Also, he was on Scholastic's The Magic School Bus![]()
Yeah, I was kinda hoping he'd die too, not for any Cruise-hate, but just because it seemed like he should have logistically. But, the last scene was good, so I forgive them for that. Plus, any movie with NINJAS vs SAMURAIS is pretty infallible in my eyes.Alpha and Omega said:Michael Mann's direction in collateral was refreshing.
Rainman is a classic, and the Last Samurai was great. . .
even though Cruise rode into battle w/ Watannabe, was shot an equal amount of times, fell to the ground in defeat, yet somehow survived to relay the dying Samurai's message to the Emporer.
Still, that one 3 on 1 katana scene was really good.

He might. But I think it has way more to do with the script and director than Tom.deathshead2 said:But I love iron man and tom would ruin him

Pretty much. I have sort of an opposite effect with Affleck. A lot of his work is dreck, but he's such a cool guy I want to root for him.Erzengel said:2 things I want to add.
I'm a believer you can like someone's movies but not particularly like the person. I do like some of Cruises movies.
But, things like personal lives may effect how well people receive their work.

Alpha and Omega said:Phillip Seymour Hoffman said it best in an interview. "If a star is in the public eye, and they feel that they know them on a personal level. How do they do their job? The job of an actor is to make a person lose themself in his or her performance. How do Tabloid stars do that?"
Still, anyone who thinks that Cruise's performance in Collateral wasn't great is biased or inept about what character portrayal is. It was a good job.
What about Batman? (Not quite the same as she wasn't a real lead, I know)Erzengel said:Would WOTW have done better if Cruise had actually promoted that instead of his relationship?
