"I can eat planets....hah-hah-hah-hah! I can fly, okay? I can fly. I like to throw nails in the street. Hah-hah-hah!....stop, shut up, shut up....stop. Shut. Up. Hah-hah-hah!...I'm okay."
Cheers to Miles Fisher for doing the best Tom Cruise voice and laugh...ever. The clip is from the Weinstein Co's Superhero Movie!.

Say what you will about The Weinstein's rancid movie parody films: with this and Craig Bierko in Scary Movie 4, they've successfully lampooned Tom Cruise better than anyone.

Wow. I'm almost tempted to see this, as it has the added benefit of screwing with the Star Wars fans' sad little boycott.

that was fucking remarkable - every detail right, every box ticked.
pointing with the pinky finger out, sliding the palms together. exceptional.
the script was tight, too.

Wrong, D.Z. O'Connell's impression is nowhere near as good - way too mannered and self-conscious and he doesn't even come close to getting Cruise's voice right.

The genius of that impression isn't primarily in the voice or laugh, but the individual expressions and pauses.

I'm with D.Z. The Jerry O'Connell one was better because it came out of left field. It made you say "Holy shit, Jerry O'Connell is still alive - and funny."

Tom Cruise, Hitler, this is perverse and disgusting, but I think this could sync up pretty well to Hilter speech soundbites.

And thanks to the asshole who stole ComingSoon's exclusive and ran the clip on YouTube so that everyone linked to that rather than to the original source. That won't be happening again any time soon.
Regardless, raggin' on Tom Cruise is PLAYED... Craig Bierko's Oprah gag in Scary Movie 4 was funnier (and more timely) and this is just rehash... and actually, it's going a bit beyond being funny with the punch line.

No way was Bierko better; he doesn't look or sounds like Cruise. He and O'Connell don't cut it because they are established actors in their own right and you recognize them immediately.
Miles Fisher is a no-name, but obviously extremely talented, and in my opinoin, he gave the best celeb impression I've ever seen
But I am with you Edouglas; I am sick of the anti-Tom Cruise bullshit. It's very tired.
Still, on a purely comic level, that video is damn funny

this anti-cruise thing is just scary, anyone even reflected on what t. holly wrote? i appreciate the celeb impression but where do we draw the line? this is starting to border on downright bullying and under no circumstances is that acceptable.

T Holly comment should be deleted.
What an insult to Tom and all the jews, french and everyone who suffered or die because of the awful Nazi's crime.
Yeah right, Cruise ordered the extermination of millions of people !
Making less of the nazi crimes is such a shame and stupid.
T Holly, you are an utterly retard.
