Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

No, he really IS insane.

Tuesday night's TDS had Lewis Black talking about TC. At the end, Black shoed a clip of TC saying "And I don't believe there is any such thing as a chemical imbalance". Black then ended the segment by saying, "Oh Yeah? What do you call what you are going through RIGHT NOW?".

It made me laugh.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm becoming convinced that Tom Cruise: Scientology:: Mel Gibson: Catholicism.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

"And I don't believe there is any such thing as a chemical imbalance".
I just think this statement is hilarious because it's an extremely provable fact he's denying. Given the sheer number of other imblanaces that are possible in the human body, it's amusing that he can believe the brain is somehow exempt. Sure, you can get tumors and lesions and other things in it, but an imbalance of chemicals? Never!

Thrive to spite them

Given the sheer number of other imblanaces that are possible in the human body,

Those aren't phsyical imbalances they are caused by an imbalance of evil spirits thetans. Which you can cure by going clear. Or vitamins. If money is no object.

Ah, there's my problem. I misunderstand Tom because I don't speak craxy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. Do we think he achieved a new level recently, or something? Why suddenly so crazy, Tom???? Is it the freedom from the body Thetans??

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Do we think he achieved a new level recently, or something?

That's what Salon is theorizing: [link]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think the Thetans are getting a bad rap. They need to be able to tell their side of the story.

I heard a rumour that the odd behaviour recently is because he went off his ADHD medication. What with them being evil and all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But as a Scientologist, he shouldn't even have been on meds. Not within the last 20 years, anyway.
