😂😂. I struggle with Tom Cruise in the hero role - I have seen him in person and he is tiny.
I realize that’s an unfair bias - but the camera work they have to do to try to hide it is so obvious.
This got tiring real quick,ya he's the best trial lawyer after trying.....0 cases but takes down a General in line for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.Hope Sam,Marq Husker,ELA are all taking pointers.He also happens to be the Best Race Car Driver also winning it all after injury,but wait there's more.He also is the very best Fighter Pilot makes the Naval Fliers @ Midway appear as their in crop dusters,the hits just keep on coming I tell you

I've been an extra in a couple of movies filmed around Austin over the years.  I agree with you on just how much STUFF and how many PEOPLE it appears to require.

You do realize that Tom Cruise is an actor and he was playing roles in movies for all of that, right?  I mean, he didn't actually do all those things himself.  

John Wayne also was not a Western gunfighter in the 1850s.  He, too, was an actor.

I am somewhere in the crowd during some of these auditorium scenes.  I'm the guy who looks like a very young John Stamos.

Ya think - hey thanx,the uppity knob just wants the Cheeky roles.Like to see him try Mickey Roarke in Barfly or Christopher Walken in Suicide Kings or Donald Sutherland in Kelley's Heroes.Scratch that last one Cruise couldn't pull that off with God's help

I could maybe see him in Barfly.  No way in the other two.  But I'd also never buy Donald Sutherland or Christopher Walken as a young beach volleyball playing fighter pilot.

Cruise did an awesome cameo in Tropic Thunder, nowhere close to his typical Hollywood Leading Man roles.  Absolutely stole the show.

Yeah Boba Fett is pretty good.  I've always hated Fett and never understood why so many Star Wars nerds seemed to idolize him.  But they've actually made me appreciate his character.  Well done, Disney!


i never hated him, just didn't care. he got like 3 min of screen time in the ot, never understood why he was so loved. i know he was on some of the other cartoons and stuff, which were fun, but he was a huge fan fav way before those came out.

but i have really enjoyed his show. lots of people hating on it, but i thought it was pretty well done for the most part. obvious setup for future stuff.

so ready for the kenobi show. now that's my favorite character.

Yeah I guess I shouldn't say I hated him.  I was largely indifferent to him.

What I hated was all the fanbois that geeked out over him, for no good reason.

But now they've put a lot of depth into the character and I'm enjoying the show so far. Only through the first three episodes so no spoilers! :)

Yeah, I remember Denzel Washington talking about his role in Training Day. He had basically spent his entire career playing the hero role in movies, and he said being able to play the bad guy was very interesting and fun. 

Cruise probably can't play the villain in movies, lest it make Scientology look bad.

palpatine is back for a third time!!!

have i ever expressed how much i hated that? the prequels have their issues but at least the overall story was sound and coherent. the sequels are just a mess. fun, but a mess.
