It isn't like he has dark hair and it should be blond. Or eye color. His entire body type is wrong wrong wrong. It shows no respect for the essence of the character. <br /><br />On the "books I hate list": Almost anything by James Patterson, Kane & Abel by Jeffrey Archer and Too Fat to Fish by Artie Lange (and those are just off the top of my head).Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-29457856766227837112012-09-17T12:49:24.720-04:002012-09-17T12:49:24.720-04:00So, I take it no one thing Cruise is a good choice...So, I take it no one thing Cruise is a good choice?

The best characters in the world are dull to me unless they do something.

Tom Cruise is the total opposite of everything that is Jack Reacher. I shan't be viewing that film. On a family vacation this summer, we had a good two hour discussion about who we would cast for that movie. I guess it is a moot point. So...I hated Fifty Shades of Grey. With every ounce of my being. I also hated A Reliable Wife. I'm sure there are more if I thought about it.Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.com
