I also am puzzled and perplexed by all the hostility shown on FR toward Cruise. Obviously he's a heterosexual male, obviously he's a fine actor, better than folks give him credit for (ever seen " War of the Worlds"? Or "Tropical Thunder"? No? Didn't think so, Cruise haters.), and obviously he leans toward self reliance and moxy, which in my definition is an essentially "conservative" state of mind.
Yeah, he's a Scientologist, which is pretty bad, but he also had the honesty and guts to call out ol' uber-liberal Drew Barrymore for thinking prescription drugs were the solutions to depression and mental "issues," rather than plain ol' standing up to your demons and facing them down with what the Almighty gave you. The guy's got a lot of sand and takes politically incorrect positions with confident indifference.
Tom Cruise is okay in my book.
Ed Harris and Tom Hanks are very fine actors. But they are both so far held in contempt in my book for their personal corrupt political ideology of championing collectivism, that any new movies they make, I pointedly avoid.
