So will he wear 8 inch lifts or is he getting leg extension surgery? Just think how tall a GT40 will look next to him!

Mr. Cruise is not exactly "box office magic" nowadays...............

Unfortunately, sounds like we'll have to endure 2 hours of Tom Cruise to enjoy the movie.
Why Tom Cruise? I don't see the draw, in fact, I see it turning away more people.

Loved the book and looking forward to the movie. But Tom Cruise really? I think Josh Brolin would be a much better choice.

+100 on this. The casting was very well done in my mind for Rush with respect to the physical attributes of real people vs the actors. With a little movie-magic enhancement, Josh Brolin could look like a dead ringer for CS in the time period this movie is to take place.

+2 for Brolin, if you saw him in "No Country for Old Men" then you would see he plays the perfect Texan. Lets start a campaign to DUMP CRUSE

I disagree. He never goes anywhere without his box:



In the '80s I saw him in a celebrity race at Bryar Motorsports Park (now NH Motor Speedway) Sure enough, when it came time to take pictures, one of his assistants dragged out the box.

I'm sure he gets more box then the rest of us.

I dunno, it's not like I'm a big fan, but I think he's a good actor and could do a nice job.
