    [face_laugh] I noticed that too. Thankfully, though, I'd seen Top Gun enough times when I was an innocent little kids, where such thoughts were far from my mind, so i'm able to bury any notice of sexual tension between the 2 under years of childhood innocence. Don't ever speak of this again, lest such thoughts re-emerge.

    Wow, it's a good thing this announcement came out before the War of the Worlds is released. What brilliant timing!

    Publicity stunts make me sick.

    all Top Gun and Tom Cruise stuff this makes me think of is the bit of dialog by Quentin Tarantino in the film sleep with me.

    I bleeped the bad words, if I miss any sorry about that.

    Enjoy:

    Sid: You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of the greatest (Beep) scripts ever written in the history of Hollywood is? Top Gun.

    Duane: Oh, come on.

    Sid: Top Gun is (Beep) great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a story about a bunch of fighter pilots.

    Duane: It's about a bunch of guys waving their (beep) around.

    Sid: It is a story about a man's struggle with his own homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man. You've got Maverick, all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the (Beep) line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew. They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.

    Duane: What about Kelly McGillis?

    Sid: Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no, no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole movie... He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's takin' a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the (beep), what the (beep) is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him back from the gay way, so I'll do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it. Okay, now let me just ask you - I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and everything. Now, she just got divorced, right? All right, but the REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this gay fighting(beep) force, all right? And they're beating the Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they (beep) land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last (beep) line that they have together? They're all hugging and kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! (beep)' A, man!

    Who knows, maybe she actually believes he's not gay?

    Nah, publicity stunt.

    I don't like the Tom-Cruise-is-gay jokes. He's a nice guy and a good actor, and I think it's going a bit far. It's okay in a "Haha, funny" way, but I refrain from it.

    As for the relationship looking like a publicity stunt...it does sort of have that tinge, but does Cruise ( not to mention Spielberg ) really need that sort of box-office boost? No, I don't think so.

    I'm just wondering what a Scientology wedding is like. Do both the bride and groom pay $500,000 to read bad sci-fi in the hopes that they can gain superhuman abilities and free themselves from the chains of the evil alien Xenu?

    Or is the marriage normal, but afterwards the husband creates a farcical cult, cheats on his wife, and eventually has the wife thrown in jail for the same crimes he committed?

    This is such an obvious publicity stunt it is sickening. However, it will benefit an unwitting Nicole too, she has a movie opening also.

    Tom Cruise is one of the two guys I'll forgive for being under six feet tall. Ewan is the other... :D

    I hope he and Katie are going to be really happy together... :)

    Nope, he's not a nice guy. Did you hear the comments he made about Brooke Shields? He's a total jerk.

    It's also my theory that he's the one who started the rumors that Nicole's miscarriage was Ewan McGregor's.

    Not nice? But -- but he's personally -- personally -- helped hundreds of people get off drugs. Really.

    No foolin'.

    But I'm not joking. I'm not making fun of him for being gay. I'm making fun of him for pretending to be straight for so long.

    The man is gay. I seriously can't understand why anyone would believe that he is straight.

    He's a moronic tool, and a vastly overrated actor.

    To each his own, I guess.

    I just don't see why someone would get so up in arms about Tom Cruise, when there's much bigger a**holes elsewhere throughout Hollywood.
