One reason people like to watch Tom Cruise specifically is because he does his own stunts. People like seeing a skill in action. People like seeing actors be good at acting. There might be AI movies but there will be a place for people. There is still live theater more than 100 years after film.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ writer Rhett Reese reacts to viral AI video of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt fighting: “I hate to say it. It’s likely over for us.”

I know the Sgt. Schultz routine seems to work for GOP legislators, but claiming you’re unaware of massively viral videos of ICE misconduct when you’re the director of ICE just makes you sound hopelessly incompetent and out of the loop.

THANEDAR: What did your ICE agent mean when he said, 'you raise your voice, I erase your voice' in the video all of us have seen? LYONS: I'm not aware of that video. I can't comment

VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island? LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children
