Those Are Fightin' Words

Brad Pitt has been branded a "wimp" by Hollywood actor Val Kilmer - who claims the Troy star's muscle-bound physique on film posters have been "air-brushed".

Kilmer, 44 - who will appear in rival epic Alexander later this year - has challenged Pitt's widely publicized weight training, claiming his beefy figure was faked. The Batman Forever star says, "I saw those pictures of Brad Pitt, that's all air-brushed in, you know. He's a nice guy but he's a wimp."

I'm not sure I'd provoke Brad--Did Val not see Fight Club?

UPDATE: And in a somewhat-related update, author Chuck Palahniuk may adapt Fight Club into a stage musical that would involve director David Fincher, who turned the 1996 cult book into the 1999 movie.

1 I often wonder about Val. I've heard that he's difficult to work with, etc. I find him infinitely more yum-able than Brad.

2 Whatever, there is no faking it on screen and let me tell you - Brad was looking good! Val's smoked one too many j's.

4 Lawren: Since it seems you've forgotten. The first rule of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.

6 Yes they probably did air brush the movie posters but has Val learned nothing about Hollywood?! They seem to airbrush women ALL the freaking time on these posters! That is NOT Julia Roberts body on the Pretty Woman poster. They puffed up the boobs and trimmed down the booty of J-LO on the GILI poster. They also airbrused Demi on the Striptease poster. But that doesn't mean that Brad faked it. I saw the movie and Brad's bod was looking good. I like Val and his hunkiness but he needs to quit being a crybaby.

7 You mean Val "Please for the love of god pay some attention to me, despite my general reputation as a complete arse to work with" Kilmer? And please, let him tell us how the suit in "Batman" wasn't sculpted, that it was all Kilmerian muscle.... pffft. Brad, any old day, Brad.
