I'm going to put this out there, Tom Cruise is a good actor.

You see if you say this
then people laugh at you.

Yet I've seen films where he was really good

Tom Cruise was in all the best films of the 80s
Top Gun, Cocktail, Days of Thunder erm.. some more I've forgotten.

I generally think the better his teeth got the more of a crazy cuntoid he became

It's just a shame he's a mental

I agree
he was brilliant in Interview with a Vampire, it was a completely different role from all the Top Gun style stuff he did.

He was really good in that film where robert downey jr blacked up.
edit: Tropic Thunder.

I love Robert Downey Junior so much.
He's on my list of 5 people I hope to leave Wiggy for one day. I think he's actually number one. Yes, yes he is.

I loved him in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Val Kilmer was awesome in that too.

I didn't understand that film
and I haven't watched it again, but I did enjoy it.

I don't remember not understanding
but that probably means I missed something important.

I endorse the first half of this post.

he was much better than Brad Pitt in that

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Fri 28 May 2010, 12:10, Reply)

yeah Brad Pitt was a bit lame.

I read the book years and years ago
and Lestat was cooler than Louis anyway
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Fri 28 May 2010, 12:20, Reply)

yeah definitely
I read the book only recently, it was awesome. I think the film was a good adaptation though.

EDIT: Although they totally missed out the homoeroticism between Louis and Armand
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 28 May 2010, 12:27, Reply)

and the fact that Armand was supposed to look about 15
the following couple of books are worth a read too, but they become more shit after that.

The Vampire Armand is basically gay vampire paedo fiction

hahaha
that's a winning combination. Beats the hell out of Twilight
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Fri 28 May 2010, 12:39, Reply)

in a similar way he was great in Magnolia
also, see Rain Man for further evidence
