Cate Blanchett on Brad Pitt
Sun, 03 December 2006 at 4:30 am
“It was great to have Brad there, to have that buoyancy. Brad’s open and funny, and he makes me laugh. He makes me think about the style of a film in a way I hadn’t thought about it before. He asks questions about the script that I wouldn’t even conceive of asking. He’s a very aesthetic being, and I’m probably quite an emotional being. So for me, selfishly, he brings that out in me.” — Cate Blanchett on working with Brad Pitt on their film Babel

first!
Damn, I’m too slow
Jared & Audrey - Do you guys EVER sleep?
Second!! Yeah!
Cate is one smart cookie. And my Braddy looks hot in that pic - where is it from that pic?
I have been undertaking the task of celebrating BAMZS on other sites like Dlisted but there are so many negative haters there - they can’t accept how amazing this family is. So if any BAMZS ever go on that site, you tell ‘em about our BAMZS!
Cate clearly sees Braddy’s intelligence and soul. Love it! Loved her in Babel, my favorite movie so far this year.
^^^Oops, I thought I was second. I guess 4th is not bad, Rumor Has It (sorry for the horrible pun) that 4th place gets you an evening with Brad so you see 4th is good
Yeah!
Hmmmm…sounds like CB sees what Angelina sees in hmmmm
In every interview she’s been in she is doing nothing but gushing over him. I think she really really likes him
8th? LOL, and yes Cate we’d all like to get with him as wel
She is a fine lady and the best actress of her generation.I’m really glad that she is working in another movie with Brad after Babel.They make a good team.
” he’s an aesthetic person” : Translation : ” he’s an affacted poseur, with an interest in hairspray and clothes pretending to be an architect”
TO Hollywood love says,
Do not worry. Brad and Angie are in love and the family is everything to them. Furthermore, Brad, Cate and Angie are all friends. Cate and Angie shared a film together, and they liked each other.

Screaming at the ocean so early in the day???? Do you guys ever stop???
Cate also said that she loves him but not the way she loves her husband.
It was posted on the other thread. Whoever has wroked with Brad have only good things to say about him and the same goes for Angie.
I like Cate though.She is a great actress!!
Thanks JJ. When was this interview made?
“Screaming at the ocean so early in the day????” LOL!!
Wow, unfortunate that the end product was a bomb of a movie.

Too Bad Says:
Wow, I’m sure they are so sad that their ‘Bomb’ movie is raking in awards and award nominations. Brad, Cate, and the cast of Babel, keep on going with your ‘Bomb’ movie straight to the Oscars and watch all the ocean screamers SCREAM EVEN LOUDER!
BABEL boxoffice worldwide is presently $33.06 M, which comes from USA, Canada, half of western Euope and Mexico … and it is still showing and going strong in most of these countries.
Babel just needs only $7 million to become profitable.
Babel won the following awards:
Best Director - Cannes Film Festival
Best Ensemble Cast - Gothams
Breakthrough Actor - Gothams
Best Ensemble Cast -Palm Springs
Director of the Year - Palm Springs
Babel is nominated for 8 categories in the Satellite awards.
Because of its low cost (production budget and marketing), BABEL will become a very profitable movie.
I am a moron. I am just an Aniston fan & can’t accept the fact that my idol is on verge of getting back to the C-list. Yes, I knew my idol is a big fraud & a liar just like me.
Sorry but I do not know the meaning of aesthetic. I am dumb as always. I am just twisting the translation because I am built up to hate anything Brad & Angelina. I deserve to die & the world do not need any more moron & imbicile like myself.
I like Cate. She and Brad seem to get along just great. I hope they have a good time with the new movie.
Team Lara Croft ….
Yeah well I wouldn’t mind it one bit if you toned your enthusiasm down on places like Dlisted. It is a losing battle trying to get them people on those sites to feel as you do, and second because you have made it damn hard to even mention being a Brangelina fan without being called over the top JustJAred Brangelunitic. I am not saying or trying to tell you what to do, but I know i am not alone wishing the cheerleading didnt end up looking like you repping everybody else who loves B&A. Cant hardly nobody post 3 words on one of their threads already without a fight because MK set a nasty tone, but then you come and push the buttons more and its so feeling on purpose. Please chill it down a notch and stop trying to convince them ******* there. They are there to be nasty and not nice.
Defending the Jolie -Pitts on other sites is like explaining quantum physics to a two year old-they will NEVER get it. Funny thing is, if Brad and Angie came to their house, they would welcome them and gush all over themselves!

Actually you are not saying something new here.I’m one of the people that knows this better simply because I’m not American and my time zone has 8 hours difference with the U.S time zone.But I wouldn’t be surprised if our beloved trolls are screaming at the ocean all day long without getting any sleep…
too bad, its good to scream right now,i mean this early….its high tide!
“do not need any more moron & imbicile like myself” : only a true imbecile would pretend to be someone else, then be unable to insult them properly.
Thanks Just Jared. Babel is an exceptional Movie. Thanks for the latest Box Office figures. People should take the time to see Babel. It is a complex, emotional Movie with great acting. I hope that BP and other cast members continue to receive award nominations as well as Oscar Nominations. Cate B sounds like a good friend to both BP and AJ. She is also a great actress and deserves to be in “top ten highest paid” over some of the mediocre actresses listed by the Hollywood Reporter.
think positive: so how do you know whether the original post was morning afternoon or night ? You said : “so early in the day”. You have no clue when it was posted.

babel will bomb : phis fans are fat WalMart women and expect Brad Pitt as hairsprayed pretty boy, not as a bald fat man or 50 year old guy. Brad Pitt has hit a wall. People never saw his movies for him, only a shallow projection of an image of what he thought they wanted. Thats what he pretended to be, thats what sold and now that is what they expect. The same thing happened to Stallone.

fact is you are a clueless idiot.
good morning, think positive and anuston, and any other BAMZS-ers here.
Fight the good fight, keep up the good work and the “others” need to go to an AA meeting (a$$holes anonymous)
Please, dont go to dlisted. In that site the posters are nasty with all the celebritys. Let it go. Most of the world loves the Jolie Pitts. Dlisted, FF and perez is all that is left for Aniston fans. Believe me, I’ve being reading these blogs since the very beginning of Brad and Angie love history. The hate is dying down and the number of the haters is decreased. What you have is a very small and vocal number of people very angry with life( they troll all over the net, post over different names, just to give the impression that alot of people think the same way they do.), and these people found a new hobby, hate on the JPS, But time is their worst enemy. Brad and Angie proof everybody wrong, and most people like them as a family unit. So, what I’m trying to say is don’t fuel their hate and make their hobby more funny for them. They will move to the next thing or next hobby in a while. You don’t need to show the reality for them, they know. they just don’t want to see it. We know and the word know that the JoliePitts are happy and in love.
BAD REVIEWS: “leak, edgy, hyper-real. Purposely depleted of warm colors. Pitt and Blanchett only appear intermittently (and not terribly dynamically). An art-type film in three countries.” “Unrelentingly, unremittingly sad, excruciatingly painful, all for no valid reason, Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Babel is a movie to avoid at all costs.”"If Crash drove you to distraction, then thou best stay away from Babel, this year’s towering exercise in socio-political-psycho babble.”This is one of those movies that would work better at home, where you could pause the tape when you need to take a break or fast forward when things start to slow down too much.”
GOOD REVIEWS: “Iñárritu is an exceptionally gifted director who makes each individual scene in Babel work beautifully. However, he runs into trouble as he attempts to pull all the plot strands together”"Tragedy is so overwhelming in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s “Babel” that my anxiety increased throughout the viewing”"An amazing, disturbing drama, “Babel” is a puzzle of film that pieces itself together bit by bit.”

Who is Hollywood’s Most Wanted Actor? More than 50 of the industry’s top power brokers dish out the honors in an Exclusive Radar Poll
Most sought-after actor
Winner: Brad Pitt
Runner-up: Will Smith
Despite his spotty box-office track record (see Troy, Fight Club, Meet Joe Black), Pitt scored the most votes. “He’s charming, talented, handsome, and has international appeal,” says one A-list producer. Coming in a very close second is Smith, whose ability to make rain under even the worst conditions didn’t go unnoticed: “He crosses the color barrier, and audiences love him,” says a former studio prez. “I mean, you couldn’t get a movie much worse than I, Robot, and it did giant business.”

I have to disagree with you at one point. Brad has made many movies that his performances didn’t require a “pretty boy” image as you called it. Such examples are Fight Club Twelve Monkeys Snuch and Seven. Brad have shown what his abilities are and what his able to achieve in many levels. This whole image is not what Brad pretended to be it’s what the MEDIA perceived him to be. Because as you said that’s what sold. They refused to see Brad as an actor but only like a hunk. True fans of Brad are respecting him and don’t want to see him as a dry image but as a talented individual in his work. Brad has always been way more successful in the international markets. His fame is not only based in the U.S. Of course Babel won’t do as well as M&Mrs Smith did. It’s not a blockbuster. It’s an indie with subtitles. But the fact is that now Brad is getting recognition as an actor (he might get an Oscar) and he is in a movie that got excellent reviews and it’s nominated for many awards and it has won some of them already! Personally I think that’s what matters the most.

You are right about DListed. I went there one time and was reading what the people were saying about Heidi Klum and Seal’s children and it was really nasty. They are very mean to alot of celebrities.
Also, you know how Perez Hilton always posts how many people visits his site daily? Last week he had almost 4 million different people visiting daily and only very few of those people post replies in the posts. Even the ones with 400+ replies have the same people posting multiple times, sometimes changing their names. Remember even Perez who controls the board said a majority of people just read but do not post on his site.

—————————-
Is ‘affacted’ even a freakin word???
The luxury Brad now has since he has become mature and has more money than he can spend in a lifetime, is that he can do the movies he wants, when he wants.
He has his own production company and the clout he needs to do so. Even in his younger years he picked a few movies for the role he would play and not the money it would make. He once said that, while an Oscar would mean a lot to him, there are a lot of good actors out there that he respects, and his pretty boy image might follow him. Then he jokingly added that he did NOT want to get a Lifetime Achievement Oscar when he’s old just for hanging in so long

FYI “freakin” isn’t in the dictionary.
He is a hot actor with a love for architecture and a willingness to expand his intellectual horizons beyond what he already knows-He has a love for life and is appreciative of what his hardwork has allowed him to do-You don’t cluck in a chicken costume seven days a week and work like there is no tomorrow if you are not serious about what you do-Take everything away from him, looks, family, money, fame-you still have a basically good human being left!

These are the countries (so far) where BABEL has already out-grossed The Break-UP!!!
Box office success alone doesn’t ascend an actor into prestige. Brad has b.o. hits and misses as all actors, but the fact is he CAN do artsy films gaining his credibility as a character actor. Something that a certain sitcom actress will never able to do unless maybe she goes back to an acting school. This is why it’s Brad Pitt who is the much bigger A-list movie actor. He is an all-around movie star–looks, international appeal, some box office successes, and TALENT. All of which is now tremendously enhanced by joining another all-around movie star Angie and becoming a father. With these two stars combined bursting in sexual chemistry (and parenthood!), a simple photo in a desert together, looks irresitably appealing. Cate B is a wonderful actress, but still lacks in the ‘all-around’ ness, the kind of movie-star aura Brad has. This is something someone is born with and people around have no choice but to bask in the aura. Angie got it, too, so with these two auras (!) what are we mortals do but to amire them LOL? This is why Aniston look all of the sudden very very plain sans Brad.

Gotta say, this renting a house thing is going wonderfully well for them. I think they’ll want to do this from now on when they’re on location.

uh-huh, yeah, sure…whatever..do you have a clue?
Alexandrina: Good point to “I Won’t See It” : The Break Up is really lame (just ask me from enduring it last night). Since I had to watch it with my step dtr. (trying to bond at the uncomfortable age of 19 years old - yeah right) I took the opportunity to really watch X act. Having never seen the movie, but endured all the hype, it was the proof that I knew that her range is very limited. I can not see any raw emotion from her, nor did I laugh at any parts of the movie (nor did step dtr.) I grew up with Meryl Streep and Jessica Lange as my favorite actresses, so my standards are pretty high. Hell, Tootsie was alot funnier than TBU.
Waiting to see where our maize and blue team heads…..I’d like to sneak off and see Babel for a second time. I’ll blow putting the Xmas tree up til next weekend….
Good morning, Ritzygal.
You think too much about this, Boss.
Well, with all the troubles down there, they probably have “rules” about staking out houses. I read they have one in the Garden District (?); it’s not on a highway like Malibu, and really, where are they gonna hang looking for them? Plus, it’s only been a week, the kids probably need sometime to acclimate to the new time zone they are in. And, Angie sure looked tired by the end of her shoot. Hopefull, they are taking it easy and have a giant back yard visible to no one.
Thanks for the lovely quote from Cate JJ and Audrey. As always, you guys make my days.

Hi Izzy, I still can’t get over it that you sit through that movie, poor you, the woman can’t act, I think my 5 year old nephew could doing a better acting job that the X, oh how I detest that woman. I like Meryl Streep I think she is a wonderful actress
I think today we find out if Michigan and OSU are going to play for the National Championship or even Michigan is going to play in the Rose Bowl, it should be very interesting….

Hey zooj! Glad to hear that, now maybe she can leave off constant references to her ex! At the moment, she’s still using him to hawk her wares everywhere. When she lets go, we’ll believe she’s happy - until then, constant references to the past indicate a desire to still be connected.
Guli, I’m in!

To Alexanderina & Guli: Just read the sports page and their is alot of differing opinions in who should go to which Bowl. Some people think that Boise State should play Ohio State, because they are undefeated, but I thought the difficulty of your opponents weighed in on the decision. As long as I can start a fire, grab a laptop and watch the Wolverines in a bowl game, life is good.
Back to TBU and my enduring it last night…..my husband even came in and asked me if I was still awake (and it wasn’t even 11 PM yet).
Along with Meryl Streep, I really liked Charlize Theron in “Monster” - when I compare that role and how she transformed herself for that character, and then I think of X in TBU, well I just stop thinking then (wow, what a run-on sentence, Holy Batman!)
Talk to both Guli and you tonite when we know where our teams are headed.
When is the The Good Shepherd being released? Saw the trailer at the show and Angie looks great….big surprise…..a great movie for holiday viewing..
Man, I must have watched Mary Poppins over 100 times as the kids were growing up and never got bored…..
Babel is doing fine. Please ignore the people that are saying otherwise. It’s production budget is $20 million and it has made over $33 million. It is also showing in just over 600 sites in the U.S. currently and about 900 outside and it has grossed over $33 million without this weekend’s intake added. It’s has not opened in places like England and Germany. The people who say it is not a success are just dislaying their usual ‘put down’ attitude. Happy Sunday everyone.

Thanks J & A for the new thread.
I watched a story about Princess Di today, and a woman from Harlem NY who met with her once said something that made me think immediatly of Angelina.
She said that Lady Di went to the places she did because she knew that the world would follow her there. We’d have no choice but to see what’s going on in the worlds backyards. She knew her “celebrity” could be used to shine a light on the plight of others, and she had found her purpose in that along with being a mother to her sons who she would take out on the coldest of London nights alone, and to parts where homeless lived to show her kids how fortunate they were, and how they had a responsibility to help were they can, and they weren’t better than anyone else because of what they had been born to.
It just all made me think about Angelina Jolie, and wonder why is this so hard for people to understand that about Angelina? Everytime I read someone say “why does she have to be always in the news?” or “can’t she do anything without bringing attention to herself?” OR “they’re such media whores” I just want to cyber smack them silly.
Btw, I really think Princess Di and Angelina would be friends had things been different.
Everyone have a good day.

Boise State no way, are they kidding me? They would not last beyond the first quarter if they play OSU. Izzy, I am still shaking my head that you actually watched that movie lol, I haen’t seen Monster with Charlize Theron, but I heard that it was good, she is good enough actress. TGS released date is 12/22
IZZY- Just read you are a fan of Jessica Lange.I am too. Got 2 of her movie from the library. BROKEN FLOWERS, with Bill Murray and DON”T COME KNOCKING with Sam Shepard. Also in the later pic. is a really oldie star, Eva Marie Saint.
Both are wonderful movies. . JLange and S.Shepard, Just like the Sarandon/Robbins, Russell/Hawn has shown the naysayers that love ,partnership and family commitment will survive without that piece of paper-marriage contract.
I know the Jolie-Pitt relationship will last as long as those couples I mentioned above. It’s been almost 2 yrs. after his divorce and the recent sightings with their beautiful children are positive indications of a loving relationship.
Thanks to JJ and Audrey- Best site for Jolie-Pitt fans.
I should say ‘Separation not Divorce.
Some of you are really excellent re- Jolie-Pitt-timelines.
My apologies…….
Looks like we’re co-opting this thread, cool lol Original Curious, I’m glad you loved the update…but how about Howard? He’s was being pretty b*llsy w/ his porky pig and “Cheney will shoot you too” line. Although I agree, Kerry does have thick hair.

Hiya Original jpf, great post, thanks for posting it and I agree. And I think that Angie does the same thing as well, she goes to places where she knows that the media would follow her and she turns the media spotlight not on herself but on those places and the plight of the people living in those places and let the world see how these people are suffering and that something need to be done to help them.
Have a good day yourself jpf

Defending the Jolie -Pitts on other sites is like explaining quantum physics to a two year old-they will NEVER get it. Funny thing is, if Brad and Angie came to their house, they would welcome them and gush all over themselves!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good Mama and Malibumom : I get your points. But you know, if they can post the most racist and vile comments everytime a Zahara picture goes up on those threads then certainly they can put up with my ranting about how wonderful Brangelina is.
Too often people like that want to shut you up by being racist and cruel - I can’t even repeat some of the things I have heard on that thread. I have even emailed Dlisted on how offensive and racist I think some of the posters are and they should be banned but it is hard to ban them.
I made a decision, particularly when my little niece was born who is part black and part white, that whenever racists spill their venom, I would argue right back with them. They want us to crawl in a hole and say nothing.
It may be a losing battle but I’m willing to fight it. On a Madonna tread with a picture of David Banda on her back, one poster said Madonna had “a monkey on her back”. That is unacceptable and foul. So that is why I talk back to them.
Last, they should not think I represent ALL BAMZS fans just as much as Zahara and David Banda do not represent all little black kids. I do the same in my office with people who indirectly support Mel Gibson’s tirades, etc. I go out of my way to set them straight. It may not get through but it is, for me, worth the fight.
I work in Entertainment, in Los Angeles, and you would think people would be more open minded here but you will be alarmed to hear some comments made even toward Angelina - who many have never even met. Jealousy, I tell ya.
Hope you all are having a good morning.

JA is at home laughing and is very happy, but she has to find a new man !!!! It is a pity she wasted time with a shallow heart. Dating fakes is easy, just go to Gold’s gym. The Walmart women need Brad more than Jen wanted him.

When Aniston can do a project and it’s promotion without making it about Brad and their breakup, then I’ll believe she’s moved on and is happy. It’s going on two years and it’s still all about him.
No wonder Vaughn dumped her sad ass. I’d be a bit peeved too, if everything circled back to a man that ran so fast away from her that she’s still tasting his dust.
Holy Moley, a weekly British gossip e-mail service that is similar to popbitch, is reporting that Jennifer Aniston has been visiting Vince Vaughn on the London set of his new film, and that she’s quite obviously pregnant. I thought these two were broken up a long time ago, and if Aniston is in London why haven’t we seen pictures? Oh, that’s right, no one gives a **** about her any more.
Also, the power-players on the set (we all know it’s the drivers) report than Jennifer Aniston has been dragging her huge chin there to watch her beau spin out strands of comedy magic, and she’s quite obviously lugging a mini-Vince around in her womb as she’s sweating for two.
The poor sods who have to do the real acting (learning words and not just standing there with a quizzical look and gurning), Paul Giametti and John Michael Higgins, are described as “lovely”.
[From the Holy Moley weekly e-mail newsletter]
Holy Moley also reports that Vaughn is rewriting the script of his new film between takes, delaying production and probably costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.
I thought Aniston was pregnant when she looked a bit paunchy at the premieres of “The Break Up,” back in June but that turned out not to be true. If she’s pregnant now it might be just what she needs to get some publicity and get her career back on track. She most likely realizes this. I’m not saying she convinced Vince to leave the condom off or anything, but it seems possible to me - if this suspect gossip is even true. Life & Style was also calling her pregnant in June. It’s possible she is visiting Vince and she just has a little bitty tummy.

I agree with GM. I was over on DLISTED a few weeks back and I forget what thread I was in ( it was not even about B&A) and I saw TLC’s name yelling about B&A being the best. I was slightly cringing thinking damn we are not all like her. Of course people see some of the crazy B&A fans and lump us all together.

Lainey said the same thing on Friday.
Oh, please let her be pregnant. Because if Aniston is indeed pregnant and if she married VV, then she will stop talk about Brad.
I also meant to say to ritzy,
What’s the matter, your photo agency can’t find them and you’re here doing their scut work. What, do you get a little bonus if you locate them?

Also PS: The word Brangelunatic is a word started while back by anti-Angie nutsos before I started posting- used on Perez Hilton I have heard - a site I have practically given up on it’s so juvenile. At the same time the word Fanistons was being used. Like they say, Sticks and Stones may break my bones….oh you know the rest.
When did my America become so populated with so much hatred and awfulness? I did not have a sense of it until the blogging culture and it horrified me to think that such awful people exist in our country. Why is this?
I guess important to focus on the good ones though. But I was raised to be a tough chick who puts up a good fight for good causes. Thus my screen name…:)
My mom used to take me to Silence=Death AIDS marches in the 80’s when no one would even look at peopel with AIDS. And they used to call us “f—g lovers”. I did not get what everyone was screaming about but I knew for some reason my mom was doing something right. PPS: Now, I know why my mom’s buddies were always wearing pink when I was a kid - hmmm!

Oh please! X is supposed to be pregnant since the divorce according to tabloids and gossip. Those rumours have been around for tow years already and never proven to be true. Huvane just have to recycle old stories to keep her in the news in any way he can. And it’s widely known that any British publication and especially their tabloids are printing outright lies about everyone. Plus if she was really pregnant she would have been out in public so everyone can see it. It’s just another Havuniston PR game.

But we scream out how much we love them here, don’t we? And we are really good at silencing the haters here, aren’t we? Why not elsewhere?
If they can call Angelina “whorelina” or say she is a homewrecker or call her “buying babies of color” or say Zahara is I won’t repeat then my instinct is to say how much I love them and how much I loathe how the media has turned Angelina into the Devil woman and Aniston some sort of Saint.
The whole thing is quite sexist. Goes back to literature like The Scarlett Letter where a woman who is sexual and beautiful must be stoned and ostracized whereas the non threatening woman, Aniston, is canonized as some Mother Theresa.
Funny the woman who is helping orphans is not canonized.
Those racists and sexists on Dlisted want you to be silent. Silence=Death. Well maybe not death in this case…
(that was a little dramatic)
Team Lara Croft, cool
so, you work in the film industry, yes?
I’m just happy that the truth, what we’ve known all along, is now common knowledge.
Angelina is a kind hearted woman first, and a talented beautiful actress second.
Brad was a long suffering husband who literally “escaped” from a loveless marriage.
X is a bitter conniving women who’s greatest tragedy is that she lost her membership to the film industry’s A-list club
TRL, whatever. You keep doing whatever you feel you need to do. But just so you know that all your tough chick talk has made you the main reason some of us dont even post on boards no more. While you trying to wave yor banner, you run off fans who not trying to do nothing but say they like B&A and be done with it. I hope you feel good about that. I hope that works for you.

VV is pretty smart guy. It was he who wanted JA in the Breakup. Think about it.
What was she going through at the time time? And how fast the movie was released after it was made? VV is genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, your mom sounds wonderful. And I was called a “homo lover” once too but this person was a total nut. She confirmed her lunacy when I lobbed a softball at her calling her “close minded” she went insane lol
What’s TRL??
Total Request Live I believe.
deena, team lara croft — the queen of blogs
hey I’m watching the saints game and I was thinking maybe Brad and Angie took the fam to the superdome to see the saints play SF. maddox would love it. I’ll keep an eye out.
Team Lara Croft should be encouraged in a positive way. She’s not the enemy.
Translation in CAPS:
“It was great to have Brad there, to have that buoyancy.
HE’S AN AIRHEAD
Brad’s open and funny, and he makes me laugh.
AIRHEADS ARE FUN
He makes me think about the style of a film in a way I hadn’t thought about it before.
HIS POINT OF VIEW IS LOW RENT AND I CANT RELATE
He asks questions about the script that I wouldn’t even conceive of asking.
HE’S AN IDIOT WHO WASTES TIME AND DOESN’T KNOW BASIC ACTING. THAT’S WHY THE MOVIE SUCKED
He’s a very aesthetic being, and I’m probably quite an emotional being.
HE’S SHALLOW AS **** AND HAS NO DEPTH.
So for me, selfishly, he brings that out in me.”
HE MAKES ME FEEL LIKE BEING SHALLOW BECAUSE OTHERWISE THERE’S NO WAY TO TALK TO HIM.
Alexanderina: I think that Boise State is a joke, also. An ESPN reporter said that, based on the fact that they were the only other undefeated team, that they should play Ohio St. - my bet is that it will be Florida against Ohio St. and USC vs. UM at Rose Bowl…. Monster is well worth it, just to see Charlize’s performance, if you get the chance.
Avid Fan: Thanks for the suggestion on J. Lange movies. I have not seen “Don’t Come Knockin” but I will look for it. “Broken Flowers” was a very sweet movie, and it was good to see her back on the big screen.
Re: X’s rumored pregnancy - I was waiting for something about her to surface pretty quickly, now that we are approaching Award Season and TGS is about to premiere in NY. The pregnancy rumor is so old, I don’t know how anyone would believe that again. X and the VV will probably be ready to walk down the aisle…of course we don’t know what aisle that may be….should be a GOOD show to watch. Some of her best acting is done by her playing someone interesting….do they give awards for that ?
Talk to you after the announcement of the BCS……Enjoy your days…going to the mall (all at once…..U G H )
It is so nice to be able to converse about topics and not be attacked…and for that I thank you guys. I hope that they add the end of BAMZS soon!
Last sentence should have said “I hope that they add TO the end of BAMSZ soon” (as in have another child enter their live
