If it's a big deal movie project with Tom Cruise attached, then there's bound to be trouble in Tinseltown. Furniture assailant Cruise is already facing an uphill battle just to get his Nazi flick Valkyrie into theatres; it's been pushed back countless times, and should now arrive in a the cineplex on February 13, a cool $25 billion over budget. But that's not the only project Cruise is having a tough time getting his way with.

    His big mistake was getting rid of his previous "handler" that told him to keep the scientology stuff quiet. Once he got rid of that person, then the quick engagement to a woman nobody knew he was even dating, the fall from grace had begun. Now it seems it has finally landed with a resounding thud.

    Not to nitpick, but it is $25 MILLION over budget, not $25 BILLION.

    Because of his bullshit, I can't watch Magnolia or Minority Report (which I loved, except for the ending). Fuck him. He ruins movies.

    25 Million… 25 Billion… they're both numbers I am not able to visualize in actual dollar bills.

    Now, 25 million Romane noodles eaten so far in my life, that I can picture. Or 25 billion germs on the toilet seat? Done.

    The dollar amount is an exaggeration. Suffice to say, Cruise's movie went significantly over budget.

    Magnolia was a fantastic movie. How Tom Cruise got in it just befuddles my dumb cracker mind.

    He may be a fucked up little crazy gay midget, but his movies are still better than Lohan's.

    Oooh! A new pink box! You know, David, I like a little variety in my pink box. Cord's is exciting, but you know, we've all seen it a few times. Whitney's always throwing her box around. Yours seems fresh, and exciting.

    might i suggest next time you are trying to exaggerate a monetary amount, you go with "a cool eleventy billion dollars over budget"?

    really drives home the hyperbole.

    I have a had time feeling sorry for Tom. All of his problems are of his own making. My only interest in this movie is to see how many members of Scientology go to see it to boost it's box office.

    Wait…$25 BILLION…WTF!!?! And, even if it's truly in millions…what's the big deal.

    Saw some leaked stills the other day, and seems that they are re-shooting one of the more climactic and important scenes of the film in/around some church or something.

    I think it will be a good film.
