That story is from last week In touch. The Daily mail got the story from The Globe. I don’t think it’s true.

one can definitely say that he has made a successful transition from hollywood to indie and arthouse.

Thanks Jared for the new thread and the stills of Brad’s different movies, he is ymmy and hot and sexy, and I love the cover of EW, my favorite actor and one of my favorite actress, I am definitely going to get a copy of EW

I think this photograph is a composite. It looks to me like it’s two separate pictures.

The pix are from the photocall and he really did not look great in those.

14 | anustin | - Its tabloid gossips, I don’t believe that unless they(B&A) say it themselves

and don’t spell my name with a cap a if i don’t have one.

how rude!

What’s rude is not knowing proper punctuation and how to start a greeting or a sentence. Both are begun with a capital letter.

i think we have one of those spelling police on the prowl. really, how rude! are you an elitist snob? i think you are–are you prepared to take everyone to task on that too? you’ll be busy tonight, baby!

Two of my favorite actors side by side. I will have to buy this issue.

Let it go. The more you comment, the stupider you come across.

Aggie;

That’s a redundant question isn’t it? Stupid is as stupid does.

Jared, can you please clean up the mess? … PLEASE

Aggie, needs to look up the word redundant.

Here’s a dollar, go buy a clue. Or did my appropriate spelling confuse you?

Aggie is trying to ruin a really good new thread.

ITA. Is the issue out yet?

I willnot watch those sucky Oscars if he is not nominated. Yes, I havenot seen the movie yet, but I am bored by the Oscars prentenoius, uneducated, idiots like Sean Penn and Jude Law give me a break. I want to see Brangelina, true stars.. on th red carpet and on the podium, I lost all respect win a tv hack with terrible movies was allowed to present last year (and she looked haggard btw)

It is always fun reading the posts at JJ’s.LOL

Jaredd, are you and Audrey TRYING to kill me?!

Thanks again for the new/the old/the what’s to come.

jpf

looking at Brad’s film history. It does seems that he was in a dry spell after 2001. No inspiration ? He must have been void of life during that stage … ought to have been very tough on him going through that stage of soul searching , family pinning with a partner who desire the complete opposite in life.

okay, wtf happened to brad pitt?? he used to be hot? now he’s just OLD!
56 | nyc2345

ummmm are we looking at the same picture? That is a beautiful Man.

nyc2345,

What’s wrong with getting old? He looks hot. Better. He looks more rugged now. I love it. But then I like grown men so . . .

There are so many pictures of him on this thread. He’s not even looking his age by any standard. He turns his looks on the way that pleases him.

Great Cover!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m glad they are together again in “Benjamin Button”.
As much as I would love it, Brad probably won’t get the Oscar for Supporting but 99.9% sure he will get nominated. The actor playing against Forest Whitiker in The Last King of Scotland is getting raves as well as Matt Damon in The Departed. There are still many many more films yet to come out. It’s gonna the juciest year in decades in regards to star power at this years Awards Shows (well just three count in my book (Independent Spirit, Screen Actor’s Guild and the Academy Awards) everything else is a popularity contest.

I have to see Snatch and would love to see Seven Years In Tibet. I’ve seen just about everything Brad baby has offered.

56 | nyc2345 |
Please have your eyes examined. Brad Pitt is a beautiful grownup manly MAN! He looks content and happy and confident and most of all satisfied. He has finally grown into his looks and is not the enternally young pretty boy. Angelina, Angelina, Anelina, girrlll, you have provided the catalyst that has enabled Braddy Pitt to evolve into Brad Pitt. Oh, yes!

#63 We’ll like to keep his options open. Brad’s getting his best reviews.

I hope Brad win an Academuy Award, because he is a great actor, he has done many good movies, like Legends of the Fall, seven, fiht club and more!!!And now with Babel (drama) , he should win an oscar!!! The oscar have been so boring last years and I want to see new faces like brangelina!!!

Is there an article insidethat goes with this cover? Anyone have it?

66 | The real lou | - ITA with you The real lou, he is definitely a fine wine and getting better with age, love that man

63 | Frenchy

I think Matt Damon will be in the Best actor list. he’s having good rave in TGS. Brad biggest competitor will be Ben Affleck, he just got 2 approval in the Venice FF and Hollywood FF.

They can’t keep inviting ex tv stars, trying desperately to be taken seriously in the movies. That includes the two Jennifers. Aniston and Garner.
54 | Observer2

Exactly. Oscar was broadcast globally. don’t make it look like an Emmy award. we want true internationally reknown movie star.

Ben Affleck? I have heard nothing lately about his movie, it has not been a hit.

Just a thought before I go to sleep..Do any of you think Brad will be attending Tom Cruise’s wedding in Lake Como on November 18? The entertainemnt shows kept teasing like they know something. Personally I hope not.

Here’s a crazy review about Babel from FOX News. For them, I think it’s positive. Good nite.

“Babel,” which stars Cate Blanchett and Brad Pitt among a cast of mostly unknown yet terrific actors, is a masterpiece.

But for the life of me I don’t know why anyone would want to see it.

This independent film, by Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu, is so intense and emotionally disturbing that no dialogue is needed.

With incredible original music by Gustavo Santaolalla, “Babel” would work with the score alone, even without dialogue.

Yet then we would lose the tragic story of a deaf/mute Japanese teen who’s trying to find herself after her mother commits suicide. And that would be a shame, since Chieko’s (Rinko Kikuchi) story is the one most worth watching.
Iñárritu seamlessly brings you to Morocco, Mexico and Japan as he demonstrates a cliche among cliches: that it’s a small world after all.

In other words, the director takes the long way around “the butterfly effect,” or chaos theory. If a butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil, it could set off a series of events that end up in a tornado or a hurricane thousands of miles away.

In this case, it is a rifle in the hands of children that sparks an international incident.

The film begins with a Moroccan peasant walking through the desert trying to sell his rifle. The rifle is used later in a tragic game by children who wind up accidentally shooting an American tourist, played by Blanchett.

We later learn that the rifle belonged to a Japanese businessman, whose wife committed suicide, leaving him and his deaf/mute daughter to pick up the pieces.

Meanwhile Pitt, who plays Blanchett’s husband, and Blanchett are trying to cope with the death of their third child to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

This finds them both in Morocco so they can be alone while their children are cared for by the Mexican nanny, Amelia, played touchingly by Adrianna Barazza.

Pitt and Blanchett’s parts are pretty much actor-proof, as their storyline is the weakest of the film. Anyone could have played their characters.

Amelia decides she will take her charges across the Mexican border so she can attend the wedding of her son, and of course you know this can only get worse.

And it does.

Every storyline is tinged with impending doom, and none disappoint. You’ll find yourself squirming in your seat, closing your eyes and pretty much wondering why you spent $10 to put yourself through such agony, particularly if you’re a parent.

From the tragic story of the rifle boys in Morocco, to the touching story of Chieko as she struggles to find herself and ultimately the loss of the children in the desert around the Mexican border, Iñárritu leaves no parent un-squirmed.

It’s ironic then that he dedicates this film to his own children, his “lights in this dark world.”

Indeed. After watching this film, you’ll rush home to pay the babysitter, and you just might wake up in the bunk bed next to the light of your life, who is safe in your arms.

Keeping It Reel?

“Babel” makes you think about what you have, and how suddenly and easily the things you care for most could be in danger. That said, while a commendable reminder, we do have the nightly local news for that.

And it’s free.

“Babel” opens in limited release this Friday, and nationwide November 10.

I think Matt Damon will be in the Best actor list. he’s having good rave in TGS. Brad biggest competitor will be Ben Affleck, he just got 2 approval in the Venice FF and Hollywood FF.

Yeah, but there weren’t any other high profile movies at either of those festivals. Hollywoodland was the biggest movie shown at the Venice Film Festival and it looks like it’s heading straight to video, so I doubt the Academy even remembers it come awards season. If he was so great in that flick why didn’t the producers enter it into the TIFF? That’s the second biggest film fest on this side of the Atlantic (aside from Sundance, which is mainly Indie films). If they thought he was so great as George Reeves then they should’ve put that movie up against the other best movie contenders and they didn’t. Ben Affleck has all the talent of a dead cockroach.

I will be watching Babel. But not sure if Toronto will be included with the limited release. If not then we have to wait for it on November 10th.

Thanks Jared & Audrey for these new threads. You are soiling us. Thanks a bunch!

Last year Oscar was really boring, no big movie star. I hope they can stop inviting starlet and sitcom hack as presenter. This year would probably be more exciting. expect to see Leo in The depart, Matt Damon and Angie in TGS, Clooney and Cate in The Good German, Brad in Babel, Ben Aflleck in Hollywoodland, Sandra Bullock, Panelope Cruz. Nicole in FUR., Meryl Streep . These are some of the Alist actors having good raves and potential Oscar nominne and winner.

83 | Frenchy | - I don’t think that Brad will attend Crazy Tom’s wedding

85 | Passing Through

I hope so. I come to know Ben A. in the Bennifer shenanigans, don’t even remember he was in The Pearl Harbor. his acting prowess was really mediocre, Matt is better.

83 | Frenchie

Would t Tom invite Brad,? are they close friend ? or did Brad invite Tom and Nicole his wedding with Maniston ?

to Ben on the Babel thread

#281 Ben (Babel thread)

I went back to p 1 to read all your posts. When Aniston was mentioned by some fellow poster, you said you refused to discuss about her.
Why are you bringing Angie in at the last paragraph of your post?
Is this hypocritical???

Well, I tell you that. Jennifer never gives back to society. She is selfish. She is a fraud. She is the “me me me” person. She does not take responsibility. She blamed her marriage failure on other people.

For AG: I know it’s too late, you already went on O, but not too late to cancel the VF confession.

continue from last post…..

I hoppe this will knock some sense back in you.

last post… were for AG continue from post # 99

108 | Estelle | - No, I have never watched Ugly Betty, but I heard it is good, maybe I will start watching it

ITA. He lost focus in life after marrying that sit-com hack. he probably thought as promised by his passive-aggressive X to have baby and start a family. all his dream just didn’t happen with his X. thatswhy, he was at a loss, he was seeing a shrink then. what a wasted year, he was supposed to be 37-38 y/o. then. a prime for most actors, he just wasted it.

Well, you know if we talked about it enough, they will listen…the Oscar people. They need rating and what is better than to have the most 2 beautiful/sexy people in the worlds, walking down the red carpet?, come on…..
they don’t need host or hostess….just have a camera permanently nail in front of them the whole night….hello?

118 | Alexanderina | G’nite Alex

Mrs Smith….The Good Sheperd will be out on December 22nd. If I am not mistaken the movie of Matthew McConaughey about football, a Ben Stiller about a Museum guard will be the big movies being shown that week too. So beeter save all those hard-earned $$ to support our Angie.

I mean better not beeter. Sorry guys kinda sleepy already. I guess time to go to bed now.

ITA. I have seen this article before , this guy was talking about kid and family since dating Gwyneth. Its so ridiculous on Maniston VF article, she let her friend state that its
Brad who’s the one who do not want kid. what a bs *****.

++++

and also 2003 was the year when he turned 40.

How do they recoup the cost?

132 | BCBG

Through DVD/Video sales and/or rentals

us mag put the clock on tom cruise (suri). now they are doing the same thing on vince/jen

134 | abigail

We might be seeing the two having PDA just to prove they are still together. Sad, Maniston was living in the world of tab. media. she doesn’t have her own identity anymore. really don’t care this almost 40 y/o old hag and her fat bf was or was not a couple. they are beginning to look like the ill fated beninfer coupling.

“but i’ve see Kalifornia. He played a psycho with juliette lewis”

I loved Kalifornia. Was actually watching it the other day. It’s my favorite BP movie, and I think it’s one of his best performances.

As for Babel, I can’t wait to see it. I’ll have to wait until Nov. 10, but I will be there on opening night. I’m thrilled that there is so much buzz surrounding this movie. I honestly think Brad has a solid shot at an Oscar nod.
