Tom Cruise is a madman.

He is a madman and he is gonna die some day doing a stunt and, well, it’s a free country. I’m more impressed than anything else. But I got a little of the old flight reflex just watching this. (Via @bendreyfuss.)

The Tom Cruise ‘Mummy’ Teaser Trailer.

You know something? I’m going to allow it.

If for no other reason than Russell Crowe is in it as Dr. Jekyll, which means that at some point in this series he’s going to go literally Mr. Hyde on somebody, and I’m kind of looking forward to that. I had a heck of a good time watching Russell Crowe in The Nice Guys, after all. And I’m admittedly also kind of looking forward to seeing them go the full Universal Monsters route. It’s been eighty years since they made those flicks, after all.  That’s enough time, surely.
