Today was my boss’s first day back from vacation in Europe, where he claimed to have found the amount of Smart Roadsters running around quite remarkable. That naturally led me to bring up the oft-forgotten car chase in the 2010 action-comedy, Knight And Day, in which multiple Roadsters chase down Tom Cruise and…
Mission: Impossible Fallout, the sixth movie of the spy franchise which hit theaters last weekend, has been blowing people away with its incredible action. One of the best sequences in the movie is a motorcycle and car chase through the streets of Paris. Here’s how it was pulled off.
If I want to watch Tom Cruise make himself the center of attention in a super-macho, highly competitive vehicle-related environment with cringeworthy lovemaking scenes and cheesy dialogue, I’ll just watch Top Gun, thank you very much.
The trailer for Mission: Impossible Fallout, the sixth (sixth!) installment of what’s become a body horror franchise, dropped during the Super Bowl last night and it exclusively features Tom Cruise continuing to prove to all of us his crazy personal hobbies have made him invincible by doing his own stunts.
Hollywood is still a place where magic can happen, but only thanks to the hard work of people like John Ficarra. Ficarra says he used to own a company that, in 2006, helped give Tom Cruise a vehicular smorgasbord to drive through New York City to promote Mission: Impossible III. Included in that smorgasbord was a…
After too many years of crappy computer generated car stunts, practical effects are coming back. Mad Max set the tone this year and the new Mission Impossible flick is carrying the torch into the summer. Here’s a brief look behind the scenes at how Tom Cruise and Co. are bringing real driving back to the big screen.
Tom Cruise is now a well-known stunt junkie and his addiction is on full display in Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation. In the scene, Ethan Hunt (played by Cruise) hitches a ride on the outside of an Airbus A400M transport that quickly leaves the ground. Sure, there were safety harnesses, but that doesn’t make it a joy…
It leaked this week that Tom Cruise will likely play the hard-drinking, overalls-wearing, legendary sonofabitch Carroll Shelby in the film adaptation of A.J. Baime's great Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, And Their Battle For Speed And Glory At Le Mans. Here's an excerpt from that book (which you should buy) that explains…
Holy crap, 20th Century Fox is making a movie out of Go Like Hell, the story of how Ford beat Ferrari at Le Mans. Also, some possibly-insane guy named Tom Cruise is probably going to play Carroll Shelby.
Hey everyone, that's it. The Internet is over. Archer remade the video for Danger Zone from Top Gun. Yeah, let's all sign off now, there's no way to top it.
Remember in 1990 when Tom Cruise was in Top Gun again, but this time he was strapped into NASCAR cars instead of fighter jets? Well, that movie has its own title and story and everything— Days of Thunder. Cruise plays NASCAR racer Cole Trickle (named in tribute to racer Dick Trickle, the man with the funniest name in…
Remember the very early '90s? It was like the late '80s, but for some reason everyone started thinking about Seattle. Many of us still had our Nintendo Entertainment Systems, and some of us may have been lured into playing the game based on the Tom Cruise NASCARvaganza, Days of Thunder. You know, Top Gun in racecars.
British motoring show Top Gear is a popular stop on the U.K. interview circuit for two reasons: 1.) It's the most watched show... in the world; 2.) Entertainers get to measure up against their peers on a race track. In last night's episode, Ryan Reynolds takes on Tom Cruise's time. It's charming.
WHOOO! YEAH! Gooooood morning America! Hey, why the sad faces? You look like you're not getting your recommended daily allowance of pure awesome.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz each took an expletive-filled run on the Top Gear track. How did two 'mericans fare on the world's most popular motoring show? Here's a hint. Cruise managed to get the car on two wheels. Epic.
The Ducati motorcycle Tom Cruise rides in those annoying ESPN commercials isn't really a big, bad Ducati. It's just an Aprilia sportbike disguised as one. Wes Siler of Hell for Leather Magazine explains why.
Suri Cruise has been so "mesmerized by auto racing" on TV, her father Tom dropped $30,000 on a custom car for the three-year-old. An Escalade? Nope. A miniature replica of a freaking open-wheel racer according to gossip sites.
Eleven extras were injured when they fell out of a truck during filming of Valkyrie, a new movie starring Tom Cruise. [Freep]
