RIP Brangelina

I choose to remain mildly aroused where Aniston is concerned.

Don’t post in a thread if you have no interest in it, rather than dump on it.

All marriages end, if not in divorce, then in death. I figure they got off easy.

Everyone is making a big deal out of how Anniston must feel, how karma finally came around, etc., etc. They conveniently forget that Brad and Angelina have been together for 12 years, have three biological kids, and several co-adopted as well- if that’s what counts these days as a side piece, then I’d hate to see what these folks consider a one-off. I count them in the same crowd as the people who were gleefully exclaiming at Gene Wilder’s death that ‘Now he can be with Gilda!!’- his wife of five years- while conveniently forgetting his wife of almost 25 years, Karen Boyer, was at his side through his entire illness/death.

She’s alleging pot and alcohol abuse and anger problems, and expresses enough concern for her children that she wants full physical custody of them. She’s not asking for spousal support. Isn’t that what we expect a parent to do?

For anyone wondering how Jennifer Aniston is feeling about all of this, boy does she have an answerfor you:

But does she stand during the national anthem?

The point is that Jolie had an affair with a married man and convinced him to leave his wife for her. Did she really have any basis for thinking Pitt would be faithful to her when they were married?

If she drags him back into the ring & we boo enough, is there any chance “Caesar” can still give the thumbs down…?

Thank you for mentioning this. It irritated me too.

God Damn It… The one thing I thought I could depend on in this crazy world of ours. Can’t let the bastards see me cry, so I’ll don these sunglasses.

Sure, in her mind there’s only one Angelina Jolie.

Totally.

His book “Kiss Me Like A Stranger” is a fascinating read, BTW. Details the sorry minutia of his marriage to Gilda.

@ISiddiqui

Apparently this is the result of Jolie finding out that Pitt was having an affair with Marion Cotillard… who Pitt was staring in a movie with where they both play spies that fall in love (Allied)… I don’t think anyone could have made that up.

I’m sorry, but that’s hysterical!

And, I guess I’ll be the asshole: I didn’t even know that Gene Wilder had gotten remarried after Gilda Radner died. I’d never heard of Karen Boyer, prior to this thread but, now that I have, I agree that that sucks.

EDIT - OMG, I just got the “boob man” joke!

It appears the little tease is a 9/11 truther.

Good luck with that, Brad.

And a moon-hoaxer. Really. I read an interview in which she cast doubt we’d landed on the moon.

[bienville]

Sheesh! This messageboard is so U.S.-centric!

@ivylass

Marion Cotillard is French. In France, 9/11 is November 9th.
November 9th 1979 NORAD detected a Soviet nuclear strike. This turned out to be a false alarm.
The November 9th Truthers are completely correct about this one.

Is this a Whoosh?
France’s Moon Landing was an obvious hoax and you’re pitifully gullible if you think it was real.

Nothing to see here. Sorry.

Were they married at the time? Or just super-duper serious?

[Budget_Player_Cadet]

@Little_Nemo

What supposedly prompted the divorce was Pitt having an affair with an actress he was making a movie with. How could Jolie have possibly foreseen that happening?

I’m kind of shocked they didn’t have an agreement. It’s like, “Hey, we’re both rich, powerful, and absolute sex symbols, we’re going to be around young and attractive people, maybe we should just say that it’s okay to give in to temptation every once in a while?” Swinging is a thing, guys. C’mon.

…Although if he was being an abusive drunk as was implied upthread, that would make a lot more sense.

For me, if there’s anything refreshing about the story it’s that the woman he had an affair with is only three months younger than his wife (this time).
