Damn you Tom Cruise!!!!!!!

[Enzomatrix]

now not only did he stop them from airing the scientology episode of south park in europe but now hes pulled strings to stop comedy central from airing it again here in america. how is this **** even legal ???? now im seriously tired of him and his crap hes not that great that hes above being made fun of and hes the only one aside from isacc hayes whining about it. scientology isnt even a real religion its a lame half assed sci fi story thats too dull and convoluted to be made into a quality film or tv series.


i mean cmon why worship that crap when you can worship a quality sci fi story like V the final batle or Bukaroo Banzai.

[MinionZombie]

They'll surely contest that ruling and have it overturned - the whole first amendment freedom of speech thing you guys whip out all the time over there is surely being trampled all over.

Cruise and Hayes have a right to be ****ed ... but well Hayes doesn't actually, he didn't give a crap about taking the mick out of Catholics or christians etc, so screw him. As for Cruise...technically he has the right to be ****ed - but Comedy Central and South Park have the right to air their episode AND state that scientology is a bunch of bollocks, and I mean a gigantic beanbag sack filled with bollocks.

So it won't be aired...well, it'll be downloaded 10 times more than it is/has been already. Good to see South Park can still court controversy - and it'll all be great advertising for their season 10 premiere in a few days.

The complainers are friggin' morons, this decision has to be overturned. The church couldn't get the Bloody Mary episode banned, so how on earth can Tom "I'm down here" Cruise get away with this turd sandwich...what a giant douche.

I don't know which is worse; Muslims bitching and whining about a cartoon, OR, Tom Cruise bitching and whining about a cartoon?!?!?!?!

[bassman]

I heard on the radio this morning that he threatened to not do any promoting for "Mission: Impossible 3" if they didn't pull the episode. What the hell is that??? Threatening to not promote a movie you star in and produce??

The only reason the show got pulled is because Paramount owns both comedy central and the "Mission: Impossible" franchise...

Damn you Tom Cruise! Although I can't deny that I won't go see the flick. If for nothing more than to see Phillip Seymore Hoffman play the bad guy:D

it be short it's not an issue od censorship or even leality, but of money. to the networks it's not worth the time and the lawsuits to run the episode.

having said that, the episode in question is one of the easiest episode of south park to find online. if i was not at work right now i'd grab you a terrent link directly.

in turth the only thing cruise and Co have acomplished is to make the episode even more accurate and more infamous.

That seems to happen alot to the creators of "South Park", Trey Parker and Matt Stone. I remember when "Team America" was being released, Sean Penn started some crap over it and their response was something along the lines of, "Sean Penn, you just gave us millions of dollars worth of advertising for our film....thanks, buddy".

And how many famous people have b*tched about "South Park" now?...about 100 at least:p They need to learn to just let it slide. I was surprised Michael Jackson never sued for the "Mr. Jefferson" episode....

[DjfunkmasterG]

I can't stand Tom Cruise, I refuse to see MI: 3! I don't care if Phillip Seymour Hoffman is the bad guy... The movie still has Cruise in it. PHUCK CRUISE, PARAMOUNT, KATIE HOLMES, and COMEDY CENTRAL!

it's becomming the standard. sort fo like with V for vendetta, the more controversey it draws, the more people will hear about it, the bigger it's opening weekend will be.

Not that i'm trying to change your opinion or anything....but just because he's an ass in his actual life doesn't mean he can't act. After all....he has participated in some of the greats. "Legend", "Top Gun", "Rain Man", "Days of Thunder"(guilty pleasure of mine)

I agree with you though....he's an ass. But I was a big fan of "Mission: Impossible"...especially the sequel(John Woo, man....John Woo) So i'll probably see the third on the opening weekend. After all....the trailer looks pretty sweet..

whats the controversy with V for Vendetta? and who is it thats complaining about it?

[p2501]

largely everyone on the less than savory news outlets.

one side will bitch it's anti-bush.

another side will bitch it's pro-violence.

and so on.

Interesting...I thought this post was going to be about how he "knocked up" Katie Holmes.

I am sure it wasnt him and that he hired a surrogat father or something (is that the term for something like that?), but shes prego nonetheless!

tom cruise can go to hell with his scientology. if this is the way he wants to act he can stick his movies up his a$$, because i dont want to see them.
and dude dakota fanning is just a kid you dont say things like that

this is just my opinion.

[Danny]

tom cruise is most likely going to hell for scientology, its amde up, we know it he knows it yet he stnads by it, its , we all know they just get together and get drunk whilst bogeling to aswad,lol.


**** scientology.

[MinionZombie]

And then us Brits will see a big correlation between the movie and the current Labour f*ck-up-ment (government). Bastards!

And Sean Penn going on about how he went to Iraq and how it was so awesome - dude what a twat - yes it's not going to be ALL bad, there'll be nice people there, but goddamn - the whole mess should have been finished back in 1990/91 when it was going on. So Sean Penn condones rape rooms, murder, genocide, hacking off hands as punishment...what an ass.

Actors + political opinions in public = asshat-ology.

say what? you miss understood what i meant because i made a point to clarify that she is underaged and i like her for her acting skills and if she were of age and he hooked up with her it would suck. which is why i said if she were old enough.

everytime a celebrity makes some kind of political statement all i can hear is that circus music. like john stweart said theyre in their own world and hollywood isnt really a part of the rest of america so they dont have a real view of what the rest of the world goes through. they see it on tv but they dont have to deal with any of it unless they want to show off or pretend liek they care.

nah no worries i should have explained it better. i still hate tom cruise lol. and now his "people" are saying he didnt go and pull that stunt to get them to stop airing the episode. all i can say is if you try to pull rank at least back it up. makes you wonder though if he really is crazy or not.

[jdog]

i'm starting to think that tom cruise is crazy to. some of the things he says and the way he acts is a little wierd.
tom cruise needs to get his head out of his a$$ and his mind back on his acting career, before no one wants to see him in a movie.

The only thing I've ever seen with this sap in it that was worth watching was/is Vanilla Sky (and that is a remake.) And to be honest, the best part of that flick is the gorgeous Penélope Cruz.

wow a movie star with government powers?? oh wait arnold shwartzaneger...

Bit of a git this Cruise.

tom cruise is strait up "clown shoes"
and a cry baby to boot.

Here we go again... Where did you hear Cruise had anything to do with with South Park episode not being aired?

[HLS]

Tom Cruise is obviously insecure.

Apparently he never threatened anything - - This is taken from an msnbc article

Reportedly, because Tom objected, threatening not to promote the Paramount film “Mission: Impossible III” if the episode wasn't pulled.

The connection between the two? Paramount is owned by Viacom.

However, a spokesperson for Cruise denies that Tom made the threat saying, “He never said nay such thing about ‘Mission: Impossible III.’”

In true “South Park” form, show creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker issued the following statement:

“So, Scientology, you may have won THIS battle, but the million-year war for earth has just begun! Temporarily anozinizing our episode will NOT stop us from keeping Thetans forever trapped in your pitiful man-bodies.”

Oh yeh, the South Park guys' responses were classic - and El Grinning Midgeto so had something to do with it, the guy's gone down to douche town big time of late ... plus he's an outspoken scien-wank-ogist. Remember the whole "pseudo-science" thing?

DUDE, JUST SHUT THE F*CK UP AND ACT IN MOVIES YOU DUMB F*CK...yeh... jizztology p*sses me off...as does censoring p*ss...

I'm not too sure if this is true or not, but, years ago there was a rumor going around that Hubbard "invented" this religion on a bet. He bet a collegue he could create a religion and people would follow it.
I did a little research on it about two years ago; It looked like some sort of weird Religious Pyramid Scam if you ask me. It did mention something about aliens and humans mingling thousands of years ago; After that I just put the book down and picked my nose for a while; that was a little more enlightening.

[GRMonLI]

Tom Cruise IS a cartoon!!!!!

[MinionZombie]

Indeed I think that is the case - they believe there was a galactic war, the aliens lost and came to earth and put their souls in cavemen ... or something ... and so begins the human race - according to jizzmatology!

Why have none of the members EVER asked - HOW do you KNOW that this is the TRUTH? What evidence is there of this apparent war? Bugger all that's what - it's impossible enough to prove the Bible is nothing more than here-say and chinese whispers, let alone twat face Hubbard's sack of sh*te.

People don't really wanna see him in movies, he has just been in stuff that people wanted to see. So it's either watch the film and just grin and bare the fact he is in it, or keep moving on. I chose to keep moving on. Collateral was the last film I watched with Cruise in it. I stopped after that... why some would ask? To be honest, it was a Michael Mann film, and anything done by Michael Mann is a must see picture.

[bassman]

I just ran across this on IMDB....

"Trey Parker and Matt Stone have filmed a last-minute episode of South Park in response to Scientologist Isaac Hayes' request to be released from his contract because the show mocked his religion. The creators are launching the tenth season of the series on US network Comedy Central on Wednesday, with an episode featuring Hayes' character Chef. Because South Park episodes only take six days to create, Stone and Parker were able to react to the current controversy soon after it happened. According to a Comedy Central press release, the show will feature, "The triumphant homecoming of school chef Jerome McElroy. While Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman are thrilled to have their old friend back, they notice that something about Chef seems different. When Chef's strange behavior starts getting him in trouble, the boys pull out all stops to save him."


To be honest, it was a Michael Mann film, and anything done by Michael Mann is a must see picture.

I think he's slightly lost his touch over recent years. "Collateral" was decent but nothing to write home about. His last great film was "Heat"(1995).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology

A link for a whole load of info on scientolgy. also, the south park episode accuratly shows their messed up beliefs...you'd figure that people would be smart enough to disregard a "religion" created by a noted science fiction author as nothing more then the fiction that it is.

I think alot of you may know my stand on Tom Cruise..alot of you know my situation and the fact that I'm on Anti-depressents at this point and time, and you most likely know Tom's stand on the issue. If the tart actually did research, and was a patient who had to use them, he'd realize that they work, well at least in my case. I'll admit, as all medical professionals, that they do not solve depression, but they play a large role in it. My counciller told me it's about half/half between anti-depressants and councilling, and I agree.
Tom Cruises statements are irresponsible, ill-concieved, ill-informed, and just plain immature too boot. Again, I stress the fact that he has the intelligence of a pile of cat fur, and even that is insulting to cat fur. And about Issac Hayes...I respected him...that is until I noticed his utter hypocracy. He has no problem mocking catholics and christians (me being a Christian as well) but when it comes to his messed up beliefs, he pulls out the stops and goes ape s*it as I put it.

Thank Allmighty God that Scientology isn't recognized as an official religion in Canada, and therefore isn't applicable to tax exemptions and such.

oh, and heres a nice little quote I pulled offa the wikipedia page...


Hubbard decided that psychiatrists were an ancient evil that had been a problem for billions of years. He cast them in the role of assisting Xenu's genocide of 75 million years ago. In a 1982 bulletin entitled "Pain and Sex", Hubbard declares that "pain and sex were the INVENTED TOOLS of degradation", having been devised eons ago by psychiatrists "who have been on the [time] track a long time and are the sole cause of decline in this universe." (Hubbard, HCO Bulletin of August 26, 1982)


anyway, thats it for me...I have no respect for any of these practitioners at all, and I never will. You all know my view point, add what you want, critique what you want, but keep in mind. I AM on Anti-depressents, and they DO work to help with my Depression and thoughts of self harm. However, councilling also plays a major part in helping as well..I'm out now. See ya later.

[Tullaryx]

Well, Tom Cruise and his Scientology buddies may have just picked on the wrong two people with their strong-arm tactics. I can't wait to see what Matt Stone and Trey Parker have to counter Tom and his bunch.
