Angelina Jolie Watch

We’ve got some videos from around the net of the Angelina baby watch frenzy. Everyone is consumed.

Angelina Jolie has recorded a Public Service Announcement to bring awareness to Friday’s World Refugee Day.

“They have survived war, they have survived displacement, they have survived rape, they have survived hunger and disease,” Angelina says during the spot. “For those who have survived and for those who did not, we are thinking of you on this day.”

The dialouge is accompanied by photos of refugees around the world. An article penned by Angelina will appear in U.S. papers on Friday as part of the Word Refugee Day activities.

Other activities include a replica of a Darfur Village in London’s Trafalgar Square. Rome’s Colosseum will be lit with the refugee agency’s logo.

For more information got the UNHCR website.

Angie’s really doing her bit for Wanted. This time our sinewy action star sat down with MTV to talk about why she’s took the physical role and her thoughts on a possible role in Sin City 2. If included some bits of the interview but you’ll need to click on clip to hear the entire thing.

MTV: You’ve done your share of action films. Why another one?

Jolie: I was itching to do something that was physical, because I had done some emotional films and I had been at home with the kids. I didn’t know that there was anything original out there [until] I came across this script. One, it has a great story. A lot of action movies are kind of lacking in that. It’s got a dark sense of humor and it’s wild, and the stunts — I knew that they were going to be done in an original way. I knew that the director [Timur Bekmambetov] would do this movie in a way that would make it different than any other action movie.

MTV: This is your first action flick since “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.” I would think it’s a little different rolling around with James McAvoy than with Brad?

Jolie: Well, you know Brad was … [Laughs.] I’ll always prefer rolling around on the floor with him than any other man. You know, in general. [Laughs.]

MTV: You are passing the torch.

Jolie: Passing the torch to James.

MTV: Since you’re in your elder years, right? All the way in your early 30s.

Jolie: [Laughs.] Yeah, that’s right.

MTV: Do you imagine such physical roles will always be a part of your career?

Jolie: I think there’s always going to be a side of me … you know, as long as I can. Harrison [Ford] is doing it, and he’s doing it well. It looks like I’ve got some more time.

She also added that she’s curios that her name was being bandied about for Sin City 2 but wasn’t sure it would be as original at the first. I think she’d be outstanding the production but if it doesn’t float her boat I understand her wanting to pass Only time will tell.

Oh this is loads of fun. We’ve got a over 7 minutes of Wanted. We’ve seen bits of this scene before but it’s super exciting to see it all pieced together. Thanks to Randi for picking this one up.

This trailer is very similar to the very first Wanted trailer that was released. Only this time James McAvoy is instructed to shoot the wings off of fly instead of curving the bullet.

This is more from McAvoy’s perspective. You’ll remember that the original trailer was mostly narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Finally we’ve got an actual clip. Enjoy!!!

This is a longer look at the Changeling. I cannot wait until this hits theaters. According to IMBD, the movie will debut in US theaters on November 7th. That date sound a long way out to me. Cannes debuts usually premier in theaters in in the summer or(at the latest) the early fall. More terrific reviews are pouring in for Angelina.

From the UK’s Independent:

“Thanks to her media profile, Jolie cuts such an absurd figure it is easy to forget how accomplished she can be. This is a performance of subtlety and power.” (Not sure how I feel about the absurd part. The writer seems to equate her personality with her media persona. Still it’s a good review) .

We’ve got more from Angelina and Brad’s dinner date the other night. I love this video. It shows Brad and Angie being extra loving and Brad’s jokingly shooing the paps away.

I’m hearing rumblings that the movie’s name has been changed to The Exchange. I haven’t had time to verify that but that’s how this AP video from today’s photocall has it listed  previously had it listed as that.  It may be plausible. This video gives us our first glimpse of Angelina doing her thing in the movie. (At least it’s new to me). Angelina says some nice things about Eastwood. Enjoy.

We knew that Angelina and Brad dined with Clinton Eastwood last night. We’ve also learned that Mick Jagger at six other people joined the power couple. The party of eight dined at Tetou Restaurant in Golfe-Juan, France on Monday evening. Tetou is a trendy spot, know for it’s celeb clientele and fabulous bouillabaisse.

It looks like Angelina’s Kung Fu Panda co-starts can’t keep their mouths. In addition to yesterday’s twins guffaw by Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman revealed Angelina’s due date in a separate conversation with Today’s Natalie Morales. Due dates are dicey and who knows if Dustin even got it right. Still, Angelina did confirm she’s a few months off in her Today interview.

I wonder how long the family plans to stay in France and if Angelina will actually give birth in a more remote location like she did the last time. Angie has said that she gets the giggles with she’s pregnant. Looks like that that’s true. Check out the snippet. It’s lots of fun.

Angie was spotted yesterday looking lovely in yellow outside of Marino Ristorante in Beverly Hills. I do love her in bright colors. According to TMZ, she spent five hours in the restaurant. Either she was extremely hungry or it was a business meeting. See the video below

PS Angelina’s dress is Catherine Malandrino and her bag is Cooper from Anya Hindmarch’s collection.

Angelina Jolie was already an international star at 16-years-old. Check her out in Antonello Venditti’s remake of Crowded House’s Don’t Dream It’s Over. The Italian version is called Alta Marea. According to Babel Fish it means high tide.

I forgot to mention this but the forum was co-sponsored by Angie’s group Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. She founded the group with Gene Speerling last year as part of the 2007 Clinton Initiative. In this video from Tuesday’s conference, she’s talks about how transformative education can be to a child of conflict.

To read additional facts about children of conflict click below. I am eternally grateful to Angelina for her continued education on this subject. (more…)

Honestly, I was a bit leery about posting this shoot and the accompanying video. Turns out it’s not that bad. Basically what we have is a 16-year-old Angie doing some modeling and talking with photogs about her hobbies and interest. (We learn about her early fascination with weaponry.) Granted I wouldn’t let my 16-year-old do any of the shots but she’s certainly has nothing to regret. (I doubt our Angie has many of those.) You probably couldn’t talk her out of very much even at that age. She’s fully clothed and looks great.

She’s hasn’t changed all that much. We see the beginnings of the strong woman that we’ve come to love.

Note: Apparently she’s modeling a gold bikini is the video
