I can't say I've liked many of Tom Cruise's films but I generally don't like the sort of mindless action films he stars in like the Mission Impossible films.

That new film of his The Mummy just looks like more of the same sort of dross, light on storyline and originality and heavy on action and cool stunts.

He's good at what he does but I wouldn't call him a great actor though as he's pretty much a one trick pony always playing the good looking action hero.

Great actors like Daniel Day Lewis can play a variety of different roles and lose themselves in the character, with Tom Cruise you're always aware it's him.

Mindless action films like Mission Impossible? The first Mission Impossible requires a PHD to work out.

Also, I've never seen DDL do a fun action entertaining flick. Yet to see that variety. Guy Pearce for example did that once and nailed it (Lock Down). He has range and variety.

MI films are kickass.

Jack Nicholson as Colonel Jessop.

Tom Cruise was amazing in The Last Samurai

That's the only film I like him in.

Nah.

Nah.

Last Samurai was class.

Yeah. Good movie. Might have to get some sake and rewatch.

Watching the FA cup final and just saw an ad for insurance for getting a sore neck when binge watching TV shows and sitting/laying at weird angles...

Not the worst ad I've seen. This is from America, wait for the list of side effects.

People who claim they don't know their own phone number because they don't ring themselves

I don't remember my work one, don't take a lot of calls though. If someone asks, I usually do the old 'start a new email and look at what's in my signature' move.

That's an anti-ad.

I was actually on this drug for awhile last year but didn't have any major side affects at all, did nearly have a heart attack when I read the list though (Unfortunately it didn't help my back pain either)

I don't get why people take time to make good sport montages, and then s**t all over it with some god awful song dubbed over the top.

Just give me the live game commentary for gods sake, nobody wants to hear your rubbish music.

Check out our Geelong Face-Off opener.

Stores that ask if you still have the box.

Had to take something back because it wasn't fit for purpose. The counter staff asked if I had the box it came in. Apart from having to cut and rip the box apart just to get to the product, who keeps boxes?

Moreso the former , as well as other factors like privilege (school / teachers/resources /your cohort etc). I did subjects which required little in the way of rote-learning (to the point where it took me a while to get used to rote-learning when I did a uni degree which required more of it)

Or gaming systems to get bonus points for difficulty - typical example is a kid with maths talent doing double math physics chemistry and taking uni maths as an extra; the uni maths even gave us a heads up on what the upcoming assessment tasks for the other maths would be (we just had 2 hours to solve not 2 weeks); use the maths for a lot of the physics as well, So only really end up studying maths, a little physics and the chemistry. And get rewarded for "difficulty" compared to the humanities student who does english, single math, history, geography, a language and drama - 6 separate subjects with no overlap - and get penalised for "easy subjects"

Harden up - if you get a 50 the score won't be scaled

No need to cry just because you're s**t at maths.
