Someone suggested Ben Stiller, then wrote him off because he wasn't a TV A-lister. Which isn't entirely true -- remember the Ben Stiller Show? (No?)

I like an implausible situation between Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, and Owen Wilson.

i also immediately thought of Oceans --

Clooney for #1
Damon or Pitt for #3

not sure for #2, maybe Jack Nicholson?

Golly...I found another snag in my theory - Clooney is good buds with Aniston's ex, Tate Donovan. Has been for dog years - pre- and post- aniston. How ironic was it that before the birth of his and Jolie's twins that Pitt spent the night at Clooney's villa - while George's good friend Tate Donovan was also there. Two Aniston exes in the same room? I'd have paid movie-ticket admission prices to hear that convo.

mngddess...I don't think most of us believe it's Clooney, Pitt & Damon. I know I don't. We enjoyed gayla's dialogue but even gayla ruled out the three.

2008-08-12T12:05:00.000-07:00

I'm late getting to this BI, but applying a little logic - IT IS NOT PITT, DAMON & cLOONEY. First of all - the last Ocean movie was filmed in late July to early Sept. 2006. Both Angelina Jolie & Lucy Damon had given birth not 2 months earlier. Both were still nursing their babies. Jolie had a C-section to recover from and both would have been advised by their doctor to not have sex for 6 weeks after giving birth. And the first thing Lucy Damon does when she's cleared to resume sexual relations with her husband...is screw George Clooney? Puh-leeze. And Clooney wasn't dating Sarah Larsen at the time. He was still on-and-off with Krista Allen, who having been both a professional ho and a soft-core porn "actress" probably wouldn't have been adverse to sleeping with Pitt or Damon, but that's beside the point.

Furthermore, in May 2007 the O13 crew re-united in Cannes for the film festival. They were ALL there. They were all friendly and joking and partying together. Jolie & Pitt were seen making out in their hotel lobby by none other than Lainey at LaineyGossip.com. She also remarked on how devoted Damon was to Lucy and how insanely joined at the hip Pitt & Jolie were. At the time Clooney wasn't even dating Krista Allen or Sarah Larsen. He had a blond woman with him that Lainey said had a distinctly HIRED look about her.

Added to that it was at this time that Clooney, Pitt, Damon, Cheadle and Jerry Weintraub started Not On Our Watch. That charity is still actively involved in Darfur and this year they donated to the relief work for Burma.

My last bit of "logic" is that Enty says "the sequel" almost never happened. There is no sequel to O13, so it stands to reason IT is the sequel that almost didn't happen. So I'll throw my own suggestion into the ring - IF it's the Oceans A listers, then you're better off looking at Aniston being willing to sleep Clooney or Damon...then confessing to Pitt. We all know Aniston is a major opportunist willing to do anything and anyone to become a major movie star and/or win an Oscar. She's tilting at windmills, but hey, her problem, not mine.

The second Oceans movie filmed in the summer of 2004, which is when, as Aniston has already admitted, the her marriage to Pitt was really over (in the Dec 2005 Harper's Bazaar). If you don't recall, when the O13 sequel was first announced WB stated that all the actors were back on board...EXCEPT PITT. HE had not responded to the studio's inqueries because he was in France, then Africa, with Jolie waiting for Shiloh's birth. Warner's really had no idea if Pitt was going to do the movie or not until AFTER Shiloh was born. It was in mid-June 2006 that WB finally announced Pitt was on board and the movie would start filming in July. Who knows why Pitt was dragging his feet. People assumed it was because he was about to become a biological father for the first time and didn't want to be away from his kids. BUT...what if the reason was due to a fall out with Clooney? What if that rather abrupt divorce annoucent in January 2005 was precipitated by having found out that Aniston slept with Clooney? After all, the guy was on TV in Dec 2004 crying about wanting babies and 3 weeks later he's getting a divorce. Just a thought...

The only snag I hit is that Enty says the cuckholded actor refuses to speak to the actor who slept with his wife. But...that's a problem for any scenario involving these 3 actors. Pitt and Clooney ARE on friendly terms (they worked together last fall in "Burn After Reading)...as are Damon & Pitt. In fact, when Damon had to bow out of the film "The Fighter" with Mark Wahlberg he asked Pitt to take a look at the script and consider the supporting role of the older brother. Pitt later signed on to the film but it's now on hold because of financing issues (uh, that happened after the rather lackluster BO for The Happening. The studio might have gotten cold feet over Wahlberg's ability to open a movie). Also, Pitt, Clooney and Damon are still doing a number of charity projects together. They'are ALL still good friends and rumors are already flying that Clooney, Pitt AND Jolie will attend Damon's One X One event at TIFF this year. But...Aniston as the cheating spouse makes a whole hell of a lot more sense than Lucy Damon! Let's not forget those rumors that she had a lesbian affair with Marky Wahlberg's cousin on the set "Rock Star". Although personally I can't see her getting the stick out of her ass long enough to go lesbo...

2008-08-12T10:36:00.000-07:00

Don't you people think that the Oceans' guess is a bit, well, obvious?? I mean - if we go at it in reverse - Matt and his wife's marriage looks pretty solid, and just because she's a "civilian" doesn't mean she's automatically going to sleep with another movie star. I mean - she's already sleeping with a movie star! Brad is not going to offer Angelina up for anything - and I think he'd be pissed if she offered. I also agree that Angelina isn't that fond of George. And they've all been doing things AFTER the Oceans' sequels.

Your're being thrown a loop, people.

2008-08-12T09:41:00.000-07:00

adrian..I like the older movie idea. If the blind didn't seem so much in the present, we could make the original Rat Packers fit some way.

For the sake of guessing and entertainment, how 'bout Shrek 3.
1. Mike Meyers
2. Eddi Murphy
3. Antonio Banderas

I can see certain bets needing to be made with the first two.*giggle*

Now, if gayla would write some dialogue with those three, we'll have a smirky afternoon again.

2008-08-12T09:34:00.000-07:00

Matt, George & Brad are all still very openly friendly with each other. They sure fit the clues, but I just don't see it.

I know it's a stretch, but Bad Boys 2? Martin Lawrence for #1, Will Smith for #3, ? for #2.

Old school, Ghostbusters? Aykroyd/ Murray?

Think the Oceans guess is good. What about one of the other actors in the movie instead of Damon as he still seems to socialise with Clooney and Pitt...

And for a totally different guess: what about the Zorro movies? That gives you Banderas, Zeta Jones, Melanie Griffith and MD.

2008-08-11T21:19:00.000-07:00

hee, I forgot to clarify that I don't think this is Ocean's, I was using a clarifying example for the sake of the blind, and just got a little carried away.

I wouldn't be surprised if George was gay or bi, but I was always too overwhelmed by the hint of sociopathy to really tune my gaydar.

2008-08-11T21:13:00.000-07:00

Think the Ocean's scenario makes the most sense.. however, Sarah L wasn't around (despite what she tells people) until after the 3rd was released..of course, Clooney had others to offer up..think model Lisa Snowden was around for five of those years, and there were a couple of lapdancers who ended up talking..sure any of his skanky gals would've done the deed if asked. By the payoff time, Aniston was history, and Jolie doesn't care that much for Clooney so it makes sense.

Can someone make Ben Stiller, Christine Taylor and Owen Wilson fit? Meet the Fockers.

Wasn't she the guess of a blind where the woman would be talking to someone and if someone better cam e along she would drop person #1 and start talking to #2?

Oh but now that I think about it, no tv, and not all are A-list

2008-08-11T20:47:00.000-07:00

I'm not willing to put Matt anywhere near a blind item because he's only one degree of separation from Ben Affleck.

That said, we all joke about BA as the universal BI answer when Clooney is the answer to all the kinky blinds.

Based on recent blinds from all over the internet, Clooney:

Shares prostitutes with Leonardo DiCaprio where they sniff each others underwear and eat poop.

Is a bisexual who screws his drug dealer's girlfriend.

Hired that Sarah chick to be his escort and fired her when she got greedy.

Actually we are all looking at this as a modern film. What if it was something older with a whole different category of actors?
Obviously not too old because of the television factor.

2008-08-11T20:20:00.000-07:00

Ya, I thought about that too. They were supposed to get married this summer. And I dunno if Shia has ever had a girlfriend publicly either.

I just threw it out there,'cause I don't think it's Clooney/Pitt.

Ms. Snarky - if they didn't get along because of this affair stuff, wouldn't the DUI be a great excuse from answering why Mutt isn't in the next one? It seemed odd to me that Lucas would say that, when technically at the time Shia hadn't been charged with a DUI.
