TOM CRUISE IN DUBAI

Cruise is currently filming Brad Bird's "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol," and a major scene takes place in Dubai, with Cruise's character rappelling up and down the Burj Kahlifa, the world's tallest building. Photos of Cruise doing this particularly impressive stunt have already surfaced, but tourist Daniel Matthew, visiting the Burj Kahlifa, may have taken the best one. While looking out the window, Matthew watched as Cruise rappelled right past him. He even waved.
Cruise is clearly in his Ethan Hunt character, focused, but he takes a brief moment to smile and wave at Matthew before getting back down to whatever spy business Hunt was up to. (To be fair, Cruise might be concentrating on the fact that he's, you know, 1,500 feet in the air.) For all Cruise's eccentricities, the man has never been accused of being aloof toward his fans. Now we know that's true even when he's hanging off the side of the world's tallest skyscraper. That's crazy in a pretty awesome way.
I don't care what anyone says Tom Cruise is awesome.

WHICH MOVIES ARE YOU GOING TO SEE THIS WEEKEND; GROWN UPS, KNIGHT AND DAY

GROWN UPS

KNIGHT AND DAY

Only two movies opening this weekend. I think the power of Toy Story will defeat Tom Cruise this weekend but not bu much perhaps. Those Pixar films are hard to compete with.

LES GROSSMAN TO GET HIS OWN MOVIE

My new hero Les Grossman as played by tom Cruise may soon reprise the role in his very own spin-off movie. After taking the stage as Grossman for a show-stealing performance alongside Jennifer Lopez, Cruise told Marc Malkin at E! Online that he and his producing partners are “working on” the movie right now.
I hope this is true. I watched tropic Thunder when it first came out and thought it was hilarious. He almost stole the show from Robert Downy Jr, playing the black character. I will definitely check this out. Hopefully the story is as good as the character. If you want to see what started it all click the jump for the video.

TOM CRUISE INJURED IN MOTOCYCLE CRASH

TOM CRUISE should have been riding his bike like this. He was slightly hurt when he tried to avoid a car. Cruise had to veer his red Ducati bike after an SUV ran a stop sign, causing the bike to spin out, according to a report in HollywoodLife.com.
It was like a scene from 'Mission Impossible,' a witness told the Web site.

The superstar struggled to his feet and appeared to be limping slightly as five people ran to his aid.
