We saw the movie Moneyball tonight. It was a really good movie. Brad Pitt was good, but to me, Jonah Hill kinda stole the movie. It's a baseball movie. Phillip Seymour Hoffman played the team coach. I loved the movie. I'm lucky to get to see some movie sneak previews, and this was an especially good one. We saw 50/50 again last night. I would recommend both movies.

Moneyball is a really interesting book, and I wasn't sure how they would make it into a movie. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Brad Pitt is from Springfield, MO

Loved Moneyball (the book) and I know the movie will be spoiled for me because the Jonah Hill character is completely fictional, a conglomeration of several real-life people which also means they completely omit the second most important person in the story, Paul Depodesta.

However, it's getting 87% on Rotten Tomatoes, and that's a very good sign.

I want to read the book and see the movie, not sure which order to do it in.

Brad Pitt is from Springfield, MO

So the official record of him being from Shawnee is false?!

Technically, you're equally right as you are wrong.

He was BORN in Shawnee, but moved to Springfield, Missouri before he was even a year old. He went to elementary and high school in Springfield, and spent a few years at the University of Missouri. He considers himself a Missourian, even though his grandmother lives in Shawnee.

I have cousins in Shawnee that knew the Pitts before they moved to Springfield.

They never knew Brad but knew his parents.

Then he is a true born Oklahoman. :-D

Saw Moneyball again Tuesday night. Liked it better the second time.I liked it the first time too.lol

I might read the book first, although I suspect they're going to be really different. There's too much detail that would be almost impossible to put in a movie that really made the book interesting to me. I didn't realize Paul Depodesta isn't a character in the movie. That's a shame.

Now 93% on Rotten Tomatoes -- that's about as good as it gets for live action.

I saw an interview on ESPN with Jonah Hill and he stated that Paul Depodesta didn't like how he was portrayed in the book. They figured he wouldn't like how he was portrayed in the movie so out of respect they made this mash up character that you stated.
