I mean we all knew he was a psycho. Just like that time he killed Oprah with Force Lightning

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yet somehow, Oprah returned.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 6 points 2 months ago

He struck her down but she became more powerful than he could possibly imagine.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 5 points 2 months ago

This is fake news. Tom Cruise never killed Oprah with lightning, he was just tickling her with it.

[–] Thteven@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

She had it coming after the incident with the bees.

If any Scientology member is in any media, it is on my "do not watch" list. I will never support that cult financially. And by the way, where is Shelley? She was last seen 2007 at her fathers funeral, and the police doesn't do shit.

Debbie Stovelman, however, is alive and well. Boom boom!

WDYM WTF? I once tried to commit suicide by shooting myself in the chest 3x. I was still alive so I ate some concrete, grabbed a different gun and shot myself in the head.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah this is like the old joke where a black dude was found in a ditch with 17 stabs in the back, and police determined it was a suicide

I believe she is the wife of the current leader of the church.

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago

Oh, yeah, she'sdead

I've always thought how ridiculously on the nose it was for her to star in a TV show where she was breaking out of a religious cult...and that she was in one IRL. Especially that her IRL cult has been linked to murders, silencing witnesses, and a miriad of other illegal acts. She just swapped roles apparently.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Damnit. I'm surprised I didn't know.

eyup havent watched tv in years basically and it's all her fault

[–] nickiwest@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

That explains why she's in so many things.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (3 children)

He also sucks the life out of nearly every role he's cast in (the one pictured above being a rare exception.) The guy is a walking void of charisma, and I avoid his movies due to the simple fact that they're made worse by his involvement.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 31 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Edge of tomorrow - he is fine in that perfect movie
Tropic Thunder - he is hilarious
rain man
the last samurai
minority report
magnolia - perfect fit for the role

[–] leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 months ago

He's great in Collateral. He plays great villains.

[–] TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"Vanilla Sky", and his acting in it, is plain fantastic, I have to hand it to him.

Reacher - is a big scary man but the movie tries to hide that from you bc Tom is small and it’s funny.

[–] bufalo1973@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You should read "all you need is kill". Edge of tomorrow butchered the book. The same happens with Minority Report.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (4 children)

No one makes Philip K Dick movies that are true to the book, but they often make interesting movies inspired by the book.

I haven't watched The Mummy reboot but what I have seen of it was atrocious.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

It gave us this. That's something, at least.

Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise crazy, just be glad it's him not you

[–] renrenPDX@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you had Tom Cruise's troubles, you might be Tom Cruise crazy too.

[–] lemmy_at_em@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You'd flash your big white shiny smile You'd buy expensive shoes

[–] renrenPDX@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

But you'd be the only man on Earth, who couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise, oh no You couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise

This is one of the Mandela effect things, where the correct title (well, right now, in this universe) is the vampire. Where does this image come from?!

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Whenever you see or hear about a Mandela Effect thing like this it’s important to remember that 50% of people are of below average intelligence.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Shit, I remember it being 50% of people are above average intelligence. Guess I got split into the stupid reality :(

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago

Even if it's real, it could just be a typo and editorial oversight.

That was Tom Cruise? Really ruins the movie for me, thanks.
