....I went to see 'Benjamin Button' last night. It was actually a good film, imho. The special effects were not overdone, and the way they made Brad Pitt look old was excellent.

But of most note are the scenes where he is riding/fettling motorcycles, starting with an Indian (at least I assume it was an Indian because of the left hand throttle), then a Triumph, then an Enfield India.

PS. To get my macho image back on track, let me say that imho the best Pitt films have been '12 Monkeys' and 'Snatch'.

I remember hearing that Jesse James built Pitt a bike.

I remember hearing that he stopped for gas and filled the oil tank.

It's OK to have a Man crush Nick. It happens to a lot of guys. If you start downloading Liza Minelli and Judy Garland tunes
you may have to decide which fork in the road you want to take.

Well, come on guys...who doesn't think that Bradd Pitt is cute??

Can't believe I just said that.

Actually I'd be his friend in the hopes of getting friendly with his cast-off female friends.

Haha, they called it a moped.

Oh, and that looks like one of Zero Engineering's Samurai Choppers, which I always thought was an awesome bike (one of them was in Iron Man, too). At least the guy has good taste in bikes...

i wanna see this flick too. looks like a good premise and pitt doesn't bother me beyond him dumping my greek sweetie Jenn for the nut job. does she carry a vile of brad's blood around her neck now?

cool bike and helmet; i'm sure his personal assistant picked it all out for him.

cbr-eric · « **Reply #21 on:** January 10, 2009, 05:31:15 AM »

Weirdo...

It's ok, I didn't see it until last April (for class, nonetheless). It's even worse when you're in college and it's one of 3 required movies that every college kid is assigned (along with Anchorman and Wedding Crashers

, or The Notebook for the ladies) and everybody says, "what the hell? You haven't seen it yet? It came out 10 years ago!!!"

I have seen pics of Brad Pitt (posted in motorcycle forums, I'm not searching him out) on a confederate, a ducati and a few other bikes. I would say he has good taste (Angelina and Jennifer).

He isn't rockin' Prince's god awful 400a from Purple rain. LOL

Caaveman82 · « **Reply #31 on:** January 13, 2009, 12:42:21 PM »

A.) Prince happens to be my neighbor and has some sweet rides. Not my actual neighbor but his recording studio/home is like a mile from me and I pass it every day going to work. He has got some nice bikes and cars.

B.) Brad Pitt is another fevered ego that is making us pay a higher psychic price than we could ever imagine.

C.) He is wearing gardening gloves in that picture, I am pretty sure.

D.) Don't get me wrong, he is an above medicore actor, but he is a douche.

That concludes my rant, Thank you
