Paramount Pictures has officially released the documentary behind the movie Tropic Thunder, known as Rain of Madness, online for free on iTunes. It also includes a few surprises.

After a series of events that has really had a lot of people, myself included, thinking twice about chastising Cruise, he seems to be back on his game. This time, he’s eying a comic adaptation.

The film’s journey to theaters has been nothing short of a roller-coaster ride and it seems now that, finally, equilibrium has been restored. After some positive test screenings, MGM has decided to give the film a December 26 release date. However, the jury is still out on whether or not the film will be a shiny new bike or a lump of coal.

Some have suggested that this movie goes too far with inappropriate language, situations and characters, but unlike some movies, Tropic Thunder isn’t just going for shock value. At its heart, Tropic Thunder is a parody of its own industry and nothing more.

For reasons known only to him and his dietitian, Tom Cruise has decided to pass on Edwin A. Salt, the CIA spy thriller that has also seen at least four big name directors come and go in the past year. Instead, he will be starting a ‘Food Fight.’

Edwin A. Salt might undergo a sex change courtesy of Columbia Pictures and the mother of Brad Pitt’s children.

Fat, follicle-free, and funny, Tom Cruise may yet get back in favor with his formerly rabid fans in his role as Les Grossman, the overweight, foul-mouthed, bald studio head in Ben Stiller’s Tropic Thunder.

Tom Cruise is apparently in talks to reprise his role as Lt. Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell in a sequel that is 22 years in the making. That’s right, time to take another ride into the danger zone…

The Kurt Wimmer scripted spy thriller Edwin A. Salt may star Cruise as the titular CIA Agent who is accused of being a Russian sleeper agent. He would then, of course, put heel to asphalt and high tail it away from his pursuers while trying to clear his good name.

Valkyrie has been delayed twice, which is never a good sign. Add to this the fact that audiences pretty much laugh at the lead Nazi conspirator sounding like he comes from Syracuse rather than Germany, and the movie is looking to be a disaster.

Tom Cruise, who was most recently seen giving Adam Sandler a hysterical into at the MTV Movie Awards, is engaged in some reshoots for his forthcoming Nazi assassination flick Valkyrie.

If that headline doesn’t just scream “AWESOME” you’re a bit unfamiliar with what the definition of the word “awesome” is.

Tom Cruise’s next flop has been taken off the schedule. It was first postponed from this summer to next autumn. Now it’s not expected to open until 2009. Or perhaps not at all.

It appears that saving the human race from the Cylons by spreading the word of L. Ron Hubbard will have to wait — Tom Cruise needs to make another Mission: Impossible movie first.

Allow me to say this before you jump all over me like a pack of wild paparazzi chasing a drunk Lindsay Lohan out of a club: you probably haven’t seen Superhero Movie yet, and I have. The fact that you haven’t seen it makes your opinion completely erratic and irrelevant.

Say what you will about Tom Cruise, but he and partner Paula Wagner are making all the right moves with their United Artist Studios.

There’s a rumour floating about that Tom Cruise is all set to play Hugh Hefner in Brett Ratner’s upcoming biopic, which is leaving the gossip columnists shaking their heads.

Tom Cruise — yes, the Tom Cruise — has joined the production of Ben Stiller’s upcoming action comedy Tropic Thunder. In quite possibly the most entertaining way…

Well, Christmas didn’t come early after all at the Reject Report. Guess what Santa left under the tree this weekend for Tom Cruise and for Fred Claus? That’s right– nothing.

One way to make things more tolerable is to knock back a few while watching the movie. Who knows… maybe after a few beers, Robert Redford’s sermons might make more sense.

Like its predecessors, this film fails more out of boredom than message. Actually, a more appropriate title for Lions for Lambs could be Lamenting for Liberals.

This is Robert Redford’s seventh film as a director. Lions For Lambs is not his worst, but it is certainly not his best.

A very special welcome to all of you members of the Writers Guild of America, East and West, who are looking in on this web site in between the picketing.

Seeing Lions for Lambs this weekend? If so, you will catch this trailer. If not, you can just see it here. Is it just me or shouldn’t they all be speaking German?

It is coming. Oscar bait season is almost upon us. This year’s hot topics seem to be gang violence and the war on terror. The latest in the latter category is LIONS FOR LAMBS, which stars Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. The film is one of those parallel storyline flicks, similar to 2005’s CRASH, whereas it tells three separate stories that ultimately intertwine.
