Blimey that is a job and a half ... trying to pick a Tom Cruise performance to nominate for worst performance in cinema history.

Where do I start ... The Last Samurai, Top Gun, Cocktail, The Colour of Money, War of the Worlds, Jerry Maguire ... and i've probably forgotten loads. Take your pick they were all awful and he was acted off the screen by the scenery. Terrible terrible actor.

I will nominate The Last Samurai though.

It's about as hard as trying to pick a Morgan Freeman performance as one of the best! Too many to choose from!

Always nice to find a fellow bass enthusiast. I treat myself to an Fender American Deluxe Jazz bass last month. It has become my new love. So much so my girlfriend has actually shown signs of jealousy haha.

I dont mean to brag, but I can play The Chain and National Anthem by Fleetwood Mac and Radiohead rather well. Wasted numerous break times at school trying to perfect them.

Nice! I own an American Fender Jazz Highway One model :) Slim neck, beautiful to play!
Love the Jazz, might treat myself to a Precision soon though while I've got the money. I'd love a vintage 60s model mind you! Ooft
Dream is a Fender Mustang though! Lovely.

True that is a tough one. Will have to think about that one!

Getting back to Tom Cruise it is probably easier to pick a film he has been in which he hasn't managed to ruin than to list all his crap performances. Only Minority Report springs to mind for me. Collateral as well maybe ... that wasn't too bad.

I disagree mostly, he adequate, just for interest what do you think his best performance was?

I adore Fenders! They havent really made a bad bass. Although the Squire's are abit less to be desired. Is it just me or do, older beaten up bass guitars just look so much better than brand spanking new ones? And, yeh ever since watching The Cribs and Gary Jarman with his Mustang, its been on my dreamlist. They're relatively cheap aswell!

Don't mind Squire's too much if I'm honest. I picked up just a basic squire precision for 60 quid basically brand new, it's decent for a back up.

haha, me too! :D saw them live the other year and it really made me want one! Ampeg amps too, he uses those so I looked into it!

Probably his little cameo in Tropic Thunder. He was actually good in that. In a reverse to his usual role he actually threatened to improve the film with his performance rather than hinder it. He and Downey Jr couldn't save it though ... it was ****ed.

What do you reckon?

Thing with Ampeg is that they're ****in expensive, while Behringer are cheaper and just as good. It's like the difference between Nike and Umbro haha
