I would say, that despite all the scientology stuff and dating Nicole Kidman for so long, Tom Cruise is still a good actor, with quite some good movies in his career. Mel Gibson, on the other side... he lost it when he started directing.
Hey, this is not the topic at hand. Ya know guys, if you're "cheating" on your loved ones, be careful to cheat on the Wii as well. Yes, that includes cheating in Wii Sports, hitting the other guy with the controller will do

I'm not concerned about Tom Cruise's acting ability (I've always found him rather one dimensional with litlle range, actually) - what put me over the edge was his attack on Brooke Shields and other of his remarks subsequentto that, which have led me to conclude that this is not someone who I am willing to continue to reward by paying to see him perform - this includes his movies when they come on tv. I won't watch them because I won't contribute to ratings that might encourage the channel to pay for more of his movies, driving his market value up, so to speak. He's a condescending, preening, wee little man who presumes to lecture other people on subjects he's not qualified to have an opinion on, let alone spout off about. Yes, I know, I could be describing myself, but I don't have a captive audience willing to hang on my every word. Mel Gibson - drunken, debauched, self righteous, anti-semite. Ugly. Nope, won't be contributing the Gibson family scholarship fund, either.
Now, back on topic: I like the way you think, Lashiec! Hitting the other guy with the controller - nice!
