Is Angelina The Next Tom Cruise?

I love Angie but stars gets replaced all the time.

Why would anyone want to be an action hero? All of those movies are the same. Hero totes gun, shoots people, rattles off stupid one liners, wins. The end. Muchness of the sameness.

Looks like Angie's going to settle into the most boring role in Hollywood. Action Hero. Also, how is making movies for sixteen year old boys breaking new ground? So, now we have a chick making movies for sixteen year old boys. Not what I would call feminism, but whatever. Thanks, but no thanks.

And what person in the their right mind wants to be the next Tom Cruise?Arrogant person who lives on another planet and is constantly building themselves up with smug self-importance. Wait, Angie's actually perfect for that. Congrats, Angie. You're the new Tom Cruise. Pat yourself on the back. I know, you do that anyway, but do it again.

I don't know how she keeps getting movie parts - she's a lousy actress. Oh wait, I forgot, her alleged good looks - lol

"muchness of the sameness" - that's funny

Nothing else has worked for her but action because she's a lackluster actress. Despite her bizarre claims of retirement and her faux concern over world poverty, she seems to be all about the $$$. Whoever's paying actors like her and Pitt over the top money and for subpar performances seems out of touch. They are not box office slam dunks. Just hire good performers with a good story and movies will rock. The age of the movie star is over, other than the rare exception.

There's enough gun toting in the world without watching it on screen. Sounds perfect for Jolie, although I couldn't care less who plays the part. I like comedies.

Have to admit, I might have to watch it, with Russel Crowe, Liev Schrieber, or maybe John Travolta were in it. Don't think I could stomach Jolie or Cruise.

Female action heroes rock. Unfortunately Jolie is not a good actress, but there needs to be more women in those roles. And not with the ridic body padding like they used on her in Tomb Raider. Linda Hamilton in Terminator was awesome

Puh-leeze

Crowe and Travolta are bloated, farty old men. Liev Schrieber is no action hero or leading man

Tom Cruise pretty much owns the world.. he no longer needs to be an action hero. BUT I would prefer Angie anyday.

Lackluster is a good way to describe her. She's either toting a gun or screaming for two hours (Where's my child! Where's my husband!)

Just because the press can't get enough of her does not mean she is all that interesting. The press can't get enough of the Kardashian Famly either. Someone please make her go away. And please take the kardashinas and Mr. Cruise and Mr. Pitt with you, honey.

ANGIE GIRL GO AHEAD, KICK ALL THEIR ASSES, THOSE BAD COMMENTS ARE FROM AND OUT OF WORK ACTRESS THAT IS JEALOUS, WE THE PUBLIC SAYS GO AHEAD, YOU HAVE THE TALENT, LOOKS, SMARTS, THE WHOLE PACKAGE, YOU CAN WEAR MANY HATS, NOT LIKE ALL THOSE LAZY DIRED BI...CHES, LIKE HALLE BERRY, DOING THAT SAME OLD S...T, POOR MOUTHING, CRYING ALL THE DAM TIME, TALKING ABOUT COLOR, MENTAL CASE, SO WE VOTE FOR ANGIE, LOVE YOUR KIDS, BRAD IS HOT, NOT A SOFT WEMP LIKE MOST HOLLYWOOD MEN, REMEMBER ANGI, THOSE OLD BI..CH IS JUST JEALOUS, GO GIRL, YOU ROCK, FLY THAT AIRPLANE

Cruise and Jolie both have dead, vacant eyes in those pix. Yes you can be dead and vacant and still be a star (See Paris Hilton). All you need is a good PR team. And yes, Jolie does have a PR team (s) despite claims to the contrary. You don't actually think Jolie arranges all of her interviews and all of those press conferences touting her 'charity' work all by herself do you?

I always love it when the Brangeloonies come out screaming in ALL CAPS. And then can't even put a sentence together correctly. I guess that why they call them brange-LOONIES.

Halle Berry is hot. Her man is hot. Their kid is cute. They are low-key and humble and never sold pictures of their kid to People Mag for PR. They're all good in my book. And so is Halle's Academy Award. She was the first black woman to win a lead Actress oscar so if she wants to talk about color I'm all for it.

Btw, 7:18 All Angie does in Mighty Heart and Changleing is cry and scream for two hours. Both are basically the same movie "Where's my child? Where's my husband? Wah, wah, wah, Yada yada yada.

Hey 7:18 Didn't Jolie win an Oscar for playing a mental case who screamed and cried for two hours?

Also, please learn how to put an actual sentence together. You sound like a nutcase yourself.

Jolie and Cruise are smug, self-righteous mega jerks who need to go away.

Cruise and Jolie turned their kids into PR Prostitots. They'll get no love from me.

Ah lots of menopousal woman posting here too much anger.. what's up? It's not Angelina's fault that producers are lining on her doors to ger her for their next movie. As for her acting ability hmm let see 2 Golden Globe, 3 SAG Award, 1 Oscar not bad for a lackluster actress bwahahhahah!!

As for the kids hello halle Berry kid's you can see almost everyday, so does Suri Cruise and Violet Affleck haters got no problem with that only Angelina's kids which we seldom see. And yes Angelina got no PR people she ony got her manager. So haters stop posting LIES!!

Without Jon Voight & lots of plastic surgery.AJ would be working at Wal-mart vrs. hoarding ugly kids.

7:18 you are f*cking crazy & obsessed with someone who doesn't even know or CARE! that you exist. idiot.

I agree with 8:12PM

At least Angie cares about the state of the world.. I don't care what anyone says. I RESPECT at least that much about her.

We love Angelina!

Tom doesn't look the same after his last face lift.

I like "Changeling" and I like"The Last Samuri" and also Liev Schrieber is a cool Sabertooth. Most people enjoy action movies and it's good to see new faces all the time. It's o.k to see a character played by different actors. Spiderman is getting sickning, someone else should play the part, just like the Incredible Hulk is better than the first hulk and the T,V, Hulk. That's progress. There should be another "Battlefield Earth", I liked the first one. Tom Cruise can be a hero in a second one, since he believes in that mumbo jumbo.

Ironman was a surprise. It had a solid script with unexpected humor.

Pug face

Angelina got to where she is with her own talent and professionalism her father got nothing to do with that.. as for plastic surgery hmmmm it's only jealous people who spread that lies about Angelina if you see her pictures starting as a model at age 16 she still look the same as she is now only older.. name the doctor who done her face or STFU!!

Ummm, mind control, yes.

Who is the idiot who keeps bringing up Halle Berry and her cross eyed kid in almost every post?

That said, Jolie is a crummy actress and even more pathetic so-called action figure. My granny is more of an action hero than Jolie.

this is such a lame topic. I guess it was a slow news day or Brad told you to write this for him because he did something stupid again and wants all eyes on Angelina instead of on him. What a set up, brad and his paid for blog X17.

Looks like scientology posters are here in droves to protect their Alien leader. Angelina is ten times the actor Tom Cruise is. Funnny how it's not even Brad VS tom... Tommy girl is put up against a woman.

call angie and they all go nuts. lol angie plays action and drama roles. She won one oscar and onother nomination for drama roles. People forget she is a versalate actress. Tom cruise made his name playing action. He just wants to lighten up his image so he go for action/comedy this time.

7:31 she nominated for her role in Changeling that means she was outstanding, A mighty heart she got nominated for sags and everyother award oscar snub her but still she was great... and Gia she won oscar. whatever you want to call This roles , they are not action roles they are D R A M A.Angie is a good actress. She has a range . When it comes to her it is always different. Tom was overrated when he did one action after another, he made his money like that.. he is not much now, he wants to gain female fans that is why he is doing romantic comedies . women dislike him.

===========
bwahahahha Totally Agree w/ YOU

Angelina is a good action star as well as Drama and a bit of comedy. Changeling or Merian Pearl she didn't scream for two hours, hear say is how rumors are made. Maybe that type of drama isn't your cup of tea but let's see a mother just pout after her child get's taken or husband beaten and beheaded. Tom is an Icon but Angelina is also an Icon, it's just a fact. Angelina can, has and will stand on her own and still be loved around the world.

For those who call Angelina a great actress, you clearly have never seen Original Sin.

And after Tomb Raider, her career started going downhill. See Beyond Borders, Taking Lives, Pushing Tin etc. Hooking up with Brad is what made her a huge star. Being Jon Voight's daughter is what got her noticed. She does NOT stand on her own.

And Brangeloonies, she didn't win an Oscar for Gia. That was a TV Movie where she plays a drug addicted psycho. She won an Oscar for Girl, Interrupted where she plays.....a mental case.

Only in Hollywood can you win awards for playing yourself.

And if you think winning an Oscar is some sort of measurement of a person's talent I point you to the completely talent-free Helen Hunt. She also has an Oscar.

Ok - Seriously I have never commented about this before. Last night I tried to be objective and I watched The Changling.

You have got to be kidding me if someone thinks that her acting is talent. If anything she has gotten worse with age. Besides the fact that she had a completely one note performance, you get a vibe from her off the screen that is not genuine. I cannot feel for her at all...maybe it's just me? She was literally the worst part of that movie. Malcovich and the guy from Burn Notice were great but AJ ruined it for me. Besides her acting being terrible, her body is so gangly and boney that I Could not get past it. She looks malnutritioned. So seriously people saying she is a talented woman, I just don't believe you actually think that. That movie was terrible and clearly was only nominated for anything to get press for the award shows.

And AJ isn't loved by the world. She has always been an outcast in Hollywood because she's such a phony. I will fight anyone about this, I am more sure than ever that Brangeloonies are out of their minds...

Her selfish charity acts. Her terrible acting. Her wasting away body. Her homewrecking (repeatedly). Her non-existent relationship with her father even though she has done the same things. Her public lies. Her manic behavior in the past. --- HOW DOES ANYONE DEFEND THIS SAD EXCUSE FOR A WOMAN?!

6:32 AM. If Angelina Jolie is such a terrible actress, how come she's very popular on screen and gets paid tons of money for her contract? She is one of the most beautiful & photographed persons in the world and is also a loving mother. The only vibe you should have is that no one knows who you are, probably because you are ugly and that you badmouth people who are more talented than you. Please advertize your picture, so the public can throw shit at it, maybe tons!!..lol...

I agree with the people here not say AJ has no talent and her so called beauty is non-existent! Please do not insult Johnny Depp by putting her in a movie with him! He is wonderful, she is at best a wonder and has been! She can't replace anyone who can truly act and she is a disease ridden whore to boot! She is a disgrace as a role model to anyone especially young woman and children! I agree, GO AWAY ALREADY!

What do you mean she's popular on screen? Her biggest grossing movies are animated - which she only has about 20 lines in.

Beautiful in your opinion - not mine. I am not into the skeletor look. And she has many many people helping her look the way that she does. Beauty has nothing to do with the fact that I think she is a phony.

You don't know if she's a loving mother. In my opinion she's not because a loving mother wouldn't sell pictures of their kids and plaster them on pages of a trashy magazine to make a quick buck. Why is it that she only brings her children out when she has a movie to promote? That's not a loving mother, that's using your child. Many other celebrity mothers are seen with their children at the park, shopping, out to eat daily. Never the Jolie-Pitts unless they have something to promote or bad press to hush. They are master manipulators & it's really not that hard to figure out.

And as for the bottom part I have no desire to tell you about my life becasue you would say it was a lie anyway but I'm perfectly content with myself. Once again the brangeloonies have to personally attack the people that don't agree with them rather than making a valid arguement for AJ - but I'll be waiting for when you can actually do that.

Lots of people get paid lots of money to be in movies. And just because Hollywood dishes out the cash for these so-called stars does not mean they have talent or that certain "It" quality.

No one will ever be able to explain Tom Cruise's appeal to me. Or Jolie's. Or Paris Hilton. Yes, Paris No Talent Hilton has raked in over a $100 million in the last few years. So please don't make the argument that these people are awesome just because someone pays them lots of money.
And for the record, Heidi and Spencer make lots of money too.

Completely agree with 7:32.

We're so sorry uncle Albert, but we haven't done a bloody thing today'''we're so sorry uncle Albert.....

7:32 AM. Don't be content with yourself; no-one else is.......
Try a constipation remedy, it might help!!

I am very content with 7:32. 12:37 on the other hand....should try taking her own advice.

She's not popular with the public. Probably why she's going back to action. Producers make the common mistake of confusing tabloid interest with box office success. Her movies don't do well. She seemed so sure she was going to get Oscars. If you have to rely on dumb political awards shows to justify someone's talent, then that speaks for itself. All that matters is what's on screen and what's on screen is "lackluster." That word seems to have the trolls in a frenzy because it's accurate. Her face doesn't even look like herself anymore and is starting to look strange. Everyone cares about the world. Big deal. Everyone would love to fly around and take photo ops and be called a great humanitarian for showing up and smiling at the camera. Maybe someone should look into what she has actually donated compared to what she has claimed she donated. People don't care for people who exploit charity and human suffering for personal gain, or who supposedly sleep with their sweet mother's boyfriend

THE SAME AGENT... BUT I PREFERE *TOM*
