Just in case I haven't mentioned this before - Rosamund Pike is hot as the surface of the sun in that movie.

42. I think - old enough that I have to do the math.



It's just easy for me to suspend disbelief with Cruise at this point. I've watched him play assassins and action heroes for essentially a quarter century at this point. There's just very little that's a bridge too far with him for me. Though admittedly, this one was pushing it a bit.

Compare it to the visceral violence of the Amazon series and yeah, it's nowhere near as convincing. But again - when it's Cruise, I just shut up and eat my popcorn.

Not of huge significance, but apparently Season 2 is dropping a bit earlier than previously announced. First 3 episodes drop on 12/14 at 7pm EST now.

Cruise is such a good actor that even though he's on the Mt. Rushmore of Scientology, people still flock to all his movies. He's great in everything and charismatic as hell.

He did?

I thought that would be pretty big hollywood news. At least if I was his publicist I'd make it big news.

That said, she is so batshit crazy in Gone Girl that I can't seem to eliminate her being anything but a complete psycho.
