click through NSFW (or should be).
But: why is Tom wearing a double-breasted jacket?
Please, Ogged. Anything having to do with Tom Cruise is obscene and violates community standards. I can't wait to see his "good Nazi" movie.
Tom Cruise has always had a monkey face. Katie Holmes just looks better and better. Fake marriage must suit her.
I don't know about "contented reverie and bitter longing" The left teen looks more like "semi-affected cheerful cynicism" and the right teen just looks sullen.
It's more that the guy on the left is thinking about her nekked, and the guy on the right is thinking, man, why do the assholes get all the hot chixors?
My business professor at CC lived down the street from her (reportedly teh wholesome) family.
That really doesn't look like Katie Holmes. And that really does look like a bowl cut.
10: why is Tom Cruise an asshole?
His upbringing didn't equip him to deal with his success and the constant exposure to flatterers that accompanied it.
For a different kind of answer, you can watch this video.
Your head _is_ in a wierd place today.
Part of me wants to admire Tom Cruise for at least *attempting* to have a hair style (rather than just cropping it short like everyone else), but it's such a shit one that I can't.
Whew. I clicked on that photo and thought I launched into a Xenu mind trick. Close call.
That's Katie? Looks good, but I wouldn't have recognized her. And she has like, 3 inches on Cruise? Jesus, Katie was fucking tiny.
Like Mickey Rooney and the late great Dudley Moore, I guess Tom is part of the select community of stud-munchkins. Modesty forbids.
officially 5'7"
Official stilettos and an official 'fro?
Why bangs, Tom? They really don't suit you.
Why bangs, Tom?
Tom Cruise doesn't comment here.
"I understand bangs, Jackmormon, I've studied bangs. You haven't."
I feel the need...for bangs.
Say, this is really stupid, isn't it?
That's similar to being pantsed, only different.
I don't want to work.
I just want Tom Cruise's bangs on the drum all day.
(Pass on labored Washington Monthly pun set up.)
Bangs get shorter and shorter, nights longer and longer, before you know it, your life is just one long night with a few comatose daylight hours.
Respect the cock! And tame the bangs!
For a bunch of Cruise-disrespecters, there seems to be a surprisingly high level of familiarity with his movies here.
hey--some respect for mickey rooney, okay?
before he became a reliable laugh-line at the oscar ceremonies, he was a hell of a talented performer.
watch him back in the 30's--a respectable jazz piano player, good singer, and an *incredible* dancer. you know the way michael jackson gave that sense of being on fire? mickey rooney had that when he was a kid. every gesture more precise, faster, more emphatic, than anyone else on the floor.
and, yes, freakishly short. the fact that his legs were only about two feet long makes the crispness of his movement even more impressive.
as to the photo, 10 gets it right. (and i suspect also gets what ogged meant.)
40: Faint praise. He's had some genuinely kick-ass performances (one of which, of course, you reference in 38.)
Jeez. How did I not realize we were supposed to be bangsing up with Cruise references? I think the bangsing of Tweety threw me.
I'm an unabashed fan of Tom Cruise (at least up through Magnolia). His anguished, half-thwarted masculinity--which could easily be a product of his rumored closeting--always seems a half-step ahead of the self-consciousness of American men, even though he almost always portrays a prize of American maleness. His role in Magnolia is dark tribute to and parody of this quality, which is in evidence from Risky Business onwards.
Everything from Katie Holmes and MI:III forward, I wash my hands of.
Risky Business was one of those films my parents literally sat me down to see when I was 13 or so. It was extremely important to them that I see this film.
I chalk it up to yet more proof that my parents are philosophically satanists.
Back up a second: there was supposed to be contented reverie?
Everything from Katie Holmes and MI:III forward, I wash my hands of.
Whoah, whoah. Let's at least agree that dating Katie Holmes was an awesome decision on Tom's part, even if accepting him was a not-awesome decision on hers.
Unfortunately, she seems to have had a nose job.
Maybe it just looks smaller now that there are fewer thetans crammed in her sinuses.
Risky Business was one of those films my parents literally sat me down to see when I was 13 or so. It was extremely important to them that I see this film.
That may be the most implausible story you've ever told here.
It was extremely important to them that I see this film.
The lesson being only pimps go to Princeton.
Right there with ya, 45.
