BREAKING NEWS: Tom Cruise out for “Edwin A. Salt”…Angelina Jolie in…

Tom Cruise was once confirmed and attached to the film “Edwin A. Salt” but Cruise dropped out of starring in the leading role. Angelina Jolie is getting close to signing the leading role to take over Cruise’s place. The leading character will have a gender change and a possible name change of re-writing the script. Jolie will play a CIA officer who’s accused by a defector of being a Russian sleeper spy and must avoid getting captured to prove her innocence.

Angelina Jolie just gave birth to twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, Angelina and Brad should be staying home spending time with their kids, but I guess getting newborn babies is not stopping her from working on film either.

Report: $14 million just for baby pictures?

There they are, Vivienne and Knox Leon with their parents. These pictures are worth $14 million? Come on now, seriously? Nicole and Keith wouldn’t release their baby pictures for Sunday Rose at all because they don’t need money, they already are rich. Angelina and Brad are just being greedy cash cows, that’s all.

Are the babies really worth 14 million? Ridiculous! Angelina and Brad should feel ashamed of themselves for selling out their kids for that much.

At least they’re not giving it to “Entertainment Tonight” though. I’ll give them that.

Report: Brad Pitt on the fight against paparrazi and the media…

Brad Pitt and his lawyers are on the fight against anyone in entertainment media who pusblishes private family photos publicily that were taken by the paparrazi at Brad and Angelina’s French estate.

See the article and the threatening letter by Brad’s lawyers here at the Smoking Gun:

How stupid of the Smoking Gun to post the letter publicily when the reps just ordered them not to?

Brad is doing a great thing here. I hate the paparrazi.

BREAKING NEWS: Angelina Jolie gives birth to twins…FOR REAL this time!!!

For many months, rumours have speculated that Angelina Jolie gave birth to twins but her reps shot down those rumours everytime, saying it’s not true. THIS TIME IT IS FOR REAL! 🙂

Just like Nicole Kidman, this is Angelina’s first “born” children. Angelina has a few other kids but they were all adopted as well. Angelina gave birth to a boy and a girl. She named the boy Knox Leon and she named the girl Vivienne Marcheline. Yet again, more unique baby names. Of course, Brad Pitt was there the entire time she was giving birth. Angelina named the girls middle name Marcheline after Angelina’s biological mother Marcheline Bertrand who passed away.

Angelina just released an action flick which she stars in “Wanted” and next she will release a film titled “Changeling” which is directed by Clint Eastwood.

As for Brad Pitt’s future film projects, soon he will have a role in the Coen Bros. new movie “Burn After Reading”, and then he will star in a film titled “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” which he stars as Benjamin Button.

More great news! Now the media just need to leave them alone so they can have some peace. Congrats to Bradgelina.

Film Review: Wanted

Starring: James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman, and Terence Stamp

Directed by: Timur Bekmambetov

Finally! I get a few days off from work. On my day off of work today, I decided to go to the mall to see a movie and do some shopping around. I decided to check out “Wanted”, the new action/adventure flick starring Angelina Jolie.

The story/plot revolves around a young man who is an office worker named Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy). Wesley lives a bored life with his boss at his job torturing him, he has a bad relationship with his girlfriend, and just lives a bored life. When he runs into a woman named Fox (played by Angelina) forced him to be recruited in this secret society named The Fraternity. Wesley learns that his father has these powers where he can aim his gun anywhere he wanted and do super quick fighting moves like the Matrix style. Wesley is being trained to learn those special powers so he can help find his father and learn Wesley’s true identity. The Fraternity leader, Sloan (Morgan Freeman), helps Wesley in his training until Wesley learns that the Fraternity group is not to be trusted.

My thoughts on the film?

I thought it was a piece of garbage. Nothing but a typical popcorn action flick. It’s worse than “Die Hard 4” and I find it a total rip off from the “Matrix” movies. “Wanted” was too cartoonish and it wasn’t entertaining. I was pretty much bored through it. I don’t get why this movie is such a box office hit. James McAvoy was the thing about it, his acting is bad and he was so annoying throughout the entire film. I would give this film thumbs down all the way. This was the  worst movie of 2008 so far. Don’t worry, there are better movies coming out this month, this month of July we have “The Dark Knight” and “X Files 2” coming out and I’ll be seeing them both as well.

Score for “Wanted” = * (1 star as in poor)

Sorry Angelina, I’m glad you’re still doing action flicks, but pick a BETTER one next time!

On a side note, I did pick up “Guitar Hero: Aerosmith” for the PS3 at Best Buy today, I plan on trying it out for a little bit tonight. It shall be fun. I also picked up Motley Crue’s new CD “Saints of Los Angeles”, I’ll give that album a review soon.

The Life and Career of Angelina Jolie part II

After the major success of “Wanted”, it is now official that Angelina Jolie has turned herself into a big action movie star. Could she line herself right up there along Sly Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger? As a matter of fact, she just did. She is now considered the queen of action films. Look at all the action movies she has done that were pretty big hits in the box office: “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider”, “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider 2: the Cradle of Life”, “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”, and “Gone In 60 Seconds”.

Those are all action films she has done that made pretty high amount of money. When she does the sad drama movies, seems like no one cares for that. Everyone sees her as an action star, not a drama star. She needs to keep doing more action films. Since Angelina Jolie is my favorite actress that I’m a die hard fan of and I’m a die hard fan of Sly Stallone, I always wanted to see Angelina star in a movie with Sly. Angie and Sly starring together would shatter box office records indeed. Angelina and Sly teaming up really needs to happen soon. No, not Sly and Angie in a buddy cop romance movie, there’s too many of those. Just Angie and Sly teaming up to beat down criminals and partner up is good enough.

Keep doing more action films Angie. This is proof that action movies is your genre.

The Life and Career of Angelina Jolie…

So you may ask…how does she do it? How did Angelina Jolie go from a wild crazy and sexual chick back in her younger years to a big superstar mom? Is her relationship with Brad Pitt responsible for making her a big superstar? WRONG!

Angelina Jolie has always been a huge superstar in entertainment media way before she started dating Brad Pitt. Before “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” as pictured above, she wasn’t that well known. Before “Tomb Raider” she was doing all kinds of low budget films that no one even know about. Films like “Gia”, “Foxfire”, “Hackers”, “Pushing Tin”, etc. She started becoming a big name when she landed a role in “The Bone Collector” and “Girl Interupted”. But when she signed on to do “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” the whole world knows her now.

Brad Pitt is not responsible for her fame. She did it on her own without the help of anyone. She didn’t care if a movie she does bombs or if it’s a hit, she’s doing it for the love of acting. It was her father Jon Voight that got her started in acting, she had her first role as a child when she starred alongside Jon Voight in her debut of a film titled “Looking To Get Out”. She’s just like Drew Barrymore. Angelina has been acting in films ever since she was a little girl just like Drew.

Angelina had a long marriage with fellow actor/musician Billy Bob Thornton, during her relationship with him, she was still the wild crazy and sexual woman. But now she’s with Brad Pitt, Angelina quickly changed into this supernice and friendly mother instead of this wild person she used to be.

The truth is, she never changed. She always had been herself from day 1. She always had been a world traveler and always been a crazy and sexual person. The media had always tried to make a big story out of her because she is the daughter of legenary actor Jon Voight. So to say that Brad Pitt helped her become a different person is pretty laughable. She’s a powerful woman because she’s one of the most sexiest actresses in Hollywood today. She’s a talented actress that can play anything that throws at her.

I’m looking forward to seeing “Wanted”, I’ll be seeing that one too of course. Glad she’s finally got an action movie role. Hopefully she’ll still be on for “Tomb Raider 3” if they ever plan to do a third one.

Report: Fake Angelina Jolie birth rumours in France started by Entertainment Tonight…

Just more reasons to hate them Entertainment Tonight TV news magazines. ET was the first to exclusively report that Angelina Jolie gave birth to twins in France but Angie’s reps say it’s not true. She has not giving birth yet, she’s just enjoying her time with Brad and the adopted kids in France.

In reality, Angie herself hasn’t yet decided if she will give birth in France.

Angie just recently released “Kung Fu Panda” an animated movie which she does voice overs, Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman are in the film too. She is also releasing a film with Clint Eastwood titled “The Changeling”.

FOX News reports:

Boycott “Entertainment Tonight”. They are the worst thing going in the media today.

Thought: Another thought on Pitt being related to Obama, Jolie being related to Clinton…

Just another thought on the previous blog entry.

I would think that Brad Pitt always knew he was cousins with Barack Obama and I would think that Angelina Jolie always knew she was cousins with Hillary Clinton after all this time. How much do you want to bet that they made a decision and agreed to keep it a “secret”, to keep quiet about it, because the media will be all over it non stop?

It was bound to happen sooner or later that we all would find out once Obama and Clinton got big and popular.

How could a guy like Brad Pitt be related to a black man? Well there obviously had to be an interracial relationship thrown in there somewhere in the family. When you have an interracial relationship, there will be a huge mix. That’s the way it goes.

Just had to post this to get it off my chest.
