Good question and also difficult!!!
On one hand Tom Cruise is a talented actor, you cannot deny that, you may dislike his beliefs or his eccentricities but he does have talent.
On the other hand River Phoenix was also very talented. He played one of my all time favourite characters ever created, Chris Chambers from Stand By Me (one of my favorite films) and would have gone on to do other great films. Stephen Spielberg or George Lucas (or both) said if he hadnt died when he did they would have made some young Indiana Jones films which would have been awesome!!!!!
So to answer your question, I dont know, lol
its too hard a question, plus who knows what would have happened, the drug probem would maybe have ruined his carear or he might have been the biggest star ever, we will never know.

Yes, I think he would have made it even bigger than he was. Tom Cruise would not have stood a chance against River!

I actually do not think their style of acting or fan base are comaparable. I think River favoured avant garde/ art house productions and was more likely to have been a rival to Johnny Depp.
Tom Cruise is more main stream and predictable.

I loved River Phoenix, he was probably my first crush when I was about 8.
I think he probably would have been like Johnny Depp. Doing big films as well as smaller ones.

According to the ladies, he was bigger than TC (if you catch my drift), a lot bigger.
