I don’t care what you people say. I like sci fi, and I have rarely seen a Tom Cruise movie I didn’t like.

I intend to see this.... should be fun.

Strange how things work...I’ve only seen one Tom Cruise film I DID like: Collateral. The rest were so much dreck to me. But I’m glad we don’t see eye-to-eye...it gives us things to talk about! LOL!

I like si-fi also, especially the old 1950s B&W versions. Even the hokey special effects I can live with.

Today’s si-fi are ok if they got a decent plot (BATTLE Los Angeles comes to mind), but not one driven by computer special effects (John Carter or the awful VAN HELSING).

Many are quick crap made for the sifi channel or quick DVD sale with awful special effects.

I’ll never forget the day back in 1976 when I sat down with my soda and popcorn to watch the Si-fi movie always shown on Saturday night TV.

What I got was...”LIVE FROM NEW YORK! IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE!”

Si fi had disappeared for NY crap. I was never the same since.

Cruise is like Mel Gibson - they may be borderline weirdos in person but put them either behind a camera or in front of one and they are two of the most talented people in the movie industry.
