Tom Cruise Too Scary with Eyepatch, Say Film Execs

Yeah, I won’t be paying to see this.  Might as well just hand the money directly to his ironically nazi-like $cientology cult! 
Those of you who don’t understand what the big deal about this cult is, seriously, look it up before hopping up on your “persecution” soap box.

I’ve seen the trailer and I want to see this movie. It looks good, very good I must say. And a good movie is a good movie. By the way, I am short too but I never thought that was a crime… Other people are fat and that is not a crime either… It is more important the good in their hearts than the sizes of their bodies. There is obviously a tremendous lack of education and respect in some people who comment anything on the internet, without showing their faces, of course.

I don’t know if your description of the role Cruise plays—“a failed hitman hired to off Hitler”—is your own misunderstanding of the movie, or the movie’s distortion of history.  Whichever it is, though, it does a disservice to the real Claus von Stauffenberg.  Stauffenberg was no “hitman”, “hired” to kill Hitler.  He was a man who felt it so important to remove Hitler from power, permanently, that he was prepared to give his own life to make it happen.  A hitman would never propose to make a suicide attack on his target, for the simple reason that his motivation is money and he must be alive to spend that money.  Whether you agree with Stauffenberg’s ideals or not, it is clear that it was for ideals that Stauffenberg attempted the assassination of the Fuhrer.

Creepy foreshadow. The CoS leader, David Miscavige, described as an abusive psychopath, is said to ride around in an armored car. It’s been suggested that someone within the ranks, might try to off him. Of course anyone who wouldn’t QUESTION, much less step one foot inside something called a CHURCH “Celebrity Center,” probably doesn’t question details too much.

When you spoke of ruthlessly calling ethics out on yourself Tom, did that involve locking yourself in a tiny contained area infested with roaches for weeks (RPF)?  Thought not.

Ever wonder how a system could be so fragile, that even allowing yourself to consider that stories from the outside might be true, and investigating them independently could be corruptive?  A crime in fact?

Driving curiosity, these celebs eh?

I’m definitely going to see this movie. Not because I would be a fan of Tom Cruise, no, but because the whole history of the July 20 plot has always intrigued me. So to actually see it on screen, in the grandiose eye-patching… err, eye-catching Hollywood style is a dream come true.

Too bad that the premiere in my corner of the world is delayed to mid-February. Oh well…
