John McCain says he'd be happy to see our troops in Iraq for another hundred years. I just can't agree with that.

I want him to put in a good word for me with his friend, George Clooney.
We'll have Brad as our best man at our nuptials.
My choices: 1. Obama. 1. Edwards. ... 9,999,999. Hillary.

and as such I love everything about she and her family. From the adorable kids to the hottie of a daddy.
I love that they feel N.O. is the place they want to raise the kids and it's where they feel normal. I love the Project Green housing project, everything.
Ok - time to pop over to my favorite Jolie-Pitt gossip page. :)

He was married to Jennifer Aniston and had an affair with Angelina and then dumped his wife. Brad has had a kid with Angelia but they never formally tied the knot. He may be good in helping others but I wouldn't consider him one of us.

If I recall correctly, Brad visited University of Missouri (his alma mater) back during the '04 elections and did an appearance at Jesse Hall, the main venue at Mizzou, for a screening of Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11.
He's no Bush fan.
Good to see he's using his fame in in positive ways.
Oh well, I wasn't using that civil liberty anyway.

but I think he's one of us. He did say, "Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able."

I used to work sci-fi conventions as a business and during that time got to rub elbows with a lot of movie/tv types. The story I got at the time was that Brad was a real primadonna to work with (a lot like Adrian Paul) and a continuing hassle to writers/directors/the staff and just about everyone around him. As the story goes (and I'm just passing on possibly erroneous rumors) he did a complete turnaround during the filming of Seven Years in Tibet. Somehow the place, the story, the truth behind the dramatization, or something else in that combination of things touched him and created a spiritual awakening and awareness in him that has over the years turned him into the icon everyone loves now. Without that movie and the experiences he had he was headed down the road of prettyboy Hollywood well known has been like Val Kilmer. I can completely emphasize with your sentiment but with the work he does and the things he stands for now I think he's one of the few who deserve every bit of success he gets. George Clooney is another one especially after producing Good Night and Good Luck.

I didn't know Adrian Paul was considered a prima donna, he always seemed to want to do more with Highlander, a concept I always thought was great but was never (or rarely) taken where it should go. I'm a huge Methos fan...

"ONE of these diaries should have hit the rec list but we're still so bogged down in calling each other names that we fail to see an opportunity in this season of giving."
I couldn't agree w. you more. These diaries deserve all our attention ... and the namecalling and ridicule of and ganging-up on fellow posters must stop. Everyone who has experienced that kind of thing knows what I am talking about.

I don't suppose it IS explainable, why some people see good looks where others see blah??
Mr Pitt is a nice guy, and apparently real lucky in love, and apparently a good father, and really understands how to use "celebrity"!
BUT... I have NEVER understood the swooning over his looks. Now, Clooney, Depp, post-bond Connery, etc., even Matt Damon, for those into sweet neoteny -- those guys I get. But, TO ME, Pitt is just another blond football jock. There's just no there, there! (As far as JUST looks is concerned.) Maybe I'm just old?

He and Jennifer Anniston were like homecoming king and queen, good looking, yes, but not to die for.
Now Johny Dep and George Clooney....absol***lutely!

it's swooning over his acting I don't get. In my book, he's very good looking, I like his commitment to causes but his acting is only mediocre. Oh well, it gave him the money and celebrity to be able to do much good.

I thought he was superb in that! He's grown both as a person and an actor.
by jiml on Wed Dec 05, 2007 at 06:26:32 PM PDT
He just seemed very one-dimensional as an actor for a long time. But I will give Babel a try.
by kainah on Wed Dec 05, 2007 at 06:33:07 PM PDT
He also got positive critical notice for these: 12 Monkeys, Snatch, Fight Club, Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford.
I like Terence Malick-type of movies which are elegaic meditations so I loved AOJJ. It's worth seeing just for the master DP Deakins' cinematography, Nick Cave's music, the amazing, pitch perfect performance by Casey Affleck (the real star of the movie) as Robert Ford, and Brad Pitt's paranoid turn as Jesse James. Casey's performance needed Brad's to play against, just like Dustin Hoffman needed Tom Cruise in Rain Man.
I had to see Babel 2x, the first time I couldn't get past the tabloid target in order to see his character.
