I thought he was playing himself in Magnolia with his whole "Respect the Cock" short-man schtick.. I'm with ya!

Yes, "Magnolia" was a film in which he was appropriately cast! Never understood what all the fuss was over him--either he's acting up a storm or mugging so much you want to slap him. As for his appearance, one particular phrase comes to mind: high school date rapist. That's the instant thought association for me.

Well, it seems like the haterd from Tom Cruise runs deep. It's time to forgive and forget, people.

Arguably, no one made you see movies he's in. And there are definately a lot worse actors... and people in general. for example Hitler.

Have a nice day.

You didn't mention his TEETH! How about that one giant bucky-beaver tooth that sits right in the center of his uppers, where the "seam" between the two front teeth should be? He appears so often in extreme close-up in his movies, and has such an obnoxious grin, that you should have ample opportunities to observe the freak tooth. I thought he'd had braces...?

Did so...in #10: "...you've got teeth like big Chicklets." What else is there to say? :)

How did a post about Tom Cruise turn into a Reductio ad Hitlerum so fast? One for the books.

Yes...either someone's a huge fan or takes himself and the world WAY too seriously.

...i wasn't being serious... lighten up.

peace.

Yeah, but Tom supports the war, so there is that.

Link from Pundit Ex Machina.

Whew! We can all stop talking about it now...we've received the ultimate validation! Thank you, Tom, thank you!

[/sarcasm off]

I like Tom the actor okay, sometimes, but he seems as slimy as you might fear in the flesh. Great piece - did you see that Datalounge picked it up?

Wow, was she unlikeable. I bet the reason short men get hostile is the same reason tall men and other women are hostile to her: she's a Bitch Supreme.
Is she "fiercely intelligent" along with being an "alpha personality"? What a dork she sounds like.

As for the reasons, stupid, not funny. If she thinks that's wit, well, I know why she's writing for free and not being paid. She sucks at it.

Tell her to read some Dave Barry or David Sedaris before she attempts her next list. Or the guy who wrote "Alec Baldwin Doesn't Love Me"--he likes lists, but his are actually funny.

This was more nasty than funny. This woman sounds like a snotty bitch, and I'm no fan of Cruise. Her "alpha-woman" thing was ludicrous.
As for being the "size of a smurf," that never hurt people like Robert Redford and Paul Newman, neither of whom are tall. Redford is shorter than Cruise.

Excuse me, the title of the piece was "Ten Things I HATE About Tom Cruise." Hello? Is this thing on?

Godwin's law (an old carry-over from Usenet days) was invoked -- Seki wins in a TKO!

Note to 'boy': Don't make Seki angry. You won't like her when she's angry. I mean it. For the love of all that is holy, stop while you are behind. *crawling into the fallout shelter now*

That made my day. The whole Nicole thing really shitted me, and pluease, anyone who has even a remote connection to Battlefield Earth needs a good ass-kicking.

I have never gotten the Tom Cruise thing, ever. Not that all of his movies bite, but that's more in spite of than because of. Great piece.

What is about strong women freaking people out?

He is gay, not that this is anything wrong with that. Really.

Losers.

I know for a fact that Tom Cruise picks his nose and then eats it.

So there...

Tom Cruise appears to be one of those people who are famous for being famous. Not because they have gobs of talent, and charisma - just because lots of people have heard of them. I blame the hollywood publicity machine for turning hacks like Cruise into celebrities, in the same way I blame sleazy record promoters for turning crap bands like Nsync, (and whoever they dig up next week to replace them) into "popular" music stars. The scientology influence in hollywood probably helps a lot too - money and influence can grease a lot of wheels, and open a lot of doors. With enough of both, you don't really need talent.

tom cruise will be enigma to some people,how he got there in the first place.

Despite his shortcomings (no pun intended) I think Tom Cruise's success is a monument to the human spirit's ability to get somewhere in life. Its proof a 5'6" far from perfect being with a big nose and crooked teeth can make it despite the Hollywood stereotype. It's the guts that he has that make him attractive. Maybe you are an ass but Great Job, Tom. You give hope for the rest of us ulgy, determined short folk.

Tim's right, so what if the guy comes off a bit too intense. The fact is that Tom Cruise is a champion, not only to short men, but to all humans because he shows us that no matter where we are in life, or how many obsticals there are against us, we can still succeed if we try our best!

I have to say that if Nan......I mean "Tom" was SOOOO worried about hurting his children, he wouldn't have; 1. caused their mommy to have a miscarriage, 2. Wouldn't be flaunting his whore..yes Penelope IS a whore..in front of his children.....let's face it folks, it is EVER so CONVENIENT that he is now screwing his co-star in a movie he filmed JUST before he dumped Nichole. 3. He wouldn't have STARTED his adulterous affair with the whore in the first place! PLEASE!! Penelope wouldn't make a good scab on Nichole's ass!! She is U-G-L-Y!! I also can not stand Nan....I mean "Tom". If you ask me, he is nothing more than a sawed off little prick who has let his ego get the better of him. If he were a mere man working any other job in the world, without celeberty status, nobody would want him.. I think the best thing to have happened to Nichole is that she is free from this hemmoroid and can FINALLY get a REALY man!

Why does everyone hate me? *sob*

Hey all you fucking losers. Tom Cruise is the greatest of all time. And you all have nothing better to do than talk mad shit about him. OMG!!! he's short, wears braces, and his personel life, stay the fuck out, he doesn't get into your business and calls all you fuckers sluts, or druggies. YOUR all just pure jelous and wish you were him....SO all you poor ass mother fucking excuses for life, eat a fucking dick.

Love your list. Nicole is so much better without him.
I boycott all of his movies. Not one penny of mine is
going into his fat wallet.

Hey Brandon, you have nothing better to do than to talk crap about how much you love Tom Cruise? ever heard of the pot calling the kettle black, Brandon? Jealous, yeah...keep on saying that - one day you might believe it. And who are you to defend him - his brother?? go get yourself a real friend to go all honorable and defensive about.

I think Tom Cruise is definitely full of himself. Wouldn't you be if you were 5 foot nothing, a hundred nothing and you got to fool around with Nicole Kidman, Penelope Cruz or probably any women in the entire world you wished. Whoever wrote this article, I guarantee, would drop everthing for a chance to date Tom or even be in his presence for more than a minute.

*snicker* No, rude boy, I think those are your own inadequacies you're defining there.

I have never liked Tom(Nan)Cruise. I should say I've really been kind of indifferent to him, sort of like an annoying itch, you know the kind, if you ignore it it will go away.
I loved your breakdown on the boy wonder!!! (tongue in cheek) :o) He is obnoxious, sexy he is not and never have I encountered a personality that is so full of himself, but then there are a lot of men out there that are legends in their own mind! :o)

Who the hell cares what you say about Tom Cruise! Your a nobody compared to him. Hes rich, powerful and an icon. Hes so gorgeous unlike you, UGLY MOTHERFUCKER!!!

What sexy, smart and talented isn't you guy's type? idiot fucker! find a life! hes the nicest guy in the world. Despite being so good looking, he doesn't have a damn about his ego. he's the nicest cleebrity to run into. and if you believe what the tabloids write about him, than god save you losers.

Who ever wrote this article must really have no life at all. Morons!!Well all of you just admitted that you are the biggest idiots on the face of this planet. You know it would be nice if you actually knew even one thing about Tom. But that's just in loser's nature. Criticize other people, when you guys your self are far from perfect. Tom Cruise is a man near perfection. You guys are just so incredibly jealouse! tsk tsk tsk tsk. I pity you all!

C'mon sweetie, let's see how many fake names you can come up with...that's 3 so far. Let's go for the record!!

Hi to the person who wrote this. You said that Tom cruise was a ego hogging jerk. Ok so let me get this right. It's his fault now that he's so good looking and makes woman swoon? It's his fault that he's so sexy and everyone loves him. Oh oh! Do I hear some one burning with jealousy? And as for his personality. Well Tom is jerk! Jerk for donating $ 10 million to charity! Jerk for helping needy woman and children in India. Jerk for building a school in Taranaki. Jerk for helping a lost couple on a highway. Jerk for saving a little boys life. Jerk for rescuing a woman on the high way and then filling her hosipital bills. Jerk for caring about people. Jerk for reaching out to people. Jerk for being so nice!! There is no god!

Well I'm not going to be rude like any of you. Whether it's against Tom or against the writer of this article. Opinions are opinions. 90 % of this article is false, so who cares? the writer is expressing her/his opinions. They maybe extremly rude or offensive, but like I said, it's all false.

What, did the Tom Cruise Brown Nosers' Club finally get 'round to this post? Nice going, simpletons, it's only been on the web for the past two years.

Actually, you biased woman, some one posted this on a board today, so this is why your getting a lot of feedback. See if it weren't for one person posting this link, your pathetic article wouldn't even have been known. Anyway, I don't blame ya for your mental health issues. Wouldn't you wish it was all true? Lol, you make me laugh hunny!

hahahahh this is the funniest article I've ever read. Too funny! I wonder what kind of a crazy person would actually have that amount of time. looks like some one needs to get a lifeeee...

Yeah, I must say : WHAT A FAG!

I can't believe you're all being so pathetic about one person's dislike for someone else.

You must realize, my little doves, that Tom Cruise is an actor... he does not do this because someone is telling him that he must be an actor. He makes his crappy movies completely voluntarily and and as such, he puts himself in the public eye completely voluntarily. Not all of us are obliged to like him. He's made a couple of movies I can bring myself to watch (namely Legend but only because Tim Curry saves that film, and Minority Report because the concept is vaguely interesting).

Trust me, possums, there are nicer people out there.

Has Mr Cruise donated any part of his squillions of dollars to feed the hungry in Africa? No. Has he set up any institutions to help the disadvantaged? No. The stress from a marriage breakup that HE instigated by f*cking a colleague (ie, Ms Crud... oops... Cruz) caused dear Nicole to miscarry. And you might also be overlooking the fact that he'd done that same thing to his previous wife before Nicole (BAR the miscarriage).

How on earth can you say that you "know" he is the "nicest" person in the world?

He smiles for a camera, boys and girls, little else.

Oh, and he's got a big nose.

Err... well I could be wrong about what he's donated and what he's set up as a friend just pointed out. Go figure. Still doesn't make him "nice".

Excuse me Ren, how the hell do you know that he's mean?? huh??? you pathetic idiot, your not even his fan, so you don't know about his personality. As for my self, you idiot, I work with Tom! And yes I do agree, he is the nicest guy! He takes out the whole cast and crew every night for dinner, he hangs out with us and jokes with us. I work in his crew department. He gets intrigued by people. I have worked with Tom in his 6 movies, so I know better. Get your facts right Ren! When you don't know a thing about him then don't make obligations ok?? Oh yes, and go back to 1996, where he donated 10$ million to homeless south african people. Not to mention he works in the Sabiera foundation with his girlfriend.

Your sad man!Really sad! What he's doing for the people of New Zeland, it's just extraordinary! But you wouldn't know. Because you haven't done a fucking good thing in your life have you? Don't blame other people when you don't know them...

It is funny because none of these people know who the fuck Tom Cruise is or have ever met him and yet they act like they have spent every minute of their lives with him. hahah you retards!! Oh and btw, it wasn't Tom's fault that his skanky, slutty wife had an affair with Rusell Crowe! Duh, he would dump her! especially for the fact that the baby wasn't his

Sekimori, grama dear, lets see how many fake names your comming up with now

I am short and good looking with charm. I have dated gorgeous women. This has always bothered people (mostly football players). Jealousy is one of the se7en deadly sins-ask Brad Pitt. Oh wait, he is rich and good looking too, never mind.

Have you guys ever tried watching interviews of people who have worked or met Tom? You guys are definetly living under a rock. WAKE UP!! And try to see what's going on in the world. The man is too generous. He's a little too nice and too non-selfish. If he'd be meaner, he would kick all yo asses!! but no hes a god!

I think Tom Cruise and Russell Crowe are similar in that they both have a certain something that either gets to you or doesn't. Cruise I like, Crowe I don't; I have a friend who feels the opposite. I don't think the explanation for this can be reduced to these simple "10 reasons"; they seem more like symptoms of the writer's dislike than the causes of it.

Debbie, I agree with you. Some one earlier said that these were false. And yes I do believe it is all false, because I know Tom really well. Besides the fact he's scientologist. It's the writers opinions, so there ya go

I can't believe there are people defending Tom Cruise haha! Surprise they're all women w/ the exception of Brandon and maybe another one or two "dudes". What happened? Did someone post a link to this article on www.im_a_middled_aged_woman_who_isnt_ coping_with_the_aging_process_very_well_so_ i_have_the_same_hair_cut_i_had_in_1984_ and_wear_too_much_makeup_I_also_go_to_bars_ and_hit_on_college_guys_and_top_gun_is_my_ favorite_movie_and_i_love_the_soundtrack_and_ i_smoke_virginia_slims.com ?

[Edited by admin: Spaces inserted to avoid page-width problems.]

Hey andy, thanks for describing your whole life story. Wow, what a sad life you have. Anway.......TOM CRUISE ISSS SSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEXYYYYYYYYY YUUUUUUUMMMM!

Hey Jess, I just saw your message on the page. Lets just ignore these lonely little children. They just need to suck on their "lollipop". We should give them some space to grow up.

haha yeah I must admitt! That's my life to a tee! And I do need to grow up! I need to get to the point in my life where I can openly admitt my lusting desires for an washed up 80s "hunk"! Kirt Camaron anyone?


I would also like to point out that my origional post was not a bust on middle aged women on a whole. I coulda talked about the bar fly men who have their beer guts and wear their polo shirts way too tight to be tucked in like that, trying to still fit into their high school letter jacket

Uh Oh! I smell burning jealousy! Too bad your not the sexiest man in the world, a good person and the highest paid actor eh? lol! This article should be titled "How people take their frustration out".

"And I don't need to grow up". Really?? Hmmm... there's a shocker!

For those pathetic nitwits, Tom donated $ 1700 to anti-drug programme.

and Phillips & Morris funds smoking awareness programs.

peace.

How much money to Phillips and Morris funds?

It really speaks to the power of the written (typed) word how our conversation can metamorphasize from relatively easy-to-take satirical banter into I'm-now-taking-personal-offense (for good reasons or bad)diatribes. Most probably finding themselves here from a casual search-engine browse of "Tom Cruise is a Hunk" or "Tom Cruise is a Jerk." I was laughing at first, but I wish I'd been reading a book all this time instead of actually feeling bad for the offended parties. Amazing how we get pulled in, no? I'm going to go read something good now to redeem myself for spending too much time online ~ maybe a classic ~ like "Ulysses," "Faust" or "Being Like Tom Cruise for Dummies." :)

He is a sex god!

All I would like to say is that regardless what anyone feels for tom cruise, he is a man with a dream, who worked hard and got it. So you can sit at home make fun of his height, his teeth, his smile, and anything else that you find irritating and do just that, sit at home. While he is a man living a dream, and getting paid 20+ million a film for doing his dream. And he let nothing get in his way to achieve that dream, absolutely nothing including his height or messed up teeth. And you can just sit at home making your nice LITTLE website dissing on those who have actually made there dreams come true.

Very well said jessie C! From my personal view, Tom Cruise is the nicest man alive, and the sexiest. And to the author: Yeah, I bet your a fucken picture perfect your self right?

i think tom cruise is a great actor and i know everyone has their rights for their own opinions but if you never met him or spend some time with him you can't say the things that tou are saying and don't listen to every thing that you see or hear like nicole cheated on tom cruise with rusell crowe.

tom cruise is a great actor and is not god to be saying those things about him when you don't know him.
maybe if u met him you would think diffrent.

tom cruise is a great actor and is not god to be saying those things about him when you don't know him.
maybe if u met him you would think diffrent.

No I think Ms. Sekimor is a fucking picture perfect her self so thats why it gives her the right to make fun of and criticize other people's imperfection. I just couldn't stop laughing at this article. The jealousy running through is just amazing. I'd like to see your picture face, your beautiful hair, your husband/wife, your religion.

I have important news to report. Sekimori is suffering from paranoia and is going through mid life crisis. Sekimori, it seems that you know everything about Tom (even though you don't know the first fucking thing about or have met him) so I'm guessing you are either Tom, Nicole, Isabella or Connor to know all this. I can see why your husband/wife left you and you have no children. Christ, how can one stand you? If I saw you, I would vomit non stop! Hey hitler..oops.. I mean Sekimori (what kind of a name is that? Well it's not hard to see that you were an abused child who got beat up at school), I wonder what your hair looks like :).

TOM CRUISE RULES!!! HE IS TOOO DAMN NICE OR HE WOULD KICK MS./MR. HITLERS ASS IN A SECOND.

AND HEY TO ALL THE FUCKING IDIOTS OUT THERE WHO THINK THEY KNOW WHY TOM LEFT NICOLE. JUST WONDERING, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT??? I DIDN'T SEE EITHER TOM OR NICOLE TELLING ANYONE.

ITS NOT TOM'S FAULT NICOLE CAN'T KEEP HER HANDS OFF MARRIED MEN.

AND ALSO, WONDERIN, HOW DOES EVERYONE HERE KNOW TOM CRUISE WHEN THEY HAVEN'T EVEN MET HIM?

10 reasons why Sekimori wrote this article:

1. She is a middle aged woman and not handling it too well.

2. The Whole Tom and Nicole thing: She wishes she knew what happened between Tom and Nicole, but she doesn't, so she makes up false stuff so she can gain more attention.

3. Tom's a scientologist: And you know how much Sekimori hates people who are not the same religion as her.

4. Tom's habits. Tom Cruise likes to help people. He built a school in Taranaki, helped a couple who's car broke down, helped a woman from an accident and paid her hospital bills, donated millions of money to charity, helped a boy who was being crushed by the fans, helped a little girl from drowning, helped home less indian children, etc. Tom likes to listen to people and share his gifts. Now Sekimori has the most obnoxious personality in the world. She can't handle the fact Cruise is so nice, and she, such a bitch.

5. Tom Cruise is a superstar. Tom's movies makes millions. No one opens a movie like Tom. He is the highest paid actor in the world and the most bankable leading man. Sekimori is a janitor at a new york high school. She is no one. Tom is charming, charasmatic, famous. Sekimori is a janitor who cleans up after other people's shit.

6. Tom Cruise's name. Everyone knows that Tom Cruise is the coolest name in the world. Come on..Cruise...Sekimori, on the other hand is a name that just makes you want to pee on anyone who thought of naming their child that.

7. Everybody loves Tom. No one cares about Sekimori.

8. Tom's beautiful hair. Sekimori's hair is actually what you would find on your dog's ass.

9. Tom Cruise is one of the most sexiest thing to walk on this planet. He has a thousand watt smile that just pierces through you and makes women swoon, and some men. He is sweet and charming and exudes charisma. Sekimori is an ugly, pahetic old house wife who never had any friends and got beat up at school and no one ever liked her. Even the nerds rejected her. Can you explain about her 'alpha' personality? It's obvious her father condom broke. Who would want to have such an ugly child?

9. Tom is an AMAZING actor. Sekimori can only act to be perfect.

So there you have it. Sekimori sufferes from delusion. SHE WISHES!!

LOL DAV!! Right on! Couldn't say it better muh self.

Tom Cruise inspired me to be an actor..

My question is, where did the comments start coming from after 7 months? Was this on a message board somewhere or something?

I only like Tom because he dumped that stupid bitch Nicole! wohoo! you go tom

Where the fuck are you now? You stupid bitch(Sekimori)is just so jealous of Tom, because you couldn't fuck someone like Tom. The anology of the fox critizing the grapes of being sour after it couldn't reach it can be used to describe the stupid ass bitch Sekimori's jealousy. Where the fuck is she right now? She has stopped responding to all the previous posts! I would like to thank all the people that have defended Tom Cruise like all the men and women that have defended this nation, you all have done a good job in pointing how jealous some people can be out. Thank you all! Semper Fidelis!(Tom, USA, Marine Corps, Family, etc.)

Uh, Marine, this is a joke. Right? Kind of an Andy Kaufman hostility humor thing?

Is this a serious article? This... "alpha" woman actually believes that she holds even a modicum of intelligence? Heh...

Look lady, or should I say sexually frustrated, ugly bitch? Anyway, it's obvious to anyone who knows a bit about Mr. Cruise, that most of what you wrote is no abjuration of the truth. (Or if it is, you're one of the worst liars around)

What IS obvious is that you are full of shit, and that you are a complete loser. How do I know? The rage in your impotent "essay" says it all.

Do yourself a favor... go out and get laid. By ANYTHING. You need it worse than most.

LOL Scoot and Marine too funny! I wonder where Ms. Sekimori is these days?

The last baked pies were left to cool, the wind it blew through mountains and mules, golfagarast 4 made mages of dogs, sent to plague, to bark at frogs. Entwined in hate the grey one sits, contempt and rage unsoothing and crisp...chilling, the spiny wretch enshrouds all the mountains, all the clouds, the hate it believes no one can see, brings unmasking and death to thee...

nociception from the bosom of remorse

I can't stand Tom Cruise either, I refuse to even rent much less go to another one of his movies. Apparently I'm not alone, his last two FLOPPED since he dumped his wife for a newer model. Oh and all that "charity" just for show probably, I saw him on Oprah after the divorce trying to "mend fences" with women everywhere. He needs to brush up on his acting skills if he expects sane women to believe any part of that interview to be sincere. Before I get replies from the tom cruise hater haters, I am NOT middle aged, I am 22, and I have never been dumped in my whole life. I do happen to be married though with a child and I think the way he handles himself as a married person is horrid to say the least and I have no respect for him.

You are a retard, Ginger. You can't stand Tom Cruise on a personal level, that's why you boycott his movies? God I hate people like you. Not true film fans.

Oh and pstt.. he dumped that ugly kidman because he found out she was cheating on him. I for one approve the divorce. And what's these last two flops you speak of?

Vanilla sky- Made well over $200 million world wide

Minority Report- critically acclaimed (named one of the best of the year) made over $ 400 million.

Now I'm certain you are living under a rock.

I admire Tom Cruise because I met the guy and he came across one of the nicest guys in the world. So morons who bash him definetely live under a rock. Your hatred for him is so much that you aren't willing to believe any nice things about him (and believe me, anyone who ever came in contact with him gushes about him).

Losers. Get a life you shallow low lifes.

Nor does he have to brush his acting skills just because one crazy lady named ginger didn't believe him.

LMAO! Boy to people have no life. Honestly, how do you get so much free time on your hands? If you don't like someone, don't talk about them? Instead, you go on their message boards to bitch and moan. LOSERS! Go take care of your children.

i just want to say that when i practice the masturbation i just think of tom cruise!he drives me crazy! he is my sexual fantasy! that smile, his eyes, he is just my prototipe of a boy ! if he ask me to leave my boyfriend for one day to get in bed with him, instead of me mad, i would be so glad, so hot, that he provide me his body!tom i love you!shaira

Whoa, can we say OVERSHARE...at any rate I didn't realize how much I didn't like Tom Cruise until Seki brought me out of the closet...Now if someone would just do the same for him...

It appears Tom Cruise is some kind of litmus test for something - what, I am not sure.

Um, yeah, uh, Shaira,I REALLY like where you're going with this. Could you please elaborate a bit more? Wait, let me turn down the lights and put on some Cisco. Okay, now write slowly, and please, be descriptive as possible.

Oh, and one more thing could you change your name to "Shakira" instead? It's only one little letter difference. Thank you. Really.

This has to be the most pathetic and false article I have ever read! Hey Sekimori- what are your sources? Sorry, but National Enquirer isn't the bible.

by the way "bricklayer" my name is shaira not shakira! do you got that? well, like all you people know, tom cruise is my sexual fantasy,my desire,he is the most beautiful actor in hollywood,and he can act very good too,he is just perfect, you know that! i wish i could bring him to italy to live with me, and fuck all night long!

MMMMM, keep it coming Shakira. Oh yeah, call me Ice Man. Let me get the Crisco to go along with the Cisco. Oh yeah, oh YEAH, OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHH! That was great, now I'm so sleepy.

This thread is strange. It provides nothing to anyone, and it is useless

haha... agreed. and yet, that's what makes this thread so humorous.

peace.

i love tom cruise! i wish i could be his wife! you are so jealous of himk,please, he is gorgeus, a great actor, and he dumped nicole, and she is a bitch!

Yeah, TC is probably the shortest infamous actor today. The only actors I can think of shorter than him are Jack Black and Jet Li.

Also, a large proportion of actresses and models are taller than TC.

Seriously, the woman who wrote this feeble detritus of an article needs to take the city sized chip off her shoulder. What has Cruise done to her?did you spend a year in constant contact with him while he continually screamed offensive slurs at you? or are you just irritated by the fact that he makes millions of people worldwide deliriously happy with his generous donations and frankly pretty harmless acting? to be honest I don't think i have ever read anything more Omega. (if you know what that is).

I would also like to add that you may be blindingly alpha but that doesn't stop you being an immodest, brash and deluded little girl.

Acting-wise, which is all any of us that don't know him personally (and I doubt anybody here does) can judge by, he's alright. Rainman = good, MIA = good, MIA2 = not so good ... etc. I'd rather see him as lead in a film than Ben Affleck.

The post that wouldn't die, would that they were all so evergreen.

P.S. Top Gun?..... couldn't be better.

Eric, mate, do your comments want to stop being quite so wierd? I understand that you are of Scandinavian origin but that doesn't mean you can start unleashing your viking folklore upon us innocent Cruise defenders.

Since I couldn't find any other "Eric's" here, I assume that was directed to me, but I also couldn't find any references to Thor or fjords or the like, so color me confused or blinded by the Northern Lights or something.

Whoever wrote this is a disgrace to the female race. Do you have nothing better to do with your sexually aggressive, chip-on-shoulder, petty little life than writing sad articles like this on the internet, which waste everybodies time. If I were as sad as you, I would spend twenty minutes writing an article entitled ten things i hate about sekimori, but fortunately I'm not. Why don't you stop boring everyone. Stop writing crap like this; and keep your drivel between you, your vibrator, and your girlfriend.

All right Eric, I'll stop having a go at you just because you're a lot funnier than the majority of these humourless, dyslexic characters. my employers really shouldn't let me float around in cyberspace, I waste a lot of their time. and you can shut up psykimorri or whatever you're ridiculous name is before you start accusing us of saying something amusing on your post of virulent diatribe for the vertically obnoxious.

All right Eric, I'll stop having a go at you just because you're a lot funnier than the majority of these humourless, dyslexic characters. my employers really shouldn't let me float around in cyberspace, I waste a lot of their time. and you can shut up psykimorri or whatever you're ridiculous name is before you start accusing us of saying something amusing on your post of virulent diatribe for the vertically obnoxious.

Oops, sorry, posted that twice, obviously just love the sound of my own typing.

P.P.S. leo, Classic comments, at last someone on the right track, you sound like a stand up guy.

Well thanks, I think; and do females have their own "race"?

I'm with Leo, but I don't think it is as fun as the egg and spoon.

Thanks Rohan, nice to hear from someone who isn't a total moron, and has some interesting ideas and points to share with us. Eric, your chat seems to absolutely stink so I would advise you, like sekimori, to keep it to yourself. I will clarify, in case things were too complicated the first time around. When I referred to 'the female race', what I mean is all females. If you are too short-sighted to be able to distinguish that from inferring that females are a different species then that, my friend, is your lookout. May I suggest a little more time out in the open air and a little less time in a stinky little computer room, it does wonders for you brain. I'm sure Rohan will understand, he sounds like a clever guy...

I once won a beer drinking race after receiving instruction from the late, great Fox (ex of the Fox Inn and the Man Show), but then I got sick and passed out.

Eric, not only did you start with some pretty unnecessary sticking up for Sekimori (isn't that a Japanese toy?) but know after some (mildly) amusing banter you have off the cuff, informed us that you can't handle your booze. This isn't Alcoholics Anonymous big guy, if you can't take your ale then switch to something lighter like ginger beer or white wine spritzers, and start laying into the pyshco bitch that started the ball rolling with her less than amusing analysis of the pint size, catflap (swings both ways) acting chappie, our Tom.

so that's what happened to Fox! dang, i didn't know.

i thought he could drink beer like that 'cause he had a huge mouth.

Mark, alas the Fox died, and he could drink beer like that because 1) it was always way watered down, and 2) he could just pour it down without swallowing.

I will choose to ignore the other knobs who are still arguing with a post written almost a year ago by a writer who hasn't appeared here since October. Carry on.

Eric, you pillock, sekimorri logged on on the 13th of August. Mark i am enjoying your use of the bold font to accentuate the word HUGE. very innovative

Hi, i'm fun. Leo sounds like he's come down with the flu and has too much time on his hands, maybe he should get some money and go out on the lash with his friends

Shakira...Shakira? Please don't leave me like that.

Eric mate, just so you know, if you want to call someone a nob, it is spelt without the k. Tricky stuff I understand, but I am sure you can conquer it. Also, Sekimori logged on the other day, so it seems reading and writing generally aren't your strong points. Why don't you try drinking babycham? You may find it a little more drinkeable, and it will definitely suit the far out image you paint of yourself.

Knob is knob, when I write knob I mean knob.

You fools - look at the spelling of the Aug 13 "Sekimorri" - follow the link - check out the spelling of the original writer's name - follow the link to her site. Are they the same? Is the spelling the same? Is the writing style the same? Bought any bridges lately? Can you find your ass without a map? Move along children.

i'm back! tom cruise i woulds screw you nice and easily! BRICKLAYER very funny! i know u miss me!

Well, I get to dig Tom Cruise for both of us.

I think he is very sexy. And, what is 'short' anyway? I'm 5'4" so he is probably taller than me. And that smile. Oh my! The chest. How can you overlook Tom's chest?

I have met his major rival, Brad Pitt, and still prefer Tom, thank you.

Do I think he did 'Red' wrong? Maybe. From what is known, it looks that way. But, unfortunately, men and women wrong each other an awful lot.

Furthermore, he can say so act . . . he just happens to phone it in some of the time.

The real question is: Can Kevin Costner make a comeback with his new movie?

Thanks so much!
I've always hated, HATED! Tom Mopather, ALWAYS! and looked at his celebrity status as the ultimate proof that we do indeed live in a God-less universe, after all.

BTW: For someone who seems to hate this smurfy, gay(?), overly litigious, totally unsexy, weirded-out hair,non-action-hero,freaky religion thing guy,even more than I do,YOU SURE DO KNOW HOW TO MAKE A BUCK OFF OF HIM!!!!(promoting his movies)

This is amazing. 123 comments, 11 months after the post was conceived. Sekimori doesn't even appear to exist anymore . . . yet the post lives on.

Short guys rule. Aside from reaching things on tall shelves, we can do everything talls guys do but take up less space. We're more efficient like that.

You guys do know the theory that when you have such a strong reaction to something, you usually really feel the opposite, right? I think there's a lot more Tom Cruise fans in these comments than it appears.

And could this page get any w-i-d-e-r?

All right Eric, you win about when Sekimori logged on, but you're still arguing aren't you? Can i ask everyone who has written if they always log onto to web 'posts' for fun? or are they just bored at work? P.S. short guys can't play basketball or see what's going on at concerts

FOR SHAKIRA'S EYES ONLY: Oh yeah, keep the dirty talk coming baby. Pretend I'm Ethan on the train!

Eric, lighten up mate. Whatever. Don't you have anything better to do than marshall an internet site 24 seven? No one likes a loser.

Also, as much as I would like to follow the link to that chippy little bitch's site, I think I'll pass. And as for the 'bridges', do you want to sort that out? Are you completely insane, or are you just an inbred hillbillie?

Eric, have you ever dipped your wick?

Bored at daycare are we boys?

Unlike you hairless "knobs" I can verify with all certainty that Eric has dipped his wick.

Your insults rank as some of the dumbest and most trite I have ever read.

I am guessing tenth grade, held back probably two or three times.

Hi Dawn, I seem to have got under a few peoples skin, Anyway, being British (and hence from a superior gene pool) I'm afarid i'm unsure of the age group of tenth grade. Actually I study languages and philosophy at Oxford which entry for (unlike American universities) is based on merit, not financial capability. I beleive your ex-president attended. am bored now so I will be out of your hair but it's been fun thanks, good luck with the site. P.S. You should look up the word trite before you misuse it again.

*sigh* I hate Brits.

I don't hate Brits at all, but I dislike sphincters laboring under the misconception of superiority of any nationality. And "trite" means exactly what she used it to mean: worn-out, unfresh, dulled by use.

Rohan,

And you should engage in spellcheck and editing tools before trolling comments.

Douchebag. (oh, do I need to explain that word? Go to the feminine hygiene section of the drugstore, it will all become clear - so to speak.)

ok ok...the "I hate Brits" comment was out of line. I don't really "hate" Brits. I'll keep me Irish qualms to meself.

I read this page some time ago. A friend asked me last night, "What is the shallow thing you have ever heard" and my, I had to refer to this page.

"I don't like Tom 'cause he's short, cause I don't have a damn clue about his personal life, but i'll guess anyway, 'cause I have some sort of envy towards him, 'cause he has funny looking hair"

Sadly, the author of this article claims to be over the age of 20.

Look at you people. For christ sake, you have slaughtered a perfectly innocent man just because you had nothing better to do with your time.

IF only you knew, how many people are laughing behind your adorable little backs.

This has to be one of the most, racist, idiotic articles I have ever read. I'll reference to this in my news column this week.

Who fixed this post?? It's normal now.

I don't see any racism here, Tara, just a satirical piece on one of the icons of our age who obviously generates very intense feelings from every direction. How do you know he's innocent, by the way? And innocent of what?

I had just wondered the same thing. it had annoyed me how everything moved off to one side.

peace.

Our British visitors didn't represent their fine country very well, did they? I think Dawn was spot on in pegging them as high schoolers. Then again, the same assumption could be made about many of those who have posted in this topic, which often resembles an AOL chat room more than Blogcritics. Disappointing.

Anyway, the topic is Tom Cruise: I'm not a fan of most of his work. His litigious side infuriates me, as it does Seki. However, I will give him points for having great taste in women (I am a Kidman fan) and, IMO, short men are great in general. Plus, he and Nicole gave two children a wonderful family. Whatever his, er, shortcomings, he deserves praise for that.

Still, who would choose Tom Cruise when there is a magnificent alternative, a guy who is gorgeous, crazy sexy, wildly talented, family-oriented (he and his wife are adoptive parents too), highly intelligent, and deeply spiritual -- and happens to be 6' 3" tall?

His name: Hugh Jackman.

Hugh Jackman. GAGS!!! HAHAHA. How 'bout, ugly, jerk, self-bragging moron who cannot act.

Thogh, it's nice to know where your bias is coming from, Nicole lover.

I don't love Tom Cruise. But he easily is one of the greatest actors of our time. He's incredibly sexy and one of the nicest men in the world.

Nice guys finish last! I'll never forget what he did for my cousins!! Too bad some idiots have to slaughter a normal guy, who happens to be human just like you and me.

Sorry, Kerri, I was not a fan of Tom Cruise long before his hookup with Nicole Kidman. And I did say some nice things about him, give me a break.

I know a lot of people find him sexy; I just happen not to be one of them. And, in fairness, I said I wasn't a fan of most of his work. Born on the Fourth of July was an exception; he was quite good as the troubled Vietnam vet, IMO. And I liked Risky Business, but mostly because of Rebecca DeMornay and Kevin Anderson. And Bronson Pinchot was funny.

As far as Hugh Jackman, different strokes. He is a very nice and genuine person, though, in my experience. YMMV.

For pure, smoldering sexiness, Natalie? Dylan McDermott! I Iove that black Irish look.

Hard body and sweet face? Adrian Paul, especially in the European videos of Highlander. He must have the finest butt in the world.

Oops!

Adrian Paul.

Dylan McDermott.

Tom's the best! And he's being slaughtered here, because:

a) he's short (even though every human being has different genes)

b) He had to cope with a cold, party girl, flirtacious woman for 10 years, who finally fell in love with Ewan Mcregor and Tom eventually divorced her. Poor man

c) He was brainwashed into a dangerous cult

d) Paula Wagner changed his name from Tom Mapother Cruise to just Tom Cruise.

e) He's human like the rest of us and makes mistakes. Oh wait.. but I fogot. Sekimori hates him, yet gives him a god status. 'cause god can't make mistakes

f) because he made some action films for fun

g) Because his funny looking hair

h) Because he's sexy? Um, he doesn't call him self sexy. You should take this up with the billions of people who have labeled him sexy.

Read through my list! My 12 year old daughter scowled and said she could right a better list, with some reasonable statments ( You can't hate someone just because he has funny looking hair)

I have come to admire Tom because of his amazing acting skills and his wonderful personality.

Oh, and my wife finds him very attractive.

Eric and Theory: Do a page search on "edited" or "admin" and you'll find my handiwork. :)

Yeay P, you rule.

Aha! The page fits, now.

The page fits now? huh

MD, my spouse is "Black Irish." (Ohhh, yes.) Dylan McDermott is a most fine-looking human. TV's "The Practice" has much less to recommend it this season, from an aesthetic standpoint. But that's OK, 'cause I'll see Jackman in the flesh when he does Broadway. Goddess willing.

I had never seen Adrian Paul before. Not bad at all. :)

Gotta say my heart belongs to HJ, though.

Well it is a matter of the opinion I suppose, I can't say much.

Though, in my opinion, I find Mr. Cruise as an amazing actor, as well as a wonderful person, who really comes to help his crew members (that's me )

Tom Cruise is lame, and he's only "sexy" because he is made to seem tall in his movies and thus people mistakenly believe that he is tall. Tom in reality is short and terrible looking. Plus he can't act, so he makes movies that just waste our time.

Go over my list of 10 things again carefully, and you may just stop being foolishly devoted to Tom Cruise(which would be a good thing).

I was directed to this link upon asking if little Brandon, of Courtship of Eddie's Father was Tom Cruise's brother, and I get this CRAP. So much for 'Ask Jeeves'. I would write to Tom Cruise, but it looks like he's being pestered enough already.

.....other than the fact that Tom Cruise is actually short, you say. Did you actually think any part of Hollywood was REAL? Duh...

V, different spelling of "Cruz" and "Cruise," and as this "crap" informs you - Cruise isn't his real last name anyway.

Those poor camera operators must have really sore backs trying to make the little fellas look huge on the big screen.

The truth of the matter is that Sekimori attended high school with Tom Cruise and he rejected her when she asked him to a dance. She was head over heels for him, but he continually said no; at first he was polite and then he realized her stalker-like traits. She began to cling to him until the local law enforcement issued an order after family problems erupted and she tried to frame him for kidnapping. She ran away from home-and blamed it on Tom! Her father was furious until he learned the truth, but by the time he could talk, Tom Cruise moved out of town.

Although certain of my comments about three months ago were certainly cras and a little priggish I think I deserve a little credit for refiring the interest in this post eh? Who'd have thought so many people gave a shit about Tom Cruise? Allegedly he is going out with John Travolta.

I heap credit upon you - you can read other posts here also

I thought this article hit the nail on the head. Being a guy I like hearing women ripping Tom Cruise to shreds. My question is what is with the rider that Tom Cruise has with interviews that states that the interviewer is not allowed to look Tommy in the eyes? What!! Isn't this the same policies the Pharoes of Egypt had because they believed they were gods?

It's "writer" not rider, jackass

Drew, I'm pretty sure that Stampy did mean "rider," as in "contract rider" which is a document that stipulates certain conditions, items, etc. that a star requires when making appearances.

yes, like "no green jellybeans"

now I feel like the jackass

Such contrition wins many points.

So i guess your just 100% perfect right. I mean a grown...."mature sexy sharp minded" woman as you say must be jealous of him to write all this for some reason or another. Of course there will be many hollywood actors, pop stars, and icons that any normal american viewer can like or dislike. But you have to understand that peoples beleifs and personalities, actors or not, are viewed as appealing or not by the beholder. Just like any art form, some may like, others may not. I can see where your coming from though, yes Tom may be a bit over rated but you have to at least esteem the fact that he dropped out of high school and moved to New York City with nothing to become what we know now him as a successful, highly paid, actor. No one is forcing people to like Tom or consider him a good actor or sexy man, some people just do. Also How many of us can have enough desire and motivation to give up everything to become an actor at 18 years old? Another thing is you can't control dental features or growth unless it's performed unnaturally. No one is absolute perfect and i'm sure you wouldn't like people writing reports about your apperance differences. For the Nichole thing, well unless you knew Tom and Nichole, they kept there break up and marriage life very secretive. Tom announced after there break up that he would not publically discuss their relationship together. What you might of heard could be truth or myth, but the media does tend to blow things out of proportion and exaggerate. So unless they've actually told you about that, then it can never be the proven truth. I write not to critize your view of Tom, just to give you another percpetive of how hes viewed and scene without the media virus (Douglas Rushkoff Novel) affecting your and many other observers view of him as well as any other entertainment performing icon. Please write back
~Nick Bacino

You guys and gals are all what's that word I'm thinking of? Ah yes... OBSESSED with Tom Cruise and you know it. Don't tell me you didn't like rainman, or top gun, or even risky business. Have you even seen the Last Samurai? It's phenominal. Tom can not help it if he makes great movies; I'm sure that is the intention of every great actor. At least he gives 110% in every one he's made. Just ask John Woo or Renee Zellweger. That's why he's famous. He didn't just pop outta no where and all of a sudden he making millions. He had to work his freaking ass to get where he is. I make nowhere near the amount in a year that he makes in a week but you don't see me flaming him like a pig on a stick. So he's short. I bet your mother is short too! Big whoopy goldberg, you buncha pansies need to get a life and stop ragging on someone whom I'm almost sure you own all his movies on dvd. hahaha

But seriously, there's one thing about him that's interesting. He never gives up. And God bless him for what he did in the Last Samurai. That one you may just like.

Jeff

I'M 25, HOT, AND COMEPLETELY AGREE THAT TOM CRUISE SUCKS. NEVER LIKED HIM. PHONY. RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME KIND OF FAME. i HATE SHORT GUYS TOO.

ONE MORE THING I HAVE TO SAY. I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND FIND SOME OF THIS STUFF PRETTY AMUSING AND EVERYTHING BUT A WORD TO THE IMMATURE ONES WHO THINK THEY'RE OPINIONS ARE REALLY LISTENED TO AND AGREED WITH, WHO LOVE TO PRINT NASTY LANGUAGE ALL OVER THE NET IN A FUTILE ATTEMPT TO... I DONT KNOW, MAKE FRIENDS MABE? WELL, LOOK HARDER! THERE ARE OTHER PLACES YOU CAN GO TO FEEL IMPORTANT. I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD SMARTER THAN YOU AND I DON'T LIKE WHEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU PRINT NASTY, UNNECESSARY, FOWL LANGUAGE FOR INNOCENT KIDS TO FIND. I USE FOWL LANGUAGE MYSELF SOMETIMES, AS MOST GROWN UPS DO, BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS, WE KNOW WHERE, WHEN, AND HOW TO USE IT APPROPRIATELY. GROW UP! DONT BOTHER TRYING TO SEND ME A NASTY. I WONT BE BACK.

Hey Angela!, by "Fowl" language do you mean like "Quack,Quack,Quack" ??? or do
you mean "Cluck,Cluck,Cluck??? which of
course rhymes with: F***, F***, F*** .

OK I WAS JUST KIDDING ABOUT NOT COMING BACK. I WAS ON MY BACK WHEN I CAME AND I'M HERE TO STAY... FOREVER.

ANGELA

Angela, I agree with your basic message, and the gratuitous use of vulgarity IS pointless and off-putting, tht kind of language is spelled "foul." "Fowl" refers to birds. That's what HW was talking about.

I love Tom Cruise

Gee, I got to hand it to whoever wrote this thing!
That is if you are even still reading these, cus DAMN, you have hit a nerve on some of these folks. I can't beleive people have been posting on this pathetic sataire for so damn long...
xongrats

Good point, Link.

Tom IS sexy. (And I'm a heterosexual female saying that.) Did you ever see "Jerry Maguire?" He's sexy as all get out in that! Hey, there must be SOME reason he's the most loved and respected actor on the planet, chicklet-teeth and all.

Did you see "The Last Samurai?" Tom was fantastic in that. And sexy.

I think Tom is incredibly gifted, and I also think his personal relationships and religion are NONE OF MY BUSINESS. Or yours.

Well, this is unbelievable. The bone structure. The body without an ounce of body fat. The green eyes. The perfect skin. Most beautiful man People award. He works hard. He fights for world peace. He is the highest paid actor in hollywood. Just a few facts about this stud.

Oh my, you are not funny and not interesting.

Please, please stop writing.

Tom Cruise is a great actor in my opinion. He chooses roles wisely and make a lot of money,don't diss him for that. I am not sure about the scientology thing but that's his choice. I don't think Nicole is all that and besides they seem to be better off now that they are divorced. I personally think Penelope is prettier than Nic but they are not together anymore, so there is no point. I have nothing against people who are annoyed with Tom, I myself am annoyed with Orlando Bloom, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez etc. But please, what is wrong with being short, being gay or having "bad teeth"? Are those suppose to be insults? grow up.

whats wrong with you people?! tom cruise is damn handsome!

Jennifer Aniston isn't too annoying, but the fact that she is married to Brad Pitt is. Damn her. hehe

I don't like TC because he forgot from whence he came, and snubbed his nose at his home town who wanted to do him an honor.I don't remember the details, but it was something about them naming a field,(?) after him, don remember exactly.

hey:

he too much a pretty boy. i also was annoyed how he went off at the press after princess diana's death. i'll take john lithgow over tom cruise any day.

jack e. jett

Tom Cruise rox. He can act.SASSY!!!

Yeah you're right! This site really suckz!!!

And he is wonderfully than you guy!!!

I like Cruise. I liked Sekimori's rant too, even though I don't agree with it. And since she's criticized Tom's teeth, hair and height, I have no qualms about criticizing Kidman's physical attributes: that store-bought nose, for instance. And hey! what about that deathlike pallor? No wonder the ancient Chinese thought red-haired people were vampires.

I bet Sekimori is one of those losers who has to do that online dating shit to get a guy - unlike true greatness like Tom Cruise who is out there in the real world doing his thing, not hiding behind Blogcritics.org like a little homo named Sekimori.

You should give up as being a writer, cause you stuff is retarted and I don't see how anyone would pay to read that crap that really isn't even true.

Being sexy is not about the way you look, but the way you act. You can be ugly as hell and still be sexy...

You, on otherhand, are ugly and cant seduce a 3 legged dog...


Just because a movie didnt do so 'well' in US, doesnt mean it's a bad movie, TLS is currently #43 in world wide top box office
US isnt the center of the world..


Tom ROCKS, just get over it...

Well I enjoy his films and he has never done anything that particularly offends me so I'm sticking up for him, and I wouldnt mind looking like him.

Tom cruise must be the shortest, ugliest, and lousiest actor alive.

If you really consider how much money he makes for his minimal, if not nonexistant amount of worthy contribution to soceity, you'll see that TC is far too overated for a 5' 7'' guy who threatens litigation against anyone who calls him short.

And btw, the grammar use on this thread is hilarious. Where did you people learn to spell and to compose those incoherent sentences?

bitch is obsessed with the guy and spent her whole life researching his religion, his love life, watching all his movies, keeping up with his newest hairstyles, etc.

come on people, give her some credit.

and we should feel sorry for her having too much time on her hands :(

here's an advice. go out, get a guy, grab some real dick and u won't have problem of having too much time on yer hands anymore

good day

;)

This just in, idiot. You are supposed to capitalize the first letter of the last name too.

YOUR ANGER COULD BE CURBED ABOUT MR. CRUISE. ASK YOUR LOCAL DR., YOUR BRAIN CHEMICAL IMBALANCE CAN BE HELPED! THEN YOU MAY FIND NICE THINGS TO SAY ABOUT PEOPLE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW. MAYBE YOU COULD EVEN MAKE FRIENDS...REALLY! HAVE A NICE DAY.

he is the hotest men in theplanet. he has the most beautifull smile in the world,and beautifull hair . He is very talentet actor

There's no such thing as an alpha female. Society, culture and biology don't allow for the possibility.

Tom cruise is great. He has an excellent personallity en is a really good actor. He's also very good looking en very cool. stop wining about him

Tom cruise is great. He has an excellent personallity en is a really good actor. He's also very good looking en very cool. stop wining about him

OK. I prefer rum to wine anyway. (Tom's fans in this thread are notable for their illiteracy, and their willingness to beat a dead horse.)

If we're going to critique a short actor who's been in a lot of good movies, how about Dustin Hoffman? He was even in a movie with Tom Cruise, so we can double our pleasure!

And Dustin's only a little older than this thread.

I cant beilive some people actually spend their time writing about actors they dislike. Hey whoever wrote this crap "ten things i hate about tom cruise..."
Oh god where do i start? I dont think i have ever read anything more wrong in my entire life. Tom is a talented actor and deserves more then that. But i guess the millions he is making makes up for your little article, dont you think so?

This thread is now officially taller than Tom Cruise.

I would call this a satirical rant, wouldn't you? And it was written 2 1/2 years ago by someone who is long gone. I thought it was very funny.

Yeah, it's a pretty good satirical rant, too. I just think it's part of the charm of the Internet and BlogCritics that such commentary keeps getting bumped back up to the surface.

Oh, yeah, and just so it has the TC name-stamp on it: This thread is now officially taller than Tom Cruise..

hey so had the chic who wrote this like.. passed away? Or just not logged on to the site anymore ??
BTW I love Tom Cruise :)
xoxo

Hi guyz,

Has anyone of you seen Tom's new film "Collateral"? I think he looks great in it and does fantastic acting.

I think he's so kool in it, just fabulous!

Anyway in what movie does Tom look sexy?:-

"Collateral" or "The Last Samurai"

Nazia xxx

Hey Nazia, i have seen Collateral & The Last Samurai, hes gorgeous in both but if i had to pick one.. Hmmmmm.. i'd have to say Collateral. Something about him in a grey suit and his whole "sophisticated, Older, cool" look....ohh god someone get me a towel lol :)
xoxoxo

Hiya Layla,

Thanks for letting me know in which film Tom looks kool. I suppose you have good taste. Anyway his long hair and his samurai kit really makes women go down on their knees!

He's ready for any battle! ;-)

I would say both films for different occasions! lol!

Anyway why do you need a towel?

Nazia xxx

hahah i agree with you on everything. I must say your taste aint to bad aswell. Why do i need a towel? Coz i'm drooling over him here lol!
xoxoxoxo

1. He's short.

When you say that your personality is "blindingly alpha", you have obviously substituted a euphemism for "incredibly annoying." Your post is itself the only evidence required to prove my point. Your personality is so broken that you cannot socialize with "short men." This is extremely sad. Might I suggest professional help?

Hiya,

I totally agree with you Howie Dibble.
She definatly needs psychiatric help and some friends.

Anyway Im sure that being 5f 6 is not really short. I have seen real short men, and to me short is world clearly someone about 5f 2 or something. But there are shorter... believe me.

Men who are even short, fat and not well dressed can be regarded as okay. But people here are talking about one of the sexiest men alive, the richest, a man of success and natural charm.

I have never heard of any bad news about his behaviour or looks, etc But i have heard alot about other celebrities.

Do you know what I think would be the finishing touch to Tom Cruise? It would him becoming a muslim. He would be become one of the best people on earth, (he already is in some people's eyes)

The reason i said "muslim", is because I am studing this religion very deeply and it really touches my heart and mind and I believe this is what Tom Cruise needs to be complete.

Look at Muhammed Ali, he's a graet example...

God bless us all.

May people realise that Tom is a good brother, son, friend, husband and a father figure for all of us, because he has a right attitude towards life and people.

Thank you.

p.s - does anyone know when Tom's new film will be released?

Many Thanks

Pattricia x

too bad we don't have the pics anymore

I apparently have nothing better to do than add to this... I agree 100%. I hate Tom Cruise. He thinks -because he is a Scientologist-that he is a doctor. Scientology is a cult that makes money by detroying young people's lives.

Not everyone thinks he is cute or sexy. Rich, yes, but so fucking what? I am sick of seeing his mug everywhere with that sweet Katie Holmes. Cruise jumping all over Oprah's furniture and dragging the poor woman on stage against her will as he talks about being "in love." If they are truly in love, mazel tov, good for them, but get a room and give us a break!

Goddamned heterosexuals flaunting their societally approved hookups...

Message for Tom "The Ego" Cruise: Most of us (millions of people who don't and won't contribute to the actor's massive bankroll) don't give a crap about him or his real or PR-motivated love life! And some of us think Ms. Holmes was better off with Chris Klein than with an obviously controlling, "I'm the boss: paramour. Perhaps Tommy boy assumes his new trophy squeeze won't come near to equalling his movie-icon status. I hope she proves that notion wrong and wins an Oscar. How will Mr. Cruise like that? Ha-HA-ha-ha-ha-ha! Grrrr...

Sorry: I am not a Cruise fan and of late, he is really annoying me.

I also hate Tom Cruise. I think that he is the world's biggest phony. I hate the way that he initialy implied that Nicole had done something wrong to incite and justify his leaving her(" Nicole knows what she did"). All of the reporters in Hollywood were then on this "case" and were never able to come up with ANY dirt on Nicole. Obviously, there wasn't any. She was shocked and confused. What a sleazy tactic, Tom. When Tom realized that public sentiment had sided with Nicole, he tried to backtrack in the phoniest TV interview I have ever seen. He wanted to hook up with Penelope Cruz but he wanted the public to be with him. Now his affair with young Katie Holmes is disgusting - he is a midlife crisis case - his bizarre behavior on Oprah the other day was comical and nauseating at the same time.

I like him alright.

1) he's a great actor (magnolia, he was amazing, and eyes wide shut was a wicked movie which tom did nothign to hinder, born on the fourth of july,on and on..)

2) there is no #2 actually


What I don't like about Tom the man

1) Scientology. What the fuck is this all about.. I think its a big hollywood joke and I dont think anyone actually believes it.

2) scientology. I hate those basterds.

I think he is almost always good and sometimes a great actor. Some of the things that make him such an insufferable pud in real life, perhaps make him a better actor

not that I know what "he's really like" in real life, by the way, just working off of the image and public behavior

Bigot. Would you make such sweeping statements about Catholics or Jews or Hindus or Presbyterians? Wow. I am no Tom Cruise fan, but leave the man his religious beliefs.

Gee, Natalie, I don't think you should call Eric a bigot just because he calls Tom Cruise "an insufferable pud."

And this thread is still officially taller than Tom Cruise...

Doctor Pat (and Eric), apologies. 216 refers to the hideous statement made by Ms./Mr. Sydney in 213.

NR Davis

"Some of the things that make him such an insufferable pud in real life, perhaps make him a better actor"

Perhaps. But I dislike his persona so much that it is happier for me not to see his films at all, however good being an insufferable pud makes him.

Stupid question: Is "pud" referring to something obscene? The word is British in derivation, short for pudding, and Cruise is not paticularly doughy or fleshy, so I don't understand the statement.

I would think it was derived from pudenda.

Thank you, Ms. Rivers. That word I do know.

I knew you were referring to the Scientology statement, Nat, no prob.

I think Nicolette is right: it is interchangeable with "dick" and I like to mix it up

Variety is the spice of life, my friend. Especially when considering the vast array of synonyms for "penis."

Sekimori, u r so right on about this.

It's Only Publicity Love

As Tom Cruise's promotional campaign for his "romance" with baby-faced starlet Katie Holmes shifts into high gear, it's running into a brand-new PR problem: No one believes it's for real. Or, no one is prepared to pretend to believe it's for real.

Can I just say tom cruise is an excellent person as he helped my cousin who was ill with leukemia cope with it,he flew my aunt and uncle and my cousin to america and treated them to meals and took him round the top gun set,now i think that makes him a decent person don't you think.

Natalie,

I was intending my comments on Scientology as a joke (mostly). I don't know anything about Scientology, but from what I've been told and what I saw of "Battle-star Galactica" (or whatever that movie was called), I did sincerely think that it was some sort of Hollywood joke club for some other cause.

If it is indeed, a religion that takes itself seriously than I apologize.

Btw (it is a mr.)

jimmy, as u well know, one can commit good acts and still be an arse hole

Or like the rest of us, he's somwhere in between.

That is true jarboy but as far as i'm concerned he did my cousin the world of good,and he's one of the only stars that will stop for as long as it takes to sign autographs unlike brittany spears.Like sydney says i reckon he's just an ordinary joe like the rest of us just with more money.

i understand that since the divorce, tom and nicole have been repeatedly asked to return the children to the studio props department.

jimmy, if your cousin were a pubescent boy, michael jackson would have done a lot more than that for him.
