Top Gun 2 will be Tom Cruise Vs. Drones

Top Gun is an American classic. The Tom Cruise feature had bromance, jets, motorcycles, passionate kisses, heartbreak and volleyball. Sadly the sequel sounds nothing like the original — it’s basically Tom Cruise versus the machine. And it sounds kind of terrible. In an interview with the Huffington Post mega producer Jerry Bruckheimer reveals the new…

DARPA Got a New Tagline (and Tom Cruise Helped)

Any day is a good when the government’s most futuristic R&D lab starts cavorting around Twitter with Scientology superstars. And this is one of those days.

The Sky Tower was conceived by Oblivion’s director, Joseph Kosinski, during very early treatments of the movie. Kosinski…

Oblivion has its meh moments, but one hell of a satisfying payoff

With its cool, liquidy visuals and CGI-esque Tom Cruise as its lead, Oblivion has all the hallmarks of a summer action movie. But it’s not. This is a flick that aspires to be a psychological thriller — and occasionally, it succeeds quite well. Cruise is generically rugged and fearless as Jack Harper, a technician assigned…
