    Theater owners gathered in Las Vegas this week to check out upcoming offerings from across the studios. Matt Belloni of The Hollywood Reporter was there and tells Kim Masters that at Paramount's presentation, Tom Cruise stole the show. A clip from the latest Mission Impossible movie showed the actor doing his own stunts, including holding on to an airplane as it takes off. Other crowd pleasers included a screening of the newest Pixar movie, Inside Out, which got a very emotional reaction from audience members. Warner Bros is putting out a stunning nine movies this summer, and at their presentation, the two films the crowds seemed most excited about were a new Vacation movie and Black Mass, which stars an almost unrecognizable Johnny Depp playing crime boss Whitey Bulger.
