War of the Worlds and Water

It'd probably take an alien invasion to stop Steven Spielberg's "War of the Worlds" from being a blockbuster hit.

Not even all of the negative publicity that Tom Cruise has been getting in regard to his "enthusiasm" for Katie Holmes could derail this summer crowd-pleaser. "War of the Worlds" is going to score big from opening day and who knows how long the movie will rule at the box office? I doubt that the Fantastic Four will make much of a dent, and truly, what else is coming out this summer to challenge it?

And speaking of Tom Cruise, did you happen to see or hear about the "idiot" that threw water on Cruise? At the London premiere for the "War of the Worlds" a man squirted Cruise with a water pistol disguised as a microphone. Police arrested the prankster as well as three other men who filmed the incident. The four were working on a new comedy show for British TV which targets celebrities for practical jokes. I guess the joke was on them.
