I was never really a huge fan of Tom Cruise. Yes, I recognized that he is a talented actor, but I really felt that he was otherwise highly overrated. I was convinced that he was mostly hype and that at times he got caught up in his own hype. Do I have to really point to his famous antics on the couch while on "Oprah" or how during Red Carpet premieres for "Batman Begins" he made flashy entrances stealing the limelight from the film's star Christian Bale, and incurring the ire of both Warner Bros. and the head of Paramount studios. However, after seeing "Tropic Thunder" and "Knight and Day" I had to reprise my impressions of him. I am always impessed when an actor doesn't take himself too seriously and clearly he doesn't. I am looking forward to seeing the latest installment of the "Mission Impossible'' franchise and I really enjoyed the last installment which was directed by none other J.J. Abrams. That movie led to him and Tom Cruise co-producing the lastest movie in the franchise.
Syfy has announced that "Do You See What I See?," a special animated episode of "Eureka" is schedued to air on Tuesday, Dec 6. The animation in the episode will be broken up into different styles, including Anime, claymation, Looney Tunes style animation, and modern CG animation and is being produced by Curious Pictures. Given how charming and brilliant last year's "Eureka" Christmas episode "O Little Town" was, I am eagerly looking forward to this one.
On the subject of Christmas specials, check out the trailer for the latest Doctor Who Christmas Special " The Doctor, The Widow, and The Wardrobe." There is something really cool about Matt Smith as The Doctor attempting to save Christmas, as well as a few people lives.
