Angelina Jolie on Guns, Fights, and Brad

Angelina Jolie might be pregnant with twins and talking about how she’s ready to have more once all six kids are present and accounted for, but with some reporters she is talking about guns, fighting, and a whole lot more. Recently Jolie sat down with someone from the Daily Mail and had a very candid conversation about how her and Brad own guns and know how to use them. She even went as far as saying that she could easily shoot someone if she had to.

Highlights from the Daily Mail interview are below:

On Guns:
‘I bought original, real guns of the type we used in Tomb Raider for security. Brad and I are not against having a gun in the house, and we do have one. And yes, I’d be able to use it if I had to. I could handle myself. I think there are certain combat skills that would come out. I tend to want to throw an elbow. I don’t know why. I’ve learned all the punches, head butts and kicks – yet getting someone with my elbow is my first instinct.

On Self-Defense:
‘I think it’s good for anybody to learn a skill when it comes to fight training – be it kung fu, boxing or kick-boxing – because self-defense is important. Brad and I want our kids to learn it. They’re going to get into a fight some day, so they might as well learn how to take care of themselves.

On Getting Down & Dirty:
‘There’s a side to me that people know is humanitarian, and there’s a side to me that’s a mummy. But there’s also the side that likes to get down and dirty and run and jump around and fire guns. I don’t want to lose touch with that. That’s one of the reasons I like to do action movies. It’s good for me every once in a while.’

On Her Role in the film Wanted:
‘If the Fraternity was just a bunch of people that killed for fun and enjoyed torturing people, then I wouldn’t be interested. But I liked this idea that if there were people who you knew were going to kill others in the future, should you take them out? And that’s interesting in a bigger political way.

On Brad:
‘We’re together because we want to be, and we want to raise these children together. We’ve both been married before. It’s not about some piece of paper. I’m sure we’ll do it one day.’

Ashtyn is definitely the casual gamer in the family. A game fan since she owned an Atari, Ashtyn can remember when her brother rigged the television so he wouldn't lose his Super Mario Bros. game. That is, until the power went out! A fan of all things Mario, Ashtyn is a Nintendo loyalist. She digs playing Mario-style RPG games, watching others play violent shooters (because she sucks at them), and playing casual PC games (like Wedding Dash and Cake Mania). As of now, she is into the Wii and Nintendo DS, though she's certain the games for PS3 and Xbox 360 are more appealing.
