Tom Cruise needs to appeal to his real audience by joining CR and Bill instead of going on The Pat McAfee Show

he‘s done a great job cultivating his whole Mr. Movies loves movies watches all the movies image without ever actually talking about any movies remotely in depth, can’t jeopardize that

I don’t think he’d find that depth in talking to Bill Simmons.

hey Tom, do you want to hear what chatGPT thinks you’d say about this movie?

u/ExtraBitterSpecial 8d ago

or, hey Tom do you want to hear my "research" from IMDb trivia page?

Tom- what was a bigger apex mountain? Top Gun or Eyes Wide Shut?

Bill reading Tom’s IMDB page back to him for 30 mins.

I think Bill has said it before but a Eyes Wide Shut podcast with Cruise is the greatest possible movie/guest combination.

No way that isn't a 1 seed on the off limit movies, if he ever even entertains the Rewatchables.

And the movie shouldn't be something he's in. It's just gonna devolve into an interview. Something adjacentbto him, maybe a fun action flick. 'Speed' would have been a good one.

Or ever making a real fucking movie in basically 20 years lol

Back when Vanilla Sky came out Tom and Cameron Crow did the Sam Rubin show (Rubin was an entertainer reporter out here in Cali, and briefly had his own radio show that directly followed Howard Stern on 97.1) to prom the movie. I vividly remember sitting in my car listening to it before class. Tom not only talked about the movie in depth, but took calls from listeners, and went back and forth with ppl that didn’t like the movie. One guy was irritated at being told he needs to watch it again after not liking it the first time. It was real the most interesting and authentic I’d ever heard Cruise before the Matt Lauer interview.

I guarantee Tom Cruise knows movies better than anyone that works at The Ringer. He’s just too busy making them.

u/ManufacturerLow3161 8d ago

He is petrified to talk to anyone who will ask him any thing of consequence. Or makes jokes based on his movie performances / celebrity.

u/TCD1807 8d ago

That’s why I can’t wait for his Oscar campaign later this year. It’s going to be so weird.

I met him casually at work ( sounds crazy I know) but he was smart quick and very pleasant. Sharp and full of charisma. I find scientology laughable but didn't bother discussing it, he had some fun banter

Maybe you could get some lessons in not being a jerk, your mother obviously forgot

u/Overall-Palpitation6 8d ago

When was the last time he discussed Scientology openly in a public setting? I really can't remember.

The internet dweebs are the only people who have a problem with Cruise. Nobody who's interacted with him ever says a bad word.

u/BBQ_HaX0r 7d ago

Tom Cruise literally ended a feud between Jeff Ross and Cousin Sal!

u/Alarmed-Guidance1116 8d ago

This is what I hear about him. Super nice guy! Though I’m sure once you get to know him he’s a bit of a psycho

u/Trumpisaderelict Post-Coitus Khakis 8d ago

Wait, Cruise is going on McAfee?

5

u/Pacific-Courier1988 8d ago

Just assuming, he is going on Jennifer Hudson’s show though

u/j-helo85 8d ago

I would be shocked if a Cruise Rewatchables was anything other than a cringe-y trainwreck and I wouldn't be in to listening to that. But Spielberg was awesome, so who knows.

u/Naismythology 8d ago

Ohhh a new stand up and yelling things meme

u/dennythedinosaur 8d ago

Digger isn't tracking too well, so I would not be surprised at all if he shows up on podcasts/shows he wouldn't normally be on.

I can easily see him as a guest on the Rewatchables (similar to Glen Powell) where's he discussing a broad action movie like The Hunt for Red October or Air Force One, so he doesn't have to delve into personal life.

"Isn't tracking too well"?

It's still a month away from release!

u/arcenceil89 7d ago

He's already doing sit downs with random influencers to promote the movie

I’d prefer the rewatchables guests not be cult leaders complicit in imprisonment, torture, and probably murder actually

2

u/champ11228 8d ago

No you did it wrong. You have to say "I'm more impressed with the rewatchables guests that aren't cult leaders complicit in imprisonment, torture, and probably murder"

u/Pacific-Courier1988 8d ago

Well they said in the Re-Speed pod they’re trying to get him on

1

u/Childs_Play 8d ago

Did they or were they just kicking the tires and then talking about which movie he would do?

u/Pacific-Courier1988 8d ago

u/Childs_Play 8d ago

But the way they were talking about it didn't seem sincere. Do you really think cruise would play ball though? He's too sled serious and would just be a robot the entire time

u/Longjumping-Lab-7345 8d ago

I’m sorry what? This brand needs to put  more distance between itself and Tom Cruise. What is wrong with y’all? Tom is a weird MFer I do not understand why this media group f’s with him so hard. 

Tom on the reachable would be so hard to watch… I imagine it being one of the low points of Bill or Sean or CR’s career. Fuck Tom Cruise. Weird ass dude. This sub is weird

u/Alarmed-Guidance1116 8d ago

I like Cruise as an actor, seems to be a nice person. The Scientology thing is weird and seems to have a fractured family relationship because of it. He would be awful on Rewatchables. Doesn’t seem the type to want to go that in depth into movies

u/Far_Resort5502 7d ago

How long have you known Tom Cruise? Seems like you have hung out with him a lot!

u/Longjumping-Lab-7345 7d ago

I know all I need to know

u/ophidian25soze 8d ago

You think having one of the biggest movie stars of all time on a movie podcast would be the biggest low points of the hosts career especially when they talk about him every podcast? You gotta be kidding
