Pitt calls himself a GM of a formidable family

Japanese movie fans went gaga on Wednesday (November 9) as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie walked on red carpet before Pitts latest film Moneyballs Japan premier.Some 400 fans crowded at Tokyos International Forum convention hall to get their own glimpses of the one of the most famous couple in the world.Pitt has turned to the world of baseball economics for his latest movie Moneyball where he played Billy Beane, the real-life general manager of Major League Baseballs Oakland As, who is famed for reinventing the game by running a competitive team in a cost-effective way.When asked if he ever wanted to be a baseball manager, Pitt said hes already a general manager of a formidable family. Im general manager of my family... maybe thats representative of multiple talents, mass differences and formidable team, Pitt said.Golden Globe-winning Pitt, 44, and Oscar-winning Jolie, 33, have six children -- Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne -- three of whom are adopted.Pitt, whos also a film producer for the 2007 Academy Award winning The Departed, said he found similarities between managing baseball team and producing film as he acted Billy Beane.What I appreciate about him was the questioning of conventional thoughts, because sometimes we dont stop to think about why were doing things. Maybe what made sense a century ago doesnt make sense for us today? And just that tension and pressure of answering, trying to answer decisions on the day and its not that a far from the film business, Pitt said.The biographical sports drama was on the last slot of the top-10 at the North American box office for the weekend beginning on November 4, harnessing a total of $70.3 million since first released in September 2011 in a estimation by Reuters.The film with a budget of $47 million was adapted by Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin, the Oscar-winning screenwriter of The Social Network, from the Michael Lewis book Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game. Japanese fans said they were impressed with how the star couple really shine. They shine like stars as they always do in films. I think they look better in person, said 27-year-old housewife Mariko Kawabata. Some said they envy the couples conjugal tie.They look like they really get along as they are always together. I cant help being a little bit jealous, 26-year-old businessman Takayuki Matsumoto said.
