Tom Cruise, Now With Even MORE Crazy
Tags: crazy, ias award, l. ron hubbard, law suit, rant, scientology, Tom Cruise
The Church of Scientology is going on the legal offensive after video of Tom Cruise ranting about saving the world through Scientology made its way online, claiming the footage was stolen from their website and threatening to sue anybody who posts it (see the letter they sent Gawker Media after the jump). I personally give it about two hours before they pull the above footage of him talking to and saluting L. Ron Hubbard’s portrait, because this new footage sure isn’t going to help Tommy in his attempts to resurrect what’s left of his career and marketability. The Daily Mail says
[Cruise] has had trouble sleeping and been tearful at times [because he] is entrenched in a crisis… spearheaded by this week’s leaked internet video, on top of the stress caused by the publication of a scandal-drenched biography and his continually misfiring career.
But it is perhaps even harder for him to live down the humiliation of being dumped from a producing deal with Paramount by media mogul Sumner Redstone - because women, including Redstone’s wife, Paula, found him creepy. “He turned off all women and a lot of men,” Redstone said. “Paula and women everywhere had come to hate him.”
If I understand this correctly — and I’m pretty sure I do — you could have a Nazi Klansman child pornographer and Tom Cruise vying for the same role in a movie and there’s 99% chance that the studio would go with the Jew-hating pedophile in Grand Wizard costume. I mean, you can at least relate to that kind of crazy. It’s been around for a couple thousand years. But volcanoes full of hydrogen bombs and operating thetans and past lives and secret levels, well, that doesn’t make any goddamned sense. I’m pretty sure that’s why they invented electroshock therapy and straight jackets in the first place.

I vaguely remember a time when he was considered Hollywood’s “Golden Boy.” It was the late eighties and Democrats were nowhere to be found. Coincidence?

is it possible to get excommunicated from the Church of Scientology? shouldn’t they be embarrassed by this moron?

Emabarrassed by him? They all believe that D8 airplanes brought millions of people to our planet to be blown up in volcanos by hydrogen bombs, thus our population is forever haunted by their ghosts. They are all on the same level of crazy. Tom’s just more public about it.

The guy that Tom is so maniacally applauding is even shorter than TC himself!!
I had forgotten what a dick Matt was to Tom. Wasn’t it great?

Maybe he jumped up and down on Oprah’s couch because he thought he saw some depression medication on the cushions.

Oopps…sorry about that RebelBoy! I was only kidding! I’m the one who’s the real asshole! Your right about Tom…he is an idiot! And as far as your penis….I’d love to suck on it for an hour or two! I would also love to sleep with it in my mouth for a whole night!

Just as an aside from a practicing lawyer: That cease-and-desist letter is one of the weirdest bits of legal scrivening I have seen in a long time.

The design on the front of the podiim he’s standing behind looks like the one of the alien masks the predators wore on Alien Versus Predator…Isn’t that fitting?

Oh, so good to hear that. Seems I have seen he at an interracial dating club blackcentury.com or somewhere just like that. Not sure whether it is true or not.

It’s funny watching the clip with Matt Lauer and then watching the Oprah clip….Tom get some help. Ever heard of a manic episode? Might want to look into some mood stabilizers.

He is obviously on something, a fair guess would be some kind of depressant probably a benzodiazepine like Halcion (the presidents choice LOL).
Scientology is a criminal organisation and should be banned. There is nothing religious to it, its all about sucking money out of people.
