Why does the media all of a sudden hate Tom Cruise? A couple of movies ago he was Hollywood's golden boy.?

He's old and he's still good looking... Also he can write his own checks... \n\nHollywood hates people who arent under their control. Didnt they hate Mel Gibson after he made it big with the Passion?

What? He seems perfectly normal === aside from talking all goofy about scientology, jumping up and down on Oprah's sofa, jumping up and down on Yahoo's chair, wigging out on various shows, being sprayed in the face at celebrity events, and just being a flat out goof ball.\n\n\nOH, and I PROMISE never to spend another dollar on any Tom Cruise film, merchandise, or anything that he is involved in -- EVER AGAIN!

I think it's because people still think if him as "jock turned actor" and his recent activities show dimensions of character people didn't think he had so they don't like it. Also jealousy over the $$$ he makes could play a factor in this too.\n\nCall me a "Hollywood Skeptic" because I used to work in "the biz" and hated the people in it who can be such self centered bleepholes. Which is why I moved into non-profit and healthcare as at least most people in those fields want to help others. It's also why eventhough I liked what L. Ron Hubbard has to say I hesitated for awhile before becoming a Scientologist.\n\nThat being said I think the furor over the Tom Cruise thing is because most people are unaware of his sizeable non-profit work both with organizations who use Hubbard based methods outside the Church of Scientology, and with other organizations completely outside things Hubbard. FYI L. Ron Hubbard is the founder of the Church of Scientology and the primary force behind it's writings, practises, etc.\n\nWhen Tom Cruise rails against Modern Psychology a lot of people go "this doesn't make sense he's just an loveable jock turned actor." Unfortunately what they are missing are his non-profit background (which he doesn't brag about like some other celebs) and that he's getting the data from various scientists who debate these issues on a regular basis like Thomas Szasz, Fred A. Baughman Jr., Dr. Whitaker, Dr. Mary Ann Block, etc whom Hubbard quotes from and the organization for mental health reform called CCHR that Tom supports believe in. \n\nThey think he is making himself out to be an expert when in fact he is only expressing an opinion based off what he has learned from others in that field. \n\nHere are some of those people:\n\nhttp://www.szasz.com/\nhttp://www.adhdfraud.org/\nhttp://www.blockcenter.com\nhttp://www.drwhitaker.com/\nhttp://www.cchr.org/index.cfm/5294...\n\nI hope this helps.\n\nBTW the Hubbard advice on childbirth doesn't say you can't make any noise at all or take drugs. It just basically says that it's best to avoid these as much as possible during birth if it can be avoided. Silent birth was very fashionable in California the early 1970's and my mom (who is not a Scientologist but a died-in-the wool Roman Catholic) did it because it was thought as the best to be natural.

Though Tom Cruise's reps are heartily denying it now.  The story is that the idiot TC threatened to ban promotion of the upcoming Mission Impossible 3 if the episode wasn't pulled.  As Viacom owns Comedy Network, the pressure was on and Comedy Network caved.  It seems funny to me that the first time the episode aired, no one said a thing.  Now there is a huge uproar and Isaac Hayes quits.  I've lost a lot more respect for him now.

Katie & Tom, what a bore! After the crap with Brooke Shields and Scientology junk, Tom Cruise is simply a jerk.  Sorry, but come on, do what you want but keep your opinions of religion to yourself, that's personal.  And he has never given birth, so shut up about that too!

I hope people aren't "in love" with them.  I know I can't stand to watch Tom Cruise anymore in interviews, movies, etc.  I hope MI:III and all his future movies tank so that we can stop hearing so much about him.  (I just think Katie Holmes has been brainwashed by her own irrational childhood crush and one day she'll realize what a load of crap this "romance" of theirs is.)

I think Hollywood has too much influence on our lives in general. Everything from politics to how many children to adopt. It seems that people have gotten to lazy to think for themselves and are easily swayed by big money interests and it's opinions.

I think Tom Cruise is crazy. He acts like he is smoking the reefer. I think that Katie should have never got involved with him. He seems to control her. She should have left him before she got pregnant.

Tom Cruise has obviously lost his mind. The more attention the media gives him the worse he gets. Who CARES how they have their baby???????

As an obsessed member of entertainment news im not exactly sure where you are getting your information...but be sure that the national enquirer is not an accurate source of information...Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes baby was just born and considering that nothing has been reported that their engagement is off i seriously doubt that tom has done anything to demand custody..especially since he has a movie to promote...if he were going to do something as stupid as this trust me...he would wait till after his movie premiered!

Why all the debate?\nAre none of you aware that no less a person than the current governor of California was once pregnant?  I saw it myself at the local Multiplex...\nI saw a previous governor of California at the cinema years ago - who then went on to become president.  Then a few years later, it was his co-stars turn!

I agree that Tom Cruise is a little bit out there lately, but the man knows acting!!!!  I thought this movie was great!!!  The story was much more exciting than the last two, and the action was fabulous.  I think one of the best things about it were the locations they filmed in absolutely beautiful.  If you like hard core action, and a slightly unrealistic story this movie is definitely for you!!!

I liked his earlier books and his first 2 movies, but now it seems like he's just trying too hard to maintain his image.   I was on his mailing list for a while and had myself removed.  All the emails were the same.  He says that he will insult/investigate all politicans equally and he did initially, but I believe that time is over.

He previously played two gay characters, one in a soap opera and one on some prime time series. That's probably why.\n\nI grew up with BJ and he's a good guy. It's sad to see people bash him like this. Maybe they're just jealous.

Rumor was that California was filled up with gays and wackos in the 50's, 60's and 70's. I think by electing such a dumb ass that they have proved it. How on earth could anybody bring themselves to vote for him is beyond me his movies wasn't even that good.
