Enough Tom Cruise already...

Post by Philaflava »

Yeah, I know this thread isn't helping matters but I gotta vent somehow.

http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies/ ... index.html

Read that and get disgusted.

Look, I think he's a great actor but he is also the world's most annoying actor too. Fuck Katie, fuck his L. Ron Hubbard Scientology. The Spielberg movie looks cool, but fuck all his press junkets. Fuck his beefin' with Matt Lauer and his water in the face incident.

And it's not that really disagree with him on the fact there maybe aliens, it's just how he fucking is so sure of everything he says.
Asked in an interview with the tabloid daily Bild if he believed in aliens, Cruise said: "Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe?

When I feel something is wack and overhyped, I find it best to not comment on them-one less voice in the throng type. I'm with you though, but I never was a Cruise fan. Oddly enough, I agree with Cruise that there's a pretty good chance aliens exist. I wouldn't put it so (ironically enough) arrogantly.

Tell me why this nigga (pun intended) was on BET's 106 and park for like an hour last week?

Why are black people so eager to promote a movie with, as far as I can tell, no prominent roles for black people?

When I saw these alien headlines today I was praying that he was going to spill the beans and talk about how aliens are responsible for humans. From everything I hear this is a Scientology secret you only learn high in the ranks. That shit would have been fantastic.

And word to Kid B. Its like this motherfucker just got off his meds three months ago and is starting to wild out.

All that being said, I am really enjoying the new Tom Cruise.

what the heck is the point of that article? I mean, its perfectly reasonable to believe that aliens exist.

anyway, I'm getting really annoyed about all this shit regarding Tom Cruise. I think he's a talented actor, but I don't think I'll be able to take him seriously anymore

With all honesty, I couldn't give two shits about his thoughts and lifestyle. His acting skills are limited too, the same old unconving tantrums and over emphasized eye contact.

I can't really hate on Tom Cruise, cause to be perfectly honest... I don't think chemical imbalances exist either. I think all the medication we pump into kids is ridiculous. And adults who assume they need medication are falling for the pharmecutical trap as well. It's a big money-maker and these drug companies make people think that they need these medications. All we're doing is making things worse for the future... we keep fighting every sickness with drugs and all we're doing is making these germs and bacteria stronger the next time around. I don't take medication for anything. If I'm sick, I let my body fight it off. If you're depressed, you don't need medication to fight it... all that's doing is tricking your brain into thinking you feel better. It's the same as smoking a blunt... you feel better, but then you crash... and I'm sure these people who finally decide they don't need the medication crash and then they feel like the medication was actually helping them. If you're depressed... it's your mental state... not a chemical imbalance. And as far as the whole psychologist thing goes... I believe that too... you don't need someone else to tell you what's wrong with you. You need to change your lifestyle... I don't need someone to tell me that I need medication or that I'm feeling a certain way because of something that happened in the past, etc. Maybe people should start listening to what Tom has to say instead of criticizing his views. I don't think he's that far off.

i do agree with you to a degree. however...the acknowledgement of imbalances/mental illness is FAR from endorsement of "the pharmecutical trap".

different people benefit from different natural remedies, diets, etc. you shouldn't run to the pharmacy everytime you have a bout of depression. you should however examine why you are feeling that way. if you're depressed/stressed/etc. because you work overtime everyday, never see your family, never exercise, eat fast food everyday...xanax is not going to solve those problems.

more extreme conditions can be dealt with similarly. bottomline...i think you have a lot more control over your own mind and body than a lot of doctors give us credit for.

My uncle's shizophrenic, but I haven't seen him in years. I'm no doctor... is that actually a chemical imbalance? I would think that's more like something not being "wired" correctly. Or something more significantly wrong than a chemical imbalance. I'm thinking bipolar would be more like a chemical imbalance. And I've known people who say they're bipolar... and I'm sorry... they just have issues that they could easily fix if they chose to... it's more like an excuse in my opinion. I'm probably just as bipolar as those idiots. We all have bad days or we go from being happy to wanting to break shit. It's called life... you ain't bipolar and you don't need medication. Deal with it.

I think your comments in the post below your quote are "right on." You go boyeee!
