Pitting Brad Pitt.

Other that the oddity of pitting a Pitt, seems like weak sauce for a pitting. So you didn’t like a movie. No one made you go. Brad, especially, didn’t make you go.

So you’re saying the movie would have been just fine with someone else in the lead role?

He got $16.50 from me, and it was well worth it. First 3D movie I’ve seen since Jaws 3D. Quite impressive technology, and a decent popcorn flick.

What if he did? I mean, we’re all sitting here dismissing the OP, but maybe he kidnapped, tied up, taken away and held for ransom. We should be calling the cops, not laughing about it.

In other news…what movie didn’t you like. I know it’s cool on the dope to not like big movie stars, but I mostly like Brad.

I’m thinking he’s talking about World War Z…

If that’s the case, Brad owes the OP a hell of a lot more than $8.25 and 2 hours back.

But maybe the OP is very litigious and is just like “Hey man, just gimme my money back and we’re good”. Besides, if Brad can give someone two hours back, that would be pretty cool.

ETA, maybe he has Stockholm Syndrome.

Or, maybe he got to meet Angelina. That’d balance the scales somewhat.

I’m confused. He kidnapped him and held him for ransom, but still charged him for the movie? Did he take a debit card or did he take a $10 bill out of **alphaboi867** ’s pocket and give him back exact change?

The bashing started well before the movie came out. I assumed most people who wouldn’t like World War Z were well aware they wouldn’t like it from what they showed of it.

We need Brad Pitt to make a really bad movie called _Pit,_ so we can Pit Pitt for _Pit._

Or he could make an historical movie about William Pitt, for whom Pittsburgh is named.
