    The whole Scientology thing does make me think he's a robot, though.  Not that this would make his movies better or worse.

    I really like his older movies - I think the last one I loved was The Last Samurai.
    Recent?
    Mostly I cannot stomach them.  I guess Ghost Protocol wasn't too bad but that was a while ago.  He was great in Tropic Thunder but that was a small part.  
     He's also been in a few really good kind of futuristic action films recently, like Oblivion and another one I can't remember the name of. And don't forget about Minority Report. That's a great movie IMO. I also love War of the Worlds.

    Oh, he's a complete fucking nutbar, lol. But yeah, I don't care about that when I'm watching his movies. He's a really good actor who chooses really good roles in really entertaining movies!

    I like sci-fi but didn't enjoy any of those.  That is ok, why they make so many.

    I think we lost Tom Cruise right around Jerry Maguire.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Eyes Wide Shut is good. Magnolia is good. And actually, Jerry Maguire is not exactly bad for sentimental pap.

    I can't think of any of his other work that I would ever suggest watching, though.

    The new Mummy sucked.... although I don't think it sucked because of Tom Cruise. It was just a shitty story line/screenplay.

    I really dug Oblivion. And I've watched MR several times. Never get tired of that one.

    I know I’ve seen at least one MI movie, but I’ll be damned if I can remember a single thing about it, including Tom Cruise’s performance.

    Way over-due seeing "Lucky".  Oh man... Harry Dean Stanton- one of the very best.  I'm kind of left with words on this one.  Just great.

    This movie SO Harry Dean it's amazing.  And he died before the final film was finished which, having seen the movie, is not all that surprising.  I'm such a HDS, so found it very, very moving.  And real as the day is long.  Loved this one.
