I also loved him in "Seven Sins"...

This is where it completely bugged me. When he did Fight Club, he was still young enough to pull off a character this young. He seems to be playing the part of a 20 year old, and despite his ability to do so, he does not pass for 20 or even 20 something.

I'm gonna go ahead and hit play, but discuss. Seriously, how old is Brad Pitt these days? Not young enough for this IMO.
I think you are missing the point of his character.. I don't believe his character is 20.. he's middle aged.. The guy that did nothing with his life, but he's happy and think he's actually accomplished something, in his head he's the GENIUS in the gym.. he's THAT guy.

This is secret sh!t.. SigInt Sh!t.. this is the Sh!t.. F@CK!!

Classic lines..

It really got me when George kisses him.. Like.. WTH just happened??

And him "dancing" on the tread mill.. .funny sh!t..

different roles for everyone in that movie, which I thought made it even better..

"We've got her, she's in detention" "What are we going to do with her??"

And it's ALL about and over cosmetic surgery..
