> What is the next franchise that will get me counting down the days until the next movie comes out?
DC is about to reboot. John Wick and Mission: Impossible are great current action series. The Ghostbusters series is back I guess? Halloween and Jurassic Park's reboot trilogies are done but Scream is back and going strong. Then there's Avatar.

That would be fine and dandy if he was some random member of Scientology but he's literally the public face of the cult. And by remaining the public face of Scientology he approves of these things it's as simple as that. Tom Cruise is a human being who 100% thinks it's morally acceptable to kill the pet of a rape victim to get her to shut up.
That's for the rest of what you said honestly? I agree and I do condemn them. But that's a whole other bag of worms. I personally was actually molested by a priest myself. From ages 7 to 9. And I personally find every single fucking Catholic on this planet to be a disgusting human being who approves of me being molested. Every last one of them.

Do other female martial arts movie stars get credit for anything?

No, just no. Look, i don't mean to defend scientology (or any religion or cult) but you can't use arguments like this. Because some scientologist murdered a pet doesn't mean every scientologist approves of this. Same as when some Christian priest abuses a child it doesn't mean that every Christian approves of this.
It is of course your free choice to watch Tom Cruise movies or not.

I'm only half-way through it so far (read the first volume and only recently picked up the second) but I have enjoyed it. Like you it appealed to me for its noir style, but also serving as kind of a slice of lesser-known real history.

Reply to Despite being such a popular and iconic historical topic, no one has attempted a pirate movie in the twenty years since Pirates of the Caribbean by Trillamanjaroh
Vikings were pirates*, and we've had plenty of Viking movies. I'm reminded of Gene Roddenberry's remark that Star Trek was a wagon train to the stars. Just take an old genre -- one that may be a bit worn and in need of a breather -- and transpose it to a different setting.
And speaking of space "westerns" ... well, I haven't watched that kind of film for years, but aren't there plenty of piratical types in sci fi films?
Not all pirates have to have eyepatches, wooden legs, and a Hollywoodized Elizabethan English accent.
*Yeah, yeah, I know: Vikings were a lot of other things besides pirates -- but raiders and pirates are homeground for Viking lore in the movies, largely because that is how they primarily impacted the (slightly) more civilized peoples of the British Isles and France, and the slightly more civilized victims of Viking pirates raids, in the end, were the people who wrote the history books.

Thanks for this comment. I was wondering to myself if she was the same one that they mentioned. You saved me from having to look it up.
