    eh...first off, i'm not a baseball fan. Football, rugby, basketball, real men's sports are my kind of thing. So, i'm not feeling it. Secondly, i'm disappointed in Brad Pitt. Is this supposed to be his Jerry McGuire? Is he going to be in a shower scene getting gay with a beefy, manly bodied Cubba?

    I'm calling it. This is Pitt's downfall in quality movies.

    You seem like the type to be a fan of men's mud wrestling.

    I know. Don't worry, I don't judge you. This board in general is pretty open to people with your insecurities.

    Read the book a few years ago. Looking forward to seeing Brad Pitt play Beane.

    it's one of those weekends... to watch a well rated movie (Moneyball) or a kick ass action movie with sour reviews (Killer Elite)

    right now leaning towards Killer Elite

    Pitt is getting a lot of good review on this one. Definitely will check it out just because of the baseball theme. Hope it's good.

    How about David Nuño (<a href="http://bbs.clutchfans.net/member.php?u=127">Puff</a> on the board) interviewing the stars of the film...

    Way to go homophobe.
    Anyways, I really want to see this movie. Sports movies are my passion.

    Saw the movie like a month ago, I'd definitely see it again. Everyone knows they didn't win the world series, but that doesn't change how I felt about the movie. There were also a couple of scenes with trade negotiations that made me think "Is this what Morey does all day?" Lol.

    I liked it when Jonah Hill weighed more. He was way more funnier. Still have not gotten around to reading that book.

    Dang, Nuno is big time now.

    Who would have thought he would be interviewing Brad Pitt?

    Congrats!

    I really want to see this. But I'll probably have to wait till dvd since none of my girlfriends will want to go.

    Congratulations to Brad Pitt. He now has just 2 degrees of separation between himself and me.
