IF someone you think is evil makes something good, you enjoy it to spite them! The game, you've just lost it. | ||

As far as Tom Cruise goes I'm kind of on the fence with how I feel about him. I've pretty much never heard anything negative about him from his coworkers or anyone in the movie industry, although it's hard to overlook some of the insane things that occur in Scientology (and afaik he's extremely high ranking in the church). He is a great actor though with a ton of classic films. Some of the stunts he's done have been insane too. | ||

I think that scientology promotes celebrities to "high-ranks" for marketing purposes more than anything else. Not to say he doesn't have any culpability for perpetuating the scam, but I would be a bit surprised if Cruise actually had any say in how the organization is run. From what iv read, that guy david miscavige runs it with an iron fist. If anyone's interested there's a really interesting article up on the NewYorker about how scientology uses celebs and people in general: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2011/02/14/the-apostate-lawrence-wright | ||

(I think generally speaking the latest 3 movies are all better than 2 + 3) And yeah - all i want is to be able to eternal sunshine my brain so that i can play outer wilds for the first time again. | ||
