MILK robbed of a Golden Globe nod.
http://www.goldenglobes.org/news/id/104

At least Sean Penn was nominated.

Oh and Tommy Cruise blew someone and got a nomination for some shitty movie he did. I saw the press conference and when his name was read the press laughed LOUDLY! Even the lady reading the nominees giggled.

He makes me fucking sick. I'm sure he's buying up air time to whore himself out about this.

3. Those fucking "Valkyire" trailers have been running ad nauseum here on tv...
It is going to be a horrible movie. Germany did not allow him to film in the real locations, because of his being a part of a dangerous cult and all. Effing scientologists. The whole lot's crazy.

10. the only good thing I've seen him in was Minority Report


and maybe the film with Hoffman as an autistic man... but usually Cruise seems to be playing himself. I think he's a terrible actor. His ex is much, much better.

11. I've read funny stories about it.
In a couple of preview screenings people actually laugh at La Cruise trying to act like a Nazi.

He looks like a uniform fetish queen.

12. maybe he ought to pick some roles that aren't heroes, or something
totally against type. Well, maybe he thought an "ethical" Nazi would be against type...


Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson seem to have the market cornered on Oscar- worthy good and bad guys...

17. As much as it pains me to admit it, yes, he was.
I detest Cruise, but he was great in that part.

15. They should've thrown some Nazis into the Milk script.
It would've been a slam dunk for the Academy

22. Cruise was not nominated for the Hilter movie.
He was nominated for a cameo role he did in Tropic Thunder but he was suppose to be absolutely amazing as an asshole studio exec.

16. "Milk" did NOT get a Golden Globe nomination?
Seriously, what the fucking fuck? "Milk" is easily one of the best films of the year.

:grr:

18. I should hope not!
MLK died at the hands of a sniper in 1968 - it would be in dreadfully poor taste to nominate him for a Golden Globe, or any entertainment award for that matter.

21. Well personally I think it's gonna be Penn vs. Rourke for the Globe
As for Tom Cruise, I heard he was absolutely sublime in the Tropic Thunder movie. I'll hold my reserve for when I rent the movie, which I do plan to do. I heard it's funny as hell.

24. Tom Cruise is a Nazi.
Edited on Thu Dec-11-08 03:23 PM by Jamastiene
:yoiks:

:hide:

The only thing he was ever good in was Risky Business and that was just the air guitar scene because it is fun to do that when you are home alone. Other than that, he's a total nut bag. I can't stand him and his perfect teeth and couch bouncing judgmental anti Brooke Shields shit. I'd like to see someone pie his ass just for dissing Brooke Shields. Never mind the Scientology and monkey like bouncing on a couch because he finally found a woman willing to have his offspring and put up with his nonsensical ass. OMG, I hate him!
