A Flash In The Pan

Tom Cruise has been on a whirlwind tour spanning the globe to promote his new movie Mission: Impossible III, not to mention hitting every media outlet from talk shows to MTV. But at the end of the day, his new action packed multi-million dollar film will be talked about less than the ultra-sound machine he purchased for his home to see his unborn child. I guess that saving the world just doesn't hold a candle to celebrity babies ... let's just hope the kid doesn't get Dad's teeth, you know the ones that appeared in the eighties but then he miraculously "outgrew". Paramount Pictures is spending a fortune shuttling Cruise all over the world, when all they really needed to do was let him go back to Oprah, and stand on her couch again ... that stint was talked about for months, were as MI:III will be forgotten about faster than the Macarena. The people in the promotions departments of motion pictures just don't get it, reality t.v. (especially stars) sells ... not being handed a free popcorn and soda.
