Film is a visual medium, and Tom Cruise is perhaps the biggest film star in the world, so we're going to photoblog Cruise's Oprah appearance as fast as we can upload the images. Really, words would only get in the way.

Some people who don't have the luxury of watching TV at the office asked, "What is Cruise talking about? He's making funny faces!" Does it matter? He was talking about whatever you think he was talking about, that's the beauty of this open-ended art form.

We were surprised, however, when Cruise crashed through the television set and into our living room during his amazing third round of wrestling with Oprah. Without missing a beat, he merely dusted himself off, flashed that world-famous smile (where did those Ray Bans come from?), then hopped right back into the television to continue the interview.

Supplemental bonus material: We're too spent to offer any further commentary right now. Luckily, the lunatics at the DataLounge were watching along with us: "I like Tom Cruise now. His insanity has come to the fore. He had no personality before. Now, he's like a member of your family.

If your family had an crazy uncle who was liable to take a dump on the Thanksgiving turkey. "
