Gambles? I thought Brad was box office gold? Sounds like they are prepping for a flop.

Please. Only the LOONS with their infinite stupidity think that Brad is "box office gold". The last time he could open a movie was back in 1994, and he is still somehow managing to (barely) coast on that success.

Is this how they both get work? Check out this quote

Button" had a long and tricky gestation before Paramount gave it the greenlight. Producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall brought the movie to Fincher, who brought in Pitt, but cost and visual effects concerns bedeviled the project until Brad Grey took over as chairman of the studio and asked, "Do we have anything for Brad Pitt?"

Looking over Pitt's filmography, he has had very few "hit movies" for someone considered such an A lister. Will be interesting to see how his career fares in the future.

And that's the Brad Grey (scum) & Pitt connection right there that we have talked about in the past.

Thelma and Louise is considered his big movie break through. Fact is Brad did many before that which were flops. He was the star of Dark Side of the Sun and now his name isn't even associated with it. The business was very forgiving of him as an actor and still is both as actor and producer. It's very syuspicious.

If it weren't for Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt wouldn't be the success he is today. Look at all the classless skanks he dates. Jennifer Aniston was the ONLY decent one. Made him look good to the MASSES of woman. Now look at his dumb, ugly ass. Yet again with a skank.
