Courtney Love- “BRAD PITT HAD ME FIRED & RECAST IN ‘FIGHT CLUB’!!!!”

Mein Fuhrer.

Good for Brad, Cuntney is a murdering drugged-out whore who is a cancer on her daughter& society.

Die Cuntney Die!!!

Mein Fuhrer

r3 That's your own fault for choosing such a stupid thread title for your thread. You don't mention Love or Pitt in the title and then act pissy when someone creates a thread which actually does? Fuck off.

"but if you don’t get me, you kind of don’t get Kurt"

Translation: if you don't kiss my ass, I won't help you make money off my dead husband. Only I get to do that.

I’m sick of the Mein Fuhrer person. I searched to see if the thread existed already and nothing came up. I’m sorry but I didn’t make a duplicate on person. A lot different from the person who intentionally duplicates threads like a fucking weirdo b

On purpose*

R5 that is what I got from it.

Ha, ha, the thought of Courtney Love butthurt because she didn't get to play Marla Singer in Fight Club has me cackling! She was only adequate in The People vs. Larry Flynt and Helena Bonham Carter absolutely slayed as Marla.

R4. You fuck off bitch. Don't ever come at me that way. Why would a put non motherfucking factor's name in the title.

R6, I agree regarding the Mein Fuhrer person.

I'm just shocked she's even still alive.

R10 "Don't ever come at me that way"

How old are you? 12?

I started a thread about her Maron interview late last night. I noted how insufferable, scattered, obsessed with name-dropping she was. Notably, she said she's been in contact with Kanye and seems to have a lot of sympathy for him. She also went off on how she's from money and has a lot of Jewishness on one side of her family.

I must be the only person who's never seen Fight Club. No interest either.

R15 I saw it when it came out. I was 13 at the time. I thought it was so weird but cool.

As an adult I read the book and loved it.

R15, check it out. Great flick. Alright I concede ny thread sucks. Fuck me senseless OP.fuck me.

I was wondering where she'd been for the past few years. I just assumed she'd got hooked on drugs again due to taking pain meds after cosmetic surgery.

She still does the obsessive name dropping thing?

I remember pausing the movie when the image of the "Big Hairy Cock" flashed up so I could pleasure myself. I was a horny teen with no internet!

R18 really? She made headlines in 2020 by being so outspoken about Britney’s conservatorship

Last time I seen this thot she was on an episode of Empire. she actually wasn't a bad actress come to think of it.

She lives in the UK now I believe.

Weird to me that Brad Pitt is hell-bent on making a movie about Kurt Cobain.

R23 not shocking at all. That’s easy Oscar-bait for him and he had the right look while younger.

Plus that movie would probably make $$$

"She lives in the UK now I believe."

She does. She said in this interview that she probably will never move back.

R2 Jesus Christ, taking a fucking pill.

If Courtney Love worked at my business and I had a say in her employment I’d have fired her too. Such a myopic narcissist. She doesn’t even grasp that this story makes Pitt more appealing!

R14 Courtney's always been a star-fucking name-dropper. For those who haven't seen it, here she is trying to upstage Madonna at the MTV Video Music Awards way back in 1995. A veritable classic. Also, interesting to note how relatively sane Madge still is here. Fun starts at about 2:35.

She changes her story all the time. She is only fine in bit roles like in Basquiat and Feeling Minnesota, not a co-lead. She would not have worked in Fight Club. The movie was perfectly cast and I say this as someone who read the book.

I thought she pulled off co-lead pretty well in Larry Flynt. Not that I'd have her playing lead in a wide variety of roles, but I think she can decent enough in certain leading roles.

R31 her chemistry with Woody was off the charts. She was perfect for that role.

You gotta admit, she finally looks better than Madonna, and has probably done 10x the amount of drugs, booze, and cigarettes than she.

R29, was watching that a few months ago with friends. Madge is insanely pretty there but also she just evokes superstar. She was a complete goddess and welcoming middle aged like entertainment royalty she is. Now she's gone off the deep end.

She was in a movie with Charlize Theron and Kevin Bacon that I enjoyed. She was good in it.

R34 was Madge middle aged in 1995? Not really.

R36 not yet but close to it. I suspect she would have been a couple years shy of 40.

She’s still addicted to drama.

How much $$$$ did Cuntney get for murdering Kurt& how much did she blow on drugs and alcohol!1

Didn't she spend all of her $$$$?

No. She still has a lot of money. She is set for life because she owns Kurt’s likeness.

Didn't she drain Frances Bean's trust fund and lie about it, blaming the lawyers?

She's bad news, she's always been bad news. Junkie mind.

R31 I thought she was over-the-top, pulling faces and mugging for the camera. I could SEE her acting. Ultimately, the director's fault, but I would've enjoyed the movie more with an actress who understands nuance and character development. She probably only got hired anyway for the novelty of seeing a bad girl junkie play a bad girl junkie.

R42 nuance? Lmao did you watch that movie? A nuanced performance wouldn’t have worked. The entire film is loud, flashy and over the top. Her performance fit right in.

Her performance In The People vs Larry Flynt was fine. As for typecasting her as a junkie whore, it worked.

Her death scene was tragic

I manage not to see fight club until like 10 years after it came out that was only because of a boyfriend who is obsessed with making me see it and frankly I thought it was stupid and couldn't end fast enough. I still hate that I've ever seen it because it was such a god-awful stupid ass movie.

Bro fest- hard pass.

R23, he might have loved the band.

Depending on your age, you might not get how huge and important Nirvana was for young men. Say 14-30.

Especially young men who loved rock music, but also had an arty side.

I know for me, I was obsessed with Kurt and everything he represented. An artistic guy, who painted, sang, wrote poetry, but who could also be a badass, scream like a banshee, all the while standing up for women and gays in a male dominated, straight world...when he was the biggest rock star on the planet? It was so fresh. Or it felt fresh to me anyway.

I could see someone like Brad feeling similarly.

R47 = YASSSS KWEEN

Really? I could see Pitt wanting to think he felt similarly, but even with his own self-delusion he'd have to realise the massive gulf between what Kurt stood for and what Pitt stands for (which is...what?)

This is how this reads. Kurt Cobain was a huge cultural icon, and Pitt outside of being a fan, wanted to make a film on the Rockstar to boost his profile. The film would have been made with ambitions of being a critical and commercial success.

Now you have Courtney Love, who may have been in negotiations for the role who tried to use her leverage, but because she is an addict and mentally ill probably behaved so unprofessional and thought she could get hollywood big wigs to cater to her demands. I doubt she was ever actually casted and fired. And they just probably said fuck the whole Cobain project.

R51 only she was cast. It’s been known for years she was cast and fired. Janeane Garofalo was who they were gonna cast and Norton had that blocked so his then-GF Courtney Love could be cast. She was cast but then fired and Helena Bonham Carter was cast not long before filming started.

The revelation wasn’t that she was fired. That’s known. The revelation is that Brad Pitt was behind her firing.

A few years ago Edward Norton was even called out for his blocking Janeane from getting the role for his GF Courtney. He denies being behind it.

Kurt Cobain wasn’t just some star, he was a cultural Icon who became the face of punk, post-punk and indie rock. Nirvana made that genre (and sub-genre) mainstream. That is why Kurt became an icon. He popularized a genre to the world, and made it mainstream and became the face of it.

And then he died young and fast, immortalizing him and his status.

Playing him would be any actors dream. That’s a high profile role.

R55 You are spot on my friend. Even people in hip hop love Kurt Cobain. He is like the Tupac Shakur of rock, perhaps even bigger.

Yes r56. He brought an entire genre of music to the mainstream and made it cool with youth. Before him it was pretty much limited to Seattle. Very few listened to it around the country. And then he came and boom, everyone suddenly loved it all over the world.

People forget that punk and grunge weren’t popular until Nirvana.

Janeane Garofalo in that role would have changed the whole movie, she’s so dykey with zero sex appeal and I’m a fan.

R40, according to this, Frances, not Courtney, owns the rights to Kurt’s image and likeness.

R59 controlled is great. But Courtney still owns a big percentage of Nirvana. Meanwhile the other 2 band members only own 11.5% of 11 of Nirvana songs. That’s it.

PS Frances Bean Cobain is their child.

Their child also owns part of Nirvana.

Courtney sold 50% of her ownership a few years ago. But she still owns a portion.

HBC was fantastic as Marla because she’s fantastic in everything. Courtney could have pulled it off imo.

How did their daughter inherit the rights if he and Courtney were married. Did she relinquish her rights to her daughter as a protective measure because she knows she's unstable.

R64 it’s because people kept coming for her with lawsuits and trying to put her in a conservatorship so they can take away her rights. Then THEY would own the rights. Now Courtney.

So she relinquished over 50% of her rights to their daughter.

Courtney has spoken about how the industry tried putting her in a conservatorship, but unlike sweet Britney, they were in over their heads with her and they couldn’t get her in one because she kept fighting back. And the reason they wanted her in one was to take over the rights of her dead husband. Once you’re in a conservatorship you lose all human rights. They now can sign off his rights to someone else and she loses it all.

I’m pretty sure this led to her relinquishing her rights to her daughter, so if they were somehow successful in putting her in a conservatorship, they still don’t get the rights to her late husband.

This is also why she moved to the UK, where they now can’t do shit to her.

I believe that CL had a hand in Kurts' death and should have no say in anything.

If she's selling off rights to Nirvana she's probably broke or soon will be. Her daughter wisely dumped her after she was fucking with her money. And yes, she blamed the lawyers but it was clearly her doing.

Addicts aren't good with finances.

As for Kurt and Nirvana, they've basically become alt Elvis. The window to cash in is closing.

The world has moved on.

Kurt was responsible for his own death.

She posted on insta

Part 2

Part 3

She has always enjoyed public feuds. Brad doesn't seem like the type to respond to this type of thing. I wonder why she doesn't go after political figures like Boebert and Greene.

Because she is a star fucker. Has she ever been into politics?

Does anyone really care? She's a complete has-been now, and he's still the star of big Hollywood releases.

"Helena Bonham Carter absolutely slayed as Marla."

Did she, though?"

Brad Pitt is a complete opposite of Kurt Cobain

So Garafalo was nixed in favor of Love ... and she is whining because got the same treatment?

Then there is Julia Louis-Dreyfus effectively ruling herself out at a meeting when it became clear she had never heard of Fincher.

And Reese Witherspoon wanted the role but was deemed too young.

You'd think the role would be the Nurse Ratchet of that generation where everyone turned it down.

I'm glad she blocked that Cobain biopic. It would have been garbage.

The above comment is a reference to Bill Simmons' diabolically stupid argument that HBC was not so great in "Fight Club".

Proof?

Maria would have been an Oscar-nominated role in the hands of Reese Witherspoon. Honestly, you need a chart to try and begin to explain how stupid that argument even is and it's probably Simmons' worst contribution to The Rewatchables podcast.

I actually listened to the podcast. I hate Macron, so that's rare for me.

There is no doubt that woman is a supernova. She's utterly exhausting - I could last about 2 minutes with her in real life - but 100% captivating. Even more so now that she's sober.

The Pitt story was hysterical to me. She self aggrandizes about everything. But that's the fun of it.

who?
