#75a shrink's diagnosis: he's bi-polar himself.
Posted: 6/25/05 at 1:19amPersonally I don't find scientology to be any more out there then most religions (not that I begrudge people for being religious if that works for them), but his actions lately stink of someone who's trying to push his beliefs on others. There's more careful ways of expressing your thoughts than the way he's been doing it lately.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Posted: 6/25/05 at 1:23amHe's an egomaniac. I'd like to know what was the real reason for his marriage failure (his second) to Nicole Kidman.

It's. What. They. Do.
You might enjoy reading some of the true life stories of what happens to regular folks, NOT spoiled celebrities, who try to get out of Scientology.

1. "No, Matt, no, you haven't studied the history of psychiatry like I have!"
And just HOW does he know that Matt has not studied the history of psychiatry? And what was Cruise's field of study in that area? Did he read 'Psychotherapy for Idiots'?
2. "there's no such thing as a chemical imbalance."
Oh, right, Tom! And you would know better than all the scientists and physicians who have studied this topic for decades? Or the people who suffer from these imabalances?
3. Now, I have to look away from the screen when the arrogant, ignorant SOB appears.
I started doing this a long time ago and the one thing that saddens me is that, as a result of my aversion to this moron, I have missed several Spielberg movies I really wanted to see. Do I go to see War of the Worlds or not? Cruise needs to go off and sit on a mountain in Tibet somewhere and hope that the real monks and spiritually aware people up there won't push him OFF THE FRIGGIN' MOUNTAIN

Alter...
All his marriages fail, for the simple fact that there is no "marriage" and he is a controlling ass. Kidman had many "rules" put upon her, and she got tired of them. Katie will, too, yet, we won't see anything until five years later, when "She's realised she's settled with a nut, and want to kill him, which she should"
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

Posted: 6/25/05 at 11:17amBy the time the movie gets made, I'm hoping Dakota Fanning will be old enough. That has a nice synchronicity about it. And we already know she can pull off dark hair.
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

They make these movies pretty quickly, Dakota won't be old enough yet.
Amber Tamblyn, anyone?

For those who wish to take Mr. Cruise's advice and research the topic at hand, this might be a good place to start.
Anti-Scientology on the net.

I'm just now seeing the clip on Best Week Ever. Reading the transcript does not give the full effect. Tom shaking his head, eyes closed, at how stupid and uninformed he perceives Matt to be.
Matt deserves a bonus.

Posted: 6/25/05 at 1:00pmYou're astute, Rath. The transcript, in the Times today via a fairly withering bit of media commentary, doesn't do it/him justice. Did anyone hear/read him go ballistic about shock therapy? There was something about the barely controlled rage that suggests HE's been through electroshock, no? That Young Frankenstein glint in his hazel, Katie-gazing eyes.

First Tom says (about Steven S.), " 'Cause I say, I know your movies better than you [do]. You know, I studied his edits so many times. I've studied his movies."
Then he states, ""No, Matt, no, you haven't studied the history of psychiatry like I have!"
Well, my, my, my, is does seems Tom Cruise has a Masters in being an ass.
ATTENTION TOMMY BOY,
You DO NOT know it all. You are a cheesy, second rate actor who has now offically flushed his carrer down the ol crapper.
Please keep you opinions to yourself. We, the people, are not interested in them. And shut your pie hole about being in love. Again, we are not interested.
And as for any further movies, we will no longer be interested in them as well.
Signed,
The People of Planet Earth

Posted: 6/25/05 at 1:15pmHow come John Travolta is still a nice guy and you don't hear him babbling like Tom?

He controls himself on the topic. But I recall a "Kirstie Alley and John Travolta defend their religion tonight on Dateline" and they were just as dazed and just as odd as Tom, without the mania. Going on and on about how ALL of the criticism of Scientology came from EX members and that in and of itself made it invalid. And Alley said, I kid you not, "It's like a couple gets a divorce and you only listen to THE WIFE'S side of the story!" She was exasperated by this concept.
Nobody is ever able to actually say what they "get" out of Scientology. Just that it "works" for them and they have many "wins" as a result of it. Except for Lisa Marie and Beck and a few others, none of the public faces of Scientology actually come off as particularly bright. What we're seeing of Travolta is interviews in controlled environments. When the control is lessened, you end up with his Battlefield Earth movie.
