I can't imagine meeting Tom Cruise. I would be so starstruck, it would be like how mortals act in warhammer 40k when they encounter a primarch.

Pron on VHS posted:Denzel as well. Denzel and Tom Cruise are my north stars. I am guided by their films, throughout my life. Did you see the Macbeth adaptation that one of the Coen brothers directed starring Denzel? I really want to but it's only on Apple TV+ or whatever, seemingly the only streaming service my wife isn't subbed to.

there are a huge number of people, still, who will go see literally anything arnold swarzenegger is in, so I'd add him to that list, even though he has even less range than tom cruise cruelly, women don't get the same treatment as they get older. Even insane acting elementals like meryl streep, "tom cruise vehicle" as a descriptor for whatever he's in next sounds right whereas "meryl streep vehicle" doesn't, to me anyway

It’s always felt a little bit weird that people hate Tom Cruise for being part of a cult because… it’s a cult. It’s like getting mad at the people in Heaven’s Gate or at Jonestown

I don't hate Tom Cruise. I used to but I was younger and dumber then. I still love his death montage though, it's so good.

Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch was one of the first real viral memes.

Bird in a Blender posted:Ok, all-around is too much. He does action and drama really well, he doesn't do musicals, and doesn't really do comedies. He kills the hell out of anything he does do though. The exec at Warner Bros that was doing the campaign for Rock of Ages was right by my desk. He went through all these vocals-only tracks of Tom Cruise absolutely WILLING himself to be a good singer and stay on key and it was sooo loving painful. I don't care how many auditing sessions you're going to, you will never be able to sing.

I'll be honest, I haven't really looked at Deadspin since the last time everyone got fired but this sucks, and is probably because they managed to unionize their writer's room a while back. https://x.com/justinbaragona/status/1767241640014401553?s=20

Johnny Depp can't sing at all and he talk-sang through Sweeney Todd. Russell Crowe....yeah, well, kudos to him for picking a challenging role.

Seems like my bosses at work are making a bunch of big personnel moves within the team I oversee without seeing fit to let me know or ask for my input. Just lol if they're about to shuffle me out of my position based on the scathing self-review I turned in last month.

In Tom Cruise chat my die hard favorite movie of his will always be Interview with the Vampire. His Lestat is balls to the walls insanity and it's great. I'm glad the TV series also leaned in to it since Sam Reid is also an excellent Lestat while I think Jacob Anderson is the best Louis (Brad Pitt is fine). This really just is me getting hype for season 2 of the TV show though.

We should have told him to get out of that job immediately when we found out it was a sales job that involved getting your own leads.

Rick Moranis had to lip synch at half speed to make Audrey II's movements look right when sped up. Please, no disparagement of the greatest Canadian in history. And a ton of actors/actresses can't sing. Emma Stone was pretty bad in La La Land but it didn't really matter. I'm not going to see a movie expecting musical or opera level singing. It's a nice surprise when they can crush it though. trevorreznik fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Mar 11, 2024 |

I need to get new basketball shoes but for actually playing basketball and everything I can find locally is expensive and name branded. Like, no I don't want the the Ja Morant's. Ironically the ones that are actually a decent price and look the best are the Air Jordans, but I am not showing up day 1 to a rec league in brand new Jordans. Might as well wear a shooting sleeve...
