On Friday, Brad Pitt took four of his kids to see Hugo. At almost the same time, Jennifer Aniston left the same movie theatre with her boyfriend, Justin Theroux. Now, you and I know it was a coincidence and they never actually ran into each other. That being said, someone somewhere will say the two planned it intentionally because they are still in touch and that they had a secret meeting. There have been stories written about less. They actually ran into each other at my favorite movie theatre. It is the only one with a bar and certain 21+ showings where you can drink in the theatres. I have not been going there as much lately though due to an incident with management. Apparently they look down on people bringing in In-N-Out into their theatres when they have perfectly crappy $8 hot dogs they are willing to sell you. I think they were more upset that people were offering me money trying to buy my burgers. They just would not believe my story that all 10 were for me. It was a 3 hour movie. Oh, and I did buy coke from the theatre and had spent $40 on booze, so you would think they would give me a break.
The only thing I have to add is that I hope someone buys Brad a shaver for Christmas because he looks awful. And that's a cute picture of Jennifer.
ReplyDeleteEnty, I'm sure they were actually meeting, so Brad could give his sperm donation to Jennifer. You know if she ever has her own bio baby people will speculate it's actually Brad's.
Enty, you must know that the entire financial foundation of Hollywood is built on 25 cents worth of popcorn costing $6.99.
ReplyDeleteYou cannot bring your own food, or those foundations will collapse and Justin Theroux will no longer be able to demand $10 million per picture.
Justin Theroux can demand 10 million? Really? Is this true?
ReplyDeleteAs for Jen, Brad ditching her for Angelina was the best thing for her career and she sure is milking it for all it's worth. Not that I blame her, but I still can't believe that people expect her to get back together with Brad.
This is a dumb story!! 'DNR' tabloid fodder. Their dumb triangle needs to die (well its a square now.)
ReplyDeleteWasn't their breakup like a decade ago? I can't believe people still talk about it. They weren't even that exciting a couple.
ReplyDeleteWhat would have happened if they HAD seen each other? Would the world have imploded?
ReplyDeleteI sneak stuff into movie theaters all the time. Never tried a burger though. Enty, do you carry a murse?
@shehla/cheryl: i agree with you
ReplyDeleteI say let him have Angie, tonight she's spreading her best line of BULL on 60 Minutes.
ReplyDeleteNow for the important stuff..I bring my own food and drink into the movies, those prices are insane and my food is better.
I'm team sneak-it-in as well!!! I mean c'mon. Movie theaters should just serve over priced booze and let you being your own food. I'd totally go!
ReplyDeleteI always bring my popcorn as well. And water. I don't even like theatre popcorn, I think the Whirly Pop is one of the greatest inventions. :)
ReplyDeleteSo stinking tired of all this nonsense. Probably leaked by Huvane too.
You know Jennifer Aniston has to be loving this. It is likely true that she wouldn't be as famous if the whole Brad Pitt thing never happened. She gets free publicity all the time, and all that has to happen to thrust her front and center into the spotlight again is her being tied in with Pitt or Jolie somehow - no matter how ridiculous the scenario, even though it's evident they both moved on long ago. People will continue to eat this stuff up because the whole drama is still unresolved in many people's minds.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's just that Brad can not bear having her in the arms of another man, and he's trying to convince her to leave Justin. Or maybe that Jennifer wants one last fling with her true love before agreeing to a long term loveless relationship? I also like the sperm stealing theory.
ReplyDeleteI've NEVER found Brad attractive. Well, maybe a little, in Troy, when he was mostly naked.
Oh yeah...I sneak in food too.
ReplyDeleteWhat if you have food allergies or intolerance to certain things? You should be allowed to bring your own snacks/drinks then.
ReplyDeleteNever liked Jenn with Brad, I was always hoping for a Gwenyth and Brad reunion.

ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of my favorite movie theater story. My friend went to the movies, and someone had dropped a cheeseburger on the floor and it was making a huge mess. She conscientiously went out and told an usher. His response? "We don't sell cheeseburgers." Huh?! O.O
ReplyDelete"I did buy coke from the theatre"
No shit. Your theaters got coke there? (Clueless shout-out.)
@Mina I totally agree! So many people have food allergies these days (myself included).
ReplyDeletein australia, the ushers and attendants are so young, they're not going to say boo to you about bringing food in - my husband quite often brings an esky in and drinks beer (before falling asleep and snoring throughout the rest of the film).
ReplyDeleteMy kids and I always hit Walgreens for 2 for 1 movie theatre candy before we head to the movies.
ReplyDeleteGood thing they make ladies purses so large these days!
And, Enty, you should come up to good ol' Portland, OR some day. Half of our theaters sell booze! When I did drink I always liked a nice pint of cider with my movie :) I think its because it rains here so much that even our movie theaters are inundated with alcohol. At least thats everyones excuse for drinking so much!
I wonder what Jen's original face would look like today...
ReplyDeleteI try not to go to theaters, but will make exceptions, especially when the grandchild wants her fix of twilight or Harry Potter. The grandpa and I spend a fortune on food and snacks..we don't want to set a bad example on the wee one by hiding nibbles in my handbag the other reason I don't like to go is the horrible manners of people texting or talking on their cells during the movie I can picture it if our theaters provided a wee dram wild eyed granny wacking a texter or two..as for the triangle it's getting boring and those loons who eat up the tabloid nonsense got to let it go.
ReplyDeletea friend and I once snuck an entire large pizza into a movie theatre near where she lived in new hampshire. there weren't many people there and it was cold out, so we hid it under a big coat. walked right by the ushers in the lobby who took our tickets. then when we got into the theatre we put it on the seat between us and ate it. the ushers weren't patrolling or anything and the other patrons either didn't see it or didn't care.
ReplyDeletethat was one delicious pizza.
In the old days, theaters got half of the profits from ticket sales. These days, they can get as little as 10% of the take for new releases. I try to at least buy a drink, because I know the concession stand is all that's keeping the theaters in business.
ReplyDelete@annabella - The image of your friend with an entire pizza up her coat made me laugh really hard. :)
ReplyDelete@Alicia - one of my favourite theatres is in Oregon! McMinnville, to be exact, in the heart of wine country. There's a theatre where they make pizzas and sell the local wine, so you chill out while you watch a movie snacking on a full pizza and delicious pinot noir...mmm love that place!
