Well, seeing as how Suri was only being conceived - allegedly - at the time MI3 was filming, I guess Jonathon was deeply inspired by Tom's parenting skills during the promotional tour during her infancy. Right.

Look, it's pretty common policy for everyone in the film industry to make nice with everyone else. That's why Tom bashing Brooke Shields for no good reason was so bizarre. Also, JRM might have been asked very specific questions - "How was it working with someone like Tom Cruise? Would you like a career like his?!" - that led to his Tom-centric answers.

Hiya smarr! Really nice to see you here!!

I completely agree with our statement. I'm sure JRM was asked some very leading questions (not that that will stop the fan freaks from assuming JRM and CTC are not BFF's image) that led to those responses during the film promotion. As a matter of fact, I found this on his fansite. This was on the subject of Cruise, image and security:

But his career has slowed down at the moment because the whole world thinks he's crazy. Is he different in reality?
How should I know?

You worked with him.
While shooting "Mission Impossible III" I was on set with him for two months - we haven't talked more than 10 minutes.

In my opinion, that shows how isolated Cruise makes himself even on a set with other actors. I'm sure he's completely surrounded by his own "people" (read: Co$ minders and sycophants).

By the way. I've never heard a word about JRM showing any interest in the Co$.

Oh....and on the subject of JRM in general. I would SO do him too! Those lips. Those eyes. Mmmmmm. image
