If you saw Moneyball this weekend, perhaps you walked out of the theater thinking, Wow, that Brad Pitt really is a charming and handsome movie star. Or maybe instead you thought, Huh, Brad Pitt eats a lot in movies. The man does not stop feeding. (Except to throw a chair across the locker room, and then: more food.) Popcorn, Twinkies, Christmas cookies, a cheeseburger — it all ends up in Brad Pitt’s perfect mouth. When Terry Gross asked him about this exact phenomenon, Pitt ascribed the tic to the intensity of the real life Billy Beane, but Ocean’s Eleven aficionados will remember that Brad is chowing down in almost every scene of that movie, too. In fact, he eats in a lot of his movies. And so to prove the Brad Pitt Eating in Movies Theory, Vulture put together a list of every single item of food that Pitt has ever eaten in a movie, ever. Click through for the definitive and basically nutrition-less list.

Brad Pitt has Melissa Etheridge to thank when it comes to helping land one of his early big screen roles.

Melissa stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Tuesday, where the rocker revealed that she helped school the leading man in the fine art of fly-fishing back in the early ‘90s.

“I love to fish, I grew up in the Midwest and loved to fish, totally a huge fishing and fly-fishing [fan],” Melissa said during the show’s “Three Things You Don’t Know About…” segment.

“I taught Brad Pitt how to fly-fish in my swimming pool,” she continued. “Back when he had to audition. He was up for the part in ‘A River Runs Through It.’ So, he had to learn how to fly-fish. So there we are in Hollywood, in my pool and I’m teaching him how to do it.”

“How’d he do?” Kit asked.

“Well, he got the part. He did great,” Melissa said with a smile.

The former fly-fishing pals have lost touch in recent years, but it appears Brad still holds a special place in Melissa’s heart.

“He’s a wonderful guy,” she said of the leading man. “I haven’t seen him in years. Love you Brad, wherever you are.”

FYI. Working hard on BPM, it just takes a lot of time and time is not on my side Thanks for understanding. Will add more later today.

Like old buddies reuniting for a happy hour at the corner bar, Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill enter the room already gabbing and laughing.

He’s got his back: Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill star in Moneyball. It’s the true-life story of Billy Beane, the man who revolutionized the way professional baseball players are evaluated.

What could the model-handsome middle-aged half of the celebrity beast known as Brangelina be discussing so intently with the Gen-Y whiz kid who was Russell Brand’s reluctant drug mule in Get Him to the Greek?

Maybe how their new film, Moneyball, which opens today, puts a whole new backroom-negotiating spin on the baseball genre by doing with spreadsheets what sexy Bull Durham did with bedsheets?

Pitt tells MTV News it was studio’s call to tap new director Bennett Miller, who proved to be right man for the sports flick.

Steven Soderbergh had nothing if not grand ambitions for his take on “Moneyball.”

“I hope it sets a new standard,” he told MTV News in the spring of 2009. “Hopefully, anybody who makes a sports movie from now on is going to have to grapple with this.”

Soderbergh’s plan for the adaptation of Michael Lewis’ best-selling book about the 2002 Oakland A’s included re-creating the bowels of Oakland Coliseum and casting ballplayers and coaches to play their big-screen counterparts. The filmmaker also proposed, most ambitiously (and probably a bit bizarrely), the use of an Oracle-like persona, based on the legendary statistician Bill James, presented as an animated character and commissioned with narrating the action.
