Kid Correspondents talk Kung Fu Panda on the red carpet
November 11, 2008 by Sherry
I love seeing and reading interviews of my favorite celebrities, but it was even better to see ET’s kid correspondent interviewing Angelina Jolie, Jack Black, and Dustin Hoffman on the red carpet at the DVD release on November 9th. She was such a little pro, and did an excellent job.
You could tell they enjoyed talking with her too. I think my favorite part was when Dustin Hoffman asked her how she got her job and she shrugged and said, “I don’t know!”
Another kid correspondent from The Insider then challenged each of the stars to a kung fu staring contest and even asked Angelina Jolie if she thinks she should win an Oscar for Changeling – talk about tough questions!
And finally, no kid correspondent, but Access Hollywood interviewed Angelina Jolie on the red carpet where they discuss the movie, the kids, and even Obama.
thank you sherry, but i can’t understand everything (my english is not so good!)
i forgot to share something with you: in a french interview, angie was asked about more adoptions… when the journalist asked her if they ‘ll adopt more kids, she smiled and said : we have to wait until the twins’ll be 6months old before baginning a new process…. than the journalist said: so in a fw months we’ll see a new jolie-pitt member? she laughed and said “i know, everybody think we are cr.ea.zy but it’s such a great adventure”
i was so happy when i heard this. unfortunatly, i can’t find a link to this interview….
Those kid interviewers were very professional. They asked really good questions and Angie was very kind in answering them. BTW. Has anyone read new newest story of Brad on OK! Magazine. It says that Brad had been seen going to the movies alone! What´s so weird about it? He has every right to go out by himself. And he deserved it. He sure watched over the children while Angie attended the KFP release. But it seems that every time one of this beautiful couple is seen in public the rags start writing negative things about their relationship. Maybe In Touch and Life & Style will write the similar articles this week. Thank God I can´t buy those rags here in Finland.
Kati – even if it’s true that he’s seeing movies alone, I agree that it’s not particularly weird. I prefer to see movies with at least one other person just because I tend to want to discuss it to death when it’s over, especially if it’s good. However, sometimes I want to see something that no one else does, and why should I sit around and wait for the DVD? The first time I saw a movie alone, I felt conspicuous, but I had such a good time that I didn’t care by the time it was over.
Plus, I remember an interview where Angelina even said that Brad is more of a movie buff than she is, and if I recall correctly she even confessed she’s been known to fall asleep while trying to watch movies with him. It makes sense.
And on top of all that, they have six kids now. Yes, they have help and I’m sure that they could go out to see a movie together if they wanted to, but for all we know, they prefer to use those opportunities to do things they’re obligated to do (like appearances), and spend time together at home with the kids rather than in a theater if it’s not something they both enjoy doing anyway.
He was at screening of TCCOBB there are photos, he looks so happy. It is definitly work that keep them in LA and think their whole time until Angie starts to shoot SALT is well planned!
Go to brangelina en espanol there you can see some photos and Angie inerview on Extra where she says she loves Brad!
nadia.Where can I find the link to those photos in which he is at the screening of TCCOBB?
It is on brangelina en espanol and on buzzphoto he was attending with david fincher and then they did question and answer promo interview.
he was having some problems while entering because he was a little late and then security did not recognize him and try to stop him and he said I am Brad Pitt i must come in so when the bodyguard realised him he apologised and let him go and on buzzphoto you can see him struggling to get in!
i have to agree with Dustin Hoffman’s question, how did that cute little girl got the job?
Back to KFP , quick – what do these have in common: KFP’s Po, the Passion of Christ, the Terminator’s John Connor, Star Wars’ Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, Matrix’ Neo (One spelled backwards), and Shiloh? They’re all the Chosen One (just kidding about Shiloh). In honor of KFP’s dvd release, Reelzchannel Dailies show had a segment comparing them all to the prophecy and destiny of the Chosen One – coming in all shapes and sizes, underdogs who become their own heroes by believing in themselves.
The Hollywood Reporter:
14 submitted for animation Oscar
‘WALL-E,’ ‘Madagascar’ sequel among contenders
Nov 10, 2008, 10:13 PM ET
Fourteen films have been submitted to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in hopes of securing one of the 3 nominations available in the best animated feature category.
The contenders are “Bolt,” “Delgo,” “Dragon Hunters,” “Fly Me to the Moon,” “Igor,” “KUNG FU PANDA,” “Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa,” “$9.99,” “The Sky Crawlers,” “Sword of the Stranger,” “The Tale of Despereaux,” “Waltz With Bashir” “WALL-E” and “Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who!”
Because there are at least 8 but fewer than 16 submissions, a maximum of 3 movies can share the spotlight when the Oscar nominations are announced Jan. 22.
Disney/Pixar’s “Wall-E” is widely considered the frontrunner to win the Oscar. Competition for the other 2 nominee slots will include such boxoffice hits as Blue Sky Studio’s “Horton,” a Fox release, and DreamWorks Animation’s “KUNG FU PANDA” and “Madagascar” sequel, which were released by Paramount.
UNDER MOD:
The Hollywood Reporter – KUNG FU PANDA submitted for consideration for animation Oscar . . .
following up on ligaya’s post.
I have seen most of the animations released and I think Wall-E will have tough competition with Kung fu panda.
Wall-E was that awww cute movie where there was no talking for half the movie but a display of wonderful animation and tones and pitch while Kung fu panda is one that was fun. Those two are the only ones with a chance of winning. The third slot won’t have a chance. My thoughts.
Okay, I like the boy interviewer better than the girl. The girl just asked questions (probably from ET) and then doesn’t look at them when they were answering the questions… THAT’S JUST RUDE!!!
But the boy did an excellent job!!!
THANKS SHERRY FOR THE UPDATE! iI REALLY ENJOY THE questions and answer esp. those kids and angie is sooh amazing!
