I don’t think that Katie turned down Batman; the producers decided to hire Maggie Gyellanhaal.

I say the trailer during Dan, In Real Life; I wasn’t impressed at all. Didn’t care for Dan, In Real Life either.

Foreign Policy Goes Glam
by Daniel W. Drezner

10.29.2007

WHO WOULD you rather sit next to at your next Council on Foreign Relations roundtable: Henry Kissinger or Angelina Jolie? This is a question that citizens of the white-collared foreign-policy establishment thought they’d never be asked. The massive attention paid to Paris Hilton’s prison ordeal, Lindsay Lohan’s shame spiral and anything Britney Spears has done, said or exposed has distracted pop-culture mavens from celebrities that were making nobler headlines.

Increasingly, celebrities are taking an active interest in world politics. When media maven Tina Brown attends a Council on Foreign Relations session, you know something fundamental has changed in the relationship between the world of celebrity and world politics. What’s even stranger is that these efforts to glamorize foreign policy are actually affecting what governments do and say. The power of soft news has given star entertainers additional leverage to advance their causes. Their ability to raise issues to the top of the global agenda is growing. This does not mean that celebrities can solve the problems that bedevil the world. And not all celebrity activists are equal in their effectiveness. Nevertheless, politically-engaged stars cannot be dismissed as merely an amusing curiosity in foreign policy.

Consider the most notable example of a celebrity attempting to move the global agenda: Angelina Jolie. Her image has come a long way since her marriage to Billy Bob Thornton. In February of this year she published an op-ed in The Washington Post about the crisis in Darfur, referencing her work as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. During the summer, her press junket to promote A Mighty Heart included interviews with Foreign Policy’s website and a glowing profile in Newsweek, modestly titled “Angelina Jolie Wants to Save the World.” In that story, former Secretary of State Colin Powell describes Jolie as “absolutely serious, absolutely informed. . . .She studies the issues.” Esquire’s July 2007 cover featured a sultry picture of Jolie—but the attached story suggested something even more provocative: “In post-9/11 America, Angelina Jolie is the best woman in the world because she is the most famous woman in the world—because she is not like you or me.”

Howdy MF.

Rotflmao…by the time Famous Fuggy is done listing all of TC’s movies that don’t count, there will be none left.

Anyhoo, AJ looks good. It amazes me how she went from this to the 20s woman in the Changeling (I know, I know it’s the make artist and the costume designer’s job, still…)

Thanks Jared and a big hello to everyone.

Hollywood hunk Brad Pitt is considering playing the Unabomber in a blockbuster movie of the terrorist’s life.
Pitt’s production company, Plan B is considering a biopic about Ted Kaczynski, whose campaign of terror through letter bombs killed three and wounded 23.
He sent bombs to several universities and airlines from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s and the hunt for him was one of the most expensive in FBI history.
Kaczynski’s got his moniker as the Unabomber after the FBI gave him the codename “UNABOM”, standing for “UNiversity and Airline BOMber”.
It was ultimately Ted’s brother, David Kaczynski, who turned him in to the authorities.
Pitt’s publicist, Cindy Guagenti, confirms that Plan B is “looking at” a Unabomber script, although it is early stages.
“It’s not a project they’ve taken on yet,” she says. “It’s something they’re looking at.”
She adds that Plan B’s execs get “a million scripts thrown at them” and not always for Pitt.
“He doesn’t star in everything they produce, clearly.”
And even if it is formally picked up, it may be some time before the film hits the big screen.
“He’s got so many movies lined up,” she said
=================================================================
Thanks for posting this, I hope they pick it up.
