People say this kind of often, but I've never really been bugged by it, same way people let guys like Pacino and Deniro slide, fucking Deniro can't even cry properlyq

He plays a heterosexual in nearly every movie.

Not that there's anything wrong with Tom Cruise just playing himself. I don't know why, but Tom Cruise playing Tom Cruise doesn't bother me at all. He's just so naturally charismatic.

Apparantly had the hand prosthetics made himself to add to his character.
>>
>>82677138

The prosthetics, the dancing the character himself was like 90% of his idea, Stiller himself said the character's creation solved a plothole they had, it was right on the heels after the couch jump and the Matt Lauer interview (mind you, even then the movies he headlined that year still made bank) and basically it was Tom getting back at the Hollywood machine as a whole.
>>
>>82677056
Nicholson is the same way.
>>
>>82676928

There were rumours going around of Les getting is own entire film, apparently Tom was really on board for it.
>>
>>82677226
Frankly, given his box office draw, he'd have to go full-on Gibson and bite the hand that feeds him to actually be blacklisted.

Hell, even Gibson has got back and he's no where near Cruise's league.
>>
>>82676928
How the fuck did they got away with these?
>>
>>82677294

That'd need to be a strong fucking script, and honestly Les is perfect as is, it's one of the best cameos ever
>>

>he'd have to go full-on Gibson and bite the hand that feeds him to actually be blacklisted.

>>82677390
It may shock you, but not everyone sees that and immediately things 'Yup, that's exactly what Jews look like'.
>>
>>82677390
Tom Cruise can do whatever the fuck he wants. He's Hollywood royalty. He's the #1 actor in the world and has been for decades.

He's the boss. And a funny guy to boot.

He got drunk and ranted to cops pulling him over about the fucking jooz, which is a dumb thing to do when you work in an industry with a large number of jewish people.
>>
>>82677415

He's just referring to how Gibson had that meltdown screaming at his wife and using a bunch of racial slurs and calling out the jews, it was a rough time but even then a lot of famous folk still stuck up for him and even RDJ, who personally said it's thanks to Mel that he managed to clean himself up after his bouts with addiction publically called for everyone to forgive and forget.
>>
literally did not know it was him until my 3rd or 4th watch

In retrospect, this movie was probably the greatest blessing ever to the careers of Cruise, McConaughey, and RDJR.

My jaw hit the floor when I saw his name in the credits.

I wasn't expecting him to star in Tropic Thunder.

based
>>
I've watched Tropic Thunder 3 times and it's been even funnier with each viewing, I've never experienced that with any other comedy.
>>
>>82677761

To be fair, there was a precedent for this with his cameo in Goldmember but this was on another level obviously.

As much as people think of him as a couch jumping weirdo gay scientologist baby eater, he just really loves to act and he always goes the extra mile.

I really want him to do directorial work before he has to fight Xenu or whatever

jack black wasn't very funny either

>>82678241

Yeah at this point I'm ok with him doing what he wants to do and enjoys rather than trying to chase down awards.

>fucking Clooney talking shit about how Tom shouldn't be doing his own stunts at his age

Shut up, BITCH
>>
>>82678166
that was his thing for a while, actually. Now that he's older he'd rather just have a good time. Guy seems as professional as it gets, too. He's having fun but he takes the roles seriously. The scientology thing sucks though, seems like there's a real Stockholm syndrome going on with him there.

He has occasional good bits with RDJ. Jack Black is the movies real failure.
>>
>>82677138
as an ex-motocross racer he took the fall like a pro, learning to crash is part of riding, but man, he was just so stiff on that thing; he did a lot of stuff right, but that geared up bike probably threw the balance off, most first timers would have went over the bars rather than looping out so it's obvious he has at least some experience jumping
>>
>>82679409
he got it at too much of an angle you can see how it rips the handlebar out of his hands when he lands.. guess the balance wasnt what he expected.

He did repeat it and landed it too though.

How was Last Samurai received? Probably his best performance and a damn good movie.

Watched it in again recently, his acting is top notch, but his talking voice sounds a bit too young for the character. His screaming voice is much better.

Also, he moves a bit stiff because of the prosthetics, seems he can't turn his head properly.

This is a move full of people I would never choose to see in a movie that when all put together is one of the best comedies ever. I was shocked when I saw it and shocked when I watched it again last month.

Why couldn't the entire movie be like the opening scene? A pure vietnam parody instead of a movie making parody

Speaking of this movie, is the Brit director supposed to be the guy who originally started Island of Dr Moreau?

Maybe it's because I recently watched the documentary on that, I couldn't help draw the connection.

>>82682750
I never got that line, what's the joke?

Because then we wouldn't get super jewish Tom Cruise

It's 'fart', not 'thought'. Why would a thought have to come out of your ass?

yes, because Cruise fucking let loose all his frustration of having to deal with KIKES 24/7 for the previous 20 YEARS of his life... this was his chance to let it all out

Collateral is his best for me, but tropic thunder is a close second.

Cruise should play villains more often, the dude is getting too old for hero roles.

agreed, only thing where him playing himself detracted was in edge of tommorrow.. i couldn't believe he was this spineless office worker who became an officer.. he still had that charm towards the end, but i didn't believe the transition..

What the fuck was up with his shirt? he looked thic in a weird way, like he was wearing a bulletproof vest underneath.
>>
>>82683071
>>82683325

Wouldn't the joke be that he had such a specific and confident prediction? It's juxtaposed against the rest of the film where he never says anything of use or value or accuracy, but perhaps the real intent of the joke is that it's an allusion to his own experiences as a drug addict, perhaps he's gotten super fucked and passed out for 16 hours before.
