Paramount and Tom Cruise's production company parted ways after 14 years because of his crazy behavior.

I was watching A Few Good Men over the weekend & thinking about how much I missed the old non-crazy or at least the not-in-your-face-crazy, Tom Cruise. It's sad.

Ahh, the media sure has a way of spinning things don't they??


Let me see if I can find something a little closer to reality...

And the negative Cruise publicity has started, although he's not the loser that Paramount may like you to believe.


Oh I think he is (loser)!  I respect the columnist's opinion, but mine is that T.C. has lost his likeability.  His last two movies were not flops, but there was non-T.C. momentum associated with them.  Mission Impossible is a successful movie franchise, T.C. starred in it, but he sure didn't act in it.  War of the Worlds was a Steven Spielberg pic, not a T.C. pic. Hmmm...I can't really think of other one's.  Oh yea, Minority Report - eh.  Upstaged by Colin Farrel.  Collateral, Jamie Foxx was awesome.  Jerry Maguire, Hello Cuba!

I think the studio has realized that he has lost most of his female fans, which were a huge majority of what packed the box office for his movies. It is a great trend, IMO, that these studios are starting to take a stand against the stars, as in Tom Cruise and Lindsay Lohan. Just because they are rich and famous should not mean that they don't have to take their jobs serious. If we, as normal people, went out and got drunk every night and missed work claiming we were exhausted we would be fired. Tom Cruise was hired by Paramount as a personality and that also makes them look bad when he is being crazy Tom! I don't blame them.


Sibeski-that shirt is too funny!
