Pitt seems to do best with weird or eccentric characters. Twelve Monkeys, Fight Club, and Burn After Reading are his best performances, I think.
Meet Joe Black > *
Also fairly eccentric though.

i prefer subtitles to voice-overs. more often than not, i'll watch the subtitled version then re-watch it in the native language for the reasons you mentioned.

Yes, heaven forbid that people watch films in languages other than their native one, or even -- *gasp* *sputter* -- try to *learn* a new language and then watch movies in it! Only snooty self-styled "intellectuals" would do something like that.

And who are you, all that is art and culture? Talk about missing the point. Ok then, substitute the Cannes Film Festival with the Maremetraggio in Trieste, Italy if it makes you happy.

nah... I guess not.

It was either that or a facepalm. lol. I broke out the eyeroll because I was talking about pseudo/wannabe intellectuals, or those who are impressed with themselves and feel the need to passively let people know about it... not actual intellectuals. Modesty is important.

Ok, so I hope the Renzo has received his fill. May I inquire to rated R comedies? I saw Superbad on DVD and have fallen in love with high school boys. Anything similar with the adventure of high schoolers?

I'm whatever. Point is you probably listen to tunes most people never heard off, but i assume it's because of an interrest in music..not becuase you're a wannabe intellectual.
