Angelina Jolie vs. Oliver Reed

April 24, 2006

VS.

Finally, it is on, a well overdue fight between a superstar from the 70’s and a modern day superstar. Who is the better? (in your mind) We fight with quotes, in true Butch blogging style

Jolie, 30, who is a United Nations goodwill ambassador, has been shielded from the Namibian natives by heavy security at a secluded beach resort near Walvis Bay Postchronicle

Angelina Jolie. What else can I say? A ridiculous person, paid ridiculous amounts of money, with ludicrous (yet honourable if unrealistic) ambitions to change the world, one child at a time.

What is it with A list actors and being so damn moral? Look at Tom Cruise for chrissake. No one is willing to break the mould anymore, hence the lack of modern day Jack Nicholson’s. Colin Farrell seems to be coming along all right for a while, but now he is another actor.

Which brings me to my next point

Oliver Reed

“Reed had a career of more than 30 years, but from the early 1970s he had acquired a reputation for bad behaviour off the screen - heavy drinking and brawling in pubs and during public appearances.” From BBC

Listen to this

He was famous for his excessive drinking, and was once forced to leave the set of a television discussion programme after arriving drunk and attempting to kiss feminist writer Kate Millett. from Here

I don’t encourage that type of behaviour, and Oliver Reed was far from an incredible actor. But dammit, he had charisma; he was an individual, nothing like the celebrities we are stuck with now
