Tom Cruise: Greatest Actor of All Time or Messiah?

Congratulations to those that deemed Anchorman the funniest movie ever.  Now wait for the real funniest movie ever poll: where Will Ferrell's tour-de-force goes up against the avant-garde maelstrom of Freddy Got Fingered and Jim Carrey's transcendent, transformative turn in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.

Spurred by an in-London watching of Jerry Maguire, Carmen feels he should list movies that, in ways both good and bad, immediately zombify him with their entertainingness.  Zombify as in if he catches the movie on HBO or STARZ out of the corner of his eye he'll saunter over and couch himself and watch the movie to its conclusion, drooling toddlerishly.
