Cruise has graced a lot of premieres in his three-plus decades in movies, but at every one, he appears to be as enthusiastic as if it were his first. He grins, plays with the fans, rides in on motorcycles, points at everyone like a politician, and puts on some heavy PDA --- with co-stars and lady friends alike. Even when he's been otherwise embroiled in controversies, his red carpet shows are contagiously enthusiastic. Flip though our 30 favorite poses above and just try not to ruin your couches as you grin along with Tom!
