New Desperate Housewives promo trailer

Desperate Housewives

The new season of Desperate Housewives is premiering soon in the US and the ads and promotional trailer have been released to build interest. Don’t know about you but the series has decidedly taken on a dull turn from the last season. Ugly Betty is by far fresher, funnier and my personal fav.

If the new season is going to be as dull as the song Walk A Mile In These Shoes by Jennifer Lopez used in the trailer, then things are really going to get desperate.

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise plays a Nazi officer in his new movie Valkyrie and finally responds to the many criticisms of his accepting the role. He is filming in Europe while his kids are at Scientology Camp.

Cruise told Bunte Magazine, “All I can say is, ‘Save your comments until you see the movie.’ I want to think positive and concentrate on the film. I carry a great responsibility to the Germans, for whom a man like (Colonel Claus Graf Schenk von) Stauffenberg means so much.”

“And I feel this responsibility to the man himself. The more I learn about him, the greater my respect and my admiration of him. Intuitively I saw a similarity in the profile of this man with myself. Naturally that’s something that makes an actor curious. We wanted the inner truth, so to speak, and location helps with that.”
