Better idea, skip the love story angle and insert more dogfighting scenes we went to see in the first place?

Except for the films he did as a teenager, I thought Tom Cruise always has a love interest. I haven't seen the last two Mission Impossible films, and so I don't know if Rebecca Ferguson is a love interest or just a colleague.

I don't remember a love interest in "War of the Worlds"

That is one problem with Cruise. While he always makes money for his partners, his flicks all follow fairly similar bones. The love interest brings in the ladies I guess, which makes more money. Usually I can do without that part of the film.

Kelly McGillis in 2019


Kelly, who became a lesbian ten years ago,c has pointed out that she was not invited back for the sequel.


Well that’s cool. She looks like a real person, someone who would be interesting to know.

Fun facts: She owned a brewpub and worked the bar when she was married to Fred Tillman. She then worked full time at Seabrook House Drug and Alcohol Rehab, until she moved to North Carolina. Sounds like she was more interested in making a difference in the world. Hats off!

Tom Cruise $10,122.7 million worldwide
Tom Hanks $10,198.0 million worldwide

While most movies today make more than half their money overseas, Tom Cruise has been that way almost from the start. Top Gun made 50% overseas, and with one exception every Tom Cruise movie since 1996 has made more than 50% overseas.

Movies that are popular overseas almost require action and a love interest

2018 72.2% Mission: Impossible - Fallout

1988 54.4% Cocktail
1986 50.0% Top Gun

Tom Hanks movies make a much smaller percentage overseas with exceptions like The Da Vinci Code and the sequal Angels and Demons and Inferno. Tom Hanks can make a movie like Sully, while it would be difficult for Tom Cruise.

Year Overseas Title
2019 56.9% Toy Story 4
2017 54.4% The Post

1988 24.2% * Big
1987 13.9% * Dragnet
1986 31.8% * The Money Pit

Tom Cruise has had only 5 out of 33 movies that made the majority of money domestically while
Tom Hanks had had 17 out of 36 movies that made the majority of money domestically.

I am not counting movies in the 80s that were only released domestically.

I get it, I just don't care for that portion. Was watching some John Wayne WWII flick with a roommate and complained. Roommate says let him get laid. I said time for that later, if he was not fooling around we could have won the war six months sooner for all the time he was wasting.

I do find the foreign box office amazing. Some of these countries think Americans are the biggest SOBs around, but love our films.

Nope, probably the opposite, None
in either Jack Reacher, Collateral,
Edge of Tomorrow, Mummy, Minority
Report, Valkyrie, Rain Man, and lots
of others. Did he ever have one in
any of the Mission movies?
