I pray they are wrong

Tom Cruise a box office draw again?

Was Tom Cruise ever an actual box office draw? Would any of his movies have bombed if someone else had starred in them?

Well, now they're reporting that he's a "draw" again. The latest "Mission Impossible" movie is a hit, but, again, it's hard to imagine that he's the reason.

He was ranked as the celebrity people would least want to be friends with. But is it wrong to hate him?

There was his obnoxious interview with Matt Lauer. Cruise is a dyslexic high school drop out, but he claimed that "You don't know the history of psychiatry---I do," and told Lauer, "You're glib. You don't even know what ritalin is," and "You--you're here on the Today Show and to talk about it in a way of saying 'Well, isn't it okay' and being reasonable about it when you don't know and I do."

This from someone who says that he didn't know how a dictionary worked until the "Church" of Scientology revealed this "technology" to him.

"I'm passionate about learning. I'm passionate about life, Matt."

There was the business on Oprah---he was jumping all over the set unable to contain his love for his new girlfriend even though he was 46, had been married twice and had two children.

There was his fake, mirthless cackling on that idiotic Scientology video that made its way onto YouTube.

He plays the same unappealing character in every movie. He's too old, but he'd be perfect as a boyfriend on Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
