      Les, you had me at SHUT THE FUCK UP!
      But seriously, because of Les Grossman, not only was I able to watch Oblivion, but I loved Oblivion, a movie that IMHO is great only to the extent that one appreciates that Tom Cruise's charisma/ screen presence carries the entire thing. Amen.

      DreamWorks should produce a spin-off feature film built around the Les Grossman character with Tom as the lead.
      Think of all the shenanigans that could be worked into a premise about a self-centered, ego maniac, narcissistic, unscrupulous, maniacal studio head; the script would practically write itself.
      If well written Tom would have a shoe-in for an Academy nomination, and perhaps garnering his first win.
      Fuck it.....I think I'll pitch the idea myself.

    I think the straight man often doesn't get enough credit in these scenes and Matthew plays it perfectly. I love his confused looks and half smirk and 'Hmph' face at the end, he plays it perfectly

      Myztik I know this is random but you said “Plays it perfectly” twice and the second time it’s exactly below the first. Fascinating.

      @vfxardist Why did you bring up Matthew in Texas Chainsaw Massacre? I'm sure Matthew wants us to forget about it.
      Also Tom Cruise has played lots of villains. Watch him in Interview with the Vampire and Collateral.
