1. the only thing that could make it better was if Tyler Perry presented it.

2. Tom Cruise just wanted to dress up in a Nazi uniform.
His nipples are rock hard in that picture.

4. I wish someone else was starring in it, because it looks really good
I'm a huge WWII buff.

I may have to just make believe it's Hugh Jackman when I go see it.

10. Yes and he's a British actor who has been in very few films.
The picture is from the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice in which he played Mr. Collins.

13. He did a great job of playing an excessively gross Mr. Collins, so why not.

14. Perhaps a redo of Miracle on 34th Street?
John Travolta as Kringle, directed by Michael Bay

(off topic trivia: Where's the Iron Cross? As memory serves, Stauffenberg had two. Plus that's a field uniform belt. When the director can't even get that much right, odds are the film is a howling, shedding bowser.)

22. my son wants to go see that

I am sorry, but if Tom is fishing for an Oscar, he should know that 1.) you need to play a real bad guy, and 2.) you need to be Ralph Fiennes to get one for this kind of role. I mean, c'mon, an eye-patch? ( I know this is based on a true story, but on Tom it just looks hokey.)


As far as I can see, Tom was only good in Minority Report.



I might just take him to see The Boy in the Striped Pajamas instead.

29. I hear Peter Jackson found an unpublished short story followup to Lord of the Rings.
The movie will clock in at just under 62 hours.

31. The Littlest Nazi
Ever since his adventure on the couch I have found it impossible to take this man seriously. I see him as a little boy playing dressup.
