Brad Pitt - Why Does He Engender Discussion on DL?

Because he looks like a pretty girl?

Because we are one of his faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaans!

Because he is the American dream. Humble hick roots, dropped out of college, drove to Hollywood with $20 and now is the biggest star in the world. And he got there by sucking some dick too

Who fucking knows.

Dude can't act and had the face of a child.

I hear he's a nice guy. So what? Lotta nice guys.

[quote] Why Does He Engender Discussion

OP Do you know what 'engender' means? Are you sure it's the best word here?

I don't know. He's the biggest movie star of the past thirty years, I guess.

He's got a wide head like Rooney.

He is past his prime. He knew he was at the beginning of his decline when he showed butt in 'Troy'.

Pipe down, Jules.

I'm the queen around these here parts.

There's a lot of fraus who had crushes on Pitt, DiCaprio, Depp, Reeves and start a million threads on them out of nostalgia. Theres also the Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston drama that was tabloid fodder. Then there's Gen Z posters also are obsessed with them because their youthful images live on social media. As a gay teen, I jacked off to Fight Club, Thelma and Louise and those nude pics of Pitt online. So he was part of my gaywakening. I don't find him very interesting though nor do I consider him the most "beautiful man ever." But I do find it pretty hot he was a gay hustler sucking dick back in the 80s to get a role.

There's many hotter actors than him like Dylan McDermott, Brendan Fehr, Jesse Bradford, Boris Kodjoe, Matthew Fox, Chris Meloni, Colin Farrell, etc. He just had the right look, was in the right place and had the right timing.

He was AF in Once Upon A Time.

He didnt have any connections in Hollywood and had to work for 5 years as an extra before he got his big break in thelma and Louis.

He played with the right dicks before one of the directors/producers got him that breakthrough role. Just like what happened with Tom Cruise.

He had to lower himself as a houseboy to a head soap writer but it got him his first tv appearance and he didn’t have to pay for the rent/food he just had to do house chores, look pretty and maybe some spicy stuff too.

No, R21, Alice Faye. They both have wide heads.

Because geezers never fell out of luv with Tristan.

His character in Legends of the Fall was a selfish obnoxious idiot that I wanted to punch repeatedly. Fuckable, yes but relationship material, nah. River Runs Through It, gave him a more likable character to swoon over.

[quote] Because geezers never fell out of luv with Tristan.

How about Isolde?

He's an All-American good ol boy next door who played baseball, went to church and sold cookies for the school fundraiser. That's his appeal. He very attractive but has no edge or a strong personality. Which made him marketable and a good face to sell Hollywood globally. Even his name Brad is as whitebread as can be. Same deal with Tom Cruise initially but Tom showed his crazy in the 2000s.

Brad did attempt to do some interesting things like True Romance, Kalifornia, 12 Monkeys and Fight Club but he was just playing crazy with little nuance there. He's probably better off producing and writing.

Honestly, I always thought Kurt Cobain had a prettier face than Brad Pitt.

Kurt Cobain probably would have been a better actor. He knew pain and he emoted. I heard many directors want Cobain for roles but he turned them down.

Have you seen Inglourious Basterds, OP? He's a stah. He radiates charisma.

Brad is at the age in his life were he does 10 min cameos for a rom com movie (Lost City) and lead in an action film ( bullet train) for the salary.

Really, r25? I thought his character was destroyed by guilt over his brother’s death.

I looked a little like Brad Pitt when I was younger. Actually, I looked a lot like him. His fame really helped my teens and twenties!

Turned out my first boyfriend was obsessed with Brad/Tristan in Legends of the Fall. He begged me to grow out my hair. I did. Man, did he fuck me like a whore once that happened.

Lucky you, R36. Share more of your Pitt lookalike adventures.

Cute from his early days.

He looked too fem when young. He peaked in his 30s between Se7en and Fight Club.

R39 you like him at his lowest body fat percentage.

It’s that lush lower lip.

I'm happy to see any discussion that doesn't involve Meghan Markle.

Brad did it the hard way since he has no connections in the industry, it nearly took him 7 years as an extra/side jobs and he was close to 30 when he got his big break in Thelma and Louis.

Thelma and Louis? Susan Sarandon played a man?

[quote]He was yummy in Seven

And repeatedly outclassed in every scene by the rest of the cast.

Because we got to see his dick.

Who believes these bullshit stories about people arriving in Hollywood with twenty bucks in their pocket?? Actors are paid liars. Gimme a break.

[quote] Have you seen Inglourious Basterds, OP? He's a stah. He radiates charisma.

He was the weakest link in that movie and gave a very embarrassing performance. Christoph Waltz acted circles around him.

Brad sold his looks and body. He had pretty white boy privilege also where everyone will do you favors and give you money in vain hopes of getting a kiss or blowjob. The screen loved him though and he stood out enough to maintain a Hollywood career. Marketable good Southern/Midwestern boy looks who would provide fantasy boyfriend material to horny young girls and gays. Brad easily come have ended up on the gay porn circuit that some disillusioned failed model or actor goes.

[quote]Who believes these bullshit stories about people arriving in Hollywood with twenty bucks in their pocket?? Actors are paid liars. Gimme a break.

Or quitting college "one credit shy of graduation" to go to LA to become an actor. Please. Dude flunked out.

Because we hate Angelina.

because he has yellow skin

Brad Pitt is still Beautiful to me, we're the same age. :-)

Midwest and Southwest produces a lot of hot cornfed twunks and hunks. A lot of male porn stars and influencers are those hot jocks from the flyover. But they typically age like shit. If Brad didn't hitch it to Hollywood at a young age. He'd be married with twenty kids working as a truck driver and overweight and sweaty.

A better question OP is why are DLers always so bitter and jealous about famous people in a way that has nothing to do with "pointless bitchery"?

Do they not realize there's no way to say "Brad Pitt isn't really that handsome" without sounding like a bitter jealous 350 pound basement dweller?

And maybe he's not your ideal guy, but clearly millions of people find him hot AF and he is objectively handsome.

Second question is why are DLers damning him for aging so well when their biggest complaint about most hot men over 30 is that they're getting old.

[quote] Do they not realize there's no way to say "Brad Pitt isn't really that handsome" without sounding like a bitter jealous 350 pound basement dweller?

Nope. It's personal taste. Not every gay likes white blond pretty boys. It's not about being bitter, it's just bluntly stating one's taste. Celebrities are shoved down our throats as the "sexiest" and "most beautiful". It may not align to what an individual sees as most beautiful. I think you're just a fangirl because who cares if others on here don't find him all that? Most of the Brad threads are frau bait rather than gays just like with the Leo and Johnny threads.

[quote] because he has yellow skin

Explain this please.

He's a golden god, R58. Golden frau god.

[quote] He's a golden god, R58. Golden frau god.

What does that have to do with “yellow skin”?

[quote] Are you color blind??

I can see Brad being metaphorically a “golden god” by being radiant and favored. I’m asking what he and that has to do with “yellow skin”.

You mean he was a lush from an early age ?!

Brad was absolutely stunning in the 90’s. . He literally glowed

R62, see R66. It's called figurative speech.

Chris Evans was used in a remake of those photos.

I do believe Brad Pitt is more active in his brand than others. The hair matching, stylist changes, and controlled press require attention to detail and a lot of charisma. I’m telling you; it’s that lower lip and the dimples that make spice flow.

He was gorgeous and, I agree in retrospect, I think he looked the best in Seven and A River Runs Through It. He still looks great for a 58 yr old. I never could connect with Depp, Cruise who even Keanu. Brad was somehow more relatable I guess.

R55 sounds like he's talking about cattle.

He also looked really great in Meet Joe Black.

Brad went out of his way to not look so good in certain movies including Benjamin button. I wonder if he regrets that during his prime

I don't think Brad regrets anything, except marrying the vampire.

When he was young his cum tasted like nectar from the gods.

R14 Brad literally never didnshit for a role. He categorically pretended to have a girlfriend to get out of gays ex cos he straight lmfao

As others noted, he'd one of the few true "movie stars" out there, now that George Clooney is off doing whatever he's doing, Affleck is a hot mess and Matt Damon is just annoying.

That said, I don't think he'd be as popular as he is if he stayed married to Jolie and continued to be Mr. & Mrs Smug World Ambassadors. I don't think anyone would have patience for their bullshit in a COVID/Trump-filled world. As it is, being brought low made him more human & lovable to the general public, while it exposed Jolie as the phony we always assumed she was

He has a generic face. He reminds me of a lot of the surfer dudes I knew in the sixties. He is also pretty dumb.

He forges strategic alliances with skinny, ambitious, photogenic, big-name women — Paltrow, Aniston, Jolie, and I’m sure I’m missing some — and is willing to stand with them and smile vacantly at any number of cameras in order to afford his flights to his French chateaux, Jolie’s elephant preserve in Cambodia, and the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans where his post-Katrina housing project is falling into ruin. The guy knows there’s room for one It Boy at a time and he’s workin’ it while it lasts.

He's only good when he plays one-dimensional physical embodiments of perfection like in Troy, Fight Club and Snatch. Or a redneck like in Twelve Monkeys and California. He has no nuance or ability to transform as an actor.

Because he actually has a very nice erect penis, as evidenced in those Playgirl shots.

I have read, however, that said penis has herpes.
