Now you’re describing Cocktail.

This is basically the entire reason the FDA was created. A 5 lb sack of flour used to contain at least a pound of gypsum and that wasn’t the worst of it. Milk used formaldehyde as a preservative and meat used Borax.

The biggest character departure for him, imo, was his appearance in Tropic Thunder. It remains the only movie I’ve seen him in where I didn’t know it was him--everything else has been “oh, look, it’s Tom Cruise as Tom Cruise playing ____ in ____.”

COM he definitely learned some humility; it’s a good performance. But he starts and ends as a prodigy. But yeah, by late 80s you had Rain Man and Born on the Fourth of July. After that you had Thunder, Far and Away, The Firm and A Few Good Men (all movies I mention) but that was pretty much it for the Top “X”…

I didn’t crib Ebert on this, but always had the same thought about early Cruise movies: Top _______

It definitely is. I like it far more than Top Gun. 

My husband uses that for his texts almost exclusively. Used to drive me nuts, because it means my own name is persistently misspelled, but now I just tease him about it every time there is a particularly hilarious error.  And there are a LOT.

Cobain would fit that already, no? For Millennials it’s probably Chester Bennington.

That’s why I only do Gummies, because that smell is horrendous! worse than cigarette smoke to me.

In short, no.

until those lawsuits come out of their own retirement funds nothing will change. thats just other peoples money they are spending.

The penalty for poor driving is a fine, not three days of wrongful imprisonment.

Hair Spray is another as well as the upcoming Mean Girls movie.

There’s an awesome episode of 99% invisible about a police department in California that changed their uniforms and attitudes (and how much the cops HATED it) https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-blazer-experiment/

And I think about this episode every time I hear about cops abusing power, closing ranks and…

I have said this for years, it is all about the training.  

The roid raging Barney Fifes need an Andy to take away their bullets until the situation calls for it and then to only give them one at a time.

Naughty, about a woman who decides that the only way to win a custody battle against her “gaslighting trash-bag ex” is to track down Santa Claus and have him testify on her behalf.

Should be the first thing you do before potentially racing through intersections and/or weaving through cars. It’s flipping a switch.

“CosMc’s is a small-format concept with all the DNA of McDonald’s but its own unique personality,”

A good pizza takes a lot of labor too. Making dough and sauce from scratch takes time, not all of it is inactive. That person’s time is worth money, especially if they are good at it.  Some places make their own sausage or mozzarella. Sure, you can cut corners. That’s how Dominos and other chains do it. But you won’t…
