Tom Cruise really is the man...im actually going back to see this again tomorrow.

I haven't done that in a while.

Tom really has separated himself from other A listers in terms of spectacle and commitment
He really is..... fallout and now this put him over the top..... remember people saying the rock was the number one star for a while :scust:

Do you have Tom Cruise over Arnold Schwarzenegger?
No wrong answer imo the thing with Arnold is he did it earlier in career answers then stopped but god damn if shyt wasn’t god tier action shyt he has done some till very earlier 2000s think collateral damage or t3 but those were meh imo
Then cameback later on but nothing big

Tom wasnt heavy dose action but he did some thru 5 decades consistently then really picked up once MI franchise started

Jackie Chan under appreciated as far as I’m concerned

Do I have Tom over Arnold I do cuz I like Tom movies more but Arnold peak movies are more iconic than toms action movies

purely off numbers, he still is the highest paid actor I think.
Rock is numbers but no classics that will stand the test of time is how I see it
He knows his lanes and excels at it I ain’t mad at that but I don’t see rock as a action star for not having more than one movie as a action classic and that’s just me

Tom’s practical stunts might put him ahead of Arnie for me though. Dude is HALO jumping, flying helicopters, jets doing stunt stuff in them, riding a motorcycle off a cliff and parachuting... it’s insane all on film

Cornfields, cows, & an one stoplight town
my dad and I saw it last night and we was talking bout oscars and shyt, and I had thought he won for Jerry McGuire, but shyt Cruise ain't win nothing yet...that sounds a little crazy.
He really should have won for Born On the 4th but he was up against Daniel Day-Lewis and Robin Williams, so that was a tough year.
