OT Tom Cruise rant | The Boneyard

OT Tom Cruise rant

Really can't trust anything coming out of the mouth of someone that short.
 
I'll also say, color me jaded that this wasn't at least somewhat scripted or pre-planned. You're on a movie set with cameras everywhere. Anyone going off the handle for any reason is just a push of a button away from forever being memorialized on video.

Also, after a few of the crew members walked off the set, they announced they were shutting down shooting for the year and that Tom jetted off on his plane to South Florida to spend Christmas with his son. Timing is quite coincidental.

First thing I thought was "this was obviously planned." The guy is neck deep in scientology--everything he does is scripted.
 
The rant went on to long.

Sometimes you just gotta say " What the duck "
 
I've never found his 'angry voice' to be very intimidating. Especially when he's really loud... it's almost as annoying as Boeheim's voice. And face.

I am skeptical also. He is a very calculating dude. Also....who talks to people that way?
 
You would think it’s staged could be, but I think this is who he is. All time greats are wired different, check out the Steve Jobs movie on Netflix.

He runs that whole franchise. They are a test case for movie production starting up again. If they f up, it's going to impact thousands of people. Not a fan of Cruise for many reasons, but he's 100% right here. It's his on the line. I'd do the same in his shoes, except mine are size 12 and his are probably size 8. I don't wear lifts either
 
I’m siding with Tom Cruise here he demands perfection gotta like it.

Great actor.

It was like most of his roles, over the top Cruise being Cruise. Not all that convincing if 80% of the boneyard knows it's staged.

He's already taken over a Rome hospital and created a scene where they're filming and getting in the way of Covid patients and staff. The guy doesn't give a s*** about anyone other than Tom Cruise.

I don’t mean that the rant was great acting. I mean that he is a great actor. Total whack job but gives his all to his job from all appearances. I loved many of his movies because of how good he was in his role.

I'd say he's a great movie star and occasionally a great actor. He's sort of like Clooney to me in that you're always conscious of the fact that it's him when he's on screen, and he gets by mostly on charisma and charm.

I sort of wish he'd ditch the whole Scientology thing, reckon with who he is really is, and maybe do something interesting for a change.

Punani seems equally important. 8 months, dammit! No 6'3" lacrosse player shall have a woman over Tom Cruise!!!!!
 
This dude actually is a good actor in an era of crappy actors. He has people believing this is real. That's impressive.

Apart from that, he's a total loon who has power to abuse Scientologists.

I know. He's a great movie star but I don't consider him a great actor. I enjoy a lot of his movies and he has been really good in a few roles but I always still feel like I'm watching Tom Cruise. There are other big stars who are chameleons and I forget I'm watching them. Daniel Day-Lewis, Gary Oldman, Denzel, Christian Bale, Benicio del Toro, Ed Norton, Sean Penn, McConaughey, Jake Gyllenhaal etc.

Wanted to like this but it is deleted. Consider it liked.

(FWIW, I'm hear it to "I wanna rock" probably because he was basically riffing off the intro.)

"I've got a good mind to slap your face."

(FWIW, It sounds to me like it was initially a tantrum and then he decided to go into a TC character for a rant to cover it up.)
