Brad Pitt ALWAYS ends up looking like the women he's with.

*********************************************************************

This is very true.
A New York gossip columnist (I can't remember the name) refused to cover Brad Pitt anymore because Brad morphs into his girlfriends and the reporter was tired of covering a man who merely become the male version of his girlfriends. The columnist felt that Brad was no longer interesting and worthy of coverage.

If you see Brad over the years, it's so true.
Blonde with Gwenyth (Fishsticks)
Light brown with Maniston
Dark brown with Saint Angelina.

Will the REAL William Bradley Pitt please stand up?

Mrs Patrick Campbell - you're not really a Mrs, are you?

I never had a problem with Tom as an actor.
I think he's done some really awesome performances in his day.

But then he took that Scientology to the next level and showed himself to be a nut. And making a fresh, young woman like Katie Holmes into a Stepford Wife turned alot of women off from Mr. Cruise.

But I do think Tom is a better actor than Brad. Brad is only good if the material and the people around him are good. Brad doesn't have the strength as an actor to make material work if it's all wrong.

Our husband has huge uncircumsized sizemeat plus humungous low-hangers.

Discuss.

First off...I now have a new hero.

Tom Cruise can act. Rice publicly apologized for her critique and praised him as Lestat. He's much better than Brad Pitt imho. I've yet to see a movie where Pitt wasn't outacted by a costar. Seven, totally outclassed by Spacey and Freeman. Fight Club? Meatloaf was better. HBCarter and the Hulk embarassed him. When he's in a movie, its a lock he's the least talented onscreen in any given moment.

Jolie can't act worth a damn either. She hit the fucking jackpot with Lisa from Girl Interrupted. She's yet to come close to playing a single convincing character. One can only pray this is beginning of the backlash against these two media whores.

I'll up the ante with the loons. JA isa better actress. I've never laughed out loud at any of her performances. I tried to watch a might heart, and couldn't stop laughing at that hideous count chockula accent.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Interviewer: You're playing one of the most famous characters in movie history. How come we don't see you in all the tabloids?
Daniel Craig: Because I don't want to be in them.

Mel Gibson: "Gimme back my son!"

AJ: "I want MY son back!" (See how she improved that?)

I can!
But thanks for reminding me!!

oh and i forgot rain man, cruise was fucking awsome in that movie
*****************

Who can forget Risky Business, Top Gun, A Few Good Men, Born on the 4th of July and Jerry M.? I even found him entertaining in Cocktails (yes I said it).

I can!
But thanks for reminding me!!

Cruise was pretty good in Born on the 4th of July. back then, I'd have guessed he's domeday be a real Oscar contender. He was effective in A Few Good MEn and handled the non-challenging Jerry M well. Since those 3 performances, I don't think he ever really succeeded, as far as skills go. I don't think he deserved the praise he received for Magnolia.
-----------------------------------------------

Thank you so much for saying it. Each time I try to point out how limited Cruise is, someone throws this Magnolia performance,which is very over rated.John C Reilly and William H Macy were way better than him in this movie.
Pitt is only good (or his agent)at picking his projects and chosing the people he gets his name attached to.I've seen lots of his movies, usually motivated by the other names on the credits.And he's almost always outclassed by his costars (Norton,Bana,Affleck) or too obvious in his quest for awards.Look,I put brown lenses to play a loon (12 Monkeys),I mumble with an accent (Snatch).He's not bad,it's just that you hear him scream "I'm all artsy you know,I'm not just a pretty face or a poster boy".Some guys like Mortensen, Depp, Bardem,Bana or the older Sam Shepard can do it effortlessly. Pitt can't.

*****************

I've never been a huge fan of Tom's but I give kudos to him for his slew of hits over the years. Granted he's had a shitty time recovering from his couch jumping incident and his ignorance about medication but before that he was the shit.

Who can forget Risky Business, Top Gun, A Few Good Men, Born on the 4th of July and Jerry M.? I even found him entertaining in Cocktails (yes I said it). His recent films suck ass because his reputation has been destroyed. I liked his cameo in Tropic Thunder ... now that was a change of character for him.

Brad was good in Snatch, Fight Club and 12 Monkeys...Tom was good in Magnolia
These actors are only good when they ar playing parts that acurately depict their true personalities.
Brad=Psychopath
Tom=Collossal Asshole

Angie just can't act at all. She relies too much on her looks to carry her through super stardom.

I also thought it was funny that Jenny Aniston's Marley and Me beat out Buttons...that had to hurt the ego a bit

lizzieb - nope, that's it dude, stonewash denim with a bit of darker dye in the croth, ergo he must have pissed himelf, ergo Peeboy. If there was ever an example to prove once and for all the insanity of the loon then this is it. Your honour, I rest my case.

As for them actor types, here's my two cents:

Tom Cruise - great comic actor (Risky Business, Jerry Maguie, arguably Magnolia, some other ones I can't think of right now I'm sure), not so great on the dramatic stuff. But as I have said over and over again, comic acting is actually way harder to pull off than dramatic. Everyone can get a bit upset (NB: AJ - "He's not mah son!"), but not that many people have great comic timing. You've basically either got it or you ain't, it can't really be taught. That's why I actually have a lot of respect for the Friends actors, all have great timing except Courtenay Cox who doesn't and is the only weak link. The others are pretty damn clever, its not just the writing that makes that show funny.

Brad Pitt - nope.

Angelina Jolie - can only do "eyebrow acting". Please see when she invites the make-up artist to participate in a naked photoshoot with her in Gia - does this by arching one perfectly shaped eyebrow - and MAMS - the same eyebrow arch means something to do with blowing Brad up - could be revealing. Then Tomb Raider, less eyebrow but still a ridiculous and laughable attempt at a posh Brit accent modelled entirely, I am convinced, on Liz Hurley's own attempt at a posh Brit accent i.e her own speaking voice (she ain't posh by the way, and it shows in her ludicrous accent). So that's it really eyebrows and bad accents. Discuss.

It's too bad she didn't lay into Jolie as well.

Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.

Oh, and I'll give all of you that Angelina may be a less than good actress and person, but I'm not ready to say she's unattractive. She's still very pretty in my opinion but the one thing I really dislike are those nasolabial lines on her face. We just rented Wanted and they were all over the place!

She looks like a wax dummy in this picture. Also, I challenge the Brangeloonies to claim she has never had surgery. She's had a shitload of plastic surgery!

Oh, and in my last comment when I said I disliked heavy accents... that's not really true. What I dislike about Holly Hunter's accent is that it seems like she's unsuccessfully suppressed it. Half in, half out. She should just let that rip.

I do agree with luscious_t on most of his/her points. But I didn't know Brad received accolades for Burn After Reading? Whatever. That was a funny movie, though. Sooo funny.

Okay, fine! (-:

I liked Tom Cruise in "Jerry Macguire" and "Collateral."

Angelina is looking really, really bad. For one thing, she looks like her tits have deflated from so many kids sucking on them. And her face, well, I think her face needs a little makeup. She doesn't look good. I know she thinks she is beautiful, but she isn't looking that hot anymore.

could this really be? Angelina looks.... ugly!!??

Yes she does.

Whoever agreed with me about Pitt & C Affleck - thank you for being so brilliant and right. :)

As for Cruise, I think he had potential to be a pretty good actor but somewhere along the lines of being crowned Xenu's savior he bought the hype and quit trying. Seriously, his acting looks poor even the *ads* for Valkyrie. I can't wait to see it to see if he's that terrible all throughout -- but I won't ever pay to see a Cruise film in the theater again, so I'll have to wait for now.

I notice that when naming "great" Cruise turns here, all are about a decade old, minimally.

Cruise was pretty good in Born on the 4th of July. back then, I'd have guessed he's domeday be a real Oscar contender. He was effective in A Few Good MEn and handled the non-challenging Jerry M well. Since those 3 performances, I don't think he ever really succeeded, as far as skills go. I don't think he deserved the praise he received for Magnolia.

Similarly, Pitt is overhyped and buys it, too. I can't think of even one role of his I've seen that could be considered Oscar-caliber. I didn't think he deserved his accoladres for Burn After Reading )haven't seen Button yet, as I refuse to see any of *his* films in the theater, too).

I think your assessment of TC is accurate although I would step it down a notch and say he was a very competent actor, rather than good. I don't think he's ever fumbled (but I haven't seen all his work) but in the same token, I've never seen him turn in a performance that was just shockingly good. I liked him in the Last Samurai but for me, Ken Watanabe just stole the screen.

And if that's Angelina you're talking about in paragraph #2, well, I agree 100%. I find her to be less than a mediocre actress and strangely enough, I dislike the way she speaks. Usually, it's people with heavy accents (Holly Hunter) or marbles in their mouth (Jodie Foster) who grate on my every last nerve. But Angelina, I hate the way she talks. Even Brad sounds like he's got marbles in the mouth. But I like actors who can talk... like Matthew Broderick. Lol.

I thought Tom was great in Jerry Maguire. Like, awesome great.

I still hate him though.

I got the feeling they were trying to hide Miss Jolie-Voight during the award show. They either cut off at StuPitts shoulder or someone's head was in the way. She was bent over once (probaly the one who barfed on Pitt) Karma is a bitch, I hope she learns from this. Tom Cruise was great in Born on the 4th of July.

In the words of MasterCard, "priceless."

LOL you rock!

Yeah, Little Tommy is indeed a good actor but he made the mistake of acting all crazy and holier-than-thou and his career went down the toilet. Brangelina should take notes of that. I liked Tommy in The Last Samurai too but the role that made him shine to me is Lestat from Interview with the Vampire. He was great in it.

-"Submitted by KidL on Tue, 01/13/2009 - 2:01pm."

Honestly, I always thought she was a mediocre actress. I used to not give two rat's turds about celebrity gossip so I knew nothing about her. I saw plenty of movies with her in them but she was never remarkable, she was more meh than anything else.

She was more model material than an actress. She had a pretty face even if her body is all odd and straight angles. But she's after media coverage because maybe she know's she's not good enough to stay relevant for her acting skills. Anyway, if I erase all I know about her NOW, I would still think she's a mediocre actress.

-"I am not about to deal with unstable people" - HEART ANGELINA.

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise are two actors that NEVER lose themselves in a part. I am always aware that I am watching Pitt and Cruise. This is of course a moot point, as I will never go to one of their movies again.

UKer,
I actually own Interview, and aside from Legend, that was his only palpable performace to date in my opinion.

As the editor of Norumbega reports: "Tom Cruise has never quite got the knack of acting....he seems to believe that completely different characters require little or no change in performance, but is mysteriously still making films nonetheless."

Brad should NOT have won an award for Jesse James. Those nominated were much better, IMO. That was Casey Affleck's movie - he's the one that carried the material, IMO. Casey was also really good in Ben's movie last year, too - I can't wait to see what he & Joaquin are working on.

UKer - no offense dude, but Tom Cruise is a one trick pony. He is the exact same character in every movie, IMO. The exact same inflections, the same level stare, the same intensity, the same insane grin. Every single role I have ever seen it was like he was the exact same character as the last one. No range. pffft to Tom Cruise's "skills."

Anne Rice hated TC for Lestat, he was all wrong for the role, if you read any of the books.

"I was particularly stunned by the casting of Cruise, who is no more my Vampire Lestat than Edward G. Robinson is Rhett Butler."

I've got to give props to TeriAnn for the "Peeboy" comment. This is a truly awesome diss in my opnion. You guys know the origin of this right? Well, get this yeah, listen up, its a good one: that idiot man who has the nerve to fancy someone other than Angelina Holier-than-thou, and that person being none other than that self-pitying, mom jeans wearing (you know the drill) fugly maniston/the "X", who goes by the name John Mayer, had the audacity to go out one evening wearing, wait for it, I repeat, wait for it, nothing other than.... stonewash jeans!!!!! Shock, horror, exclamation etc!!!! This said offending piece of stonewash denim had the audacity to be somewhat darker in the crotch area than anywhere else... shock horror etc!!! To the point where he looked like he had, wait for it ladies.... PEED HIMSELF!!!!!!!! Exclamation, shock, everyone dissolves in to laughter etc. Hence now all we should ever say is that Fugly Maniston can do no better than a man who will always be known as PEEBOY!!!! Ha ha ha oh yes sirree what larks! I kid you not ladies, this is the best they can do. Such is the mentality of the loon.

Brad Pitt ALWAYS ends up looking like the women he's with.

Look at this picture

He always takes up the characteristics of the women he is with.

Now if my husband dyed his hair to match mine, I would file for separation papers and make him see a psychiatrist.

Mrs. G,
If you don't like divorced people, than you don't like about 50% of adults in the US. Quite sad for you.
--------------------------------------------
no, no, she didn't mean it like that! Mrs G was just trying to say she doesn't like the people that are married, cheat on their spouses and because of that, end up getting divorced. It's the CHEATING she doesn't like.

. . . They are just a media item. Can anyone tell me how many good movies have they been in since they became a couple? are they block buster hits? are they at least good movies? nope. Because Angelina Jolie can't act so save her life and Brad Pitt is focused on other stuff besides being a good actor. He can be a slightly decent actor if he wants to, as someone already said it, when he's not trying too hard. But both suck major monkey balls and I trully doubt their acting skills will improve at all. They are together because they can exploit eachother. Period.
__________________________________________________

I'm glad that I am not the only one who never thought Jolie was a good actress. In fact, I always felt I was in the minority because I thought she was really bad. Before the Loonies go apeshit, I just want to say that IMO she won an Oscar for playing herself. That crazy, out-of-control tough chick persona may work when you are in your 20s but it's hardly going to make for a serious, long-term career.

yes Tom Cruise is a very actor, he's been acting all his life.
but on a serious note, i do agree that cruise does have what it takes, i loved him in jerry maguire, interview with a vampire, collateral, minority report....the list goes on, the guy can act the fuck out of a movie, it's such a shame that he's such a weirdo.
