It hadn’t really occurred to me, given my steadfast lack of investment in tabloid back-and-forth, but this holiday presents its own Jennifer Aniston versus Brad Pitt showdown, in the form of the Christmas Day releases of Marley & Me and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Also, it bears repeating that the “thriller of the year” sales job on Valkyrie is going to lead to lots of disgruntled ticket buyers, in my opinion.
