#500 mayi @ 11/18/2008 at 7:30 am …You are nuts!BTW please look up what karma REALLY means. :roll: It is quite apparent these trolls have too much time on their hands.Not only are they stupid,but also bored.

the art of being a troll

lesson 28
(assuming things from photos but in reality it is just a second)

example i)
brad looks away from angelina for a second during CCOBB premiere and/or after show. LOOK SEE OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG BREAK-UP!! I TOLD U I AM RIGHT!!

example ii)
brad has a drink in his hand = OMG DRINK PROBLEM

example iii)
brad talks to a female who is not angelina = OMG BREAK-UP

THE TROLLS MAY CHANGE BRAD TO ANGELINA AND THE EVENTS AND SITUATIONS MAY CHANGE BUT THE BLUE-PRINT IS ALWAYS THE SAME. this is the troll code

Another one afraid of Karma…….Don’t be afraid it is never to late to change. Don’t be so mean it will hurt you. I never attacked them like you attacked me. I was just making an observation, and it is my view point , Why do some people on this site get so mean spirited???

Goodmorning to all JP fans …I already lost two posts..hmmm maybe they will appear eventually :-)

I love this pic.

Just heard a news anchor on one of the tv channels say the following: “Last week was not a good week for x.” He said her name, I won’t. He said that she had low ratings on 30 Rock, and on Oprah.
================

Jeez, even the oprah show got low rating too? Well, I watched it too. I kept thinking her show will have higher rating because of the MVM plus the Brad and Angelina fans like me who want to see for themselves what she had to say. It’s like: mvm+fanistons+team uncool. And still it was a low rating? wow.

It would have been even lower with Beyonce !

#504 mayi @ 11/18/2008 at 7:42 am …And you aren’t being mean spirited predicting bad karma?Like I said you are nuts! Done with you.

mayi karma will suck ur flat & lumpy @$$ in matter of seconds not 20 yrs. i think somebody shld snatcth tht computer out and give you a good o’le black eye for karma.

back to sender @ 11/18/2008 at 7:53 am

Well U wishing KARMA on other people always have it at the back of your mind that what you wish for OTHERS will surely come back to you. Be careful on what you say or the comment you post.

The fact is that life is too short to hate. And also all those that do come to judge celebrity that is very bad, they are human not alien.

Also those that are still hurt for divorce of 4year its time to move on.

peace

Hong Kong actress Maggie Cheung will star in Quentin Tarantino’s World War II film “Inglourious ********,” the actress has said.

Cheung, 44, who has settled down in Beijing with her German architect boyfriend Ole Scheeren, went back to Hong Kong over the weekend to promote a brand she endorses, Star Daily reported.

The Cannes best actress told the newspaper she would only appear in a couple of scenes. However, the role would be challenging because she has to speak French.

Written and directed by the Oscar-winning Tarantino, the film will be led by Brad Pitt as the leader of eight Jewish-American soldiers. Cheung will play a French woman who owns a cinema in Paris.

“My character is very interesting,” Cheung was quoted as saying, “But it’s a pity I wouldn’t be able to star in a scene together with Brad Pitt.”

The film is set for release at next year’s Cannes Film Festival in May.

So many movies, so little time for showbizzers
Mon Nov 17, 2008 ] By Steven Zeitchik

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - If you’re a member of the media or a Hollywood guild and happen to have Thursday night free, allow the consultants who plan the social calendar this time of year to suggest some options.

For starters, there’s the first large-scale, Los Angeles screening of Brad Pitt’s Christmas Day release “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” an event that will not only unveil the movie to expectant journalists but also offer up director David Fincher for questions.

If you’re in the mood for characters aging in the more traditional direction, the first L.A. screenings of the Nicole Kidman period epic “Australia” happen Thursday, too (one in the morning, one in the evening). Hankering for some Catholic guilt? BAFTA/L.A. wants you to come to its “Doubt” event with Philip Seymour Hoffman and Meryl Streep.

And that doesn’t even include the media screenings that evening for the many underdogs, from “Last Chance Harvey” to “Adam Resurrected,” that are clamoring for a little awards-season love.

About the only thing more annoying than a columnist complaining about how he’s not being invited to events is a columnist who complains he’s being invited to too many. But there’s a real problem associated with a calendar this chock-a-block: When voters are forced to choose between so many events, movies suffer.

Part of the reason for the packed schedule, of course, is the proliferation of awards-related events. If you’re an Oscar consultant, the surest way to show a client you’ve been working is to put on an event screening. And with more consultants taking on a seemingly ever-expanding list of clients, it follows that the number of events will balloon too.

Part of the overload, though, is specific to this year. After the early flameout of so many awards movies in ‘07, gun-shy studios this year held back many pictures. Few Oscar contenders went to Toronto, and most hopefuls skipped September and October.

Last year, September saw the theatrical release of six bona fide contenders. In 2008, things have shifted to an insanely packed December. During a 20-day span, a dozen contenders will open, from studio extravaganzas including “Benjamin Button” and “Frost/Nixon” to specialty products such as “The Wrestler” and “Doubt” to niche fare like Israel’s “Waltz With Bashir.”

Some of those are limited openings, so they won’t affect or be affected by the year-end box office crunch. And Academy members will be offered multiple opportunities to catch up with titles between now and the Academy’s January 12 nominations deadline.

But the prelaunch events surrounding all these films, coupled with December’s usual mad dash ahead of Globes and critics groups deadlines, make it all a little impossible. And studios, more nervous than ever about early blog reviews, already have been playing keepaway with some screenings, adding to the frenzy.

So what are the implications of all these competing events?

First, more movies may be watched on promotional “screener” DVDs and in nonevent settings; notch a disadvantage to movies that play well on the big screen or films whose likable director or star could make a personal case.

Long shots will take a hit. If a voter has to choose between that “Benjamin Button” screening and the smaller movie getting the proverbial push for “performances,” guess which one he’ll likely go for?

And give an edge to contenders, such as “The Visitor” and “The Dark Knight,” that have played earlier in the season and already had their full moment in the sun with voters.

The message from awards consultants this year is clear: Check out our movie even if it means blowing off someone else’s — and don’t even think about that holiday party.

Quotes about other stars who talked about fading away from Hollyweird

Who Will Quit Hollywood Next?
11/17/08

Acting in solidarity with laid-off workers, Hollywood’s pampered actors are quitting their well-paid gigs for less glamorous ones: Joaquin Phoenix quit acting for music, Clint Eastwood quit acting for directing, and, in a shocking development, Angelina Jolie announced that “I don’t plan to keep acting very long.” But this could be just the first wave of self-imposed layoffs. Who’s next? Alec Baldwin, Pamela Anderson, and Mena Suvari, for starters. After the jump, we list 24 actors who may quit next.

Clint Eastwood: “[Gran Torino] will probably be my last. I’ll be drummed out of it after this one. Every time you do a movie you think, ‘Aw, that’s enough of that.’”

Joaquin Phoenix: “This will be my last performance as an actor.”

Freddie Prinze Jr.: ‘I’m going to stop acting in the next few years because it’s just too weird.”‘

Sean Connery: “The time has come because of my rather unfortunate last movie. The cost to me in terms of frustration and avoiding going to jail for murder cannot have continued.”

Gwyneth Paltrow: “I hated acting… Acting and the whole circus around it.”

Lindsay Lohan: “I hate Hollywood and I don’t want to work there.”

Alec Baldwin: “I believe it is time for me to do something else. It’s absolutely, unequivocally time for me to do something else… I can’t do this anymore. It’s all about compromising. I hate work. I ******* hate it in every way.”

Jamie Lee Curtis: “I’m not an actor anymore.”

Pamela Anderson: “I want to be in Vegas forever.”

Kevin Spacey: “I don’t care about my personal acting career any more. I’m done with it.”

Nicolas Cage: “I’m tired of it. It has made me reclusive. That is an increasingly gnawing feeling in my body.”

Hayden Christensen: “I don’t find Hollywood interesting, so I’m thinking about studying architecture instead.”

Audrey Tatou: “I know I’m not the best actress in the world and not the worst but I think that maybe I’d be happier doing something that doesn’t leave me so exposed.”

Hugh Grant:: “It’s so long and boring and so difficult to get right.”

Eddie Murphy: “Thirty years and I have close to 50 movies and it is like, ‘Why am I in the movies? I’ve done that part now. I’ll go back to the stage and do stand-up.’”

Sting: “It’s too much hard work.”

Mena Suvari: “I don’t have a strong desire to be an actress my whole life–it’s just not fulfilling enough for me… If I hadn’t got into modeling, I probably would have studied psychology and might be working on a PHD right now.”

Ricky Gervais: “I’m not going to make a career of it [acting], certainly not. I’ve never wanted to be an actor. I’ve never thought of myself as one.”

Madonna: “I hate to admit it, but I’ve decided to give [acting] up.”

Uma Thurman: “I am thinking about becoming a stay-at-home mom.”

Tom Selleck: “A dog was killed — trampled to death — and it really disturbed me… I remember saying to my agent, ‘If this is what it’s like, I’ve got to find another line of work.”

Elizabeth Hurley: “I decided I couldn’t really do movies any more.”

Matthew Broderick: “I should probably quit. Acting is a tough living.”

Rachel Bilson: “I love the career I have chosen, but I’d be quite happy as a housewife, at home with the kids.”

Quentin Tarantino: “I just don’t feel like acting anymore, I lost the bug.”

Gary Oldman: “You can get tired. You might say I want to change careers or to do something else…. My love for acting… It’s withered.”

Straczynski: I had to go against my own instincts because the story was so surreal and so bizarre. I thought if I fictionalized it too much, I (would) call the integrity of the whole thing into question. I felt I should treat it as almost an article, rather than as a movie, so that virtually every line of every scene is based directly on testimony or transcripts or articles or whatever from the time.

if u can say nothing nice (postive and the truth) don’t bother posting in a angelina and brad thread (nasty randon lies)

Good Morning all and Happy Tuesday. The troll is all powerful and has the wrath of the almighty on her side. Too bad she is not out there living her on life, mistakes and all. Folks sure do like to cast judgment on some while others manipulate the media with their fake PR romance and eternal victim role. Have a great day and peace to all.

SUPER ANGIE @ 11/18/2008 at 8:05 am

Congratulations Angie!!!!! You are MAGNIFICENT and SUPER COOL.. Angie is only 33 and has accomplished a lot more than anybody in Hw at that age.
Now I am happy that millions of poor people will be helped by Angie and Brad. More children will be educated, and the list goes on.

More power to you Angie. You do a lot of good things in this world.

We will support you in your effort to save those who are unfortunate.

I understand why Brad loves you so much and people who really know you..

Can’t wait to see Shiloh and of course Brad come Christmas.

Brad has Angies back. God Bless them and their family.

the u.k media is soooo annoying. i am glad they are only staying one night now, always being snarky or twisting their words and making things out of nothing, like the ‘emotional’ press conference. is it so hard to believe angelina misses her mum?

Jill @ 11/18/2008 at 1:13 am Hey guys, does Aniston have any more movies projected? Because word on the street is that the Coen Brothers pulled the plug on both Gambit and The Senator’s Wife. So I guess it’s back to the little screen for poor old Jenny-poo, except that after bombing on 30 Rock, I don’t think they are too eager to have her back there either. Maybe she can write a tell-all bio and film it. Wonder who she’d get to play as herself, Brad and Angie?

————-
Maniston will end up in a cheap soft p*rnish production with Mayer or one of his young followers ! She will also be featured in the centerfold of Pl*yboy to proove the world that she still has it, bodily wise !. Farrah Fawcett pulled that stunt a few years ago.

I expect Maniston to take the toute of Pam Anderson. That’s what celeb obssessed bimbos are doing when they reach a certain age and a female over 40 in Hollywood is only relevant in movies when she has a brain. Brains and maturity are the only assets require to fill 40 + year roles, the body and beauty related ones are given to the younger ones.

That’s why Brooke Shields who was huge and very beautiful (still is) has to turn to TV. That’s why Halle, Julia, Catherine-Zeta have been less and less casted because the roles they used to be in are given to the less than 37. They will now play second fiddle, like the mother of the rising star.

Angie is at the top of her career right now. She has the best age to play the best roles : she is right there with the perfect combination of youth and maturity. I think she has 4 to 5 years ahead and like a true icon, she will leave Hollywood while still young while embracing more and more her other core business in political spheres. That’s the smartest thing to do !

Her image as an actress will forever stay young estiblishing herself as an icon and a legend young starlets are already emulating.

What an all around beautiful lady. Just love her. She just wants to help everyone in the world. Brad Pitt is so lucky. Great couple.

Angie is AWESOME! what a magnificent family.
I’m so glad to see a new picture of them.

I’m a troll

Pg 8 post 228 Cliniqua’s fan fic called No Cannes do is a must read for any fan.. Its so beautifully written… Clniqua, you need to write us some more fiction.. Here is a request , can we change this line “attractive TV star wife Jennifer Aniston on the red carpet.” Where did the attractive thought come from mate???

I think with the Holidays coming up she is so much more emotional. It must be terrible and to have to talk about it over and over again, I cannot imagine the pain.

Angelina is the type of person who seems to let all go when she loves and cares for someone. The emotion must be really strong between them.
