Brad’s Softbank Commercials
Remember back in Prague, when Angelina Jolie had a bit of down time, Brad was filming a commercial for Softbank? Well, here are the two spots that he did. Softbank is a Japanese cell phone company.
The first one:
And the second one:
I love that the Internet allows us to be able to see foreign commercials that we might not otherwise get to see at all!
Edit - Apparently YouTube has pulled all Softbank commercials due to copyright issues. If they come back up, I will re-post them.

It’s no longer available, I guess, I was late, just got home from work. I heard Brad & Ange are very famous in Japan, that’s the reason why they made them appear in their commercials. I will try Shiseido next time.

This ad seems to have been pulled from everywhere and it may be because they are being accused of false advertising. Shame really as I wanted to know why in one seen Brad is flinging the phone away.

Try JJ’s site if you can still watch it. Somebody posted a link from the comments a few weeks back. Anyway, my kababayans, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo will be at the same meeting with Brad and Angie on Wednesday at D.C. for Clinton’s Initiative meeting. Gloria will be one of the panelists. Angie will be there on global education and Brad will be on the topic of environment, climate change, etc. Thanks Sherry.

Thanks for the news, Lucy. It’s so great that people are taking Angelina (for a long time now) & Brad seriously. I read that while Brad was visiting the Washington Post as research for his movie “State of Play,” Angelina had a meeting with Colin Powell and then Condoleeza Rice about the refugee situation in Syria & Iraq. Wow, these two are so good at multi-tasking.
V MAG: Only half the magazine article is online - but it’s better than nothing. 2-page article, 10 pages of gorgeous photos. 2 Borders sold out, got the one with Brad in a tuxedo at Barnes & Nobel (last one, and none of the other 3 covers), Eastern Newstand also sold them.
I’ve used Shiseido since the 1980s - very good products.

I come to this site quite frequently, as I am a fan of Brad Pitt. I am neither a fan of Jennifer Aniston nor of Angelina Jolie, which does not mean I hate them either. I am just not really interested in them.
But what really annoys me is this tendency here to glorify Angelina Jolie and to bash Jennifer Aniston, make fun of her, ridicule her and to tell her to “move on”. Remember, this is the same person that Brad Pitt (who I assume all of you love) was in love with for seven years (he still said that lots of little Jens would be his dream in October 2004), and only recently stated that he feels a deep friendship for her. Remember when the hatred becomes too much, that you are bashing a close friend of Brad´s. I would really enjoy this site so much more if there wasn´t so much hatred and contempt towards Jennifer Aniston. What on earth has she done towards anyone except having been left by her husband? Who actually said she didn´t want to have children except the tabloids? My guess is that they tried (still throughout 2004) and it didn´t work out, and then Brad got interested in Angelina Jolie and mentally left the marriage before they could start thinking about adoption.
Again, I am not a fan of either woman, but I´d appreciate a bit more respect for a close friend of Brad´s. If she is so terrible, would he have fallen in love with her? Would he still have a deep friendship with her that (in his words) cannot be erased?
You can´t erase someone´s past, and I don´t think Brad would want that either. He obviously has a lot of respect and feelings still for his former wife, and would probably be quite shocked if he were to come to this site and read some of the comments by his fans.

Gisele,
I’m a huge fan of Brad and Angelina as a couple. I’ve never felt the need to bash Jennifer Aniston as a result of my support for “Brangelina.”
I’m surprised that you say that posters on this site show hatred and contempt as I have found everyone to be very friendly and supportive. (I rarely hear mention of JA).
I’m also surprised that you say you are not a fan of either Angelina or Jen as your comments tend to reveal your greater support of Jen over Angelina. That is ok, I just wonder though why you would want to visit a site that is so clearly supportive of Brad and Angie as a couple.
I think most of us here just really love the Jolie-Pitt Clan and wish them the absolute best. We are not concerned with “bashing Jen” as she is irrelevant to the Jolie-Pitt family. I truly believe that the people who frequent this site know that Jen is part of the past and Angelina is the present and future. We wish Jen well but don’t feel the need to discuss her.
If you want to discuss how great you think Jen is, I believe she has several Fan Websites where you can post to your heart’s content. You implied that you are not “enjoying this site” as it stands so I invite you to move on. Clearly, people here love Angelina and may as you state “glorify” her. But why not? She ’s quite a person.
Again, if this site isn’t doing it for you, do a google search and I’m sure you will find what you ARE looking for. Coming here though and posting what you did really makes you appear as an Anistonian in Brangelina clothing. Unfortunately, your clothing is as transparent as the Emperor’s.
Good Luck in your pursuit of Jennifer Aniston glorification sites.

Gisele darling :
First of all , Brad said he wanted little hers not little jens ( he was already thinking about Angelina ) , i mean you can´t say that and then split 2 months later , don´t you think ???
And Jennifer admitted that she knew the marriage was over 6 months before the announcement,the went the whole last year to counselling )
And i think he wish her well but he didn´t say they are friends ( he said that just to be nice and respectfull for all the memories together)
And please read all the article not the parts that you like :
He said you don´t kow how much days you have and you need your live to be everything you wanted .
He was not only talking about the lack of kids , said ” what i was doing with my life was nice but wasn´t doing it for me ”
Don´t believe that stupidity they split because of kids , they did for a lot of reasons , don´t believe in tabloids ( they are crap ),regarding the lie of the golden couple as well as the lie of the brangelina demise every week.

Gisele, you make some good points. I personally don’t hate Jennifer Aniston. She’s pretty in the California-beach-girl-next-door kind of way, and a number of people think she’s hot. She surprised me in Friends with Money, and she got good reviews for the Good Girl. I wish her happiness in her personal life and a successful career. And as an activist for the women’s movement since the 1970s, I absolutely support a woman’s right to choose when and if she’ll have a child.
But is pittwatch the only blog you visit? Believe me, pittwatch is like a tea party of genteel , civilized ladies compared to the unending blog comments on imdb (Angelina Jolie’s page, A Mighty Heart, etc.), popsugar, justjared, perezhilton, tmz, national ledger & its ilk, E!, extra, access Hollywood, People, Parade, newspaper gossip columns, etc., that spew vicious, vile, and venomous comments slandering Angelina. Occasionally, Angelina fans defending her honor give as good as what’s thrown at them and match fanistonistas in ugly, poisonous posts.
By far, Aniston fans’ posts out for Angelina’s blood outnumber the reverse. Sometimes, the posts cross over the line and attack the Jolie-Pitt kids. Soon after Shiloh’s birth when she was seen as the spawn of Satan - before she came to be seen as the Chosen One/Great White Hope, I saw the most horrific post about how Shiloh should be sexually violated in all possible ways. I was so horrified, I immediately closed that site. Now I wish I had copied it for proof. Not too long ago, someone posted that Angelina should be taken out and shot and that the poster would do it. This is one comparison Team Aniston wins – violent, scary and deeply angry posts.

I posted a (nice) response to Gisele’s comment which is under moderation for now.
I started with: “Gisele, you make some good points. I personally don’t hate Jennifer Aniston. She’s pretty in the California-beach-girl-next-door kind of way, and a number of people think she’s hot. She surprised me in Friends with Money, and she got good reviews for the Good Girl.

Believe me, pittwatch is like a tea party” and then I made a LONG list of all the blogs I’ve visited where every Aniston fan, with extremely rare exceptions, ferociously and continuously attack Angelina. I closed with a couple of examples targeting Shiloh & Angelina.

Gisele I too hate that hatred of Aniston and inever really had any affinity for her the characters she was famous for. I was not afan of friends in any way shape or form.
However I think those people who make nasty comments about her want to forget that there was someone before Angelina. I had a school friend who was in a long but great relationship with another class mate. They broke up and he went out with another girl, and they both moved on, happy for the time they had. This is what I feel about Brad and Jennifer.
Then again there seems to be so much hatred of many stars, go to any of the other celebrity sites and read the comments. They sicken me that a person can express that about anyone.
I hope Jennifer is happy and has people she can depend in her life.

Robert C. James
I am a Great Grandson of Jesse Woodson James and have written the movie screenplay of THE SECOND LEGEND OF JESSE WOODSON JAMES (c) 1993. The REAL Jesse lived to be 107 years age. He was still alive when I was born in 1951. The cover up by the James family was that Robert Ford killed Charlie Bigelow, and not Jesse James.
I believe Brad Pitt as Jesse James will not portray the character of the “hardened, civil war and one of Quantril’s guerrilla veteran” whom the REAL Jesse was. His close knit family life was full of strife and tension because he was a “Wanted Man, Dead or Alive!” After his freedom from his supposed death, he even sang at the funeral.
He was a desperado and traveled as far as Argentina, South America. He had over seventy five aliases he used during the 72 following years of his life. No, I beleive that another actor than Brat Pitt would have depicted the character of Jesse W. James to a rating of not R, but XXX.

Gisele, you said you are not a fan of Jeniffer nor Ange but in your comments, you are pro Jeniffer. You are the one who can’t move on, Brad did & for him The x is his x & nothing more. You are bashing Ange which is unacceptable. She didn’t do anything to break their marriage, Brad fall out of love to the X, you can’t forced someone to stay in marriage if there’s no love left. We don’t live with them, I think Brad & X ‘ problems are much deeper than that, who knows what, maybe, we will never know the answer. Brad clarified to everyone that Ange was not the reason why his marriage to the X ended up in divorce. As for your information, Brad & Ange are happy surrounded by 4 kids who loves & adores them. Brad has become more of a man, humanitarian,artistic & Ange brings out the best of him . He is a different person now when he met Ange, he is more compassionate & has purpose in life. I’m very proud of Brad & Ange, they are a match in heaven. I do believe God do make wonders. More power to Brad & Ange, for your information, they will be rubbing elbows with known govt. officials tomorrow, check it out, you may clear your mind why we love Ange so much & Brad as well.

There is no more glorification of and gushing over Angelina here, than there is of Jennifer Aniston by her fans on JA sites, and even on Angelina’s sites (imdb). This is an unabashedly pro-Angelina/Brad site so gushing is to be expected. Even as fans, there’s a variety and range here. Some think Angelina is absolutely perfect and can do no wrong. I don’t consider Angelina perfect, because I know she’s human, has made mistakes and will make more, and I love her all the more for it. I became a fan first because of who she was/is: typical wild child, a strong, daring, rebellious woman with an adventurous independent streak who danced to a different drummer no matter how much society disapproved of her. Angelina captured my heart when she adopted Maddox, and became a perfect mother to him. I bonded even more with Angelina when I learned of her work with the U.N. and her philanthropy (donating 1/3 of her earnings).
Time, Newsweek, and others have called her St. Angelina, savior of the world, or compared her with Mother Teresa. Angelina Jolie has never called herself any of that. In my observation, Angelina is one of the most humble and respectful celebrities around. She hasn’t just lent her name & face to the UN, she does the dirty work (literally getting down into the dirt) traveling on over 30 missions to hard and dangerous locations and insistent on being treated like the aid workers, not as a celebrity; and doing the hard work of research, lobbying, and media work. Angelina Jolie has legions of admirers for what she does, and not just for how she looks (although she’s spectacular in that department too).
Pittwatch is not a neutral blog – it’s positively pro-Angelina & Brad. That’s why I’m here. I’m tired of all the Angelina critics, and this is my haven. (BTW, why is it that Angelina is bashed 99% compared with bashing Brad 1%? Is it that old-fashioned sexism of women against women?)

i watched a Video about the dog. Some woman was walking on the film lot with the puppy. She then knocked on Brad’s trailer and he came out and got into a car. A reporter greeted him and he said hi back. Then someone in the background made a joke about his latest addition “Lenny” and Brad getting into the car gave the guy a “huh… wha…?” look. Lol

Gisele, I don’t understand the relation between Brad’s commercial and JA. I am really tired this whole Brad&Angelina&JA issue. When will this end? Also, I don’t want to learn anything about her because I don’t care her. Please, if you want to talk about JA, you can go her site because I come this site to read and discuss Jolie-Pitt not JA.

I am not going to get into any arguments with anyone. Ann, if your opinion is that I am an Aniston fan in disguise, please believe that, but I have to say you just proved what I was trying to say. Your last two sentences “Unfortunately, your clothing is as transparent as the Emperor’s. Good Luck in your pursuit of Jennifer Aniston glorification sites” say it all. I don´t understand why you got so angry.
I will certainly continue to enjoy this site for all the nice pictures and info (thank you, Sherry!).
Alexia - you seem to know exactly what goes on inside Brad´s head. Well, I don´t. But I know for sure that he said “little Jens” and not “little hers”. I was surprised about this, too, because they split so soon after. But what the heck! I don´t actually care. But please accept the fact that he had a life before Angelina, and had also been in love with someone else before! (as dapyro also stated)
ligaya, thanks for your comments. I don´t really have the time to check out the other sites you mentioned, but have been there once or twice. I made a point at looking through some of the comments, and have to agree that this site here is a tea party compared to these comments! They seem to be more anti-Aniston than anti-Jolie, though, but who cares. I can´t believe that people have nothing better to do than spread so much hatred, and this is why I posted my original comment in the first place. And I certainly didn´t mean to insult anybody; I realize that most people here are very friendly and peaceful. But people like Cheryl or xmargarinx can´t even stand it if someone dares to ask why Brad´s former wife gets bashed so much. Is that already an insult to “Brangelina”? I don´t think so.
Enough on all that. Brad Pitt seems a happy man, his children are adorable, and he seems to be in a good relationship. I couldn´t care less about Jennifer Aniston or Angelina Jolie, which as I said before does not mean I have anything against them.
I wish everyone only the best!!
