Straphangers (and transit police), if you see a maniacally grinning man on the subway, surrounded by an entourage of keepers, or if the man starting jumping on the seats, do not be (that) afraid - it's just Tom Cruise! As part of the big scheme to make sure that all people can think about is Tom Cruise 24/7, Mission: Imossible III will premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in grand fashion. Here's part of the press release:
Cruise's mission - "should he choose to accept it" - will begin at 3:30pm at MTV's "TRL" studios in Times Square. Traveling by motorcycle, speedboat, taxicab, helicopter, sports car, and subway, Cruise will crisscross the island, making his way to premieres in Tribeca and Harlem before heading to the U.S. premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre (141 West 54th St.), hosted in conjunction with the Tribeca Film Festival.Okay, that is pretty cool to take various forms of transportation, though it'll mean insane gridlock on May 3, but what about pedicab and hansom cab? We wonder if the Paramount flacks will cheap out and have Tom take the S train right before rush hour. Anyway, Gothamist hopes that Philip Seymour Hoffman, who is playing the evil lead in the movie, will be a part of the festivities, though seeing him on a subway is probably less cognitively dissonant than seeing 50% of TomKat.
And the world premiere of M:i:III will be in Shanghai in less than two weeks.

Maybe he'll stop by to lend support to the Scientologists always trying to force a stress test on commuters.
Just make sure the NYPD beats down on his Scientologist ass if he starts jumping on the subway seats!
maybe he will see some poor, unfortunate soul with a drug problem riding in his car and cure them on his trip. after all, he can, in his own words, get someone off heroin in three days.
*sigh* is there anything he can't do?
Yeah, he can't convince me Katie Holmes is in this for love.
Typical wealthy elitist - he's going to travel every possible way except by foot!
im hoping to see him riding on one of those dumb 6 seat circle bikes.
What about Segway? He's not travelling by Segway!
will his subway card go up on ebay? I want it!
Hansom, pedi-car, back of a police car, yellow school bus...we can go on and on
If there's no party bike, there's no point.
"cognitively dissonant"
Check out the big brain on Jen !!!
Jen Chung is more known for her big something else.
Also editors please take out the last spam MTA comment, we are talking about serious TomKat issues here.
VM Stong forgets to include "freakin' idiot" in her crudentials.
I am sure Kalikow reads Gothamist comments daily.
Ah, this is why the canned that stupid idea to not allow pictures in the subway!
So does this mean Katie is going to give birth before all this? Or is Tom going to leave his bulging fiancee in LA and then Mission Impossible it across the country in case she goes into labor?
Man, if this isn't the most genius marketing campaign for a movie -- brain washing and knocking up some girl to have the baby right when the movie comes out! -- I just don't know what is.
Where is Rebecca De Mornay going to be during this whole train ride business? I'm sensing greater marketing opportunities here than I think the pr people could have imagined.
How typical. Wealthy famous person does something millions of people have to do every day for a laugh, expects a medal for it.
can someone figure out all the possible routes Cruise might take, especially which subway lines?
I think I'm gonna hurl......
That man can no longer act and is just a parody of his former self.
Please let's resurrect the party bike for cruise and his entourage.
I have a theory. Katie Holmes had the baby 3 days ago, but because it was a "silent birth" no heard her.
