Top 5 Best Brad Pitt Characters

Since Inglourious Basterds was released (review is coming), I thought it would be fun to rank the best of Brad Pitt's characters.:


5. John Smith (Mr. and Mrs. Smith)

Mr. Smith from Mr. and Mrs. Smith definitely deserves a spot on the list. Seeing him beat the crap out of Angelina Jolie and then having rough sex is a fantasy for anyone with genitals.



4. Louis de Ponte Du Lac (Interview with the Vampire)

The best vampire of any movie period.



3. Rusty Ryan (Ocean's 11, 12, 13)

Crazy Mustache + Brad Pitt = Win



2. Tyler Durden (Fight Club)

Watching Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden is like drinking a fine wine. Then you smash the bottle over your head and let the blood run down your face while you grit your teeth.



1. Lt Aldo Raine (Inglourious Basterds)

Bonjourno! I still can't believe how awesome he is in Inglourious Basterds. He plays one of the funniest characters I've ever seen because everything out of his mouth is instant gold. "You see, we're in the business of killin' Nazis, and boy, business is boomin'. "

B.P.R.D. 1947 #1 Review


Lets start with the facts:

1. Hellboy is incredible.
2. Anything related to Hellboy is also incredible


This issue of B.P.R.D kicks of the new story arc, 1947. The year is 1947, and the Professor (Hellboy's father) puts together a team to go investigate a composer in France. Two hundred years ago, the composer based an opera off of a party that he attended. The audience was offended by the opera so much that they burned the place down. The composer's works were all destroyed and he was put in an insane asylum.

What makes this issue great is that it doesn't reveal the mystery of what happened at the party two hundred years ago. The art is fantastic and Mignola is at the top of his game. Two things I loved in the comic was the cameo of Hellboy and the flashback of World War II. Go out and read this series because it's amazing.

Worst Movie Ending Ever!

This has to be the worst...

The Insider Review

The Insider (1999) is directed by Michael Mann and stars Al Pacino and Russell Crowe. This is a big departure for Mann since most of his movies are full of guns and bank heists. This is also a different sort of role for Pacino, who plays a producer for 60 Minutes.

The premise is that Jeffrey Wigand (Russell Crowe), a tobacco company scientist is fired from his job. Al Pacino's character convinces Wigand to give up company secrets even though Wigand signed a confidentiality agreement. What ensues is a downward spiral for Wigand.

The movie isn't really about the tobacco companies but more about the relationship between a reporter and its source. What makes this movie work is the inner conflict that Wigand has. He believes that he should tell the world what he knows but at the same time he doesn't want to put his family in jeopardy.

I liked this movie a lot actually. Let me warn you first that its a very long one at 157 minutes. If you can't sit through movies this long you can always just split it
into two sittings. If you are a fan of Michael Mann then I highly recommend it for the superb acting.

Stone of Tears Book Review

If you haven't read the first book then don't go any further because there are spoilers ahead. Read my review for the first book, Wizards First Rule

The Stone of Tears starts off right where Wizard's First Rule ended. Richard and Kahlan return to the Mud People to get married but Richard begins to have very intense headaches. Then three Sisters of Light show up to tell him that he is having these headaches because he is a wizard. They tell him that the headaches will kill him if he doesn't go with them to the Old World. The sisters say they will train him to use his powers which will cure the headaches. They must put a collar around his neck so they can control him which Richard has experienced before with the Mord Sith. Richard must now decide whether to believe the Sisters and become a slave again or stay with Kahlan and hope the headaches don't kill him.

I thought this book was phenomenal and just about as good as the first one. The author details the world a lot more and digs deeper into the magic. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time, reading and wondering how Richard was going to get out of every situation. My only problem is that I wish Goodkind didn't use Darken Rahl as the villain again. I feel like recycling the same villains doesn't make them much of a threat anymore. Luckily he is barely in the book because most of it deals with the Sisters of the Light.

If you liked the first book then I definitely recommend reading this. The good thing about the Sword of Truth series is that each book is a complete story so if you don't want to continue then you don't have to worry about any cliffhangers. In this case, after you read the first book you need to read the second one because it's just as good.
