It must be very difficult to portray emotion onscreen when your soul has been sucked out with a straw.

Tommy Girl as Willy Wonka. (No disrespect to Gene Wilder who was gold in the role, and no disrespect to Johnny Depp, although it's one of my least favorite of his roles).
Or maybe the head Oompa Loompa.

Imagine Tombolina as the Charles Bronson character, "harmonica" in "Once Upon A Time In The West" or as Oskar Matzerath in "Tin Drum".

Personally, I can totally see him as Douglas C. Needermeyer. Same officious attitude. Same mentality. No acting required!

I did not compare TC to Robert Duvall. I was simply stating that Robert Duvall is what a real actor is all about and TC is limited in his acting abilities but still happened to be the no. 1 star in hollywood. Take it easy!!

Put TC in the cockpit of a jet fighter with Josh Hartnett or one of those "High School Musical" shmucks and he'll be solid box office gold again.

I don't know about that. MI3 did not do too well at the Box Office and he had to go buy his own company after Redstone dumped him. I can see him getting shot down for some choice roles he might want to go after.

Tom Cruise's gonna need one mighty cocktail when he hears how his peers are pooh-poohing his latest performance…And we ain't talkin' about that Scientology vid.
