And this movie will be going up against Tom Cruise’s Valkaryl (or whatever) opening Boxing Day, Will Smith’s latest movie, opening a few days earlier and Jennifer Aniston’s Marley and me, opening Christmas Day also. This is going to be one big box office fight and I thionkmthe loser will be J.en Aniston’s rom com.

I am excited about this movie, it looks fab! Advanced previews are saying it’s a great, great movie and one predicts 10 Oscar noms!

This is THE movie if you want to see one this holiday season!!!!!!!
So excited!!!! The special effect alone is worth the admision IMO.
I know the budget of this movie is huge. Hopefully when it’s all said and done, worldwide receipts will recoupe the cost and turn in a little profit for the studio.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for major acting awards either from Brad or Angie this year. We fans need to support their movies. If anyone here has not seen Changeling yet, I urge you to go see it. Peace.

He sounds like one, but he’s actually a 50 year old perv with a hard-on for Suri Cruise.

I can’t wait to watch this wonderful movie.

I saw this movie on Sunday at a screening in L.A. It’s the best film I”ve seen this year and probably on my top 5 of all time. Incredible film making on all levels. Cate Blanchett always hits it out of the park with her acting and this is the best I’ve seen Brad Pitt, ever! Go see this wonderful film.

Some haters keep their nose up Brad’s crack.. lol.. another certified f.reak, Oh well whatever gets them through the thread :roll:

Happy Thanksgiving ladies / fans~ wish you all a warm and
blessed day.

This movie sounds really promising!I love Cate Blanchette and the only time I was impressed by Brad’s acting was in Babel with awesome Cate. I can’t wait to see their new collaboration.

Mondo Bongo! @ 11/25/2008 at 4:19 pm —-It’s great hearing from you..please send me an email soon..it’s been way too long ((hugs and kisses))

Brad looks so adorable in the second still of him sitting on the beach playing chess….

…His golden locks make you wanna just run your hands through its waves….yum…..

Check out Jimmy Kimmel below making fun of MANISTON’S ‘UNCOOL’ statement by saying that he also has a timeline of when he fell in-love with Brad Pitt….and that he’s revealing it at the risk of having UGLYston mad at him….

…after the ‘I’m EFFIN Ben Affleck’ video Brad participated in for him….I’m sure he finds CHINNIFER as ridiculous as the rest of Hollywood does!

Even Oprah was crazy about this film, saying over and over this film is THE film to see this Xmas. What about the DOG movie? She didn’t promote it as heavily as she did for BB. But hey, a TV actress can make some meaningless romcom, too. It’s a free country.

Don’t we all have a timeline of falling in love with Brad Pitt. But don’t tell maniston. hehehe.

…ain’t noone jealous…and the universe has been restored and it doesn’t allow bandwagons or freeloaders by association…

I first fell in love with Brad in Legends of the Fall.

OMG…how pathetic can you get.. but I’ll be honest I’m not not surprised at all …since you were sick puppies years ago and are still sick…Sorry sickos..you’re dream will never come true :lol: :lol:

Hey guli, I would like to at least read a few reviews to see what the critics think about it. I keep thinking they are going to push it back. Not so good reviews could encourage this process to happen and at a quicker pace. We’ve only seen that gawd awful running down the the beach screaming and yelling after the star of the movie promo. Peace

OK…another oldie but a goodie…me likes this one a lot :-)

variety review of ccBB @ 11/24/2008 at 2:01 pm

“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” represents a richly satisfying serving of deep-dish Hollywood storytelling. This odd, epic tale of a man who ages backwards is presented in an impeccable classical manner, every detail tended to with fastidious devotion. An example of the most advanced technology placed entirely at the service of story and character, this significant change-of-pace from director David Fincher poses some daunting marketing challenges, even with Brad Pitt atop the cast. Strong critical support will be needed to swell interest in this absorbing, even moving, but emotionally cool film, which is simultaneously accessible and distinctive enough to catch on with a large public if luck and the zeitgeist are with it.

Film Review: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
By Kirk Honeycutt
Nov 24, 2008

“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”

The fantasy element in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1922 short story “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” in which a man ages backward, does not begin to suggest the urgent drama and romantic fatalism that director David Fincher and writers Eric Roth and Robin Swicord have so strikingly brought to the screen in the movie version.
Fitzgerald’s story is little more than a plot gimmick. Yet the film transforms this gimmick into an epic tale that contemplates the wonders of life — of birth and death and, most of all, love.
Superbly made and winningly acted by Brad Pitt in his most impressive outing to date, the audience for this Paramount/Warner Bros. co-production is large. Strong boxoffice should ensue.
Although hard to pigeonhole, “Benjamin Button” comes closest to Latin American magic realism, which juxtaposes the fantastic with the realistic. The film shares elements with another Roth-written film, “Forrest Gump,” wherein a most unusual man sets out on an odyssey through 20th century American history. But Fincher, an unusual but winning choice as director, makes certain that “Benjamin Button” has none of the whimsy or coy historical revisionism of “Gump.”

Even the framework for the story underscores that there are forces within nature that man can’t control. Daisy (Cate Blanchett), a dying woman in a New Orleans hospital, gives her daughter (Julia Ormond) a memoir to read as Hurricane Katrina bears down on the city. The memoirist is none other than Benjamin (Pitt), born on the day of victory in Europe in 1918.

He was, he writes, “born under unusual circumstances.” He’s a baby that looks like a failing man in his 80s with poor eyesight, brittle bones and wrinkled flesh. His mother dies giving birth and his father (Jason Flemyng) abandons him, fittingly, at an old-age home. A maternal black woman, Queenie (Taraji P. Henson), who runs the place, takes him in and raises him in the one environment where he can pass unnoticed.

He truly fits in among blacks and people old and forgotten by time. Everyone is an outsider here. As a somewhat younger old man, he meets Daisy as a small girl (Elle Fanning) visiting an ancient relative. Their friendship will last both of their lifetimes — though ones moving in opposite directions — and will evolve into romance and passionate love.

Much keeps them apart though as Daisy pursues a career in ballet while Benjamin, once he gets a handle on what’s happening to him, is a man who will never feel comfortable in his own skin. The job on a tug boat with its hard-drinking pilot (Jared Harris) takes him to Russia and an affair with a British spy’s wife (Tilda Swinton) and then into naval action in World War II.

After the war, Daisy’s career takes off. She also can’t quite make up her mind about involvement with a man growing younger each year. But when commitment comes, contentment, brief though it might be, ensues.

Benjamin’s story is preceded by Daisy’s recollection of a watch maker (Elias Koteas) who, having lost his beloved son in World War I, made a clock for the New Orleans train station that ran backward so that time might move the same way and his boy would come back to him. Thus, narratively and thematically, the film positions time running backward as part of man’s eternal desire to cheat death and to cling to those closest to us.

Pitt’s Benjamin is a touching and poignant figure, a person often lost within his own life but with a comic spirit that allows him to accept his backward fate. Blanchett illuminates the screen with a beauty and intelligence that makes Benjamin’s pursuit of Daisy as much a quest for life as for love. As the adoptive mother, Henson embodies the essence of a good woman who derives her strength from God and her instincts from common sense.

Fincher’s direction is sure-handed during the entire 166 minutes, which never feels long or pretentious. The film takes Donald Graham Burt’s brilliant period design in stride, never overemphasizing it or lingering on an artifact. Claudio Miranda’s cinematography wonderfully marries a palette of subdued earthy colors with the necessary CGI and other visual effects that place one in a magical past.

Has anyone seen any reviews of Marley & Me or any of the other movies opening around the time CCBB is opening? It seems strange that CCBB is the only one being reviewed so heavily. I hope some start coming out soon. Peace

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

Dina -

I haven’t seen any reviews of the dog flick and don’t expect to until shortly before it comes out. All the movie sites are concentrating on the movies with Oscar buzz…which the dog flick don’t got! BBBWWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Other Oscar caliber movies coming out in the next month that are getting great reviews - The Reader, Milk, Slumdog Millionaire,Doubt and The Wrestler.

Movies getting very mixed reviews - Grand Torino, Revolutionary Road (one guy actually detested Leo in the role of the husband).

One movie coming out the week before CCOBB - Will Smith’s Seven Pounds - I haven’t seen any buzz about this movie or seen any reviews.

One movie coming out the day AFTER CCOBB - InFuggy’s homey’s “Valkyrie” - I haven’t seen any buzz about or reviews of either…just a whooooooooooole lot of snickering…

# 108 …..I genuinely believe what Alan Greenspan said was true - Bush should have either cut spending or raise taxes. When Bush entered the white house, he entered with a budget surplus. Over the course of his administration, the budget surplus became a huge budget deficit. As this equation changed, I believe he should have adjusted his economic policy. Say what you will of Alan Greenspan, I see him, like I see Colin Powell, as a very fine public servant and statesman. I don’t believe Greenspan lied when he wrote in his book, Age of Turbulence, that he asked Bush to cut spending.
=====================================
How do you know cut spending or raise taxes should be the course of action for Bush?

Just because Greenspan said so doesnt mean it’s a wise move.

Remember Greenspan pretty much created the sub prime mess. He let the interest rate stay too low and too long.

Also, did you know by the time Clinton left office, he gave Bush a beginning-to-go-south-economy. May be Bush should have cut EVEN deeper on taxes and increase EVEN more spending to STIMULATE the economy, pretty much like your beloved Obama is going to do.

You keep talking about the deficit. But part of the deficit is because of the 2 wars. True, Clinton had a surplus. But there was NO 9/11 during Clinton’s reign.

You post also said, “…….Bush has finished his term and time will allow all of us to better judge his administrations successes and failures more clearly in 20 to 50 years time.”. But, lylian, you waste no time in bashing him INCESSANTLY !!!! Not only that, you made fun of Palin’s passort. Apparently, you equate travel experience to grasp of foreign policy knowledge. To me, , you must be “on a roll” , writing posts to destroy the other candidate that you got sloppy in your thinking.

Momoji, one last time. I have criticised Bush policies not him personally. But the door is still open for me to wake up one day and say “I was wrong about Bush”.

Sarah Palin? LOL. Let’s not get into that or we will never end. If I did equate her lack of a passport to lack of grasp in foreign policy (which I don’t recall doing but let’s just say I did), then I was only half right. The other piece of the jigsaw was own her statements to Katie Couric about being able to see Russia from her Alaska!!!

Fini, fini, fini. We can argue till kingdom come and I don’t want to.

QQQQ @ 11/25/2008 at 10:54 pm OT - Even the LA Times is going there

The Big 10′: Who needs a Hollywood bailout?
Jennifer Aniston

The glory days: In the nineties, Jennifer Aniston was riding high. She landed the role of superficial-yet-lovable Rachel Green on “Friends,” an entire generation of women copied her hairdo, and she won an Emmy for best lead actress. Then, in 2000, she married golden boy Brad Pitt in a lavish Malibu ceremony, and in 2002 she gained indie cred with “The Good Girl.” Who could ask for more?

Troubled times: After Aniston and Pitt called it quits — and Pitt started dating Angelina Jolie - Aniston was painted as a victim. Recently, Aniston’s on-and-off relationship with John Mayer has come under the microscope, amid rumors she is pregnant. Jen’s appearance on “30 Rock” did little to buoy her falling star; the episode garnered the lowest ratings of the season. An appearance on “Oprah” and a jab at Jolie in a “Vogue” interview only provided further fodder for media scrutiny.

Bailout plan: Appealing as it is to cozy up to Oprah and gush, you may want to adopt the phrase “no comment” with regards to all things Brad and Angelina. And as for your unlucky-in-love image, how about trading in the actors and musicians for a regular guy? Get out of the spotlight and focus on what you love: acting! Why not star in a Broadway play? Added bonus: you’ll get out of L.A. for a while.

HUGE fan of Cate’s (greatest actress on earth) and I really really want her to win Best Actress this year! It’s been way too long! This movie looks absolutely breathtaking and has been generating all kinds of BP buzz, I can’t wait to see it!

http://www.jenniferanistonwatch.com/vogue-scans-and-the-new-york-times/img017/

LOL at the OuttaTouch cover. “Angelina can’t stop talking about the baby”. That’s news to us her fans, who watch and read all her interviews. “Brad is not thrilled”? Well, I guess we have to ask the millions who watched Oprah the other day when Brad was on her show saying “I dare say” to her “You’re happier than you have ever been”. I guess he didn’t know then that Angelina is pregnant again. Hahahaha.

an oldie @ 11/25/2008 at 11:24 pm

“Brad isn’t thrilled”? He’s the one who’s been talking about having more kids, not Angie.

At any rate, I don’t think they will have any more natural kids. I think they will adopt one more in another year or two, and call it quits at seven.

Year end is coming.

There are many houses waiting to be built.

Oh yeah — whatever happened to that baby bump Outa Touch said Aniston was carrying? I always said one good **** would deflate that “baby bump”. Looks like Jenny-poo laid an egg because the bump disappeared overnight.

I have not made comments about Brad’s ex because the old triangle is tiresomes. But with all the talk recently about who is and is not uncool, let me just say this. JA had a publicist and PR team in 2005 and was promoting at least 3 movies in 2005. Angie had no publicist or PR team (still doesn’t) and she and Brad stayed away from public appearances until after his divorce was finalized. So Angie was beat up on to further JA’s career. JA used the divorce to further her movie career and Angie was the real victim. Angie had no publicist to protect her from all the negative press planted by the JA people and the haters. Also JA lashed out at Brad over the W photoshoot because he was telling the world through photos that what looks like a happy marriage could in fact be the exact opposite. Then this year JA lashes out at Angie because Angie talks about how she was developing feelings for Brad during MAMS. Again I think Angle is really letting the world know that there was no perfect marriage to break up. When Angie talks about that time period, remember she is intelligent, caring, sensitive and candid. Just listen to her talk or read her interviews. So I think she is not being insensitive to JA, but is letting people in on the dynamics during that time period. I suspect Brad and JA were probably living separate lives before MAMS began. I think Angie and Brad became close on the set. That is obvious but I believe them when they say they started their relationship after his legal separation. Both Brad and Angie are intelligent, sensitive, caring individuals. So their comments about that time period are very telling. JA wants to play the victim by victimizing Brad and Angie when she had movies to promote. It’s a pity the media is so gullible.

Thanks passing Through. I read some where that Doubt wasn’t that good. I don’t remember where, but it was on line somewhere. I just want Brad and Angie to get nominated and win. Peace

One more adoption and call it quits at 7!

Most likely another Ethiopian little girl like ZZ.

Jill did you here what she said on access hollywood? that doesn’t sound like a person who doesn’t want to get pregnant again. They’ll have 1 more pregnancy and one more adoption.

Running after her little ones may be how Angelina Jolie gets her exercise, but she’s glad she has Brad Pitt to join her.

“I have a great partner,” the world-famous mom told Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell at the “Kung Fu Panda” DVD release party at the Mann Chinese Theater in Los Angeles. “He’s the best daddy and we have fun, so whenever it gets hard we can just look at each other and find a way to laugh about and just appreciate that they’re only little once, and we should enjoy every minute.”

Angie credited her energetic brood with her svelte physique after the birth of twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline.

“I’m running around after six of them,” she told Nancy. “Swimming with the kids a little and things like that, [too].”

And, she told Access, there are more to come.

“Anything could happen,” she said. “We’re open to anything, we love kids and we’re having a great time… It’s chaos in our house, but it’s so much fun. We’ll definitely have more.”

With “Kung Fu Panda 2″ in the works, Angelina said another pregnancy wouldn’t interfere with her role as Tigress.

“It’s the action movie I can do with a giant belly, so we’re good,” she said.

Their next adoption will be from africa, or if not africa where ever its from the child will be black.

Dang! i mean new topic not new thread. . .

The Big 10′: Who needs a Hollywood bailout?
Jennifer Aniston

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

ROTFLMAO. They should have posted this a few weeks ago instead of that vapid “interview” they did with her for no reason whatsoever. I’ve never seen anyone pimp a movie so far in advance of the opening.

Also - I wish someone would please explain to me why so many people want to “straighten out” X’s career? B#tch can’t act her way out of a wet paper bag. Telling X to do Broadway is like suggesting to Pamela Anderson that she might want to give Shakespeare a whirl. Just don’t say “DO Shakespeare” or old Pammy will think the Bard needs a BJ and back rub… Now that I think about it…X would probably think the same thing. She’d probably figure blowing the Bard would get him to finance her next romcom…until someone explained to her that he’s dead…

Dating experts: Shut up Jen ( from Sydney Morning Herald, 26 Nov)
Jennifer Aniston has been offered dating advice by the authors of The Rules.

Sherrie Schneider - who co-wrote the infamous dating manual with Ellen Fein - says the former Friends actress should not have spoken publicly about her summer break-up from John Mayer, and should also keep quiet about her ex-husband Brad Pitt’s relationship with Angelina Jolie.

Schneider said: “Breaking up is never easy, but it doesn’t have to be humiliating. Never mention Brad’s or John Mayer’s name in public. Also, don’t say anything bad about John, like when you said he was missing a sensitivity chip.”

Referring to Aniston’s recent first interview about Jolie, during which she called the actress “uncool” for admitting she had started her relationship with Pitt while he was still married, Schneider added: “Never talk about Angelina or call her ‘uncool’, even if she was uncool. She does not exist in your world.”

Fein also said Aniston, who recently rekindled her relationship with Mayer, should not wait before broaching the subject of starting a family with the Gravity singer.

She added: “You are going to be 40 soon. You have no time to waste if you want kids.”

Bang! Showbiz

All todays news report angie pregnant,even the daily mail no way im not buying this one she needs a couple of years recover from her c section,anything to sell them trashy magazines its getting crazy now they will say anything.

I don’t waste my money on the tap magazines; especially the ones that print such lies. Angie is scheduled to begin shooting a movie in February. She is under contract. The movie will have lots of action. I doubt she would get preggers now. She said after the movie she would probably take another year off. I don’t want to discuss Jen, but I get so mad when she and Angie are compared in Forbes and such. Angie really makes very few movies. If she was career driven, she could make 2 or 4 movies a year, she does not.

But I can’t wait to see CCOBB. I can’t see it Christmas Day…Family… But will be at the theater on Dec. 26th. I have seen Changeling 3 times. Yes, I do support the Brange. I am so proud and happy about Brad’s film choices in the last 4 years.

I fell in love with Brad after watching Seven… I started late. I always thought that he was too beautiful. I could not get away from his looks. After seven, I went back and watched his other films.. Snatch, Fight Club, A River runs Through It, Babel, Jesse James, California, Legends of the Fall,…

He is just wonderful.. It is great to see a young man mature into a “Man’. Brad Pitt is a Man. He has found himself, and is living the life he has always wanted… He found his “Soul Mate” Angelina… He is making great movies… Producing great movies.. What else is there left to say… And to the immature children who call this man ugly… When you grow up, you will understand his appeal. When you move away from boys and really know what a Man is and should be… You will understand his appeal.

If you have not seen Changeling do so… Fan or not… You will really enjoy the film.

>>>>>>>>

Aha!!! I did say, box office at the Babel territory!!

Notice that Changeling is going well. Still holding at No. 5 with more international territories.

I noticed that at the numbers website which you, PT gave for the titanic, the advertising and marketing budget was NOT equal to the production budget - which is what we were told is the rule of thumb. I also took the chance to look at other films and clearly advertising and marketing budget is not the same size as the production budget. Advertising and marketing costs are closer on average to 25% to 50% of production budget.

——————–
Actually Changeling is out of the Top 5. Bolt and Twilight kicked it out.

Changeling opening in the UK
Opens Wednesday 26 November 2008

Four out of Five stars
Running time: 141 mins

Beautifully made, emotionally gripping drama with a powerful central performance by Angelina Jolie that’s sure to attract Oscar buzz.

Angelina Jolie delivers a compelling performance, painting Christine as a woman who was simultaneously courageous and yet frighteningly vulnerable - her helplessness in the face of Code 12 (an actual law that enabled the police to commit anyone they deemed difficult) is genuinely terrifying. There’s also strong support from Malkovich and a brief but powerful cameo from Amy Ryan as a fellow prisoner who helps Christine deal with her imprisonment.

The production design is stunning throughout and the attention to detail is nothing short of astonishing, from Christine’s steel rollerskates (over heels) on the telephone exchange line to the red streetcars and the recreation of the 1920s LA skyline. The costume design is equally impressive, particularly Jolie’s green dress and hat ensemble, which recalls a famous Edward Hopper painting.

Looking forward to seeing Benjamin Button
There is such demand to see “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” that Paramount suddenly added four screenings just to keep up with demand after the press was finally able to see the finished film at Paramount on Saturday after the DGA digital snafu that cut the film short by about 2 hours and 20 minutes Thursday.

Speaking of the DGA, an 85-year-old producer, Alan Newman, died of a heart attack after standing in line waiting for a screening and David Fincher Q&A on Sunday, eerie since the remarkable film is a rumination on life and death. It sadly gave an added dimension to that screening to be sure.

Although like every other film with supporters and detractors, “Benjamin Button” is such an impressive and groudbreaking cinematic achievement that it seems to have genuinely earned its frontrunner status and looks like a cinch for at least 10 nominations, including for Cate Blanchett and Taraji P. Henson among the actors. Brad Pitt’s haunting performance is low key and all in his eyes. He’s great, but will it be too subtle for the actors’ branch? Hope not.

Okay maybe it is just my suspicious mind working here, but doesn’t Crazy Tom aka GMD interview with Hello Magazine sounds like he is copying from Brad and Angie interview, when they are talking about their kids and the things they do, not the football part but the other stuff, the reading colouring, arts and crafts etc:

How do they spend leisure time?

“Family breakfast together, hanging out and watching movies, watching football, you know, spending the evening as a family colouring and reading books to Suri. Kate is an artist on many levels, so there’s lots of fun things and lots of arts and crafts projects. We all love reading books to Suri. We have those moments of just hanging out together and talking about the day.”

Goodmorning to all JP fans!

# 187 alexanderina @ 11/26/2008 at 10:05 am

Alex–OMG now that’s funny..yep! sure sounds like poor tiny TC combined Angie’s and Brad’s responses..I sort of feel sorry for him. Sooo how come he never mentioned any of this when he was on O or any other time :lol:

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

ROTFLMAO! Amen, Alex! That was the first thing I thought when I saw the quotes! You know Tiny Tom is getting desperate when he so blatantly steals comments from another A Lister. The funny thing is that this means he’s been reading & watching Brad and Angie’s interviews! BBBBWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! How pathetic can you bee. Brad’s star is brighter than Tiny Tom’s…and you know Tiny Tom NEVER thought that would happen because Brad doesn’t wh#re himself out the way Tiny Tom does. Brad’s never been one of those people who’ll do every talk show and every mag interview he’s asked to do. Tiny Tom has ALWAYS done that. And now he’s finding it much harder to get covers of the bigger mags…so he’s taking anything he can get…Details and Hello Canada instead of Vanity Fair and Esquire/GQ? My how the mighty have fallen…

BTW - There’s another quote where he’s talking about his home is wherever RoboBride is and they stay together as a family or some such crap. Total bullshit because he’s been in LA most of her Broadway run and only goes to NYC to pimp Suri on a few outtings…then goes back to LA. Also no mention, once again, of Connor & Isabella. it’s all about Suri, Suri, Suri…

Passing Through @ 11/26/2008 at 10:53 am

OMG…PT as I was reading your post I got this vivid image in my mind..GMD watching and reading everything re JP’s and taking notes. ROTFLMAO :lol: :lol:
But, seriously I find it so disturbing that he never mentions Connor or Isabella… I guess he used Connor enough re soccer games etc. since he no longer is participating..and tiny Tom can’t use him for publicity he doesn’t bother.
BTW–I’m sure his new movie is going to be a complete bomb..but does he even have anything else lined up??? It really is shocking how he commited a career suicide and CAN NOT recover from it…sort of sad…

# 193 guli @ 11/26/2008 at 11:21 am

Guli -

Yeah, I had this image of Tiny Tom watching Brad on Okra, jumping up and down on his sofa and saying, “THAT SHOULD BE ME! THAT SHOULD BE ME!” Then once he calmed down…he got online and found the transcript at Okra’s website, studied it and voila! Instant family stories to spin for the media. There’s even another quote where he’s talking about having more kids…like the world really needs more kiddie robots…

BTW - TC does mention Connor & Isabella. Only he calls them “…the kids…” No names…just “the kids”. It reminded me of Jon Voight, pre-twins, on the rare occasions he’d remember Shiloh isn’t an only child, “Shiloh…and the OTHER kids…”

# 194 Besane @ 11/26/2008 at 11:29 am

I know..and after his last humiliation, I don’t know how he can recover from another complete flop. What was the movie with Robert Redford and M. Streep..how did he manage to ruin that one..for crying out loud just for the three big names it should have made some decent money and critical acclaim. JMHO..people just don’t want to see his movies…

# 194 Besane @ 11/26/2008 at 11:29 am

Besane -

I think Valkyrie was greenlit BEFORE the couch jumping. From what I read the script was supposed to be solid and it’s more of a thriller than the title makes it sound. After Tiny Tom’s samurai flick made money they had reason to think him as a renegade Nazi trying to bring down Hitler would fly, too.

The real question is - after the, for him, mediocre returns of MI:3…and the couch jumping…and over a year of people ridiculing Tiny Tom left, right and center…why wasn’t financing pulled?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!

I feel extra thankful today so I thought I’d share this gem to the X fans. Home girl is trying to repair her image, if you beleive this article. Take with grain of salt, lots of them. LOL! :lol: AS IF…

Jennifer Aniston Says NO
Jennifer Aniston has reportedly turned down John Mayer’s marriage proposal.

The former ‘Friends’ star – who recently rekindled her relationship with
‘Gravity’ singer John after a brief split earlier this year – is said to
have declined John’s offer because she doesn’t want to damage their
relationship.

A source said: “Jennifer said no when John asked her. She told John that
everything is so perfect between them right now, they shouldn’t ruin the
focus of their relationship.

“A wedding would be so stressful and Jennifer just wants to enjoy this
phase, falling madly in love and getting a thrill if the other one texts
when they are apart.”

However, despite being taken aback by Jennifer’s refusal, John is determined
not to let her decision affect their romance, and still thinks they have
what it takes to go the distance.

The source added to Look magazine: “John told Jennifer she is the girl for
him and he is sure of it. He is willing to do anything she wants as long as
they are together. He is like a different guy.

“John was over the moon when Jennifer took him back last month and he never
wants them to be apart again. He really wants to settle down with her. He
wants children, marriage - the whole thing at some point.”

This story makes no sense considering last month all of the “sources close to Jen” were saying she was dying to get married.
I guess they are trying to make her look less desperate.. which will never happen until Jen stops talking about Brad/Angelina in every interview and/or refuses to answer questions about them.
========================================
she could do sooooo much better than him.
i hope to god when they are having sex he doesn’t make the same faces he makes on stage. it would hard to get off with that looming over you in bed LOL!

Thank you, my cyber friends @ JustJared,
For sharing, caring, laughing and crying with me.

THE BEST OF BRAD PITT

By Kim Morgon

When “Inside the Actor’s Studio” host James Lipton requested the thespian insight of Brad Pitt, the actor declined. Why? Though Lipton has featured the likes of Jennifer Lopez on his smarmy chat fest, Pitt’s reason was modest: He said he didn’t have a “sufficient body of work” to account for the appearance.

Oh, but we beg to differ. The sandy-haired hunk has been one of cinema’s biggest stars for nearly 15 years. He’s an actor who, in spite of his almost obnoxiously pouty good looks and occasional lapses in judgment (”Meet Joe Black,” “Seven Years in Tibet”), has weathered his worst critics by taking chances. And though the media are obsessed with his every move (a relationship with Gwyneth Paltrow, marriage to and separation from Jennifer Aniston, and his ceaselessly chronicled relationship with Angelina Jolie, now complete with six children), he’s been smart to never oversaturate himself. Not by choice, anyway. He keeps a relatively tight lid on his personal and professional life, and lets his work speak for itself.

The upcoming Coen brothers comedy “Burn After Reading,” in which he plays a dopey exercise instructor, is no exception to his risk-taking. And we can’t wait to see his comedic chops up against the likes of George Clooney (in their fourth screen collaboration), Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton and John Malkovich. And his performance in the eagerly anticipated “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” is already receiving Oscar buzz, both for director David Fincher and his ultimate muse, Pitt. So, small body of work or not, we’re sorry, Brad - we’re officially giving you your own top 10 list, detailing your greatest performances. It’s a list that will, for sure, expand through time, and one that should prove to detractors once and for all that Brad Pitt is not just a pretty face.

10. ‘Thelma & Louise
Though Pitt had appeared in pictures before director Ridley Scott’s beloved female-bonding road movie, his entrance was so star-making you could literally feel the audience’s hot-and-bothered awe. In some cases, gasps could be heard by female popcorn munchers. Clad in good-ol’-boy Levis, a T-shirt and cowboy hat, his devilishly charming scoundrel seduced Geena Davis’ smitten Thelma in one of those steamy sex scenes that make husbands uncomfortable. No viewer cared that his character eventually steals Thelma’s money - the camera loved him. His James Dean-like good looks and agreeable, naturalistic demeanor were absolutely effortless. Though Pitt had struggled for some time before this splash (as an extra, doing commercials and a soap opera role), the collective thought was, “Where did this guy come from?” And you just know former casting agents everywhere - the ones who second-guessed his big-screen appeal - openly wept.

9. ‘Kalifornia’ (1993)
Pitt had played a role slightly similar (abusive, druggy pimp) and with the same co-star (Juliette Lewis) in the made-for-TV movie “Too Young to Die,” but in “Kalifornia,” he upped the anger ante to serial killer. Unkempt, bearded and smarter than he looked, Pitt’s sociopathic Early Grayce was an unsparing portrait of violent lawlessness. Scary but still sexy, Pitt’s performance was simultaneously gritty and sickly seductive, which is the very reason David Duchovny’s character was fascinated by him. And it’s an intriguing, ballsy follow-up to Pitt’s family-friendly “A River Runs Through It.”

8. ‘Ocean’s Twelve’ (2004)
Yes, “Ocean’s Eleven” was a better movie. But that was George Clooney’s film. “Ocean’s Twelve” belongs to Brad Pitt. Though he is engulfed by the combined high-wattage superstar ensemble of Clooney, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Elliott Gould Bernie Mac and Don Cheadle, Pitt manages to make the crime sequel his (starting with the initial, hilarious cameo scene by Topher Grace). Reprising his role as Rusty Ryan, the well-dressed crook/Danny Ocean team member, Pitt is beautiful, affable, charming and clever without being cute. It’s a terrifically unpretentious performance in a glossy, designer suit of a movie but one in which you never doubt Pitt is a movie star. Director Steven Soderbergh amusingly plays with one reason why we go to movies - eye candy - and then allows the candy (Pitt) to be immensely likable and intelligent in the process. It really is tough to be that attractive and that congenial, but Pitt has the knack.

7. ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ (2005)
How do you get through this picture without bringing up the dreaded “Brangelina” moniker, the supposed nonaffair (but, please, we’re all adults here) that gave Liz Taylor and Richard Burton’s “Cleopatra” frolic a run for their money? Well, you can’t. Even if whatever was really happening between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt once director Doug Liman called “cut!,” it doesn’t much matter; it’s all there on screen: the chemistry, the sexiness and the wit. A violent but at times hilarious and smart satire on the eventual boredom of married, suburban life, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” delivers the goods, with big guns, big lips, big set pieces and big stars. It’s a movie star movie, and for those of us who enjoy our gods and goddesses larger-than-life, it lets us revel in the glamour while dissecting, with unexpected twists and turns, scenes from a marriage. As husband-and-wife assassins who wake up to discover they are their next hits, the Smiths’ typical greeting of “Hi, honey! I’m home!” takes on a whole new dark double meaning, largely thanks to Pitt. A star who can poke fun at his image, he did something that doesn’t happen very often: He made Angelina funny.

6. ‘True Romance’ (1993)
You’re on your way to becoming the biggest movie star in the world and what is the next role you choose? Lead in wacky romantic comedy? Starring role in important period piece? Headliner of an action-adventure thriller? No, no and no. How about a hippie pothead who tokes from a honey-bear bong? Probably against his agent’s advice, Pitt decided on Floyd in “True Romance,” a barely articulate stoner who was in a mere few scenes. He could have been a simply funny afterthought to Christian Slater’s protagonist. And yet, if you ask any Pitt fan to list their favorite Pitt performances, Floyd will invariably be mentioned as a peak moment. Showing his comedic chops, Pitt creates an understated yet hilarious dude stuck in the middle of drug dealers and mobsters who is comical and endearing. If an Academy Award for best supporting, supporting, supporting actor existed, Pitt would have won.

5. ‘The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford’ (2007)
There’s so much about this gorgeously shot, thoughtful, wonderfully acted movie that was ignored, misunderstood and badly buzzed, that anyone who loves it feels absolutely perplexed. What were critics and audiences not seeing? Or, given many of the complaints concerning the picture’s running length (just past 2 1/2 hours), what is wrong with viewers’ attention spans these days? Who knows? In any case, director Andrew Dominik (who crafted the masterful “Chopper”) gave Brad Pitt one of his greatest roles as the iconic, moody outlaw Jesse James. Sure, Mr. Pitt’s a little older than young Jesse, but never mind - the man suits the tabloid-attracting, charismatic and, by all accounts, good-looking western anti-hero beautifully. One completely understands why Casey Affleck (in a career-defining performance) as the legendary backstabber (or shooter) Robert Ford works as both agent of death and love-struck groupie - an almost Valerie Solanas to James’ Andy Warhol. Though Pitt, one of the biggest stars of our time, more than likely had to dig deep into James’ bouts of psychopathology (or return to his role in “Kalifornia”), he surely related to much of the picture’s message concerning celebrity: It’s toxic and weirdly sublime

4. ‘12 Monkeys’ (1995)
Pitt turned down a lead in the critically lauded audience hit “Apollo 13″ to appear in Terry Gilliam’s demented, bizarre vision of sci-fi dystopia times 10. In a brave, purposefully over-the-top performance, Pitt played the seriously wacked-out fanatic Jeffrey Goines, an insane-asylum inmate who also happens to be the head of a radical animal-activist group who may or may not have something to do with the virus that has destroyed 99 percent of humanity. Got that? Pitt’s wild-eyed, fast-talking and perpetually twitching performance garnered him a Golden Globe and his only Oscar nomination to date.

3. ‘Seven’ (1995)
Director David Fincher was the best thing to happen to Brad Pitt, who, even with a past Oscar nomination, was still fighting his stereotype as a simple pretty-boy lead. In “Seven,” Fincher worked the movie star to perfection, understanding the actor’s strengths and weaknesses and infusing them into a hot-headed character who’s not as smart or cool as he thinks he is. As a cocky, newbie homicide detective, Pitt worked wonderfully opposite a somber and darkly reflective Morgan Freeman as the two track down Kevin Spacey’s famed “Seven Deadly Sins” serial killer. Pitt had never shown such range. When he’s turned into an ire-filled mess by the film’s head-in-a-box finale, it’s both heartbreaking and morbidly bleak.

2. ‘Snatch’ (2000)
After botching accents in films like “The Devil’s Own” and “Seven Years in Tibet,” a game Pitt would finally get one right in Guy Ritchie’s flashy crime caper “Snatch.” More interesting, however, is that the accent was his own creation and, hilariously, something barely anyone - even the characters in the film - could understand. As a rough, grubby gypsy boxer set up as a ringer by two promoters, Pitt looked the part, but his Cockney, whatever-the-heck vocal stylings were the topper, resulting in a movie that would be dull without him. Pitt was able to swipe a movie from that great scene-stealer Benicio Del Toro, confirming that his unusual performance was the correct move. Now that we think about it, we’d have loved to hear him explain that one to James Lipton.

1. ‘Fight Club’ (1999)
The greatest role in Pitt’s career and one, if the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences had any guts, that should have earned him at least a nomination. But “Fight Club” was too scary and likely too downright subversive for the Academy or the masses. A “Clockwork Orange” for the new millennium, the film cast Pitt as Tyler Durden, the transgressive, prankster alter-ego of Edward Norton’s splintered psyche and head of Fight Club, a movement for disgruntled men to violently get back at society. The film re-teamed Pitt with “Seven” director David Fincher, who understands how to be subversive within the Hollywood system. Fincher consequently took the ideal hunk of Pitt, all grunged-out and glamorous, and turned him into something seditious and satirical. And Pitt got it. Dangerous, cruel, sexy and smart, he proved the perfect figment of Norton’s frustrated, IKEA-obsessed and ultimately insane imagination. Fincher’s casting of Pitt was smart on many levels. By using Pitt’s star persona as a comment on how most guys can only dream of envisioning themselves, he deconstructed how we watch and feel about movie icons. So when Tyler yelled at his Fight Club recruits that they would never be movie stars, the scene worked as both a hard truth and a delicious satire. Absolute genius.

I would like to know the back story about Angie getting Salt and TC out……no wonder he is watching them……….he is likely Team Aniston….for his own reasons of course and none of them admirable.

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

ITA. I think they probably came to her and not the other way around. Although I’m sure the media will eventually claim that Angie lobbied for the role. Angie said what she usually does is call Geyer and tell him what she’s interested in doing and if she’s looking for an action role, then ask what scripts he’s gotten for her and he gives her the scripts he thinks she’ll be interested in. But…by the time the movie comes out the tabs will be claiming that Angie forced Tiny Tom out of the movie and MADE the studio hire her. Cuz ya know…everything’s Angie’s fault…

“You and I” by LLM.
This video shows their deep love for everyone to see. Beautiful. I want them to be married. They are so happy together. The music was perfect.

Hey Guli -

Looks like we owe Tiny Tom an apology. He DID mention the “other kids” by name…

http://www.hollywoodrag.com/index.php?/P16/

“It was especially nice as it was Kate’s first time. I’ve been
around kids my whole life but it’s different when they’re yours. So I feel I was a very helpful husband and excited about it.

“I’ll never forget my first night with Bella. I was looking at every breath she took, and we laugh about it now as I told her, ‘I think I kept you up more than you did me that first night.’

Oscar Watch: ‘Benjamin Button,’ One Classy Movie, Takes the Lead

If you subscribe to the theory that the film with the most potential Oscar nominations is the frontrunner, which I usually do, then “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” which I saw last night at MOMA, is the clear-cut leader for Best Picture. There are 10 or more possible nods here, including Best Actor for Brad Pitt and Best Actress for Cate Blanchett. Director David Fincher and screenwriter Eric Roth’s very free and very long (167 minutes) adaptation of a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a sweeping, decades-spanning romantic fantasy that I got totally caught up in. I just couldn’t wait to see what happened next. Aided by some astounding digital effects, Pitt — or in some cases actors on whom Pitt’s face, appropriately aged or de-aged, was digitally pasted — plays a man who is born in 1919 New Orleans, looking like an 85-year-old and ages backwards to infancy (it’s actually most creepy to see Pitt as a teenager). Benjamin meets Daisy (mostly Blanchett), the great love of his life, when he is chronologically seven years old — about the same as her — but appears to be in his late ’70s. They drift tantalizingly in and out of each others’ lives except for a period in the early ’60s when both are in physical sync, but tragically they can never grow old together. I was skeptical about the premise going in, but this four-hankie movie totally won me over, even though too much time is devoted to flash-forwards of Blanchett’s dying aged character telling Benjamin’s story during Hurricane Katrina, not to mention another framing story around that one. There are, as noted previously, some resemblances to Roth’s Best Picture Winner “Forrest Gump” in the movie’s challenged, basically passive main character and his globe-trotting adventures. But Fincher has held Roth’s tendency to schmaltz in check far more than Robert Zemeckis ever did and added more visual grace notes than can be absorbed in a single viewing. This is a really classy, old-school movie movie at heart. It will be interesting to see if the public at large, particularly the under-25 crowd, connects with this challenging idea for a very expensive-looking flick, a love story very much obsessed with physical decay and death. Domestic distributor Paramount (Warners has foreign) is planning to open “Benjamin Button” wide on Christmas Day, but I wouldn’t at all be surprised if they announced a limited opening in New York and Los Angeles on Friday, December 19, to take advantage of early critical enthusiasm. It’s already locked up a spot on this professional cynic’s 10 Best List.

QQ -

Are you WEEPING now after reading post # 221?

BBL

Pitt and Blanchett - shouldnt they be together? they are perfect. Brad is too old for Angie

Angelina and Ryan Phillipes - that would be perfect for her

what do you guys think?

CMAR–I couldn’t have said it better….ROTFLMAO…Sooo this twit wants NINE kids parents to split up and hurt them just so that her ugly talentless idol and her pathetic fans can get some twisted/sick/insane satisfaction out of these nine kids and two happy couples to be miserable and hurt???? OMG…do they even know what the fcuk they are typing or posting? SICK!!!

Good afternoon to all BAMPZSKV fans. I hope everyone is having a great day preparing for turkey day tomorrow. Well since I am a vegetarian there will be no turkey for me.

Just a little to guli, Passing Through, African girl, irma, embo, Neleh, where have you been? I thought you had run off with the new boyfriend. :smile: Missouri Fan, I am so sorry about your father and will include him in my prayers. But it is good to hear from you. Hi to vickiefromtexas, long time no read. Hi to angel, bdj, thanks for the articles. QQQQ, thelookoflove1365, LLM, Besane, senior and Alexandria. If I forgot anyone it was not intentional.

PT that US weakly comparsion between Angie and x was hilarious. X could never look sexy. She has only two expressions for pete’s sake and both are ugly. Look at JJ”s front page the stills from HJNITY. Her face looks so mean and frozen. That is the same look on the cover of Vouge. It is the same look in all of her pictures. Plus her eyes are cold, and remote. The VF cover is her best picture ever. MHO

In that Esquire cover her chin looks a mile long, compared to Angie who looks like sex personified. X doesn’t have any sex appeal. She isn’t a warm person and she doesn’t project confidence which is what being sexy requires. Warmth, confidence, freedom of spirit, the able to project onself.

Angie sitting on a stick fully clothed projects more sex appeal than x fully naked. No wonder Brad lost his frucking mind and chased her azz around the world. And keeps getting her pregnant. Because every time he looks at her he thinks about sex. And he is trying to make up for all of the years he didn’t think about it.

Okay gotta go. BWBBL. Peace :smile:

I hope that Brad’s new movie does better than the Changeling did. The golden couple will lose their mojo if they keep acting in box office flops.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has described the difficulties she had during the filming of her latest flick Changeling.

Directed by Clint Eastwood, the film is set in Los Angeles in 1928 and follows the plight of Christine Collins - a woman trying to track down her kidnapped son.
“When I first read the script, I couldn’t put it down. And then I said no immediately” - Angelina Jolie

The mother of six said she found the film, which is based on a true story, very emotional.

“When I first read the script, I couldn’t put it down. And then I said no immediately. I didn’t want to go near this project because it was too upsetting,” she said.

“But then I couldn’t stop talking about her. I found myself sitting with people and wanting them to know about this extraordinary woman.

“As a mom, it was horrible. I had my kids as much as possible at lunch and after doing a day at work I’d run home. I wanted to be silly, it was so emotional I found myself being goofy at home.”

I was only saying that Brad and Cate made an wonderfull couple.

and a saw a movie with Angie and Ryan and they were just perfect for each other.
They have the some age. Brad is too old for Angelina. Imagine Brad with 60 years and Angie with 48. wont happen though. she will have another men by then.

Jolie is magnificent as the mother in total despair. Her portrayal of an emotionally distraught parent desperate for answers shows that Christine’s timid side cannot be exploited by the police force when it comes to the safety of her child.

Rather than backing down, she stands up to the corrupt officials and sees that justice is served on the LAPD.

Only friendships made along the way in this tale of turmoil aid her in proving she was set up and that her son is still out there.

Passing Through:
Here’s some morning hilarity for everyone…

US Lies Weakly has done a side-by-side comparison of Angie & X’s “sexiest covers” - magazine covers that is.
——————————–

Eeeeck!
That Chinifer cover in Esquire shows the BIGGEST nose ever.
What a fugly woman.
What the heck did Brad ever see in this loser???

Changeling
5 Stars

It is rare to come across a movie which is as beautifully directed, powerfully acted and utterly moving as Clint Eastwood’s Changeling. Not simply another Hollywood blockbuster, it is a breath of fresh air at the cinema.

Screenwriter J. Michael Straczynski masterfully adapts this true-crime story, bringing to life the shocking events which occurred in Los Angeles in 1928 when Walter, the nine-year-old son of Christine Collins (Angelina Jolie), a switch-board operator, goes missing. The LAPD are less than helpful. However after five months they bring Christine, along with the press, to the train station to be reunited with a boy who they claim to be her son.

One problem: this boy is not Walter. Yet instead of the police admitting their mistake, they persuade Christine to take the child home on a ‘trial basis’. Obviously experiencing emotional imbalance at such a time, she must simply be mistaken. Why would the boy call her ‘mother’ if she was anyone else? Sure he may have shrunk two inches and be a little more circumcised than she remembers, but all these changes are perfectly viable, the LAPD doctor assures; he has been missing for five months.

The audience chuckle with incredulity at the ‘professional’ assertions of the doctor, yet any laughter has a somewhat bitter aftertaste when aligned with Jolie’s entirely convincing and heart-rending portrayal of Christine’s helplessness. We watch as she transforms her terror into a relentless personal crusade, exposing the corruption of those in power. The star-studded cast give consistently excellent performances, especially Jolie, whose skill as an actress is really given credit in this non-action-movie role. Apart from one disappointingly cheesy ending line, it is no wonder that Changeling has been nominated for the Golden Palm award for best movie of the year.

Jolie attends American Academy lecture
Published: 26 Nov 08 09:04 CET
Online: http://www.thelocal.de/society/20081126-15743.html

Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has attended a scholarly lecture at the American Academy in Berlin, daily Die Welt reported on Wednesday.

Jolie, currently living in Germany’s capital city with her family while partner Brad Pitt films at Babelsberg studios, was spotted taking notes and listening intently at the lecture on Russian-American relations on Monday night, the paper said.

The star was without security, but accompanied by her assistant and Lloyd Phillips, the executive producer for the Quentin Tarantino film “Inglorius ********” that Pitt is currently filming in the city.

The lecture, “Russia and the West - A Way Forward,” was given by Georgetown University head of the Center for Eurasian, Russian and East European Studies, Angela Stent.

The actress seemed relaxed and smiled often during the question and answer session of the lecture, Die Welt reported.

And what, the paper asks, does one wear to such an event? Because, as the paper said, “a little sex must be,” Jolie wore knee-high black boots, along with a black skirt and a black turtleneck that gave off an “academic affect.”

Jolie and Pitt arrived in September with plans to stay for about three months at a Wannsee villa called Palais Parkschloss - in the same area as the American Academy - according to reports in the German media.

The Academy Award winner is known to be politically active, and serves as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency.

“Inglorious ********” began filming in October and stars Brad Pitt, Mike Myers, Diane Kruger, Til Schweiger and Daniel Brühl.

The supposed script of “Inglorious ********” was leaked in mid-August and published on the internet. If the script is genuine, the film will feature Pitt as the leader of a band of American-Jewish soldiers sent behind enemy line during World War II to murder as many Nazis as they can in horrific ways.

“They haven’t seen a lot of our films yet, because they are a little young, but I’m looking forward to them one day discovering Mr and Mrs Smith,” she smiled. “They’re going to have a great laugh – to see when their parents actually met, and watch them fall in love and try to kill each other! And Madd was there while we were filming, so he was a part of it. It’s pretty extraordinary.””

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
She was talking about their characters but as usual the media twisted it.

Telling X to do Broadway is like suggesting to Pamela Anderson that she might want to give Shakespeare a whirl. Just don’t say “DO Shakespeare” or old Pammy will think the Bard needs a BJ and back rub… Now that I think about it…X would probably think the same thing. She’d probably figure blowing the Bard would get him to finance her next romcom…until someone explained to her that he’s dead…

hey Guli PT, Neleh, alex, us the old timers

I just wonder what was the reasons behind making the decision to produce this Valkyrie movie. Didn’t Cruise see this was a bad idea? OK it is a compelling story I suppose, but for goodness sake it’s about WWII. There are more immediate and compelling war stories that need to be told. It has FLOP written all over it!

=====================================================
I really don’t know Besane, I don’t think Crazy Tom was really thinking before he decided to do this movie. Maybe he thinks he can pull it off and get an oscar, and if that is what he thoughts, then he is wrong, cause he is not going to get an oscar nom for this piece of sh*t. He took a good story and spoiled it. I saw the preview and he suppose to have a German accent but he is talking all American english in that movie lol. I really think the movie would have been good without Tom in it. It is all about his ego

Deej…quit trying to think before you hurt yourself.

Happy thanks giving US fans!

Irma, the German chocolates are very yummy. Little Will loves it.
You are very thoughtful to send those chocolates.
With his angelic smile he was very happy to see me..We had fun playing as usual.
Thanks for the prayers. Happy Thanksgiving to your family in Florida. Best wishes to you there in Germany. ^-_^ Hugs & Kisses.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO THE JOLIE-PITT’S FAMILY !!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL JP FANS HERE IN THE US.
BEST WISHES TO ALL BELOVED FANS AROUND THE WORLD!!

UGH! I can’t stand this guy’s “acting” . I really hate ow Hollywod works sometimes. Just because some blind fat woman used to think brad Pitt was pretty he made it this far on little acting talent. Now that he’s losing his “good Looks” ( i never liked his fake plastic looks) Hollywood is still picking him over real talent to headline their movies. when will real talent be recognized over what middle america considers a pretty face.

why does he have so many woman drooling over his giant nose, close set eyes, monkey structured face? What has he done of importance before he met Angelina and they started the MIR project? would he be doing that work or living a life of giving if it wasn’t for her ? I don’t think so.

Brad Pitt As ‘Gollum’ Meets Redford
How do you make an instant classic? Can you replicate “Forrest Gump” or at least the feel of it? Will a great trailer ignite enough Oscar buzz to overcome a merely good film’s realities?

These are the questions posed by “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” which I saw yesterday afternoon and comes out on Christmas Day. David Fincher, known for movies like “Seven” and “Fight Club,” –each also starring Brad Pitt— was given the task of making a lump-in-your throat, cry like a baby film with Pitt as a man who ages backwards. Since people rarely well up during a Fincher movie for sentimental reasons they put “Forrest Gump” screenwriter Eric Roth on the project as protection.

Cate Blanchett co-stars, and the whole thing is supposedly based on a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Alas, this movie has about as much to do with the Fitzgerald story as Bela Lugosi would with “Twilight.” Except for the central conceit that Benjamin ages backwards, everything else is gone in this three hour epic. You can read the whole original story right here.

“Benjamin Button” is a lot of things: innovative, creative, technologically advanced. The trailer was so good that Oscar buzz started generating quickly. The result was almost like what happened to “Home for Purim” in the satire, “For Your Consideration.” Overnight, “Button” became the Oscar front runner.

Actually seeing it is a different story. Fincher has a lot of gadgets to play with. So Pitt’s early depiction of Benjamin, which takes up more than hour of the total three—that’s three—is a CGI process. Pitt’s head – made into that of an old man—is situated on a short, old man. The result is a synthetic character—a sort of geriatric Jar Jar Binks—matted into the movie.

But how else to do this? Benjamin is born a grotesquely wrinkled looking baby, but soon is about five-foot-five and an old man. “I’m seven years old,” he says at one birthday party. But he’s in his late 80s. You marvel at that Fincher and friends have accomplished this feat. Pitt’s head is a white haired balding orb set on top of a little person who is growing older by the hour. He’s Gollum from “Lord of the Rings” meeting Robert Redford, with a better wardrobe.

Strangely enough, there’s something very endearing about Pitt in this part of the movie. Setting aside the fact that he’s playing a CGI character, Pitt nearly succeeds in transcending the gimmick. He brings an unexpected pathos to Benjamin’s early life as he’s raised in a nursing home and watches the patients die off as he gets younger. (Almost what saves Pitt now as an actor is playing characters where his abnormal good looks aren’t a hindrance. See “Burn After Reading,” where’s he just great.)

But is it acting? Or is it a trick? The question maybe is sharpened because at the same time, thanks to Roth’s remaking of the Fitzgerald story. Fincher keeps cutting to modern times and the gifted Cate Blanchett lying in a hospital bed. Blanchett’s character is Benjamin Button’s former lover, who didn’t care that he suffered from this mysterious malady. She’s wearing the prosthetic makeup of old age too, but nothing about her has been digitized. She’s simply playing an old woman in the throes of death, and it’s very human.

All of this aging and de-aging is, by the way, set in New Orleans. Fitzgerald, for what it’s worth, had Benjamin raised by his father (the mother dies in childbirth) in Baltimore. In the movie, Benjamin is born in New Orleans. The mother dies, the father is so repulsed by a wizened looking baby that he throws him away and a local black girl (the terrific Taraji P. Henson) finds and raises him. The juxtaposed modern story is set against the imminent arrival of Hurricane Katrina. Why? Is it a metaphor? Or just because Brad Pitt is committed in real life to the rebuilding of New Orleans?

What’s easy about praising “Benjamin Button” – which will be a holiday hit, no doubt, and an awards contender— is all the technical stuff. It sure looks great, all the time. The make up department has done a bang up job. The production, the set, the lighting and costumes are all phenomenal. Two editors—Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall—have given the movie a dreamy feel that’s just right, and Alexandre Desplat’s score underpins the action with precision. There are also lovely supporting performances by Tilda Swinton, as Benjamin’s first love and Phyllis Somerville, as a tenant in the house where Benjamin grows up, as well as a very funny running gag about a man who keeps getting hit by lightning.

Just a literary note: Blanchett’s character, also invented by Roth, is named Daisy, I guess, as a wholly unnecessary nod to Fitzgerald’s most famous heroi

Jill @ 302, do you need a refill on your medication?

I have a right to my opnion and I have a right to post my opinion just like you have a right to skip, scroll, or whatever you want.

IT IS MY OPINION THAT ANGELINA can do better than Brad and his PR machine.

DID anyone else read the NYTIMES crappy article about Angelina? Isn’t it funny how whenever Brad makes a fool of himself (like he did on Oprah) something negative comes out about Angelina Jolie?

A distraction brought to you by Brad Pitt and his HUGE Pr Machine that surrounds him.

Just because I post my opinion about brad and his crappy acting that does not mean that I’m an Aniston fan, Tresjolie, or Shitzy.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, OLD LADY, JILL?

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

tres jolie denied she is tres jolie. this is funny.

Many wonderful things happened to this wonderful couple.
They are blessed.
Wait, I haven’t even seen Changeling yet.

OH Stuff it,

You could not have chosen a more appropriate name, if you tried. It is almost prophetic. :lol:

IB’s producer was with Angie At AAL, But Brad Pitt WASN’T?? hmmmmm :roll:

Are you aware of this new BI in CDAN about an A-list actress who has affair with one producer? It says her own movie’s producer , But it might be the Husband’s movie’s producer. Is Lloyd Phillips married or is he going through divorce? Anybody knows?

It’s so WEIRD that Angie attended this thing with one of IB’s producer , But not with Pitt. hmmm VERY WEIRD.

Did you ALSO know Angie and KIDS have left Berlin on Tuesday?! They are now in Ethiopia. The article i read , Clearly told Jolie and her kids. Not any mention of Pitt. more hmmmm

QQ U are one sick soul are u in your normal sense, why is it that you don’t have any good things to say, what will it profit you to see family with little kids breakup, why is it that your life is full of bad wish on a family that have nothing to do with yours, why is it that on thanksgiving holiday all your thought is to see the family breakup, are u out of your mind?
Well i believe if you are happy with your family and yourself, you will not spend everyday writing bad comment, but what you wrote spoke great volume of who you are.

i wish that God will make you to realise yourself before is too late.

Because normal human being will not spend his or her life on a blind item and to wish worst for others

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! To all the American J-P fans on JJ. Hope y’all have a great day.

To the moron QQ at post #317: You were prolly one of the jenhag idiots who were salivating at the thought of Angie going to her Changeling premiere in London all by her little self and without her hunky Bradley at her side. Then y’all had to swallow real hard when the truth was revealed and you learned, ONCE MORE, that Brad is fiercely protecive of his woman and his kids and will ALWAYS be by Angie’s side.

So when the Ethiopia pix come out and you see the entire J-P clan doing Thanksgiving together in ZZ’s country of origin, i sincerely hope you will swallow the crow in your throat and love it!

Go on pretending that you didnt learn FROM BRAD’S MOUTH when he was on Oprah, that the family will be in Ethiopia for Thanksgiving. (as if your werent glued to the Tv watching Brad on Oprah and lapping up his every word, LOL

BTW how’s that turkey working for ya?

Can´t wait for this movie. I´m gonna see it immediately when it opens here in my home country Finland some timre early January ´09. Also gonna see Changeling which opens here quite soon after TCCOBB. I´ll be somewhat disappointed if neither Brad or Angie don´t get Oscar nominations. But they have more important things in their lives than geting nominations or winning awards:their lovely children. They are the greatest gifts they´ve ever gotten!

Happy Thanksgiving to all Jolie-Pitt Fans.Blessings and Peace to All.

Hola! Bonjour! Hi haterz!…the champ is here…

…anyways, a couple things…hahaha

…Happy Thanksgiving…and…

…those 3 neighboring counties in NC…hahahahahahaha…not surprising…hahahahahhahahah…

Does anyone else find the fact that Variety called brad \” the usually press shy actor\” slightly odd and misleading? since when is he press shy? was he press shy when he went on NATIONAL television to cry about wanting children, when he gave all those interviews about his failing marriage \”marriage isn\’t forever\” crap,is he press shy when he pimps the kids out for the papz, takes intimate pix of the mother of his kids to promote his \”hobby\”? really now?

Angelina is the media manipulator while the child pimper is press shy? GMAFB and call that \”basterd\” out for using the mother of his children as a scapegoat.

Happy Thanksgiving to those in the US. My prays to those in India and to everyone else have a wonderful day.

Just catching up. Thanks to all for video, links and articles. Love that the kids know how to use chop sticks.
