. I’d try many things on. I’d try anything. Now there’s real pride in understanding myself, what’s important to me, my own values and acting on those values.

This film probably parallels your passion for cross-culturalism, especially with the international breadth of the cast.
What’s extraordinary is the level of acting. We have people here who will headline a movie and we have adults and kids here who have never acted before in their lives, yet you cannot distinguish the difference. It’s extraordinary on Alejandro’s part to cast these people without any acting experience and to get that depth. The Moroccan kids and the one who played their father were extraordinary. In the scene where Cate’s (Blanchett) getting sewn up, that was actually the local veterinarian (laughter) doing it. He brought this realism. Yet the performances are all equal and there’s no story that stands out above any other.

Can you comment on how adoption from different cultures can help heal the world?
A few years ago, I said this and got into trouble. I just wish everyone would screw everyone so then we’d only have one color. Or we’d have so many colors that we couldn’t keep track and then it really wouldn’t matter (laughter). But that’s an obnoxious way of saying it. On the adoption front, we’re talking about the difference between a kid having a future and death. That was probably the case with our daughter (Zahara) and probably the same case with Maddox as well. That supersedes any other argument. I would like to see more of it instead of this idea of separatism which I rail against.

Africa has a special significance for you now. What are your impressions when you first landed in that continent?
It’s so vast and so different. There are places that are extraordinarily, beautifully haunting. The first thing I was struck by was the lack of opportunity for the people. Remember (the late comedian) Sam Kinison’s joke in the 1980s, which I thought was funny at the time but was really destructive? He said, ‘You live in a f—g desert. Move, move.’ We truly do not understand how fortunate we are with where we were born on the longitude, latitude scale and what a difference that can mean in the course our life can take. It can mean the difference in having the opportunity to become an actor, doctor or a writer or struggling every day for food to feed yourself and your children. God forbid when they get sick. What would you do?

But there’s a great verve and understanding because they deal with death and survival. We don’t have that. It’s a wisdom we don’t understand. As I think about it, that leads me to my character and Cate’s story in this film. They’re a couple who are used to having a pharmacy down the road. We can get anything we want—doctors and all. So our characters don’t think when they just say, ‘Great, we’ll go to Morocco,’ it’s the romantic idea of going to another country. They don’t think about what would happen if they were to get into some kind of accident and how they would deal with it. They’re not accustomed to the lack of services and opportunities. (But in the US), we grow up with the American dream—that we can be anything we want. That’s the most lasting impact Africa has on me. It goes back to the issue of equality. It makes me and others I work with want to even out that playing field in some way.

Some reports claimed that you got married yesterday. And can you talk about the message you are sending by having an American baby in Africa?
No, not true (on the first one). But (we are) just as dedicated. Two people with our track record, you know (laughter). Namibia served a twofold purpose. I’ll tell you a funny story. I was told this after the fact. At a meeting of the African Union, the Minister of Tourism from Namibia was asking South Africa, “How do we help ourselves with tourism? No one knows we exist. People don’t come here.” That was about two months before we went there (laughing) but we may have ruined a good thing. There was a search for where we can bring this child into the world and have some semblance of privacy for ourselves and our kids, especially her (Shiloh), and especially this idea that she could be part of another place. She was given a Namibian passport. That will bring us back there and at the same time we can invest in that place that Angie had been to before and fallen in love with. We can help out a little bit with their programs. There are great programs going on there. They’re doing some good things on the equality and opportunity front. It was more of an instinct than an actual defining reason why it (Namibia) was right on these levels. Namibia just felt right for us and that was our goal from the beginning. We knew it would be a circus here. We had some romanticized ideas too—going deep in the Congo. But it was more instinctual on our part.

Has fatherhood exceeded your expectations?
Yes. They (the children) define what they want to be. You can’t really push them in any direction. The fun part of being a parent is trying different things on the kids and seeing what they’re drawn to and what they’re not. It’s almost like putting an array of musical instruments out in front of them and finding out which one they’d go for. Unfortunately, ours went for drums (laughter).

Have your kids exceeded your expectations?
Oh yeah, absolutely. As I said before, I am not joking around. I’m looking for a soccer team (laughter). I want to compete in the World Cup.

Since the Mexican portion of this film’s story deals with the immigration issue, can you comment on how cruel the experience can be for people who are not allowed to enter this country legally?

I’m really not knowledgeable enough to speak on it. But I like what Thomas L. Friedman (three-time Pulitzer prize winner, The New York Times’ foreign-affairs columnist and pro-immigration advocate) said—something to the extent of proper control but bigger gates (The exact quote is, “Personally, I favor a very high fence, with a very big gate.”). My worry is if we become too isolationist, we’re going to choke ourselves.

Brad ’s so cute. Part II

228 | Huh?
—————–
for those who haven’t read it.

w/ that Inquirer interview, again i love how Brad always uses “we”,
“our”, “us” anytime Angie is also mentioned. Brad also answers his
questions well.

And I really like this one as well:

Can you talk about the media circus at the height of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”?

If there was a real conversation about what was going on, instead of this push to sensationalize and make money off that, I would have made myself available. But at that point, it was a no-win situation. I knew there would be a time when things would calm down and I could speak more freely and it wouldn’t be abused.

That (the media circus) was not about real journalism. To me, journalism is an unbiased telling of the facts. It’s not about speculation and sensationalism. I rail against the invention of “news.” It says something about our culture.

He is so right on, the media circus during M&MS was not about real journalism , it was all about speculation and sensationalism.

Brad, you ROCK!!!

I knew there would be a windfall of info. They can’t strong arm India the way they did Namibia.

Ritzygal - you are either extremely naive or a liar - they didn’t strong arm Nambia.

You seem very obsessed with B&A even though you are nearly always uncomplimentary. You even post on Brad fans forum. Sad.

im so in lov ewith this family!

Does it hurt to be that stupid?

35 | willy |

Less periods please. And using the caps lock wouldn’t hurt either. I could not understand you.

Wow there are a lot of haters on tonight scrapping the barrel (where have they been if they not seen Angelina happy in the last year or so! She has looked happier than ever). Idiots.

45 | spamthehaters |

So true. Angie has been seen doing a lot of smiling recently. The haters wouldnt know it because they live in their own little world of hate.
They should get out more, it might improve their disposition as well as their IQ.

ignore the psycho

It is believed that Angelina will shift to Abb’s Palace, a 30,000-sq-ft residential bungalow owned by real estate biggie Avinash Bhosale in Baner located not far away from the Sindh Society.

The bungalow, spread over 12 acres of lush green land with a clubhouse, helipad and hangar, is also one of the locales for the big budget film.

The posh palatial farmhouse of industrialist Cyrus Poonawalla, located in the eastern part of the city, is also being considered for the star couple.

Thanks for the link. I sure the hotel is nice but it maybe more fun for the kids and more privacy for them to more into one of these homes.

The whole relation smells of PR!
43 | gismo | 10/7/06 2:45 PM

i believe the PR relationship stench belongs to your one and only JA.

Wow, would you want to mess with THAT bodyguard? Good choice.

Very interesting, pay attention to the last sentence.

Brad and Angelina go public!

Again. And with no new pictures. All the tabs note that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie flew to Arizona for the weekend, on the heels of Jennifer Aniston’s bombshell Vanity Fair interview. Us Weeklycalls their trip a
“low-key getaway,” but In Touch’s headline blares: “Brad and Angelina go public!” (The two mags also offer conflicting accounts of what the pair ate for dinner: In Touch says fish tacos for him, fajitas for her; Us says fajitas for him, taquitos for her.) Meanwhile, the tabs work to scrounge up some kind of Pitt-camp response to Aniston’s tearful interview. Us
has “a Pitt source” saying, “Jen is trying
to make him look bad when she was the neurotic one. … The truth is, he couldn’t tolerate her anymore and he had to get out.”

it might be better for them to get out of that hotel. From what was posted in the previous thread, their privacy and security does not seem to be assured. I mean, telling their floor and room numbers, what they ate or drank?
They are human beings doing their jobs. With three small children, they are entitled to what all others enjoy - private moments, peace of mind.
The die hard fans will have to seriously balance the need to see pics and more pics (which drives the paps), and RESPECT for the family. I vote for respect

I’m not a fast reader, and slower typer, JJ is giving me a run for my money over the past couple of days! My family is ready to put me in the looney bin. too much to read can someone tell me where to find Brad’s most recent interview?

the bad comments are there because Angelina and Brad wear expensive clothes and stay at good hotels but always do so poorly for the public. everything only show and PR.
Maddox carries only designers clothes much tell thundert dollar but Angelina and Brad for many they are so normal … .hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahah hahahahahahahahah

Angelina was to blame more happily, now use to live her children it never wanted, all only Brad, in public and in the luxury like her.

66 | gismo
I need a translator. Does anyone speak gismo?

66 | gismo

????? What are you trying to say?

You guys really know how to make a mountain out of a moehill–I picked up US Mag waiting to read this SEISMIC shift in attitude towards Aniston and I found it to be lukewarm at best in terms of going after her. Eh.

But to stay on topic, I think they should move to these private bungalows–it would mean less pics, which would be unfortuate for us, but it would also mean less incidents (hopefully) like the one with Mickey and the pap.

I wonder if he has the audacity to treat an Indian pap like that? The love fest would most certainly be over.

68 | Um |well we have such a multi-lingual group here I am hoping someone can be a translator for gismo since I have no clue what she is saying. BAMZSers we need help here and please tell India to turn her caps off :lol:

I loved the interview with Brad. I think there is a real sense of contentment in his words. It also seems that he has not allowed all the craziness over the last two years affect his life. He knows it’s all garbage and I am glad he didn’t waste his time with it like Jennifer Aniston did.

74 | ritzygal |

If you had been keeping up with how Us Weekly had been kissing Aniston’s ass for the past 18months, you would know this was a big deal. Was she hit as hard as I would have liked? Nope. Did I wish they had shown even more of her manipulations? Sure. But what they DID print was amazing to me, they exposed a lot. And coming from Us… that was seismic to me.

I show Gismo’s post to my 8 years old niece, this is her translation: ” Angie should be vote as best dresser because she has great taste in clothes….. since she does not want to be name in those tasteless media trivia so she dress down like normal people, but still she looks better than the those “best dress” people….Brad and Angie was blamed for giving their children too much loves and happiness, because of that Maddox won the coolest kid best dress on people magazine, the children should be home in a cocoon.

9 | credit to cyanide
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cyanide, I’m sorry I didn’t think to add “Credit to cyanide for the scans” at the album, on YG. I was tired and it was late at night (poor excuse). I fixed it now!

Brad is looking sexaaay!

84 | Ilovejude
Are you talking about Jude Law? The one and only who slept with the Nanny while engaged? Yep you got great taste. No faking joke there! lol.

got to go, Birthday Party. Have a wonderful week-end everyone.

hmmm YEAH AND BRAD CHEATING HER WIFE WITH ANGELINA HE IS A JOKE, HE IS A CHEATING LOSERRRRR

Bonking Angie, the hottest star in HW, is a sign of very good taste. Bonking the hired help is so duh…

And all the nannies must be male. Hetero, of course.

Thanks for the thread. Love the aricle Inquirer, thanks for sharing

Of course he is masculine, Katie.

Jolie says disappointed not filming in Pakistan
07 Oct 2006 19:04:13 GMT
Source: Reuters

LOS ANGELES, Oct 7 (Reuters) - Angelina Jolie says she and Brad Pitt are disappointed they are not shooting “A Mighty Heart,” a film about U.S. journalist Daniel Pearl, in Pakistan where he was abducted and murdered in 2002.

Security concerns there caused officials to suggest they work elsewhere. So with the exception of a few background scenes shot in Pakistan, “A Mighty Heart” will be made in the western Indian city of Pune.

The Oscar-winning U.S. actress plays the slain reporter’s wife, Mariane. Pitt, Jolie’s partner, is the movie’s producer.

“I am disappointed that we could not shoot the film in Pakistan, a country that I love and have visited three times,” said Jolie in a statement issued on Saturday by Trevor Neilson, an adviser to the couple.

“They talked with people from all levels of the Pakistan government and there’s certainly no hard feelings. But it became clear that it was preferable to film in India,” Neilson told Reuters by telephone.

He said there was no release date set for “A Mighty Heart,” which is being made by Pitt’s production company, Los Angeles-based Plan B.

The film is based on a book by Mariane Pearl, “A Mighty Heart: The Brave Life and Death of My Husband Danny Pearl.”

Pearl, a 38-year-old reporter with The Wall Street Journal, was kidnapped in Karachi in early 2002 while researching a story in the aftermath of Sept. 11. A videotape of Pearl having his throat cut was later circulated by his killers.

English filmmaker Michael Winterbottom, famed for such war-based films as “Welcome to Sarajevo” and “The Road to Guantanamo,” is directing the movie.

In her statement, Jolie said “A Mighty Heart” is about “cross-cultural understanding and the values that people of all faiths share. This is not a film about terrorism or conflict, it is a story of people of all faiths working together to find the truth.”

Pune, a metropolitan area with more than 4 million people, is in Maharashtra state, about 80 miles (130 km) southeast of Mumbai.

blah blah blah blah blah blah Maddox blah designer clothes blah blah.

My grandson wears designer clothes and we’re far from rich. Should they dress him in orphanage clothes?(my apologies to any orphans who may have been insulted by this blog)

I think ilovejude and gismo are the same english as a second language people! NO?

I still don’t understand gismo. Is it from a cartoon? I mean the gismo. Than this blabla is understandable.

So Trevor was speaking with Reuters on behalf of them. It’s good because this is a politically sensitive theme. Do you remember when Brad and Angie attended Pakistan on their way to Japan last year? They had a meeting with Musarraf, we had pictures from that occasion. I bet they tackled this movie issue there.

Gismo and ritzgal and her other personalities;

Here’s big glass of STFU. You can have it cold, hot or you can even put it in an enima and stick it up your ass.

121 | gismo |

Ok is this Ritzygal pulling our legs or what? No one can be this dumb. Or sound so dumb.

Enough already with Brad and Angie. Fine, they are the two best looking people hooking up. Brad has done a 180 and suddenly became a different person at 40 and Angie is a saint.

Admittedly she is doing good work but please, there are people out there with very small income who selflessly offer foster care to hundreds of kids every year - without the need to publicize it - doctors who volunteer to work in poor countries, with no protection of bodyguards, sleeping in sheds instead of bungalows, no clean water or chef to cook for them and receiving zero pennies or support and recognition. They are the people we should call saints. Angie’s heart might be true but enough with the sainthood…..

Rizzy -Bizzy

It’s nice to know even Angelina looks like **** sometimes. She looks straight fug in those pictures.

massimo, learn to use proper punctuation.

No Twig,

That’s just you looking at yourself in the mirror.

pitt didn’t want to go to Pakistan. he is a coward.
;-)
130 | massimo80

trying to protect your family is being such a coward. what an idiot.

126 | NY-here
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think you just don’t get it-
Brad and Angie publicize their good works to bring attention to the problems, the affected countries, and hopefully achieve widespread for them. They’re USING their celebrity to do that, as Brad has plainly stated.
They can do a lot more good if the world knows about these problems, than if they anonymously contrtibuted money to their causes?
It bores me to death having to point out the obvious to some people….if you take the trouble to read and post here, post relevant things please.
OK????

92 | Ilovejude - I see, and where did you find that fact?

Thank you Jared and Audrey! You guys rock!

126 | NY-here |

NO ONE HERE THINKS THEY ARE SAINTS!!!
geesh how lame some people ,are it is pathetic .

Papa Pitt, Shiloh and Angelina, Part I
By Ruben V. Nepales
Inquirer
Last updated 10:05pm (Mla time) 10/05/2006
Published on Page E1 of the October 6, 2006 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer
LOS ANGELES—“Don’t mess around with me, man,” Brad Pitt quipped, his famous blue eyes smiling when a journalist remarked that only two years ago, he said he was ready to be a father.
Now, he has not one but three children.
In an unprecedented freewheeling interview at the Universal Hilton, his first with our press group since he began his much-publicized relationship with Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt talked about Angie, fatherhood, the issues he believes in and Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu’s “Babel,” his stunning new film.
In gray shirt and jeans, Brad, 43, is younger looking and a lot more boyish in person.
When he was asked to stand by to pose for pictures, he asked, “What am I supposed to do for five minutes?” And then he broke into a brief dance which would have elicited shrieks from his millions of fans had they been there.
Talking for the first time on a variety of subjects, he smiled and leaned forward when the topics were obviously close to his heart and mind, like flying planes and putting his celebrity status to positive use like in environmental activism.
He shook his head emphatically when he named two things that irritate him the most. Sometimes he rocked back in his chair. Reflexively, he occasionally wet his lips.
The only time he refused to answer was when he was asked what he was good at. “You stumped me there,” he told a reporter. “It’s really not for me to say.”
We got to throw the first question—about his emotionally charged scene in “Babel” where his character speaks by phone to his toddler son.
A story (written by Guillermo Arriaga based on his and Alejandro’s idea) about how one rifle shot in the desert affects four families in Morocco, Los Angeles, Mexico and Japan, “Babel” is superbly directed by Alejandro (“Amores Perros,” “21 Grams”), who won the Best Director prize at last May’s Cannes Film festival for this film.
Alejandro’s achievement is doing justice to the milieu in each of the four locations and interrelated stories, drawing fine performances from all (and we mean everybody) in the cast, from Brad (made up to look older, with graying hair), Cate Blanchett and Gael Garcia Bernal to the Japanese, Mexican and Moroccan cast.
The latter group, recruited from announcements blared from mosque speakers, acted for the very first time before cameras. A Japanese actress, Rinko Kikuchi, is terrific in a daring role (more about her in another column).
The obsession with Brangelina has overshadowed the couple’s impressive philanthropic efforts. Each of them recently made a gift of $1 million to two humanitarian organizations, Global Action for Children and Doctors Without Borders.
“I’ve seen ‘The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl’ about 18 times,” declared Brad who has patiently watched this kiddie favorite with Shiloh Nouvel, his four-month-old biological daughter with Angelina, and their adopted children, Maddox Chivan and Zahara Marley.
During the interview, Brad, who was divorced from Jennifer Aniston last year, was the first to downplay his public speaking skills.
Smiling, he quipped as he began to respond to a question, “Let me just sit here and stutter for about five minutes and I’ll come up with an answer.”
I was moved by that scene where your character is talking to his son on the phone. He is trying to sound normal but he couldn’t control his emotions. Does that scene pack more emotional wallop for you since you’re now a father?
That scene means a lot more to me now. That moment is about the idea of losing almost everything and what that would mean. Sometimes we can’t see the wonderful things in our lives, the wonderful people. When Richard, my character, hears his son’s voice as he talks about something so innocuous but so beautiful, a thunderbolt of realization hits him: I could have lost all of these. From that moment on, his life would hopefully change.
What is it like being a father now that you have three kids.
Three a year so next year I’ll have six (laughter). Nine total. We’re looking for a soccer team.
How has fatherhood changed your life?
It makes me much more efficient. I do everything faster because there’s no time for messing around. I value what I’m doing. I mean, I still value my work but at the same time, I value the part about getting home to the kids. It makes me stealthier in my attack of things. In a funny way, though, it doesn’t make work inconsequential. It makes the work mean more because I know that somewhere down the road, my kids will see my movies. I approach everything now by considering what it might or could potentially mean to them down the road.
How did you manage to co-produce two potentially award-winning films, “The Departed” and “Running With Scissors,” on top of your duties as actor, father and supporter of humanitarian causes?
I work with good people. Maybe turning 40 has something to do with it as well. There were certain things that I wanted to attack and they seemed to work. Having kids makes me more efficient, too. I’m very proud of these films. That’s a whole other aspect of the business. Actors can only work in certain roles but being a producer opens up opportunities. I get to work on films and stories that mean something to me or films that I wouldn’t normally fit in like “Running With Scissors.” It is a real joy.
What was it like working in the middle of nowhere in Morocco without the distraction of the paparazzi?
They did not have a clue we were there. We had to drive an hour to get to this village that was in the middle of like a lunar landscape. They didn’t have electricity. They brought it in for the film. They ran a (power) line and we were able to leave it there afterward which was nice.
Cate says “I peed” in one scene but it is probably one of the most touching scenes.
Yes, it was very intimate. That goes back to Alejandro and Guillermo’s writing. They threw in something as human and mundane as having to take a piss and worked it into this intimate moment. The moment spoke volumes about their history, who they once were and what they could be together. But don’t listen to me. Whatever Cate said, it’s right. Cate has an uncanny insight and I would go with her response before mine.
How does your involvement with humanitarian causes seep into your acting career?
I know it has to seep into acting in some way. Maybe not in “Ocean’s 13” (laughter) but in some way. This film relates to me on that level.
Does this movie speak closer to you?
Yes, because it parallels my belief that what is most lacking is an understanding of each other. It’s a strange thing with globalization, we’re more connected to others and yet, there are more conflicts than ever. It has something to do with a lack of understanding and of talking to each other.
On a lighter note, do you have your pilot’s license yet?
Yes, I do.
What is it about flying that you love so much?
Well, I can’t be followed, which is the first plus. Angie has been flying for a while so the second plus is the idea that it’s like throwing the kids in the back of a Suburban and having some freedom. There’s the freedom in the air and a real sense of accomplishment. Flying is this amazing marriage of human ability with nature and machine. Any one of these can go wrong at any moment so there’s a real call for focus and attention up there. I’m telling you it can go wrong seriously fast but it’s a real pleasure. To be 40 and still be able to achieve things that are personal is a rewarding experience.
What kind of planes do you fly?
We have the beginner planes. Little ones.
Was there a movie that inspired you to become an actor?
No, but strangely enough, I like “Saturday Night Fever” (laughter). I did. I loved it. But it wasn’t because of the bad suits and the dancing although I can do the hustle as I’ve proven today. I didn’t know people could live like that (until I saw that movie). I had only seen my corner of the world which was Oklahoma and Missouri. That there are other complete ways to attack life—this idea of a different culture—I got most intrigued by. I’ve always liked films. I remember watching “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” in kindergarten.
What inspired you then?
A week before I was supposed to graduate from college, everyone had applied for jobs and was receiving offers. I hadn’t applied anywhere. I didn’t have a clue nor did I have any interest to go somewhere. But it occurred to me and I’ve always thought, I wish I’d grown up in New York or LA because I could watch films in those cities. It just struck me one night that I can do it. So within that week, I decided I was going to LA. But I had no money so I worked for a couple of weeks. Then I loaded up the car and went to LA. I did not go back to my college classes. I did not graduate.

Media versus Brangelina

British photographer assaulted by Brangelina’s security officer; local media demands press conference to end the stalemate

Day 3 of Brangelina in Pune and the extravaganza still continues in Pune. All eyes and cameras are still tailing Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Photographers and journalists are taking turns to stay up and keep a watch on the movements of the couple, through the night. Apparently, the star couple went for a walk at 4.30 am yesterday, presumably to avoid the media. But they were seen by a few night watchmen among the media.

Brad and Angelina were joined by Dan Futterman, who will play Daniel Pearl, and Aarti and Kailash Surendranath yesterday and the team was closeted in for a meeting that lasted for hours.

Incidentally, tired of the cat-and-mouse game, the local media has demanded that Brangelina hold a press conference and divulge details about the shooting, after which they are ready to disperse. The organisers have agreed to mull over the matter.

Meanwhile, in an unsavoury incident yesterday, the personal security officer of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt today manhandled Sam Pelf, a British photographer, outside Le Meridian hotel where the actors are staying.

The entire press collected there saw Sam being caught by the neck by one of the two personal security officers of the star couple when he tried to take the security officers’ pictures. The security officer also abused Sam vociferously and threatened to thrash him if he did not stop tailing Brad and Angelina.

Both security officers were equally abusive towards all the journalists present, including those from the Indian media. He asked the photojournalist and cameramen from the print and television channels to switch off their cameras.

Sam initially gave a statement saying that he was considering registering a police case against the security officer. “I have not yet filed any case. But I am thinking about it,” he said.

However, by the time we contacted him, the photographer had been briefed not to talk. “My agent has told me not to talk about this incident to anyone any more,” he said. “The incident has turned ugly enough. And now I’ve been told that my job will be on the line is I say anything else.”

• Tailing the paparazzi

Meanwhile, Saurav Dey, a second-year student of the Film & Television Institute of India (FTII), from the direction department, is making good use of the media frenzy going on in the city. He has landed up with his crew at Le Meridian and is tailing the paparazzi here. “I am making a documentary film on the chase, and the entire process of people trying to get in touch with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie,” says Saurav. “I also plan to get Angelina to talk on camera for about three minutes. Right now, of course, it looks like an uphill task. But she’s here for a month, and I’m sure I’ll manage. Now I’m simply filming the whole, and very long, process of trying to get close to a star.”

I am happy with his answers. Why cant you?

126 | NY-here - I understand what you are saying but one question, are they movie stars?

If India is so crazy, I’m sure they will pull the production out of the country. They should calm down, and don’t demand press conferences etc, this is so transparent.

I know this has nothing to do with anything anybody’s talking about but I did see BONO’s
name mentioned, which made me remember when Brad & Jen where on stage with him.Obviously Brad had an interest in humanitary causes even then. So it stuck with brad while it fell on deaf ears with X and when he met up with Angelina, he must have realized that SHE was the one to partner with, a soulmate. Now the other team keeps saying he’s morphing into her, I just think they’ve just grown closer together.

I’ve got ADD and have to write things as soon as I think od them

159 | Gussie |

Great gobs of goose grease, Gussie! It is getting crazy over there. And why was that photographer trying to take pics of the JP’s security officers? No wonder Mickey got upset that they wouldnt stop after being asked to. Really crazy!

142 | You hear - Wonderful, I hope it is true. Can’t wait to see another Jolie-Pitt enter this world (albeit it is a crazy world). They

Yes! Did you want something? Or did you just want to see how my name looked in the little box.

177 | Ilovejude

I believe there are quite a few new “Jude” threads on JJ’s site now, so I would suggest why don’t you go and post there. We all love Brad here and think he is perfection so you are really wasting your time here.

Ilovejude;

I guess you’ve missed all of the recent interviews from Toronto to his photocall in L.A. for Babel. The running theme has been how much more gorgeous he is in person. And that he is arguable the biggest movie star in the world.

The Glory days of Jude never were. Only in your mind. And Jude is going to be getting hair plugs soon. He’s in his early 30’s and is already balding. Sucks to be Jude. Sucks to have a handle such as Ilovejude.

Yes! Did you want something? Or did you just want to see how my name looked in the little box.

LOL It did look mighty cute. :lol:

#126 NY here|

I dont see how checking in to a hotel is seeking publicity. But, that’s just me.

167 | the world | 10/7/06 5:19 PM
You think that we think we’re the center of the universe? we’re not the ones calling ourselves “the world” the United Nations made Angelina a Goodwill embassador, but I guess you know more about it than they do! You arrogant son-of-a-*****! Wars happen! deseases happen! There have been wars and war mongers since the beginning of time. Therefore we can not trust the goverments to fix anything INDIVIDUALS can make a difference, look at South Africa!

#188!!!! lolol……………..

doctors who volunteer to work in poor countries, with no protection of bodyguards, sleeping in sheds instead of bungalows, no clean water or chef to cook for them and receiving zero pennies or support and recognition. They are the people we should call saints. Angie’s heart might be true but enough with the sainthood…..

126 | NY-here |

If it is possible for you to not be very judgemental, you can read Angie’s NOTES FROM MY TRAVELS, then you will know she has lived like these doctors that you talk about. She gives money to help the volunteers and aid workers carry on their work. She brings attention to the work that these agencies do like the donation to the Doctors Without Borders, the workers praise and thank her for the attention she brings to what they do. Do not blame Angie for being famous.
Nobody here as given her a sainthood, but in a culture populated by the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, she is living an extra ordinary life. You are just pissed that we see the goodness in her and are not bashing.

Ritzy- give it up. You are a screwed up mess. You will never get an opportunity to be with Brad Pitt, so stop with the bitching already, it is old and idiotic.

I posted this comment to the Mumbai Mirror article above

The world is watching India through the trip of this super-famous couple.
We hope that India will be a more civilized place for them and their children, and not treat them like circus animals whose only worth is in their photos.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, their children, and a large crew, will make India their home for a month, and India will be part of their memories forever.

What impressions can they get from this lovely country, when they are not free to see it? When they are prisoners of the paparazzis?

Where is the Indian police’s restrictions on the media for the protection of their famous guests?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are a generous couple-much more likely to reward a polite and respectful media with plenty of photos and an interview, than an aggressive, jostling crowd that act with no restraint and no respect for the privacy and enjoyment of India’s visitors.

157 | Gussie

Oh lord! Now they’re demanding a press conference with B & A? What the hell? I still think they should just release a whole bunch of pictures and maybe go ahead with the Press Conference. Maybe that will calm things down a bit.

192 | Ilovejude|

Have you ever seen Brad in person? why is it every article I read about him says he is even better looking in person. Articles written by people who have actually SEEN THE MAN.

Buzz off. And by the way, the plural of man is men.
Run on now to Jude’s thread before the rest of his hair falls out.

Well, if the Indian media are demanding anything, which I doubt, then they should be informed that they are a DEMOCRACY and they can’t force anything upon people. The British tabloids are making that up.

I want Angelina to watch Ray’s trilogy’

Priyanka Dasgupta
[ 7 Oct, 2006 2049hrs ISTTIMES NEWS NETWORK ]

Actor Irrfan Khan speaks to us about working with Angelina Jolie in A Mighty Heart, a film based on the murder of Daniel Pearl by Al Qaeda terrorists.

So, you’ve finally managed to get Angelina to come to India!

I don’t think I ought to take this credit. Angelina’s portions were, in any case, supposed to be shot in India and all my scenes are with her.

What do you find attractive about Angelina?

I’ll be lying if I say that I don’t find her attractive. Angelina has an ethereal quality about her… she is both sensuous and pious.

What about Brad Pitt?

There are few actors who are both handsome and have the talent to act. I find Brad Pitt and George Clooney to be in that category.

If you were given the responsibility of introducing India to Angelina, what would you do?

I would first want her to watch Satyajit Ray’s films. I want her to watch the trilogy and Kanchenjunga. That apart, I would want her to see the mountains. A visit to the Taj too.

How were you chosen for the role?

They saw my photos and Warrior, I met the film’s director Michael Winterbottom. Brad Pitt also saw my films.

195 | Anna |
You got that right, B&A are very graceous and patient when arrangement s have been made for a photo op. the problem is that ratzies can’t make money from pix everyone else has. They’re kind of like bounty hunters.

186
Gussie

My bad I didnt see your post. I thaught you where Mark Foley or somebody. I was about to give you a no chatting with pages lecture.

I thinks it is not as bad as being potrayed or Brad and Angelina would not have been on that ricshaw(sp) . Brad has had to deal with pap and fans while filming in other countries. They just need to move out of the hotel and get more space between Brad and Angei and the paps. I sure they will be handle this.

Let’s get the ball rolling…how about posting some comments to the Mumbai Mirror-they are posted right away:

208 | India

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It has nothing to do with the people or avoiding the people which Brad and Angelina NEVER do. It’s about the insanity and frezy of the press there and the constant reporting of information on them down to the numbers of their hotel suites. That is NOT cool. They were guaranteed privacy, secuirty and some freedom of movement by the Indian Production company. That Indian production company has biffed it big time. If they don’t get it together they will pull out from India and India will have to absorb the costs.

It’s a black eye on India right now. They’re showing they’re unprofessional and cannot handle a big time production there

213 | the world |

Wow! You are boring!!

I don’t think it is fair to blame Pune for a bunch of UK paps coming in and acting up. Also IMO Mickey overreacted. (Brad, Angie and the kids were not in danger)

Awww, Jill next time you take your bitter pill, take it with a shot of something.

It won’t go down as hard. And stick in your craw.

Though I admit, I love that it does.

Each country is different. I am sure brangelina are understanding to that and are handling it well.

221 | India
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

No need to tell me about India. I spent three weeks there two years ago when a co-worker got married.

You’re missing the whole point. It is the actions of the staff working at the hotel that are causing the problem. They are speaking to the press. How do you think the media printed 1. what they ate for dinner 2. what their suit numbers are 3. Who is traveling with them. 4. License plate numbers of vehicles being used, etc, etc…

No one is talking about controlling anything, least of all them. It’s about controling the crowds and respecting the confidentiality agreements that have been signed. It’s the India press releasing this stuff not the foreign press.

India looks very bad here

The room numbers were printed in the press from India. 5th floor 519-526

I don’t think it is fair to blame Pune for a bunch of UK paps coming in and acting up. Also IMO Mickey overreacted. (Brad, Angie and the kids were not in danger)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pune police can go a long way in ensuring that people who come to do business there are not mobbed, and are free to do a little sightseeing, ALMOST like any other visitor.

Photos of security personell make their job less effective and puts those they protect in danger, so they are a no-no.

Again, we’re talking about a movie production/business. That’s the subject. India is desperate to break into the Hollywood market and will not be able to if it continues like this. This is a HUGE high profile movie being made there. If they can’t handle it they will continue to have half a room of reporters show up for them like they did at the Toronoto film festivale

Again, you’re missing the point. It’s not about control it’s about discretion. You think that Brad and Angelina don’t care that their room numbers and hotel was put in the paper along with the license plates of the vehicles they’re using?

227 | Anna
***
They have not started filming yet so there is no information that business is not getting done. About sightseeing, well there is a cost to fame. However Brad and Angie have always found a way to relax in what ever country they are in and I am sure they will in India. It is just day what 3 or 4 things hopefully will calm down.

it’s about discretion. You think that Brad and Angelina don’t care that their room numbers and hotel was put in the paper along with the license plates of the vehicles they’re using?

233 | Ant

Well that I agree with.

Again, you’re missing the point. It’s not about control it’s about discretion. You think that Brad and Angelina don’t care that their room numbers and hotel was put in the paper along with the license plates of the vehicles they’re using?
———————————————–
I agree, it’s not about the people, it’s about the information that is leaking.

X17 has the complete series of Mickey and the paparazzi. On the comments someone posted this:
These people have had lunatics posing as National Security agents trying to get jobs with them and in Pakistan they arrested two men pretending to be policemen to get near them. In Namibia you had another nutjob paparazzi pose as a doctor to try and get into the maternity ward and was arrested twice. Once on the hospital’s freak’n roof. Let alone that dumb **** UK tabloid reporter who had sex with a doctor in order to get into the hospital after Shiloh was born. Of course the dumb broad had the wrong hospital. Then you have paparazzi trespassing on their property and looking through their living room windows and one being arrested at Maddox’s school.

I never heard most of incidents before, are those true?

This is just ONE of all the pages I’ve seen their room accomodations printed.

249 | Leave Jude alone | Well sweetie you are the one that brought it up not ME ….. I just stated the facts that you can not compare Bred to Jude. To me Jude is a fine looking guy not handsome but OK, that is my opinion, like I said you brought it up so this is my opinion in response to your post. If you don’t want a response back don’t post it :lol:

well, guess not then….

take care anyways!

bye.

angie

Jude is gorgeous you are all jealous of his beauty!

who is angie j?

Leave Jude Alone;

No, you leave us alone. I’m not a man so why the hell would I want to look like a man. Not just any man. A man that while married to Sienna Law, practiced the swinger lifestyle and then got poking his nanny. Not just by anyone, his little boy.

I can see why they would be a lot to be jealous of. Not. Hope Jude gets tested every month. He’s a bit skeevy.

Nice… how did you find the coordinates of Poona?

like i said they woke me up incredibly early and im surfing around the internet

what about you

will you STFU about Jude Law, why are you even on this thread to talk about Jude Law? Wouldn’t it just make more sense to go to a JL link? we’re not here for him we will never agree with you.
I find it annoying enough that fanistons come on here, but hey at least there was a connection at one time. But Jude Law?Here? BTW these are rhetorical questions don’t feel the need to answer

my next tattoo? well see that ;)

I thought it was cyanide.

Hey! angie j. how does Brad look naked these days? LOL

In fact, I think you should visit Kerala to chill out. You would have had some peace. By the way, I am using somebody else’s comp and I think i used their email address. Don’t know how this works, but their email address keeps popping up.

this is my first time here… yup, i’m here.

284 | priyanka |

I’m sure they would have had a good time in Kerala but they are their to work, not just chill out. Pune resembled Karachi and that’s why they have to stay there. It’s not a matter of choice on their part. If they were in India to relax and vacation, I’m sure they would be traveling all over the country, but they are their to work.

i SWEAR to God! I’m talking to another person named angie j.!!! I swear it! I knew someone would say that!

lil relax im still here just got a call from us…..

angelah, how are you?

Us has your phone number in Poona?

lil dear of course im in work here remember

Smaller dogs are easier to take care of. I’m sure Mad would love a dog!

Hello ladies, just got back from watching THE DEPARTED, it was great. I love seeing Brad’s name as a producer; and I saw a preview of TGS, and all I have to say is WOW, can’t wait to see it

Jolie-Pitt may shift to Pune bungalow

Michael Gonsalves (IANS)

Pune, October 7, 2006

Advertisement

Hollywood first couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who are here to shoot for a film, may shift from a five-star hotel to a private bungalow.

Angelina and Brad, who arrived here on Thursday with their three children, are staying at Hotel Le Meridien where they plan to shoot a film - “The Mighty Heart” - on slain American Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl.

Two more bungalows were booked at the Sindh Society colony at Aundh, an upmarket area in the western part of the city, for the couple, sources said.

Hectic renovation work is underway at bungalow no. 132, Bhallahs Kutir, and bungalow 109, which is without a nameplate and owned by a Mumbai-based businessman, they added.

The compound walls of bungalow 109, which has a sprawling front-yard with black iron gates, have been increased to 10 feet.

The two houses are close to bungalow 223, Nayansukha, a private house to be used as Pearl’s residence and office in the film. Security has been beefed up at this house round the clock. Angelina, who is set to play the role of Pearl’s widow Marianne, will be staying here during the filming.

Outside the house are parked two Hyundai taxis freshly painted in yellow, bearing the numbers PH 3305 and PL 2077 with ‘KARACHI’ written below the number plate.

Foreign and Indian production teams will be staying in bungalows in the Sindh Society colony where more than a dozen palatial houses belonging to businessmen and high-profile lawyers lie unoccupied.

Sources also said the colony and the Nayansukha bungalow were selected for their resemblance to Pearl’s Karachi home.

It is believed that Angelina will shift to Abb’s Palace, a 30,000-sq-ft residential bungalow owned by real estate biggie Avinash Bhosale in Baner located not far away from the Sindh Society.

The bungalow, spread over 12 acres of lush green land with a clubhouse, helipad and hangar, is also one of the locales for the big budget film.

The posh palatial farmhouse of industrialist Cyrus Poonawalla, located in the eastern part of the city, is also being considered for the star couple.

According to hotel sources, Angelina, Brad and their three children - Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh - tasted Indian food for lunch on Saturday.

“They ordered chicken biryani, steamed rice, tandoori chicken, dal tadka, mutton rogan josh and bread. They seemed to have liked the food.”

The hotel staff also said the couple were cool, normal and warm people.

The family is tipped to visit the Katraj snake park Sunday along with the children’s nanny.

“I have no idea (about such a visit). I am hearing it from you,” Neelam Kumar Khaire, the director of the Katraj snake park, said.

Located about eight kilometres from the Le Meridien, the snake park, set up in 1986, has more than 160 species of rare reptiles.

just got back from The Departed. AWESOME flick! braddy done good with the producing. nicholson was mesmerizing. and leo. leo made a fan of me tonight. he looked like a MAN. something i’ve never thought of him as. and matt damon {{swoon}} even as a lying *******, he had me in love.

so, those of you who haven’t seen it yet, it’s worth the $8 and the overpriced popcorn with imitation butter. but don’t touch those shriveled up hot dogs!

lil please dont go there ok?

324 | COLD HARD MATH |

The hotel staff people are idiots. Can they learn to shut their mouths up?!! They need to stop leaking every freaking detail. It’s nice that they tried Indian food and liked it but they need to do their jobs and protect the guests at their hotel. I’m not saying this some arrogant person. I’m an Indian and I understand that all these people are excited about their visit but DAMN! The hotel staff needs to learn the meaning of discretion. The family and the movie crew is trying to be discreet and they would be if these people learn to shut their mouths! I’m truly PO’ed about this.

“when things would calm down and i could speak more freely and it wouldn’t be abused, cant wait for this one.evening all!

Stardust, I don’t think they meant any harm…

314 | angelah - Hi Angelah, I just loved it, I could see it again as well, money well spent

phew…hang around more. :lol:

Are out of you mind sweety? Do you think that celebrities are bothering to read and let alone post on a celebrity blog? To you think that Brad and Angie with the amount of work they have to do and three children to raise have the time or the interest to waste their time on celebrity websides?These people are having bodygards to protect them and you are telling me that now they are chatting with complete strangers? The same goes to the other people you mentioned.I don’t know why the hell I’m trying to put some common sense in you tiny brain but at least I tried.I’m a humanitarian after all.LOL
There’s only one person that I can think of serffing on the internent because of desperation of what is the public’s perseption about her.Let your imagination free.

i read the second part of brad’s interview–enchanting. lemme just say i’m still on “the train” (you know what i mean) now that the translation is much clearer. anyway, aside from my psychosis, i loved everything he had to say. i can imagine him sitting forward in his seat, really animated and happy. nice image.

hey, guli, do you still have those pics from the interview you posted yesterday?

Hey George. So what do you REALLY think about Colin Firth and Leo D? Don’t worry African Girl isn’t around so we won’t tell.

370 | ell | - Hey ell, is that when it comes out over there? It will be worth the wait, you are going to love it

I just want to add one more thing to my post:

I admire so much, the goodness of the Amish community who
have forgiven the killer, Roberts and reached out to his family. For
me, its not that they live as if they hadn’t left the 18th century
that makes them special but this great act of forgiveness and
kindness and nonjudgementality.

Great about The Departed and The Good Shepard. So many
quality movies this season. Finally the arena is back to where it
belongs, to the REAL movie makers and REAL movie stars. The
limelight has been hijacked by some undeserving ex-sitcomers
and B-listers for too long.

369 | gitane | - I thought she was boring as well, I saw her before in different movies, but I can’t remembered her name. It was funny wasn’t it. I just love Leo’s character, he is so damn cute

yes it comes 7.12.2006 in theaters here ,so German fans be ready.

Jolie says disappointed not filming in Pakistan

(Stringer/Reuters)

LOS ANGELES - Angelina Jolie says she and Brad Pitt are disappointed they are not shooting “A Mighty Heart,” a film about U.S. journalist Daniel Pearl, in Pakistan where he was abducted and murdered in 2002.

Security concerns there caused officials to suggest they work elsewhere. So with the exception of a few background scenes shot in Pakistan, “A Mighty Heart” will be made in the western Indian city of Pune.

The Oscar-winning actress plays the slain reporter’s wife, Mariane. Pitt, Jolie’s partner, is the movie’s producer.

“I am disappointed that we could not shoot the film in Pakistan, a country that I love and have visited three times,” said Jolie in a statement issued on Saturday by Trevor Neilson, an adviser to the couple.

“They talked with people from all levels of the Pakistan government and there’s certainly no hard feelings. But it became clear that it was preferable to film in India,” Neilson told Reuters by telephone.

He said there was no release date set for “A Mighty Heart,” which is being made by Pitt’s production company, Los Angeles-based Plan B.

The film is based on a book by Mariane Pearl, “A Mighty Heart: The Brave Life and Death of My Husband Danny Pearl.”

Pearl, a 38-year-old reporter with The Wall Street Journal, was kidnapped in Karachi in early 2002 while researching a story in the aftermath of September 11. A videotape of Pearl having his throat cut was later circulated by his killers.

English filmmaker Michael Winterbottom, famed for such war-based films as “Welcome to Sarajevo” and “The Road to Guantanamo,” is directing the movie.

In her statement, Jolie said “A Mighty Heart” is about “cross-cultural understanding and the values that people of all faiths share. This is not a film about terrorism or conflict, it is a story of people of all faiths working together to find the truth.”

Pune, a metropolitan area with more than 4 million people, is in Maharashtra state, about 80 miles southeast of Mumbai.

I chuckled when I read that the paps DEMANDED they have a press conference. That’s BALLS! From their perspective, I guess it couldn’t hurt to ask. I mean, you never know. And if they all banded together and started putting bad press out there about them, B&A could feel pressure to do just that, especially with the WONDERFUL press Mickey has been generating for them. Actually, it’s kind of funny. The paps are really frustrated because B&A ain’t makin it easy.

Ok people, i’m letting you know right now, I am off to see The Departed. I will not post for the rest of the night. So enjoy this brief respite from my posts and don’t label every little jackass who should show up tonight as ritzygal.

There’s only one jackass, the BIG jackass: me.

Ta.

i’d never seen one film with leo dicaprio until today. gotta say i was impressed. he even had me rooting for him against my beloved matt (who was just so sexy as a *******). but, i’m not going to try to watch titanic or gangs of new york or any of his other stuff. i’ll just be more open-minded the next time i see him headlining a film.

Anyway, who’s to say they’re not aware of this blog and don’t take a second or two to read it.

why don’t you chicks-that talk to certain bloggers go back to your yahoo group and talk amongst each other ,you are only communicating with a few anyway.

380 | lylian | - you said a mouthful lady! Every time I think of the anguish and heartbreak they must be going through, I get misty eyed. And they want to give money to the killer’s family! THAT folks is what being “religious” is supposed to be about. The bible camp people could take some lessons from these folks.

I must say, it seems to have been an interesting day here at Camp JJ. Thank you for the part 2 of the interview. That was AWESOME! There seem to be some people confused as to who they are. *sigh* as always, we BAMZSers must function as psychiatrists for the less fortunate.

And….WTF is up with the Jude Law crap? I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of his movies [or he just didn't impress me], but on looks alone….a 4.

Busy weekend here, hope you are all well. Ivy? How’s Caleb?

406 | we are fans toooo. | - Why don’t you and your little friends, go find a playground and play like the children you all are

402 | ell | - Ell, the 2 months are going to pass real quick, you’ll see

405 | think positive! | - Good Night TP

kearnie, Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks Ladies for your reviews on THE DEPARTED. Sounds like a winner! I wonder how much money it will make this weekend. Brad is making money, while he sleeps!

Alex, OH ****! 5-5!

Bad typo. DODGERS 5-4………

matt is sexy any time. good, bad, dorky. i can’t wait for TGS. yeah, angie’s in it, but i’m all about matt. i hope the next bourne movie isn’t crap, but i’ll pay to see it anyway.

409 | Gussie

thanks. i’d never seen her in anything before. and i probably won’t remember her if i see her again.
