Under the section titled 1980s: Breakthrough and stardom The quote "A Generation X classic, and a career maker for Tom Cruise." is nowhere to be found in the source cited. This includes both the current and archived sources. 2600:6C46:6B00:297:40D:F215:EFE6:DB50 (talk) 08:08, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Done – that quote was added way back in 2006, and looking at the nearest archived copy of the source after that date, the quote is indeed there. I've revised the citation template accordingly. Tollens (talk) 08:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
