But this was just PR cleanup after his weird thing about letting other (non Tom Cruise) movies play in imax theaters…

I'm not convinced he wouldn't have made that same exact post without that whole situation. He's posted similar things before

Tom Cruise is 5-foot-7. He would fit in nicely on RM.

Haha
I would love to hear about his bathroom habits, any weight loss measures and which fillers he has injected into his face. Also, his pee. We have the pee thread to think about, too. It's dying off, though, sadly. Poop is doing great though, as is weight loss.

You know what bums me out? That weird, airy, whipping sound effect that is used in movies as a punch sound. It sounds nothing like a punch, nothing about it is correct. But it's been used so much for so long it's just accepted. The mind doesn't even flinch at the irreconcilability of sound and image. But my mind flinches. I am still free

I think Indiana Jones is the only movie that gets a pass on that.
That sound swords make when they are unsheathed kinda bugs me too. "SHRING!"
Not very stealthy.

I was watching Indy 4 last night (for the first time ever) which is what inspired the idea. It's distracting. They even use the same sound for kicks, and a similar sound when a blunt object, like a stick, is used to hit someone

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
