Angelina Jolie: Hire Some Fast Elephants!

Angelina Jolie: Hire Some Fast Elephants!

You may have missed MSN’s interview with Angelina Jolie from last week. The Mighty Heart actress discussed plans for the Maddox Jolie-Pitt foundation, which she was just recently accused of abandoning, and about her kids.

Here’s how she described her 1-year-old daughter Shiloh: “Shi’s so full of light and love! She’s just a little honey and very, very funny. I think I’m recognizing some of myself in that one. She’s going to be a little bit of trouble!”

Watch Angelina’s interview with MSN here. You know you want to find out about Angie hiring those fast elephants!

UPDATE 1: Below are some pictures of Brad & Angelina on Saturday getting in some alone time in Bilbao in the North of Spain. By the looks of it, Angelina drove while Brad popped in and out of the car to take pictures. Ange also was recognized by a fellow mother and her daughter.

UPDATE 2: During their trip in Spain, Brad and Angie are staying at Hotel Marqués De Riscal in Elciego. The couple also checked out the Guggenheim Bilbao, designed by world-renowned architect Frank O. Gehry (one of Brad’s favorite architects).

yes I did, she is like a typical Indian who is greedy of money and can be a cheat or a traitor
——————-
You’re a disgusting racist.

****************

SO WHAT? IM ALSO AN INDIAN AND I DESPISE THAT NOMANI WOMAN!

Fans, the haters come here to talk about movie bomb and Asra. They want to make the thread negative. Do not take the bait. The more you contribute to negative topics, the more you miss out on seding out the positive message of the movie and enjoying the thread. Do not take the bait.

OK, I WANT TO WRITE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I AM SO EXCITED AFTER SEEING A MIGHTY HEART BUT I WON’T SO I DON’T ANNOY….OK HERE GOES:

A Mighty Heart was heart wrenching and a perfet piece of filmmaking.

ANGELINA JOLIE WILL BE NOMINATED AND MAY WIN AN OSCAR FOR THIS.

This was Angie’s BEST performance. It was unbelievable. I have never seen her so raw and effortless. Actually I have not seen this level of acting in Hollywood in a couple of years where the actor is so comfortable and not making some HUGE effort to ACT. This seemed so natural for her - so unforced.

It was out of tis world!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am telling you: GO SEE THIS FILM. You will be amazed.

I also realize why Angelina Jolie is my favorite actress. I saw a 9:30pm show last night in Los Angeles and the theater was full of interesting, racially diverse, clearly educated and worldly people. The fans she attracts and the viewers she attracts are so sophisticated adn interesting.

Whereas you go to a certain unnamed former sitcom actress’ “films” and you see you know K-MArt shoppers on their break from a Baskin Robbins run. Not that I have ever seen that former sitcom actresses’ films but I have seen te 10 women who buy her movie tickets and they are kind of appalling.

Angie’s fans and viewer base is so racially diverse They were Asians, Blacks, WHites, Gay people, all ages, well dressed, punkers, artists etc at her film. She attracts and eclectic and exciting crowd - a true symbol of what American is becoming - that is her fan base.

I also felt goo knowing that the $12.75 (yes it coest that much in LA) I spent on her films is actually supportin gDarfur and other organizations. I know this may seem farfetched but it is true. So good to go to an actor’s film and know that the money you spend on them will be respent on good causes.

Again, this performance has to be seen to be believed. I am in awe. I did not think Angie could go there so completely and she does. How does she do it? Where does this inner life come from? how does she KNOW how to act this way? I am amazed, touched, awed and completely floored.

The best performance I have seen this entire year.

My ranting is over. Go see the film adn go see it for Dannie Pearl. Dannie seems like an incredible good non-judgmental man. Thank GOd Brad made this film.

I don’t know why the fans insist on engaging the ONE idiot who keeps posting here. Don’t you realize no matter what you say nothing will ever change? If the movie made 5 million they would say it bombed. Don’t you see it’s pointless to argue with them or engage them because in their minds NOTHNG WILL EVER BE GOOD ENOUGH. So why even bother? Day after day you fans fall into the same trap.

Poor loonies, variety will call it a bomb then maybe you’ll have a reality check.
================

I am more convinced than ever that Jen’s hens are not educated. VARIETY will never say a film bombed on its first weekend of showing.

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

Why do you have such a hard on for this movie to fail? This is a 16 mil movie that has only been open 2 days in LIMITED release. It is and Indy film and I’m going to assume that you do know what that means. 6 months form now when is opens worlwide if it hasn’t made its 16 mil back then yes it is a failure in BO terms. But in 2 days it has already made almost 3 mil domestically. Whic means by Monday morning it will be at 3.7 or 4 mil. $ would be right in the market of some of the estimated projections. This means in one weakend it will have made 1/4 of its cost back 25% in one weekend in limited release. How can you not see that this movie once internationally released, (like Babel thaAt is over 100 mil) will more than make a profit.

So, It isn’t a failure, sorry.

When A Mighty Heart finished it’s run around the world, it is only then that we can count the money.

****************************************

THANK. YOU.

There were many diverse people at my viwewing as well. But to my surprise was all the seniors who attended. I did not go during the day, I saw it Friday night. Angelina has a senior fanbase too? Who knew?

Children just love Angelina. I looked at that picture of her saying hi to the baby. Remember the baby in MMS? that smile he gave to Angelina was sooo cute. In the film AMH, the baby wanted a kiss from Angelina not just a wave goodbye, LOL!!!

Thankz JAred!

AMH is small movie; if not for Angie I wasn’t to see it, even though I love it. I think Angie deserves an Oscar for her role.

love me some Joie-Pitt time!

Older people are wiser, they go to see a well done movie. They don’t bite into the triangle/team thing. I wish we (me included) could be all like that. Of course we will, one day. :lol:

AMH Box Office as of June 24 - $4,000,600

The Studio was expecting $4-5 Million for 3 days.

So far so good because we have not counted the whole weekend.

When I watched the movie last month, I was relieved that I wasn’t a servant girl, as I felt an early script had it. So I wrote to a producer, “Thumbs up okay on my end.” But I wasn’t being true to myself. I was reacting to the power and seduction of Hollywood.

fromthe Normani article
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I find this excerpt to be very telling in the Normani article. SHE GAVE THE THUMBS UP so what is she complaining about now?

Was she not thinking of Danny all along when she gave the thumbs up?

How convenient that she NOW is fighting for the image of Dannie Pearl AFTER the fact.

WHy not BEFORE THE MOVIE when they surely gave her some reward I would think for using her image?

Seduced by Hollywood and that bagel lunch with Brad Pitt - she clearly had no issues with Dannie’s image then so why whine now?????????

Also does she not get that this is what happens to any story told on film. The victim in a way becomes bigger than life and becomes a “star in a sense”. it is a weird tradeoff but why can’t she see the good in it?

Now Dannie will be forever rememberred because this film will exist forever.

Many journalists go missing but this one has a film that can potentially reach millions - what a gift to Danny.

The same can be said for Schindler’s List, Roots, Erin Brokovitch, rape stories, or any movies focusing on real life people. Once it goes on screen, the person enters a weird realm of publicity and fame. So what is the alternativ? Should all films about real life heroes be documentaries? NO! Some should be narratives and this is what happens in the narrative of a real life person. You can NEVER capture them perfectly - a special one who has died.

But that is the challenge. I find it weak of Normani to complain now. She played the game. She handed over her image. She engaged and NOW she is complaining. She is a smart woman - a Professor, a Journalist - it should not of taken seeing the DVD to know that once you portray a real life hero in a Hollywood film that hero’s family and image will be part of the red carpet thing. She should have known that.

Look at United 93: widows and widowers and children of people who died on that flight were at the Tribeca FIlm Festival premiere walking the red carpet with Robert Deniro and other famous people.

Does that minimize 911? No. It doesn’t change the reality of their pain - it just comes with the territory. Once you hand over your image to Hollywood then the cameras and red carpets follow.

Is Normani upset that she was reduced to Dannie’s “Assistant” (which I did not think she was)? DId she want a leading role? Did she want to be the star? Is THAT the problem?

The great trade-off in handing a real life person’s image to Hollywood (like United 93) is that the victims’ names will be forever remembered all around the world. I can’t think of a better celebration of Dannie Pearl’s life than that. Thank God he has tis film otherwise he’d be just another beheaded journalist.

May he rest in peace.

ntt - one day we shall be older and wiser. Mark my words…one day. :lol: :lol:

Actually, Angelina has fans too that are the mini-van majority. The media says no but she does.

This is hilarious. I know I shouldn’t tease them, but I posted a comment on FF about hoping that Maniston and her new boyf get married and have a baby, and they got a bit overexcited. “I hope she has twins!!”, “I hope she names them after Brad and Angie’s characters in MMS!!” Read it, it’s pretty funny.

http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/board/about144743-15.html

so once again I ask how is amh considered a bomb when it was expected to make 4 - 6 mil? the hater from yesterday said it wouldnt make it to 4? well? 4m and it was made for 16. they will get some indie noms too. woot!

There is a new video on splash.
Brad and Angie (although its not clear.

Caption reads: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are seen arriving at Prague airport on a private jet. The video shows Jolie and Pitt thanking the air hostess in the door of the plane before they take the steps down to their waiting car. It also shows G.V.s of the jet moving along the runway to the terminal.

Hey Dumb Dumb, newsflash:

A film about a Jewish beheaded Wall Street Journalist killed by extremists is not meant to beat Johny in Pirates or Jessica’s boobs in Fantastic Four.

If Brad Pitt wanted a megahit, he would have done Supergirl or something.

This film is an hommage to a great ordinary man. It is a call for peace. It is a tough story that is dark and painful. I don’t think anyone involved did it for box office numbers.

Just like United 93 - they are not meant to have computer animated scenes to get people to come see the films. If only 100 people see the film, that is enough of a celebration of Dannie Pearl.

These types of films are hommages. Do you know what that word means? Probably not.

Dimwit.

lizzie most B & A fans would rather not visit filthy females first.
