Cruise/Kidman vs. Cruise/Cruz

Who makes the better couple? Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman, or Tom Cruise & Penelope Cruz?

My vote's definitely for Penelope Cruz. She's the Audrey Hepburn of our era.

Nicole's great, but I thought Eyes Wide Shut clearly showed the lack of chemistry between Tom and Nicole.

I would have preferred Weasel and Penelope Cruz.

It has a nice ring to it.

(I bet Mrs.Weasel would like to know this

)

@Eyes Wide Shut, wasn't that intentional by the director (the late Stanley Kubrik

)

Personally i think Cruz is definately more....ummm....how can i put it.....interesting, but we don't really know that much about her since she is so new, i can not jusge her as a person, until i see her actions off camera.

IMO neither of them are all that attractive, i think they are both somewhat tiresome in appearence.

@ Eyes Wide Shut - You may be right. I must confess that I didn't understand the movie at all. All I remember is the lack of chemistry and "Fidelio."

Penelope is very private, but she apparently donates a lot of her time and money to charity.

So does my Mum, but i don't see Tom Cruise at the breakfast table every morning

Seriously though i am glad too see she keeps herself private, it is nice to know it can still be done in Hollywood

@Eyes Wide Shut I think that it is just a portrayal of a 'day in the life' it doesn't really have a plot to speak of and the script is fairly shoddy, but it did look nice

Well, don't forget that Nicole has two adopted children from her marriage to Tom (assuming she gets custody).

I think she will, in the eye of the media she is the wounded one, after all the fault of the marriage is being blamed on Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz.

Okay, I'll take Nicole. (Always did have a thing for redheads and brunettes.) The kids can go with Cruise, or Veh.

An update - Nicole Kidman recently spoke about her divorce from Tom Cruise in an interview with chat show host Michael Parkinson:

". . . Divorce is divorce and it's a really tough thing to go through, (but) I'd love to get married again."

I'm afraid she's out of luck--I'm married, and Weasel wants Cruz.

Ms.Cruz is out of luck as well.

I'm married.

But if I become President...she can become an intern.

Why wait? Let's form a new nation. Then you can hire all the interns you want. Alternatively, we can set up an intern-training program. Back in the sixties, under LBJ, we could have gotten federal funding for it. In the eighties, under Reagan, we could have trained the interns in marching and gotten defense funding for it. Now, I guess we'll just have to live on love alone.
