Mmm...I guess I'm the only one who thinks Brad seems pretty smart from reading his interviews. Whatever then!

I'll chime in with others to say, you're not the only one. I think he's pretty smart actually.

How many of us 'regular people' are geniuses anyway?

I think he's of normal intelligence. No genius, but not a moron.

However, I'm not all that interested in his brain...

His architectural sense is really interesting so I figure he can't be a complete idiot. His California house is stunning, if rather child unfriendly (sharp edges and hard surfaces galore).

I think he's smarter than he appears just because I think PR and career-wise, he almost always makes the right move. You might get famous on a fluke, but I don't think you stay on the A-list for 15 years without knowing what you're doing. And even the way Angelina takes the brunt of abuse from the tabloids and much of the online world while Brad emerges largely unscathed, I think speaks to how clever he is at managing his image.

Now this is absolutely true. He's survived 15 years on A-list, as well as three high profile romances with famous women (Paltrow, Aniston, Jolie). Now, part of that is the media is much more forgiving of men than women, but it helps that he hasn't put his foot in his mouth too many times. His management is excellent and he's pretty astute, too. The worst thing you ever heard about Pitt (prior to the Team Jen stuff) was that he liked pot and smelled funky.

It really showed that he was right when he said he is the Zen master at tabloids and paps stuff. It's easily obvious from how Aniston handled her PR.

Brad isn't the one to be cheated on. He divorced and quickly moved on with another woman. It's easy not to whine when you have nothing to whine about. And he didn't have to answer any of "How could you" questions when those questions wered directed at Angelina.

That says a lot about him and how he handles his press. Even now i see more post on Brad take Shiloh and i will marry you or take Shiloh and go back to Jen. It's like people forget he was the married one not Angie.

Brad in Troy? Good gawd almighty!!!!!! I picked up the director's cut of it last week, but have yet to watch it. The theatrical release may have not have been the greatest movie, but the man buffet made it worth the price of admission.

Brad did look good in Troy, damn good. But I will admit that I didn't even pay attention to him in the movie until Eric Bana's Hector died. Before that it was all about Bana.

I like him with Angie and the kids but by himself he does nothing for me. Eh.

So hot.

ETA: Not hot, but cute - Brad's mini-me.
