    How can you not be looking forward to Valkyrie? Brian Singer is awesome.

    Nate -- Did you see the trailer? It looks awful. I am instantly flashed back to Kevin Costner as Robin Hood. It gives me chills.

    Ummm... no Costner bashing okay? And accents aside, can you honestly say his Robin Hood movie wasn't entertaining?
    And regarding Bryan Singer... he was awesome once upon a time. Then he made Superman Returns. And it was a flying turd.
    Tropic Thunder looks to be at least amusing. I'll wait for a trailer before I pass judgement though.

    I did notice the lack of authenticity. I guess only time will tell.

    Here's my question... does Tom Cruise actually NEED the fat suit in the picture? I mean, look at the man-boobs! Isn't this guy supposed to be a heartthrob?

    Representatives for Tom Cruise are infuriated pictures of the actor appearing as a fat, balding studio executive in his new movie have been leaked on the internet. The star is currently filming Ben Stiller comedy Tropic Thunder alongside wife Katie Holmes and The Holiday star Jack Black - and is reported to be considering legal action over the shots. In a statement, representatives for Cruise said, "Mr. Cruise's appearance was supposed to be a surprise for his fans worldwide. (Paparazzi) have ruined what should have been a fun discovery for moviegoers." Cruise's co-star Black is equally upset the picture was leaked to the press. He tells MTV news, "I can't believe it got leaked out. Could you tell it was him? He's not going to be very funny in this movie. It was supposed to be a secret, but there it is." Owen Wilson was initially earmarked to appear in the project, but was forced to pull out earlier this year.


    Ghehehehe

    The GoToTheDoghouse website put the paparazzo in the Doghouse today for ruining the surprise! What ever happened to Hollywood magic??

    Tom needs to calm down...him wearing a fat suit isnt going to amaze viewers. What would be utterly amazing is if he could gain that wait himself, just for the movie, then shed the pounds just as fast. Fat suits are played out :C

    That pic with Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downey, Jr. is great! The fat, balding Tom Cruise pic is good too. I didn't even recognize Downey. Iron Man should be sweet and this def has potential.

    Knowing that Tom Cruise, the Scientology puppet-boy, is going to be in the film dampened my enthusiasm so much so that I will not see the film. What better venue for Cruise to try and convert more hollywood celebrities than in a star-studded film like this. Next up... a cameo on Ocean's 14.
