Tom Cruise says he was “arrogant” in TV interview with Matt Lauer in 2005. Well, duh. Now that studios have mega bucks riding on Cruise’s new movie, Valkyrie, they’re trying to “soften” up his image. The cover of People Magazine this week is Tom Cruise: “The truth about my family”. I wonder what truth the movie studios are trying to spin now. It most certainly isn’t the truth.

The film is pretty pricey and UA has a lot riding on it. Per Wikipedia, “Since United Artists reported that the film cost $75 million to make and that $60 million would be spent on marketing, the studio faces high financial stakes. The film also tests the determination of its distributor Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and the mettle of Cruise as a superstar.”

Tom, I’m not buying it.
