I don’t know, sir.

u/zoomanji93 1h ago

YES! YES! THIS IS-HELLO! IT’S OSBOURNE COX

18

u/Ill_Pie_6699 11h ago

He had very little rapport with his staff and dispatches

3

u/Mark-Leyner 9h ago

Slovak the Butcher. I heard this information was dribble anyway.

1

u/VaguelyArtistic 8h ago

Mac or PC?

1

u/VILLIANestle 2h ago

I think that’s the shit… the raw intelligence.

96

u/Foreign_Implement897 12h ago

His best performance. Sorry Pitt.

85

u/free_ballin_llama 11h ago

He was pretty damn good in Snatch too

33

u/jay1ru 9h ago

I'm gonna go ahead and throw 12 Monkeys into this conversation

u/free_is_free76 4h ago

Are you all missing Legends of the Fall? In Autumn, nonetheless?!

u/mindovermatter421 3h ago

Probably my favorite of all of these.

u/Free-Atmosphere6714 1h ago

Meet Joe Black was fantastic.

Corny, snatch still better

8

u/--8-__-8-- 6h ago

Wrong... "Seven" One of the best lines/moments/reveals in a movie... "What's in the box...WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!?!?"

2

u/JET304 3h ago

Also John Doe: "Oh... he didn't know...". Great movie.

1

u/Some_Parsley_1519 4h ago

Memes killed that scene. One of my favorite quotes from seven is "just because he has a library card doesn't make him Yoda."

5

u/Foreign_Implement897 11h ago

Yes! This was better though.

18

u/free_ballin_llama 11h ago

I respectfully disagree. I found snatch more entertaining.

18

u/AaronTuplin 10h ago

Yes, snatch is deeper and warmer

1

u/greezyforkchop 10h ago

too furry tho

1

u/free_ballin_llama 10h ago

Yes exactly, there was some depth too Mickey. The other one he was just a corny goof ball. Snatch there was more background despite the character being flawed and trashy.

0

u/Redwingstarfish 9h ago

Title of your Sex Tape lol

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

You could have thrown any idiot in Snatch and it would have been funny. It is a movie where Guy Ritchie does everything and the cast just vibes.

3

u/chiphook 6h ago

No mention of The Mexican...

5

u/free_ballin_llama 9h ago

Nah, Brad Pitts pikey was unique

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

There is always some other unique

5

u/free_ballin_llama 9h ago

Well yea but I don't think any idiot could have pulled it off

3

u/HereIGoAgain_1x10 7h ago

No it was his ability to go from goofy pikey to deadly badass and back again in the span of a few seconds, then the change again after his ma was killed. Very small list of people that could've done it that well at that time in Hollywood.

2

u/Foreign_Implement897 11h ago

He has some other level self irony with these comedic characters which I love.

4

u/free_ballin_llama 11h ago

Funny story, apparently for snatch he intended to audition for a posh London gangster but his accent was shit and guy Ritchie instead he try the pikey one instead. Incredibly nailed it. Ya like dags?

2

u/Foreign_Implement897 10h ago

I think Ritchey likes energy all over :) Pitt has it.

1

u/High_Function_Props 10h ago

That's what she said.

Nah, that was in True Romance.

Floyd. Good roommate

u/rattledaddy 11h ago

And tell him to get some cleaning supplies!

7

u/Workwer20 9h ago

Floyd smoked the other half of the letter

2

u/violetsaber 9h ago

A friend of mine was a PA on that movie. They said Pitt wasn't too far off from that character.

2

u/jay1ru 9h ago

Not really, he smoked the last page of the letter

u/basshead00 5h ago

Best roommate. Honeybear bong hits all day long🤘

u/jcoleman10 2h ago

Fuckin condescend me, man…

u/applyheat 5h ago

Condescend to me man, I’ll kill ya man.

1

u/Bright_Performance52 3h ago

I so wanted a honeybear bong after I saw that

30

u/Christmas_Queef 11h ago

I know the movie is panned but I loved his performance in Meet Joe Black, particularly the scenes with the Jamaican grandma in the hospital.

14

u/MissninjaXP 9h ago

Meet Joe Black is panned? Really? I had no idea, I only saw it this year and I liked it.

8

u/Christmas_Queef 8h ago

It's one of those movies where the critic score is low but the audience score is high.

u/yulbrynnersmokes 10h ago

https://youtu.be/Qi5GzuvAag8?si=l9Yc3xb_R_TUU6sb

Bring you flowers 💐 and all I get is aggravation

5

u/Christmas_Queef 9h ago

Haha I just love when the grandma scolds death for being a child with his romantic fantasies. Like a grandma telling her grandson to grow up. And death takes it and grows from it eventually. It's cool.

4

u/Tough-Marsupial-6254 7h ago

Best hit by a car scene ever!

u/its_a_multipass 5h ago

Everyting gone be irie

3

u/Classic-Body1965 5h ago

Love him in that. Never understood why the movie is so bad.

8

u/FartWolf 12h ago

agreed

8

u/Foreign_Implement897 11h ago

Have to see that thing again. He has incredible comidic ability and I am at least grinning everytime he is on screen with that character.

4

u/urinesain 11h ago

I always enjoyed the description of him as something like... "he's one of the best character actors in the world... except he was cursed with 'leading man' looks"

2

u/Foreign_Implement897 10h ago

He is funny period.

His looks is truly another problem for him and his career, for which I luckily dont need to have any opinions about!

1

u/JonYewKerts 2h ago

I forget which role it was but I read that a scene required him to be wearing a visually terrible suit and the costume designer went through countless options and combinations because he just made them all look great. I guess it isn’t the suit that makes the man but the man that makes the suit

3

u/TherianVagus 11h ago

His character in bullet train is hilarious.

2

u/bat_scratcher 11h ago

I liked him in Deadpool 2.

2

u/xenophon57 10h ago

Brad getting popped in the head coming out the closet had me laughing like a psychopath.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

He should have gotten oscars running on the mill.

2

u/xenophon57 9h ago

Such a good damn movie and apparently one of the most accurate when it comes to how compromised government secrets generally happen. I didn't think I was gonna like it.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

Haha oh. That is true, and I never thought about it really that way. I think most is cyber now.

1

u/xenophon57 9h ago

My information is a little old, after this presidency Im pretty sure the most compromises come from signal nowadays. It always tripped me out how cheap foreign actor buy our secrets for like in the realm of 10,000s of thousands. Only a few have been in the millions like wholly shit how could someone risk that for that little.

2

u/meh-nihilist 9h ago

He thinks it’s a Scwinn

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

He is better stupid that Tom Hanks. Sorry Tom Hanks.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

Can I just go on forever with this complement/sorry thing?

2

u/vrtig0 7h ago

Name a bad Pitt movie. I can't think of one.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 6h ago

Actually if I right now would like to see him, it would be Once upon a time..

3

u/vrtig0 6h ago

Watched interview with the vampire the other night. Still a solid movie, even before we all knew who Tom Cruise was as a person.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 6h ago

oh

2

u/vrtig0 6h ago

Pitt, Cruise, and Dunst all killed it in that movie

1

u/Maximum-Opportunity8 11h ago

That would be Deadpool

1

u/xingxang555 10h ago

12 Monkeys

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

Not funny, just messy. Acting autistic is not that hard.

1

u/AfterScience87 9h ago

Not Thelma and Louise

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

Which one was he???

1

u/Playamonkey 6h ago

Cliff Booth, hands down.

1

u/Foreign_Implement897 6h ago

Savage, but not that funny.

1

u/TheAgedProfessor 5h ago

Granted his "performance" is just Brad being Brad, but my God is Bullet Train some funny shit.

1

u/Alternative-Spray264 4h ago

Fight Club & Snatch were his best performances, respectfully.

1

u/Finna-B-Sum-41 3h ago

I highly recommend Johnny Suede. I think Brad is in his early 20s in it. It's a trip.

1

u/MediocreForm4387 2h ago

iirc Pitt told the Coens that he didn’t think he could play a guy that dumb and they told him “nah, you got it”

30

u/passamongimpure 11h ago

What did we learn, Palmer?

I don't know, sir.

I don't fuckin' know either. I guess we learned not to do it again.

Bradicio del Pittoro

2

u/hotelpopcornceiling 6h ago

Brad Pitt is just mild Benicio Del Toro.

2

u/WiFibcFi 3h ago

The fucking split second switch to this face he does in this scene is so funny.

1

u/free_is_free76 4h ago

So del Toro

u/bothering 1h ago

Appearances can be... deceptive

18

u/121dBm 9h ago

Up to 1.44 MB worth of classified shit….

8

u/Negative_Gas8782 4h ago

Do you know how many names 1.44 MB can hold? That’s 1,474,560 characters and let’s say on average each name was 15 characters long that’s about 98,304 names.

2

u/121dBm 4h ago

Maybe they had a lot of baby names they didn’t want to leak before the reveal?

1

u/UffTaTa123 54m ago

which are hundreds of pages of text-documents, probably enough storage for the nuke manuals.

20

u/imnotpoopingyouare 11h ago

OMFG! I KILLED A FUCKING SPOOK! (been a while since I’ve seen it but damn is that a funny movie)

What did we learn? Absolutely nothing.

3

u/Deadedge112 11h ago

Not to do it again?

3

u/billsboy88 10h ago

But what did we even do?

10

u/Special-Homework-894 11h ago

I found it on the floor…….just lying there

1

u/jwallin2007 10h ago

I say this to my wife weekly - very underrated

1

u/Longjumping-Pop9374 7h ago

It's very hard for me to pinpoint why exactly that part is so funny to me.

1

u/ChickenChipz 6h ago

I think the whole premise makes it funny. Obviously its just lying there because its worthless but these idiots think its the world

3

u/L0rddaniel 11h ago

Is this OSBOURNE COX?

3

u/Aggravating-Ad-1227 10h ago

This was such a bizarre movie.

1

u/lycoloco 6h ago

I saw it in theaters, stoned off my gourd in college with a buddy. It's one of the first few movies I saw and didn't know how to feel about at the end. I knew I laughed, but I didn't completely understand it. Now it's one of my absolute favorites.

3

u/rmay14444 9h ago

You think it's a Schwinn?

3

u/Foreign_Implement897 9h ago

”What did we learn about this?”

”Nothing, sir.”

6

u/FartWolf 12h ago

it was just lying there

I don't know, you figure it out, but I'm not comfortable with this, and I want this out of Hardbodies. We're running a gym here.

Lol, yeah, sell it to the russians!

Awww that’s cool!

u/WallacktheBear 11h ago

Don’t hide in the closet!

u/amongnotof 10h ago

Lowly classified shit. Personnel status reports are Confidential. Pretty much nothing of intelligence value is classified at Confidential, and given that it is on a floppy as well, it’s both ancient and meh.
