If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

A little known fact is that in the original screenplay, Pan's Labyrinth was Pan's FLAByrinth. Hmmmmmmm...glad they changed it.

Uhm,
His second link..
"Leno inquired if Cruise would ever consider taking a role on a Broadway stage, Cruise gave the talk show host a very positive answer, "Yes, I do movies and everything, but I wouldn't say no to Broadway. I'd like to do a musical"."
Could you sound more condescending, Ed?

And I know what his solo would be if he did a musical
"Jump on the couch 'til the springs pop out
Act a fool and scream and shout"
#15re: Tom Cruise Wants to Do a Broadway Musical
Posted: 12/13/08 at 12:11amI saw the interview. Seemed to me he was saying he wouldn't do Broadway but he would do a musical. As in a film musical.

Posted: 12/13/08 at 8:09amI heard he's going to play Roger in the 2010 Rent revival. You're never too old to play that part.

Exactly. From all sources involved (the media, press, etc.)... he was implying a movie musical -- NOT the Broadway stage.
Listen to his comments again.

If he's got the money, Broadway's got the time.

What about "Scientology: The Musical?"
He could win a Tony as Xenu.

Posted: 12/13/08 at 11:14amCan he sing at all? Maybe he mentions that in the video, but I refuse to watch it to find out.

Posted: 12/13/08 at 1:50pmThey drummed you out of Hollywood....so you come crawling to Broadway. Well, Broadway doesn't go for thetans and Xenu.

Posted: 12/13/08 at 2:14pmI didn't care about Tom Cruise. I was more excited about Leno talking what a big Broadway fan he is. "Broadway IS MY LIFE!!"
#23re: Tom Cruise Wants to Do a Broadway Musical
Posted: 12/13/08 at 5:02pmI can't think of any musical worth filming that Cruise would be appropriate for.
