The new anti war movie out this weekend by Ryan Phillope Stop Loss only opened $ 4 million. Im more saddened why Cruise garnering so many awards and is a true entertainer still has no award from the Academy same with so many actors being snubbed. Valkyrie is not just intelligent entertainment but a story that needs to be told. You cant compare Valkyrie to Disney movies, blockbuster comedies or even the Superhero blockbusters.

People are bothered about accents? You think German people go around talking English in German accents. WRONG. They talk German. So it doesn't matter what the heck accent they speak in. Personally, I think this film has the potential to be great. And I don't agree with the people who didn't like <i>Superman Returns</i>. Singer's <i>X-Men</i> films really weren't that good (contrary to popular belief), and it was actually <i>Superman Returns</i> that restored my faith in the man. Considering Cruise's last period piece was <i>The Last Samurai</i> - a near-flawless film - I have high hopes for this one. Accents?

I am sure that person who said Singer beats his kids writes for star magazine. I don't care about accents. I would rather actors do not have accents like Angelina Jolie in Alexander. Concetrate on the movie and do some good acting which am sure Tom Cruise will deliver. I am looking forward to this movie.

I am interested in our sad history. And i even like some Tom Cruise flicks.

Cruise is by far named the most friendliest by the people along with the Deppster and Will Smith. Singer has many videos signing kids autographs and he's not married and has no kids. WB just assigned Singer to continue with Superman. Poor jealous ones and Im really looking forward to this movie. I have the script and its really good. Very suspenseful. Its time the world does not only link Germany to Hitler but to witness they have many real heroes too. LOL!

I really don't give a shit about accents. I just wanna see this movie cause of Tom Cruise and cause him being linked to it, makes it fresh in my mind that some German men actually tried to bring down Hitler, something I never knew before. Maybe my kids will read about this in their history books one day. An untold story. Lovely. I can't wait for a new and even better Valkyrie trailer, one that will convince me to drag as many people as possible to the movie theatre when it premieres!

He said that Bryan Singer was an arsehole who hit his children in his trailer. It was not to be mentioned on set by cast or crew but was well known. And Cruise was as arrogant and snobby as you think he is. Singer also even had the audacity to blame the audience for its reception of Superman Returns, despite the film's lacklustre storyline and poor structure. I hope this film dies.

A win would be awesome. The original Valkyrie film with the German accent was no good Hollywood didnt care for it and even the German people. So accents does not matter. The storyline is what matters most and the acting. So many movies are not accurate with the accents so dont watch the film if you're just after the accents.

This just seems as wrong as casting Chinese actresses to play Japanese leads who happen to speak (poor) Enlish in "Memoirs of a Geisha". After "Superman Returns" I just don't trust Bryan Singer any longer. He had all the resources a director could dream of during the making of that movie and he managed a piss poor reinsterpretation of Richard Donners seminal comic book flick. Trailer doesn't look promising and Tom Cruise just quite isn't the box-office behemoth he used to be.</p> Gotta agree with the earlier two posters.
