Brad Pitt: Being With Angelina Jolie is a Natural Direction
Brad Pitt reveals just how much portraying the backwards-aging title character in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button has colored his perspective on his varied life. Sitting down with the L.A. Times, Brad shares new insights:
On age versus youth: “Once you hit 40, you start reexamining the math of it all… I’ll trade wisdom for youth any day.”
On finding real love: “It’s a tragedy in the sense that any love involves loss, and that’s the risk you take. And the greater the love, the greater the loss. I certainly feel that now with the woman I’m with, and the children that I have. But whatever the course may be, this time together is extraordinary.”
On how being with Angelina Jolie changed his life: “I had a whole other life and I got to experience a lot. And I probably got away with more than I should. And it kind of ran its course, you know, it kind of hit a dead end. [Fatherhood is] the direction I always thought I would go in. But not until, with Angie and it felt like a natural evolution, a natural direction.”
On his work as an actor: “I don’t have to grope as much for the character… I can get there quicker, so it’s not as much trial and error. Also, as I get older, more experiences, I’m more fine-tuned in what I’m after, what I think speaks in the piece. And lastly I want to hurry and get home to my kids.”

huh
If being bipolar means you get defiant when people always cast stones especially at women then I guess I am. I am always open to listen and be fair to any person. It’s not that I’m a fan af AJ but ti any woman out there that’s being scrutinized and the guy getting off scotch free is upsetting to anyone. Call me what you wish. But if most people would bring the truth to this thread and be completely honest and look at people for who they really are then this would be a better place to conversate. If I say something that uthink isn’t true then tell me and explain the truth to me instead of calling me names.
Not sure if it has been posted yet but for the week ending 28 December 08 (which is the latest info on Boxofficemojo), BAR was the No. 1 rental. Wanted occupied that spot a few weeks ago and still occupies no. 8 spot. Kung Fu panda is no. 21 after 49 days of release.
just doing a quick drive-by to see what’s up - same old, looks like!
Hope everyone is having a great day - if not, check this out. this is what you call a bad day! This guy was literally freezing his *ss off. :lol: :lol:

CCOBB had the highest per-screen gross on Monday. The holidays are over, the kids are back in school, and the grownups don’t want to see a mutt movie. The award season is coming up, CCOBB is nominated for multiple awards, and the mutt movie is nominated for nothing. Plus CCOBB is already doing better than the mutt movie overseas. Check the box office again in two to three weeks and see what’s happening then. And in the meantime, Brad’s enjoying life with Angie and their children, and poor Jen is stuck at home wondering who Mayer the player cheating on her with behind her back. Sucks to be Aniston, poor thing
>>>>>>>
Hope you are right Jill. Trend seems to be moving that way plus all the positive news of CCOBB in the GGs and oscars and CCA.
It does turn my stomach a little though to think that everytime anything happens to CCOBB, M&M will get a mention. sighhhh…

Damn…that was fast. I gave ya until at least tomorrow. Instead your dramatic exit lasted was a whole 2 hours and 13 minutes. A new record. Congrats.
-
BTW - You get brownie points for not changing your name. That won’t buy you a cup of coffee, but ya can’t have everything…and apparently neither can we because we barely had time to talk bad about you before you popped up again…
Sigh….She didn’t leave for good.
Brad is on the Feb cover of W Mag. And supposedly commented on X’s “uncool” statement.
I jus saw this item regarding the Feb cover of W mag.. does anyone know what was said.. I am bracing myself for the crazy Jen fans to start the rant again. If you know something please post…Jared seems ot be out of the loop on this… Non of the other sites have said anything at all. I saw this on Extra and on E news.. Tomorrow will reveal all.. Why does Jared not have anything..

>>>>>>>>>>
ya know, wobbler, I don’t know if you are bipolar or not and frankly, I wouldn’t insult someone who IS bi polar by calling you one.
You however, have some other issues and I’d say you should get help. I didn’t bother to read your first long a s s post but I did glance through your second one and now let me quote your second, shorter post:
W: (Brad) Has a drinking problem.
L: Where on earth do you get that info from? This is defamatory.
W: He aquires one of the seven deadly ones Pride in himself. He’s put on the role and walks around like he is perfect because so many people have told him that BS.
L: Do you know him? Spoken to him? When did he say he was the greatest anything?
W: He is aging and AJ makes him feel young.
L: Again, how do you know?
W: Out of all the names people come on here and call AJ for being a victim, you get pissed at someone for calling out Pitt. He is nice and a good but he has faults too.
L: I don’t know about others but I’m pi ssed when you get slanderous about Brad.
W: To top it off he is jealous of AJ.l He doesn’t want any men near her or does he want her to do certain roles or scenes, but he’s doing n u d e love scenes w/CB.
L: How do you know he doesn’t let her? Are you seriously an Angelina fan? Can you imagine Angelina being prohibited from taking roles and saying “Oh, Yes Brad, Anything you want Brad!!” :lol:
W: She hasn’t did one since she’s been with him. Don’t include that kiss scene from Wanted because there was a love scene that she decided not to do. Do your research.
L: I did. And BTW, Angelina did a nekkid in Wanted. The character could support a nekkid scene and it was in context. Naturally, Angelina would not do a nood scene as Marianne Pearl or Christine Collins or she would end up looking like x posing nekkid in GQ for a family movie!! :lol:
W: Now he’s jumping on nearly every movie role he’s offered.
L: Exaggerate much wobbly?
W: AMH =people say she took that role from JA he was the producer and did not say ONE WORD about the fact that MP wanted AJ to do it. Nothing ,Nada you get my drift.
L: BU LL SH*T. What do you think the press conference with Marianne Pearl in the front and centre, purposely addressing the question of race with respect to Angelina all about?
Though I truly believe that x had sufficient editorial control to have the nasty comments in the VF interview about Angelina REMOVED, there was NO proof that those comments came out of x’s own mouth.
The last Vogue etc interviews were different because x actually said those words, was prepared to be quoted. Brad’s recent responses, as I see it were a direct riposte against words out of x’s own mouth, not something written by a journalist as a cheap shot or by tablie editors like meanie or lies and stuff.
You may want Brad to respond to every bit of slander out there printed by the likes of Meanie, or outtatouch. In my opinion, it’s good Brad doesn’t as HE would be the biggest loser, lowering himself down to the tablie level, trying to control something he actually doesn’t have much control over. And just as WE cannot stop you or Tres jolie or shtizy and their various personalites from being defamatory, neither really can Brad or Angelina. There is, as you like to point out, a little matter of freedom of speech and how even you, meanie and the rest tablies and trolls can have an opinion. :roll: :lol:
finish.
I hope that W thing is not true. Why would Brad do a magazine cover in Feb? He doesn’t have a movie coming out.
guli #2281. That’s really a very beautiful picture of Angie, like you, it’s my first time to see it, why they didn’t post that picture before, where did you get it?
Hello anoble, how’s everything? vicki, how’s your mom doing, I hope she is feeling alot better.,senior, haven’t heard from you for a few days, enjoy your time with hubby & g-kids.,Neleh, have fun doing the belly dancing,I watched your video, that’s really hard to do. MF, how are your father, father in law doing? Aren’t you excited, you will be a g-ma again. How’s little Bradley? Do you want some more kalamansi?
Waving to Bailey,andromeda,guli,anustin,passing through,the real tita,cliniqua,gena,cinnamon,alexanderina,bdj,Dina#1,just me, Felinelilly & of course neer. I like reading your post. Goodnight to all the Brangelina fans. Z will be 4 in a few days. We are also going to see the mommy & daddy on the red carpet on Sunday. I’m excited.
God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.

Aaaaahhhhhh…the trolls never disappoint. They ALWAYS backtrack…

Brad obviously has a good relationship with W and he is the hottest male actor at the moment in the hottest movie of the moment so I don’t find it odd that with awards season upon us that he would consent to an interview… and let us not forget, the RS interview may have been the first of a trifecta in terms of putting X in her place.
Everyone has ragged on him for so long for keeping his silence, I would welcome a ‘cover’ with a response to the ‘uncool’ statement. Like I posted last week, I think he’s done had enough of sitting on the sidelines watching his babie’s momma get bashed continually by his X of four plus years. He knows she knows the truth and she is playing PR games on the backs of his loved ones.
Let the man have his day. How many covers has X done and managed to throw turds his was in the form of mocking his partner and children and making herself out to be just a wounded little ‘girl next door’……….take her on, Brad. It’s time.

Oh really? BBBBWWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

In the past Brad has been very carefully NOT to respond to any of X’s crap. Apparently he has reached his limit and is no longer playing Mr. Nice Guy. Let’s all hope he uses a word harsher than “uncool”…
I heard he finishes off aniston once and for all without mentioning her by name, exposes her pr games and trickery, and also puts lie to the we keep in touch bullsh-t. she’s toast. exposed as a liar. all done with a few words, and then brad is on to the next thing that matters.
If Brad is on the cover of W mag, then JJ (hopefully) will give us a new thread.
This is along thread already. Haven’t read page2 to eternity..
Oh I should have posted, but there is a cover picture somewhere. It is a Black and White thing.. I am not loving the cover but oh well. I just don’t want this to be the focus. Jennifer has had enough media coverage. I was hoping this Awards season would be about Brad and Angie’s work,.. Not Brads past, past, past relationship…
This has definitely been Brad and Angie’s year. 2009 is looking to be another great one for the family too. I mean they have been the number one couple for the last 4 years. But now with this interview (grant it we don’t know what was said) but I just want the focus to be on the great work they have done.. Jennifer has no place in that equation.
I just want to see them all beautiful and hot on the Red Carpet… I want them and Pitt P***.. That is all I want.
I’m just sick and tired of the stupid triangle.
Oh D.kay. You wish? But it ain’t what you are asking. He didn’t throw his ex under bus. He told , he doesn’t get into these whole dramas. He didn’t even say one word defending Angie , let alone throwing his ex wife under bus. :lol:
.
Brad even admitted that he and Ex talk constantly and they are in a very good and lovely friendship.
.
I’m still LOL , because when i told you about W’s cover afew months ago , You laughed and called me liar. I’m happy that it turned out , that i wasn’t lying. And i knew it. :lol:
.
Now remember what i told about the whole interview. He talked about kids , Angie’s W’s cover and more interesting comment than Jen’s one is How he still doesn’t believe in happy ending or how relationship are not meant to be forever.

I really like the way Brad’s face has aged. It’s more rugged, rougher, more strength in the face then when he was just a ken dolly.

shitzy/ritzy, give it up. You are too obvious.
i don’t know if this has been posted yet, but instead of entertainment tonight being on, in it’s place is the making of TCCOBB. CHECK IT OUT. hello fans.
booobaby @ 01/06/2009 at 9:49 pm I heard he finishes off aniston once and for all without mentioning her by name, exposes her pr games and trickery, and also puts lie to the we keep in touch bullsh-t. she’s toast. exposed as a liar. all done with a few words, and then brad is on to the next thing that matters.

From AN INSIDER:

dear 2306, see above (boo is right). you and your idol will get the smackdown. By the way, we know you are also lurking on another board (probably jjb) and here - and you must have read the discussion where a poster brought up a poster from jj’s months ago who brought up a W cover - so you ran over here and are claiming to be that poster.
.
Nice try liar. lol
.
brad smokes his ugly x in W - all without even uttering her name. sorry to disappoint.
.
your comments make no senseeven to people unlike me, who haven’t read the W - Brad’s done about a dozen interviews, and not mentioned her ugly as.s in one of them - and in his last interview (the one whose thread YOU ARE IN now- hello?? lol), he actually says his life was going nowhere and it was a dead end during the maniston years.
.
So how is brad going to suddenly do a 180 of all those interviews and say he and Aniston ‘talk constantly,’ when not even aniston when her feet were held to the fire said that they do - she said the opposite, that they RARELY do - or does ‘a few warm congrats on your babies,’ equal ‘constantly’ to you?
.
Nice try troll. But get ready for another smackdown from Papa. lolol
shitzy’s in the house.
.
..and that’s why I don’t like JJs anymore.
.
Along with repetitive lame pics of Angie he always uses for lame threads, the tabloids he always links to her name, the old stale threads and resistance to use actual good news and info as new threads (bafta long list of nominees would be a good new thread for both Brad & Angie)….
.
we have to contend with shtzy and her ilk constantly.
.
Its clear they are lurking on the main brangie sites and run from ff, to here, to there, to everywhere - spreading silly ****.
.
these b*tches are as reliable as our old friend, ‘tick-tock,’ remember her. lol
.
I just can’t take the annoyance.
