It's going to be be "Valkyrie", it's been Valkyrie since Singer & McQuarrie began working on it and it's going to be "VALKYRIE" when it rolls into theatres next August. 'Rubicon' is a rumor that went around a few weeks ago that somehow made it's way into the IMDB system, not a huge shock, considering the fact that 99% of IMDB material is submitted/written by it's readers. Most of the people online, the ones doing the prior stated reading, are incredibly dense.

Do the math...

(p.s. - Who else thinks that Cruise is going to be pulling himself out of that bit of a ditch he somehow dug himself into? With roles featuring him fighting the war on terror and Hitler, as well as a Ben Stiller comedy for good measure... I think he's doing some pretty strong damage control!)
 
Thanks to Showtime for the Hi-Res pic:

8-8, huh? Wow, 88 is code for Adolf Hitler in skinhead culture.

Still don't know what I think of Cruise playing a German. Would much rather see an authentically cast movie in the vein of Der Untergang (The Downfall).

Yep, "H" is the 8th letter in the alphabet, as in "Hitler". I really hope this isn't why they chose that release date. A few would get it, but to risk a larger audience just so your movie has a quirp to coincide with Hitler would be ridiculous.

I agree with the last part, Cruise with a german accent will be strange, but if he can do it well, this could be promising.
 
is his jaw real??..looks like prosthetics!

this is the coolest cruise ive ever seen
 
Well at least he looks like the character since Stauffenberg lost his left eye, right hand and the fourth and fifth fingers on his left hand

you think that being in Valkyrie is a bad thing?

you know what htey said to bale when he started in american psycho? no good things.
 
He's saying that Valkyrie is a good thing, the best thing, for Cruise.
 
I'd be ten more times interested if it wasn't for Cruise. I can't stand the man.

I meant to add that the first "H" is for "heil", so 88 is "Heil Hitler". Also, 88 was the bore size of one of their most used (and useful) artillery pieces. That last part is just coincidence I am sure.
 
Agreed, I also don't get all this hatred to him :(

Well, the guy's gone nutty with all his crazy antics. His wife looks zombified all the time and it appears Cruise has complete control (cruise control lol) over her career, and let's face it, Scientology is the most ridiculous thing ever.

Granted its his personal life, but one can't help but to think of the guy as a bit of a loon.

It isn't that he's a great actor -- imo, he's merely good -- its that he knows how to choose his projects. The man has worked with just about all the great modern directors; Spielberg, Stone, Kubrick, Coppola, Scorsese, Mann, Scott (both of them), etc.

Well, I have nothing against him, though sometimes he really does strange things. And I don't care about his private life, cause I am fine with him being very good actor :)
 
i know he might be a bit loony behind the camera... but people tend to judge him as an actor because of that.
i dont.. i like his movies.

The same here. I think people forget such great movies as Rain Man, Born On July 4th (probably the best Cruise's performance) and Jerry Maguire :(
 
Thatnks for the update Green! There really jumping right into this thing
