Hello, Babel, Bye Bye, Dreamgirls

Your late, I already Posted This. Lol.

I knew Dreamgirls was not going to get nominated for best pisture.

If the Oscars were a “Popularity Contest” Ryan Gosling would not have been nominated for Half Nelson. He isnt as Famous as the other nominees to many people. and that film was not seen by ALOT of people. He’s a good actor and its a great film

So i must disagree with you. [#5]

Brad will have divided loyalties on Oscar night as Babel is up against The Departed in many categories, including Best Picture. As executive producer of The Departed, he stands to benefit more finally from a win by The Departed but his reputation as an actor would be elevated if Babel wins. I’m pulling for both films.

Why is Meryl Streep there? Her role in The Devil Wears Prada wasn’t all of that. Besides, she wasn’t the star of the movie, Anne Hathaway was.

…dumb.

Brad not being nominated has nothing to do with Jennifer. Brad gave a stellar performance but he had about half an hour screen time in an ensemble cast where there were many strong performances. Brad is the Hollywood heavyweight and Jennifer was the one being pulled along by his coattails. Hollywood will not snub Brad over Jennifer…only some people in the public are doing that. Hollywood leading men have forever moved on from wife to wife…lover to lover…and the more the merrier, the bigger their reputation.

As for Dreamgirls being snubbed because the movie is overwhemingly black . I don’t think so. Eight nomination, come on. The truth is Oscar likes quirky plots and the Dreamgirls plot has been told over and over and lived over and over. It really was a lightweight film in terms of subject matter, but well acted and well-performed. Isn’t Dreamgirls the plot of many boy band and girl group that made it and didn’t make it?

Why wasn’t Annette Bening nominated for Best Supporting Actress for Running with Scissors like she was for the Golden Globes?

My Opinion, The winners would be-

BEST PICTURE: The Departed.

BEST ACTOR: Will Smith, The Pursuit of Happyness or DiCaprio, Blood Diamond.

BEST ACTRESS: Helen Mirren, The Queen.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR: Djimon Hounsou, Blood Diamond.

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS: Abigail Breslin, Little Miss Sunshine.

Although I love Jennifer Hudson, I would looooooove it if Adriana Barraza pulled an upset. I really was impressed with her work.

I hope Babel wins.

And I hope Brad goes to the Oscars with Angie, to support Babel and the cast of the movie.

Whoo congrats to Babel and the Departed for getting the nods. Babel has so many..another whoo!! I cant wait for the oscars.

I’m so mad that Little Children was ignored from the top categories!

It should be given the award for best cinematography now.

I haven’t seen The Departed, so I can’t comment, but as for Leo being nominated for BA for Blood Diamond, he has little chance to win. He was great in the movie though, but not best actor for the year.
I am rooting for Pene Cruz and Rinko, and Babel, of course.

Go Djimon Hounsou! I dont care about the rest.

It’s time for DIJMON HOUNSOU (sp?) to get an oscar, EDDIE MURPHY (who really surprised me in Dreamgirls) doesn’t stand a chance here.

I really want JENNIFER HUDSON to win (for some personal reason) but that little gal in “Babel” was great too. We’ll see.

cant wiat to see angie and brad again on the red carpet! sad thing is why isnst brad nomitaed for an acti9ng category!??? why!??? he should be! hs acting is superb!

Djimon Hounsou’s [Blood Diamond] role was so intense from Beginning to End he does deserves it.
I’m sure the Academy will reward him not only for this film but his body of work thus far.

I am not watching the Oscars, unless BP is there. These people are so stupid.

Thanks Jared for the new thread. Disappointed that Brad wasn’t nominated, but I am happy Babel was nominated for best picture, and Alejandro for best director, and the two ladies for BSA; super glad that Djimon Housou was nominated and also glad that Jennifer Hudson was nominated as well.

She is dead now, but she never was black listed by the industry….

OOps.. she WAS black listed ///

I am sorry but not interested in these people. Honestly BP was the only reason I watched the Golden Globes. BP is a power player and to be snubbed will hurt the ratings unless he graciously agrees to attend.

I don’t get it - why did Clint Eastwood’s movie about Iwojima get nominated for best movie when it was nominated in the foreign language film category for the GGs? Doesn’t the Oscars have a foreign language film category? Why if there is no english spoken in that movie can it be considered for best movie?

I think I agree with someone somewhere who said that Clint gets nominated so they can kiss his butt. What the hell is so great about him anyway?

I hope Brad and Angie go to the ceremonies to support Babel, but you never know. I don’t remember Brad’s name even being mentioned as a producer of the Departed at the GGs, and I wonder why that is so?

And Leo was nominated for Blood Diamond rather than The Departed? Well, more of a chance for Forest!
++++++++++++++++++
I agree, he had better chances with The Departed, The envelope yesterday made a mention about this, since WB was the studio behind The Departed and Blood Diamond, most voters were confused with his campaing and lack of it actually. The Studio wanted to make profit of both films but in that process they kind of left Leo in a weird position. Plus he had the problem that some voters maybe put him in the BSA category and his votes split. With Brad some say they had the same problem according to the Envelope some voters put him in the lead category and maybe that’s why his votes split and since he wasn’t a favorite that made a impact. Plus is a fact that without the SAG nomination, he didn’t had much chance.

Dreamgirls, I don’t know too much hype maybe? but don’t tell there was some Clint ass kissing here.

How much you wanna bet that the Academy will try to get Angelina as a presenter this year? Brad can’t be one since he was on the list to be nominated but I’m sure the producers are nervous as hell about the ratings of the Oscars. They need some mega watt star power. Look at the nominees.
=====================================================
You might be right. Remember their ratings last year? They had the _, but the ratings went down anyway. No one was interested in her. But the Academy might be looking at the GG ratings, and get Angelina to present. Can’t Brad present with her? I didn’t know you couldn’t present if you were on the list to be nominated. But since he wasn’t, couldn’t he present instead, and with his lady love?

____________________________________________________________

Man that would be something but the two of them together would draw snickers. It would be like TomKat presenting together or Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson. It’s too cutsey even for that part of the American crowd that loves couples to do everything together. But they really need to bring in the big guns to make a decent program. Heart throbs like Leo & Ryan G can’t sustain a 4 hour show. I love Helen Mirren & Meryl, Clint and Peter O’ Toole but it’s already starting to turn into ‘Grandma’s Oscars”. No offense to anyone on this blog. They really need to spice it up with cool, hip, beautiful & diverse presenters. Just sayin……

Without Angelina and Brad on the red carpet or on stage as presentor, this would be just another blah like the SAG awards. No thanks…not watching the whole thing if B&A are not there. I’ll wait to look at the dresses on the Internet or the tabs while waiting at the checkout counter.

Who goes to the stage and picks up the Oscar for the best movie and keeps it?

What a bummer for Brad. After all those crap about the GG RC I wonder if they’ll bother to go to the Oscars.

Since Brad’s not nominated I’ll be rooting for Djimon Honsou. I’m sure Maria will be happy her man got nominated.

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

I am very disappointed BP didn’t get a nomination either, but hopefully like me you will support Babel because it was a great movie and it is an honor for him to have been in it. :)

Maybe someone with knowledge about the behind-the-scenes politics of these things can help out here. It seems to me that the best picture award is between The Departed and Babel. Babel seems to be truly a one-of-a-kind original film to me, whereas I think I read The Departed was a remake of a Japanese film that had been done earlier? So in that case it seems Babel would have the edge. But Babel was also a smaller, indie-type movie while The Departed was a much more box office, commercial success movie. Not sure how much either of these things figure into the academy’s decision.

Oops I forgot The Departed and Leo D., I am Leo was nominated, and Martin S. for best director as well and happy that the Departed was also nominated for best picture, but I want Babel to win for best picture

have either Brad or Angelina ever presented at the Oscars?

BABEL FOR BEST PICTURE.

was that for me? thanx

Merhaba Medi,
How are you feeling? I hope you’re well.

I feel so sad that Brad did not get nominated, I was thinking this morning before they were announced how happy it would be at the Jolie-Pitt house with Brad’s parents there and all. They would have had a big ol celebration..
But alas Brad has a beautiful life with his love and their children. Just really sucks right now. :(

The Departed was nominated and Brad being producer (Plan B) might appear (hoping) but i want Babel to win for best picture

I am sad that Brad was not nominated as well. I wanted for him an Oscar win to
place next to Angie’s at home. Two beautiful oscars for two beautiful people. That
would have been so sweet.

Is there a nomination for best producer?

wasn’t Brad Grey involved in the Departed?
+++++++++++++
Yes, but the Academy hasn’t announced which producers will get the nod for The Departed and Little miss sunshine.

lol Piper I’m not sulking I just feel bad… Yikes..
I know Brad’s life is wonderful with Angie and the kids. . I just really loved this movie and his performance in it… I have been a Brad fan for years and years and I really thought this was going to be his year for a nomination that’s all.

cheers for the advice.
No sulking I promise.

[Fug Face Maniston] Says:

You’re sweet thanks for asking

I hope that he get nominated for Best Producer catergory. It would be really good for Plan B. Was Brad Grey and Brad both involved with the Departed.

How does this work them?

Do they both get there names as co-producers, which one of them is really the boss? Brad Grey left Pan B right?

So many questions and why is it taking them so long to determine the nominees? Has this ever happen before?

Brad Grey was involved in Dreamgirls, Babel and The Departed. The way he was at the GG’s you can bet he will try his best to be on the ballot for The Departed and Babel as top producer.

Mark Wahlberg? Please. He’s an okay actor and that’s about it. And even though I like Alan Arkin, his part in Little Miss Sunshine was easy–just a cranky, foul-mouthed grandpa–and then he was off the screen. I’m sure Brad didn’t get nominated because of the size of his role, but it’s too bad.

Obviously most of you don’t have much of a life

This coming from the very person that read all the posts enough to comment on them. Why is it that those that can’t formulate a complete opinion fall back on the “you don’t have a life” complant? If you don’t like it here how about not posting? You are not under any arrest to do so. Perhaps its YOU that needs to get a life.

Hey everyone. The BAFTA Awards will be coming up. They are the British version of the Academy Awards. Brad Pitt is listed as first among the 3 producers for The Departed. So Brad’s been nominated for a BAFTA. No too bad. You know the Brits take their theatre & film seriously. I think the awards will be given out on Feb 11 at Royal Albert hall in London. If the BAFTA’s have him there musch less FIRST, you can probably bet he is one of the producers nominated for The Departed for the Academy. Brad is everywhere!!!!!

“I’m sure Brad didn’t get nominated because of the size of his role, but it’s too bad.”
___

You’re correct, he didn’t get nominated because of the size of his role, he wasn’t the lead, and he wasn’t even in the whole film. but the obsessed fans don’t see that, they want him nominated for everything, even if he doesn’t deserve it. Babel was a great film and Brad’s role was about very good. But people need to get over it, a lot of people who should and could have been nominated didn’t. Brad has many of years ahead of him to get Nominated and Win. complaining about him being “snubbed” makes him and all his “fans” look bad.

============================

ITA!

The acting nominee list for the SAG awards this weekend is identical to the nominees named this morning. It’s the same people voting. so if you want to get a sneak peek at who will win the Oscars, look at who wins this weekend.

Thank you for saying that. Personally, I would’ve loved it if Akeelah and the Bee got a nod, but on the other hand, I had the pleasure of watching a very good film. Those who ridicule without the benefit of seeing Babel are missing out on a great flick.

NYCGalnVA
+++++++++
I agree again, because let’s face it if he was making a big thing to get the producer nod, people will call him Oscar hungry just like they are doing with Brad Grey, so I think it’s a smart move on his part.

Tom Cruise, he’s VERY smart, I wouldn’t put him off just yet, his moves post Paramount kicking his ass were good, especially his next movie with Robert Redford and Meryl S. His case is very interesting because you can see how much effect it has on a movie star when they don’t have a good PR team. Now that his PR team is back he’s getting back on the horse. I wouldn’t be surprised if next year when the Oscar nominations are announced his name is there.

I hope this year the academy FINALLY gives Martin S an Oscar but with Clint on the competition again I don’t know what to think anymore.

Congratulations to Babel for the seven nominations.I really believe that this great movie deserves the Oscar for the best picture.As for Brad not being nominated i have to admit,i got a little disappointed at first because he is really,really touching in that role.But that’s ok,we have new films to wait that will probably get him nomination for “best actor” and then we will take our revenge.
As for those people who say that he now won’t appear at the Oscar’s,i have to disagree.Of course he will be there since his movie got so many nominations.And i’m sure that the producers of the show,will die to have him and Angie there,so i believe that at least one of them will be a presenter.
Even though he is not nominated,he and Angie will be again the stars of the night.And let the haters the next day express their jealously as loud as they wish.

I understand about people being depressed,disappointed. I was depressed when Denzel Washington didn’t win for [Malcolm X], he Lost to Al Pacino in [Scent of a Women]. But you have to understand the Academy. They have a Habit of Making it up to people who should have been nominated and who have been but didn’t win. Just like Denzel, he didn’t win for Malcolm X, but he did for Training Day, Training Day was a Good film, but far from his best work. A lot of Actors win for in that same situation.

I have no doubt in my mind, Brad will win for Best Actor in the near future. And with the type of films he’s now making he’ll probably win more than 1

[Fug Face Maniston]
+++++++++++++++++
Yes, it’s true the same happend with Paul Giamatti where he got truly snub for Sideways and the next year he got a nom for Cinderella Man. I was really sad when Adrian Brody won over Daniel Lewis, he was just amazing in Gans of New York.

Don’t mis-understand me (some trolls are sorta slow) I KNOW he didn’t get nominated-the movie did so to me it’s all the same-

The Departed: Brad Pitt & Graham King, Producers.

Just went & fed the chickens & remembered the film - Shakespeare in Love, the one GP got a BA oscar for as well. (I think it was the same movie!)

Okay, please do NOT tell me THIS is a coincidence - this has happened twice now.

On the day of the GOLDEN GLOBES, we get the PRESS ANNOUNCEMENT, that MANISTON will be GUEST STARRING on the HACK TV SHOW, DIRT.

Now on the day of the ACADEMY AWARDS we get the PRESS ANOUNCEMENT about what MANISTON’S ROLE WILL ENTAIL.

Really strategic timing Stephen…HUVANE is DELIBERATELY trying to have her occupy air time on the day of huge industry events.

Like, ‘Gee — ET will surely cover the Academy Award announcements today, this will insure that Maniston gets squeezed into coverage that features Brad in some capacity.’

Pathetic.

BABEL YOU ARE THE BEST !ça était realisé au maroc donc c’est sur que j’adorerais et sans aucun doute même!!!

Oh come on ……do these people really want to infuriate Brad?

i mean really now, nominating Will Smith and Kate Hudson but not him?

————————————–WHORES———————————————-

How many people decide anyway?

I’m happy with all of the nominations - but I dont get the Jennifer Hudson love (didnt care for her when she was on idol either, that whole neck and eye rolling thing whenever she ended up in the bottom 2 or 3 got to me). Take away her singing, then her “acting” in Dreamgirls was just meh. If they want to reward her singing ability then give her a frickin’ Grammy. But since the category is for best supporting ACTRESS, then Adrianna or Abigail (or Cate and Rinko, for that matter) deserve the nod over her… hands down.

That’s what she’s been reduced to. A cameo on a low rated show on an up & coming cable channel kissing her real life bff. Whatever——————>

Oscar snub you are still a moron. Why did you waste your time posting here? ‘Don’t you have any family members or friends (doubtful) who are concerned for your mental well-being?’ LOL.

to the oscar snub idiot.. So does your snub theory hold true for the like of Matt Damon Jack Nicholson both from the departed ? Ben Afflek were they all snubbed too. Or just Brad, He was the only one snubbed?

SO TRUE

i can now see that Anistons and her PR they dont want the triange to go, she want to use Pitt fame to make her own success.

Well always believe something both good and bad have a reward let them continue and the end of everything Pitt still have something to be proud of that is his beautiful family.

sorry for my english am from russia and english is not my language.

All ther BAMZS fans should keep on the good work of supporting the Jolie-Pitt family.

The BAMZS are here to stay and live for long.

CLINIQUA #114

You are soo right on about this one.
its like he doesn’t think people are going to notice what he’s been doing for the past two freaking years. Aniston is pathetic for letting him to it. Doesn’t she have enough money to retire of fug face already?

This probably got gobbled up in the last thread so I’m reposting.
Original curious, Estelle, Alex, hunnybunny, and AG, I’ve updated MB2 and Ag I don’t know if you were around but I posted chapter 8 over the weekend.
http://intothegray.blogspot.com/2007/01/chapter-9.html

People just kill me.

While some BAMZS fans are still voicing their disappointment, I’m sure that they’ll work it out of their system… sooner than two years, that’s for sure.

As for those who feel that poetic justice has occurred, please, get it together.

It’s just like saying that Dreamgirls didn’t get a nod for best pic because they wronged Jennifer Holliday…

It’s just like saying that Jack got snubbed due to the shabby way he treated Anjelica Huston, Lara Flynn Boyle, and dozens others…

It’s just like saying that Steve Carell got passed over because he’s doing double-duty in both films and television.

It’s like saying that ___ got passed over last year because Derailed and RHI cancelled each other out. Only if it was a competition for which sucked more.

Brad Pitt has ambition and fortunately for him, he has his rivalry with Clooney, which may inspire him to do even better works; he has his rivalry with Angelina, both of whom admitted that their competitive streak yielded benefits for the two of them; and most of all, he has a rivalry between he and his younger self. His current self has experienced disappointments and setbacks and I’m sure that he sat down and examined his wrong turns; and he knows that there are opportunities to be had without courting the press or the disgruntled princesses.

Fortunately, all of these ‘rivals’ aren’t out to defeat or conquer him– they are all out for better, period. And hopefully, the audience will reap their toils.

BTW… isn’t it funny that the press isn’t forcing Clooney to eat his hat after he publically proclaimed that Cate Blanchett was a shoe-in for The Good German? Curious, huh…

Yessssss! Go George Clooney.

Oh wait…er…please disregard my last post…I was..err…that was in my dreams. Oh man, No BP , no GC? What are we supposed to do for eye candy?

I read that Aniston had a brow lift, boob job, botox… and the list goes on.

I wasn’t on board on this theory of Cliniqua’s, thinking, oh, come on, this can’t be true, he can’t be that powerful — but I was just watching Extra on NBC and what did I see — sure enough, they were talking about the lesbian kiss between _ and CCox on Dirt as one of their top stories (not sure if it was THE TOP story, because I switched channels kinda after the program started). And they really stretched the story to about 2-3 minutes (which is LOOOOONG on entertainment television), even mentioning the supposed kiss between CCox and _ on Season 4 of Friends.

Cliniqua, I BOW TO YOUR SUPERIOR INTUITION. YOU ARE SO FREAKING RIGHT!!!

African Girl Says: January 23rd, 2007 at 5:26 pm

lol I guess we just have too :). I am doing good, just busy at work, but then again what else is new. How about you?

I just got done watching [Spy Game] with Mr. Pitt. No matter how many times i watch it. Still Entertaining

She’s been quietly and stealthily insinuating herself back into our lives for the past month.
How do I know? Well, I believe I read a while ago that the page six guy has no love for her because they had sort of a tiff, if I remember correctly. Even Paula Froelich (also Page Six)referred to her a plain, but the all of a sudden - page six is writing suggestive blind vices - this is after they were threatened by Vince back in October. Then Brad’s parent’s supposed visit which she never denied.
Liz Smith wrote a positive column about Angie, the next day or so, she did an about turn saying almost the opposite of what she had said about Angie. Next it was People’s Choice, then GGTOU premiere, then all of a sudden, all of these negative items about Angie. Remember, it was the NY Post that first posted Angie’s Vogue interview in pieces with the headline “How I Stole Brad” All of these things not the full truth but with enough truth to cause a problem for Angelina.
Even her People’s Choice acceptance praising Vince. You think that was not deliberate? This is all about trying to distance herself from her pitiful image and the magazine are playing into it. I thought it was interesting that Ted C or someone said something about how People magazine never writes mean thing about people “unless a publicist tells them to.” I thought that was an interesting statement.
People, the machinery is at work here, and that is to get JA a better image than the one she’s been peddling the last few years and at the same time damage Angie’s rep. That’s what this is really about. The worse people think about Angie the better JA looks. You know, like the lesser of two evils. The problem is Angie does not play that game and because of that, JA and her publicist have a slight advantage when it comes to gaining public sympathy. As you know, I worship Angie but if I were her, I would step my game up a bit. Show that square chinned heffa who is the boss. Afterall she is the most beautiful woman in the world. Show up at the Oscar wearing fabulous, glorious red, with hair cascading down. Invite Barbara Walters for a chat - show her home and hearth. Images of beautiful Shiloh and Zahara in the background calling for Mom. Brad doing his bit, making spahetti for the fam or whatever.
Believe me, this would be in stark contrast to JA’s little lesbo episode. Which I personally do not think is that much of a stretch.
Many people here do not like Lainey, but Lainey is right about her conspiracy theories as you are now seeing.

I am sure the most important thing for Brad is that he has his family, but it must be a little disappointing for him, Did you see his face when they were saying the bsa nominees at the Golden Globe? He looked so hopeful. I just read an article by Roger Ebert….

“Perhaps surprisingly, Brad Pitt, who gave his best-ever performance in this film, was passed over. The amazing and imaginative Spanish-language “Pan’s Labyrinth” by Mexican director Guillermo del Toro also garnered an original screenplay nomination for del Toro.”

I agree with him, I saw Babel and I did not see Brad Pitt, I saw Richard. Brad Pitt is so humble, but I don’t think he would have sat down with Newsweeks Oscar Roundtable, if he didn’t hope to win an Oscar. It seems that certain actors get awards and some don’t . Brad has been going at this actor thing for 15 years, and I hope to see him get credit that is due to him.

i dont care about the oscar nominations.alli want is for brad and angie to stay together,because they are perfect together.i dont know if you all will believe me.when brad was still with aniston,i dont care about him even if i saw some of his movies in the past due to my friends invitations.i saw him in troy and meet joe black, but i didnt see the charisma yes he is gorgeous and very hot with so much sex appeal.but when i heard that brad is doing a movie with angelina, oh gosh i nearly fell off the chair, coz i really like aj since her tomb raider days. all my friends say she is just perfect to the role.since then i was hooked to both of them especially when they became a real couple.i always thought they are the real deal, yes it is difficult to accept but that is the truth, BP and AJ are just PERFECT.

I don’t believe in idols. Cliniqua says things that I want to say exactly and better. Some people are so scared of appreciating other people who can do things better than themselves, that’s why they try to bring them down. I am a Jolie-Pitt fan because I admire what they do. People who try to bring others down when it is obvious they are doing well are the ones who are truly pathetic.

The reason why I say a big congratulations to Brad too is that all the success came after a very difficult year for the JPs in the press. Both Brad and Angie represented grace under pressure. To every pressure whether negative or positive I wish you many more successes.

I second that motion. Thank you!!

Congratulations to all the nominees in every category.

And especially congratulations to Babel for getting the honour to be nominated as the Best Picture!!

Congratulations to Brad, Cate ,Adriana, Riko, Gael, Alehandro and all the contributors that made this extraordinary film with some of the best performances I’ve ever seen on screen. Defiantly one of the favourite movies of our time.

Brad will have many chances in the future. I don’t mind that he is not nominated now. Babel is, Alehandro is, Adriana and Riko is, The Departed that he co-produced is so Brad is a winner none the less.

He has a wonderful family that it’s the most important thing for him and he has a “fullfiling” life now and his happy right where he is. (his words not mine) :)

I’m so eager to see their upcoming films. I can’t wait.

Friends

My husband just watched “The Queen” the other day. We don’t find anything extra ordinary about that movie. What do you think? maybe we’ve not really learnt to appreciate good movies. My husband says he likes the man who acts as Tony Blair more than Helen Mirren as Queen Elizabeth. What do you think?

IMO, all these negative press are the work the agency Angie fired last year . here’s the article

==============================================
April 27, 2006
EXCLUSIVE: Angelina Jolie Fires CAA!
——————————————–
I have just learned that Angelina Jolie has fired her talent agency CAA after 13 months there. This is a huge loss, the biggest in quite some time for that agency which has a history of keeping its marquee clients in the fold. Oscar-winner Jolie right now is inarguably the top actress in the world in terms of salary, talent and heat. And she’s just made the cover of People as “World’s Most Beautiful” (and stares out from newsstands every week). All CAA would confirm to me this afternoon was that “she is no longer a client.” CAA also told me that Brad Pitt is still a client. Before Angelina went to CAA in March 2005, Jolie was represented by just her manager at Media Talent Group. When she and MTG decided she needed an agent, she met with every major agency in town, then chose CAA. Presently, the very pregnant actress has been relaxing in Namibia with Brad Pitt and her two children.

==================================================

Also, Kate JHusdson just fired CAA as her agency last Nov .

===================================================

I smell desperate sh*t at agency. CAA boss -= Kevin Huvane = oldest bro of Stephen Huvane = smelly sh*t

It was with a heavy heart to learn that Brad did not get nominated for the Best supporting actor category but I have to comfort myself with his answer to EXTRA TV when asked about his chances for the Oscar’s when Babel had a red carpet in LA and he travelled 20 hours from India and also left the following day, he said he doesn’t really need any awards in his life because he is happy as it is. As affirmation to where his priorities are, the Newsweek roundtable, his interview with Ann C at the Today show ,he has always emphasized being a father as the most extraordinary endeavour he has undertaken in his life. Parenthood, the most rewarding and “profound ” loving he is proud to have on a daily basis. There will still be other oppurtunities for him to win an Oscar with Angie on his side.
I hope Babel wins the best picture award.

LOL Aniston is the one in hiding. she doesn’t want us to know about her Brow lift and the chin and nose reshaping she has had done.

If you were making a point I missed it. So, by your Anistonian logic, the fact that we say that she can only do TV now and have no movie career, means that she and whoever cannot try to destroy Angie? Huh?
So you don’t believe that this is to increase interest in her appearance on Courtney’s show. Well then, what about plain old spite? You know that feeling? That’s the one bitter ex-wives get when their husbands move on with a younger and prettier woman than themselves.

There are many articles (not related to Brad/Angie fan sites) that said Angie is the ONLY A-lister who doesnt have a publicist. How can this be lie? This is public knowledge in the industry. You are behaving like your idol Aniston, lies. If you want to write lies, at least write something convincing. Angie is not like your idol Aniston. Your Aniston lied all the time. You remember Jen lied even about the relationship with Vince?

Brad is now in New Orleans. Angie is in Vietnam. What’s wrong if you havent heard from them? Do they have to make news everyday?
They are busy actors, not like you. You have nothing to do but to hate.

That is all I truly want for Brad and Angelina and their family-to prosper in love and happiness and togetherness. Brad has been nominated for an Oscar before and will be again. On the other hand there may exist just one shot at having a life with the love of your life, and that’s way more important than an award. Awards don’t greet you at the door with hugs and warm kisses, and comfort you when you need it, or curl up in your lap, they are made of inflexible cold metal.

Montserrat - You can’t have it both ways. You guys all keep saying JA is done in Hollywood - no more movies - can only guest star on Dirt because of CC. On the other hand you all have conspiracy theories that she is orchestrating the media bashing of Brangelina with Huvane. How can these 2 theories co-exist together? How can a Hollywood has-been get all the media riled up over Brangelina?
****************************************************************

Brangelina means $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to so many. Each on their own and together. That’s what it’s all about, the almighty dollar. Fans sites have gotten wealthy by breathlessly posting brangelina news as only fansites can. That’s why on every positive blog that put news on Brad or Angelina for FANS have been victims of theft by nasty snarky blogs who live and die by the hits they get. Haters live and die by tabloid stories so they get rich as well. Everybody wants to know what Brad & Angelina are up to. Like it or not. The ones who aren’ t are boring and not the desireable demographic. They are fabulous international couple. JA’s claim to fame is that of being Brad Pitt’s wife and her Rachel haircut on Friends. Not bad. During this time she made a lot of money. She should just kick back and be the grande dame mentoring up & coming starlets.

We will continue to want to know about the latest about Brad & Angelina and watch as their family grows. We hope they continue to bring attention to issues that Hollywood pretends doesn’t exist. At least they try.

I think people get mixed up because they don’t realize that Vietnam, like India is about a day ahead of US, so Friday there is Thursday in the US. Angelina was in Vietnam for 5-6 hours on Vietnam’s Friday (US Thursday), then flew back to NOLA and arrived there on NOLA-US Friday (which would be Vietnam Saturday). The news accounts of her visit occurance referred to Friday, and it was the VIETNAM FRIDAY, not US Friday.

The flight each way is about 20 hours, so she had to be worn out when she got back to the US, but she is dedicated and determined to help others. My hope is that someday doubters give her the credit she so deserves for her efforts (of course I am just dreaming of utopia).

Alero, what do you think of the movie? I was not at all impressed. I am even questioning whether it is Oscar material? It looks like a low budget movie. Its just my inexperience opinion.

The following is quote from Pitt in an interview done in August 2001. The article appear in Vanity Fair Dec 2001

We’ll see where it goes…I find myself looking forward to a family. It’s not that I’m self-absorbed. Anything that’s going to take the focus off myself, I welcome.”

This man wants a family ever since Agugust 2001.

This may be an old video, but, the early portion of it shows Angie walking on that stage as a presenter. She is wearing that magnificent white silk gown……I mean, God….she just takes your breath away. I am wondering if Brad was there…..and I am certain that all the men dropped their jaws as she came forward to present the award. She OWNED that moment, and still do!

Monserrat, surely Oscar Snub is much too forgiving and kind a person to have felt spite, bitterness, hold a grudge?? No no indeed, these things are banished from her mind, her soul. In fact that’s why she posts here. When she has finished making her spiteful mean comments here, she has cleansed her soul. So, she holds no bitterness, spite, jealousy, anger or grudges within her. In fact, like an innocent child, she probably doesn’t even understand sarcasm.

I’ve watched the past vidoes of when Angelina was in Namibia with Ann Curry…..you know, the Today show has been wonderful. The interview with Ann was very sweet, and this was just last April. There were so many beautiful things said by Ann Curry, Katie Couric, and Matt Lauer, about Angie. Just recently, Matt continued to compliment our lady, by saying how beautiful she is…..thank God for the Today show….

Entertainment Weekly includes Brad in their list of snubbed by the Oscars! Tribute to shoulda-been contenders. Snubbed but still loved

hey’re not nominated for the big awards on Feb. 25 — but here’s why ”Children of Men,” Brad Pitt, Emily Blunt, and others deserved to be

Snubbed for Best Supporting Actor: Brad Pitt

For the longest time, the name Brad Pitt took on a life of its own. It evoked an ideal of superhuman good looks and became synonymous with golden-boy good fortune. Pitt seemed to be on a constant crusade to scuff up his image with roles as snaggletoothed serial killers (Kalifornia) and crackpots (Fight Club, Snatch). But none of his acting pyrotechnics made a dent in his mythology — until his turn in the globe-spanning Babel, playing an aging American Everyman perched on the precipice of catastrophe. It’s the most hauntingly raw performance of his career: With less than a half hour of screen time, Pitt evolves from an embittered, checked-out husband into a man reborn with love for his wounded wife (Cate Blanchett) and his distant family. ”Beyond that handsome guy, the magic with Brad is that you can identify with him,” says director Alejandro González Iñárritu. ”There is a universality in his face that I needed for this character.” —Christine Spines

Could you please give the link to Streep’s quote about Jennifer?

I dont have link. She said it in an interview. they are going to do amovie together. Jen picked Meryl herself bc she is the producer. Meryl loves her and is very grateful to get to work with Jen.

when meryl does interviews bc of her Oscar nomination she will talk about Jen and talk about the movie they are doing together. just wait.

If she REALLY did say that she insulted every actress in JA’s generation. Seriously! Ja is at the bottom of the barrell when it comes to actresses of her gen. Not to be mean, but it’s the truth and nothing any actress will say will change that little fact!

She is just taking a break. Everyone wants to work with Jen. she is going to be so powerful this year. People will be lining up to work with her. When it comes to producing no one will be able to touch jen. She will double her wealth and become one of the most powerful actress/producers in the business.

Meryl Streep talking about future projects with no mention of anything with leatherface

THR: Aren’t you working with Redford again soon?
Streep: I have a movie (”Lions for Lambs”) with Redford in January — he’s directing and acting — about a professor and two students in Afghanistan. Tom Cruise plays a senator. I’m the investigative reporter on his ass.

THR: Why did you take such a small role in the upcoming independent film “Dark Matter”?
Streep: It’s an important part, not a big part. A friend of mine is producing it, and the story intrigued me. Chen Shi-Zheng is a Chinese director who looks at the university experience through the eyes of Chinese students in the ’90s who come here to the U.S. It was an opportunity to make connections with Chinese actors, which was very interesting. If we can’t get along with people in our own country, how are we going to manage around the world? It’s an intriguing look through others’ eyes at our culture. I also shot one day on (Focus Features’ upcoming) “Evening,” based on Susan Minot’s novel. And in the spring, I’m shooting in Russia “The Last Station,” with Anthony Hopkins, about the last days of Leo Tolstoy, directed by Michael Hoffman. I’m Mrs. Tolstoy.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Leatherface working with the great Streep is just another Huvane rumor.

I’m a bit dissapointed that Brad was not nominated in BSA. But I’m glad Babel and The Departed was both front runner in the best pic award . At the end of the day he still came out as the winner.

justsoyouknow sounds like that “chica” hag from jen thread months ago…remember her?! She’s annoying & keep on ranting the same praises & even posting poems & songs. Really this ANISTON FANS are the worst, scum of the earth & nutcases.

Jennifer Aniston and Meryl Streep are in talks to star in Wanted, according to Variety.

Yes , that news was printed since year 2005, while she was promoting one of her 3 flop films. Its 2007, my dear. no go signal for that film.

meryl loves the idea of working with Jen. Vince Vaughn and anyone who has woked for her will tell you how much they love her. Julia Roberts has not working alot and Jen will be the next Julia Roberts. She has the best legs and the most beautiful. People cant get enough of her. she is magazine gold. Everytome she is on a magazine it sells out. And when she gets nominated for an Oscar she will show up and be happy to be on the red carpet unlike some people.

Aniston sold 750,000 copies of Vanity Fair because people wants to hear her side of the story. AND THIS WAS SOLD FOR A MONTH…

People Magazine with Shiloh first photos with Brad, Angelina & Zahara there’s 2.3 Million copies sold & 1.5 Million for subscription copies & THIS IS FOR JUST A WEEK RELEASE.

W Magazine with Brad & Angelina was sold-out everywhere & when some people sold this Magazine on Ebay some copies went up to $50 US.

It’s like cuteness overload

Stop responding to her. she just wants you to continue talking about JA since the ja thread has been ditched. She is the only one who wants to talk about ja.

Part of the problem is that some Brad & Angie fans keep going over to the Jennifer Aniston fans and continuing the bullsh*t.

How ’bout in order to keep the craziness down we follow the advice always given on here an stop responding because, like people have said, the tabs are listening. The listen on both sides ya’ know. It makes us all seem like hypocrites otherwise too.

I read the article and I have reached a different conclusion. Everyone in AMPAS votes for everyone. Part of the article explained how all the Guilds in their various guild award will normally only produce 3-4 nominees on the Oscar ballot. This is referring to the Writer guild, Producers guilds and the Sags. Thanks for posting the article. The way they figure out nominees is interesting.

Angelina Jolie takes a hands-on approach to parenting Monday as she picks up son Maddox, 5, after school in New Orleans, where the actress and partner Brad Pitt have set up house while he films on location. The globe-trotting actress was just in Vietnam last week, where she took a meeting on behalf of the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Project, the charity she established to help her son’s native country of Cambodia

I’m so sad Brad didn’t get a nomination for “Babel”, especially because I just got back from watching Babel and his performance was amazing. I loved it.

Angelina Backlash, is it Justified?
Wed, 01/24/2007 - 12:20am by PopSugar •

Angelina seems to be unable to win these days. She supported her man at the Globes, headed to Vietnam for more charity work and then returned to the states to her new home. She was seen here picking up Maddox at his new school in New Orleans. However, no matter how normal Angelina tries to be, or how helpful she hopes she is to other countries, she will face bitter backlash for one reason or another. Ryan Seacrest got vocal about feeling snubbed at the Globes, and now the NY Times is taking a stab at what may be Angelina falling from grace. One thing is for sure, Angelina will always be in the headlines, whether it’s for wearing blood around her neck or helping countries in need, so the real question is can’t we all just get along?

Where was the support for her “LAST” movies, Rumor has it,,, Friends with money” LOL and Derailed. HUH, Why did all of her last 3 movies Flop Big time. She has no support, I do believe a lot of people relate to her, (women that have been dumped by their men) and I think people feel sorry for her and pity her, but they dont really like her. kind of sad to have to live the rest of your life with your peers having nothing but Pity for you.

A ‘Friend’ in need,
but not in deed?

Nancy Balbirer (below) helped Jennifer Aniston (above) get a foothold in New York before the days of ‘Friends’ fame. The reward for her trouble? Snubs from the new superstar and a rejection from the show, Balbirer claims.

Jennifer Aniston probably wishes she’d been nicer to fellow actress Nancy Balbirer, who shared a West Village apartment with her in the late 1980s.

Then maybe Balbirer wouldn’t have ratted her out the other night at Joe’s Pub, where an audience of actors and writers shrieked with laughter during an evening of readings to mark the paperback release of “The Underminer: Or, the Best Friend Who Casually Destroys Your Life.”

The 40-year-old Balbirer was among the performers who told stories of their own personal “underminers.” Balbirer’s “underminer” was “a famous sitcom actress” called “Jane” — a thinly veiled Aniston — who she met when both were auditioning to be extras on “Saturday Night Live.”

A Lowdown spy reports: “Jane, who had recently graduated from the High School of Performing Arts, was a few years younger than Nancy and was the daughter of a soap actor and a plastic-surgery victim who had divorced. Nancy let Jane live rent-free in her Village apartment for a few months.

“Nancy said Jane, who was then working at a burger joint, was obsessed with her looks, and would give herself bikini waxes while lying upside-down on the couch. The pair went on auditions, on diets, and to aerobics classes together. Jane advised Nancy to try and be ‘more f—able’ on auditions, and to buy chicken cutlets at the Food Emporium to stuff her bra. Jane iced her nipples before auditions, and lamented her big butt and her nose, which she said ‘came from her Greek half.’

“Jane moved to Los Angeles, got liposuction, a nose job and a hairline adjustment, and lost a lot of weight after going on Nutri­Slim. Nancy recounted a trip to L.A. where she asked to stay with her old friend, but instead Jane named some hotels, telling Nancy not to be so desperate, because it’s unattractive, especially in a town like L.A.

“After Jane landed a sitcom about friends who live together in the Village, Nancy independently met with the show’s producers for a recurring role, which she landed on the spot. A few hours later, she was inexplicably fired, yet paid in full, plus an extra week’s pay, despite never filming a scene. Later a producer friend told Nancy that Jane had her fired and the two old friends never spoke again.”

When Lowdown repeated the dish to Aniston, via her flack Stephen Huvane, she was not amused. “Jennifer does know this woman Nancy, and she did live with her for a little bit, but did not live rent-free,” Huvane insisted after consulting Aniston. “They were never close friends — it was not that kind of relationship.”

Huvane vehemently denied Balbirer’s claims of plastic surgery. As for the hiring-firing incident: “The girl did try out for a role on ‘Friends,’ but the girl just didn’t get it. The cast doesn’t get involved in casting — especially the first year. She just sounds like an opportunist who’s using Jennifer to get attention. This is mean-spirited.”

Balbirer told Lowdown the “Jane” story “is part of a new solo show and book I’m writing called ‘Take Your Shirt Off And Cry,’ about my life in show business and Hollywood.” And Warner Bros. has acquired movie rights to “The Underminer” for Management 360 — Vince Vaughn’s management company.
