Just one question, does TomCat fullfill the height requirements to be in the SS. I mean seriously does he stand on a box through out the movie.

He is only 2 inches below the requirement. Cruise stands at 5 foot 7 inches and the requirement was 5 foot 9 inches (relaxed from 6 foot). Perhaps they add 2 inch boot soles...hehe.

Either way I agree with the thread starter. Tom Cruise just does not have German features, you can see he is not German. Til Schweiger stands at 5 foot 10 inches and is a German why not use him? Seriously.

One word.

Commercialism

This certainly is a case of commercial pulling power getting in the way of a good story. No doubt they will also paint Stauffenberg as a good guy from the very start while they are at it.

I'd be a bit leery about using Cruise for anything other than a speed hump given his recent behaviour. In my opinion, he's in waaay too deep. You know those folks that get 'interested' in UFOs and that kind of thing...then after a while they're seriously talking about alien civilizations and their plans for humanity like it's common knowledge? This guy Cruise is seriously mental by now. It's my bet that he and Mel Gibson will be sharing a padded cell sometime in the near future. Tom can blame the Lyrans and Mel can blame the Jews.

After a couple of weeks of that, they'll be one-in-the-same, shedding a whole new (dim) light on the Jewish-Bolshevik conspiracy to take over the world.

Well they are a couple of dim bulbs.

A few Roo's short of the top paddock perhaps ?

Aren't the 'roos 'loose' in the top paddock?
Mel's father Hutton was a big winner on a TV gameshow here in the eighties. 'Pick-a-Box' I think. It's come to light that he's a holocaust denier. Nothing like kids parroting their parents views without even thinking about it.

Too true.... sadly.
