Picks mostly pretentious projects...


For the "art". Like Sean Penn. Pretentious.
Do a blockbuster, dude. Loosen-up.
Look at Tom Cruise's career and movie choices. He's WAY cooler than you.

Who considers Tom Cruise to be cool?

reply

He was in War of the Worlds.

Anyway, I'd rather see him in interesting projects rather than bland, cookie cutter superhero or YA movies that seem to count as modern "blockbusters."

It pains me to see fantastic actors like Ben Kingsley, Donald Sutherland, or Philip Seymour Hoffman (Rip) wastes in these turgid paycheck movies. They look bored out of their minds reciting this banal dialogue in those charisma-less films that are for some reason popular. I would not wish that fate to befall Robbins.

Tom Cruise never made an Altman film.

Talk about pretentious, Altman is the King of Pretention.

Sorry. I have followed that man's career since i discovered him in 1989. Maybe you just don't get Altman. Not everybody does.
