He was so over the top... reminded me of Molly Shannon on SNL when she'd play that talk show host (doing kicks and shit like that).
Classic.

hehe it's really not as ridiculous as i thought...Oprah says, "THe boy is gone," and he's like, "I'm STANDING on your COUCH."

the audience is so goofy..."WOOOOOOOOOAH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I watched the entire show, he really was ridiculous.  Over the top, yelling at everything, loving the entire human race, feeding us bite after bite of sweet saccharine.  It was so queer... as in odd.

You're so cynical.  I wish I could love the entire human race.  It should be a good thing.

but he doesn't love the entire human race.  he just wants us to think he does.

No, I think he's too dumb to know what loving the human race would be like. Mother Theresa, she probably did love the human race. Tom Cruise....not so much.

I don't think Tom Cruise is stupid.  He WANTS to love everybody and that's admirable.  He seems to be trying to just live life excitedly and all that.

He's comfortable in his own skin.  I'm still happy for him.  His behavior is only strange relative to everyone else in the world--but he's one of the few people who dares to just be himself and not give a damn what others think of him.  He's an individual, to be sure.  But nothing he's done suggests that he's stupid.

And he makes good points about things.  He goes too far in DEMONIZING psychology and prescription drugs, but certainly he makes some good points by suggesting that the human mind is strong enough on its own if people.

He's idealistic.  And I never thought there was anything wrong with being idealistic.  Just think of all the idealistic people from the past that people thought were crazies that are now respected.  I just think everybody's too quick to judge him.  He's DIFFERENT, no doubt.  MAYBE? that's a good thing.

Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

I have to say, I get the same vibe from him these days that I get from porn stars that say they love getting it in the face.

Cruise "Tried To Convert Johansson"

Scarlett Johansson pulled out of appearing in the second Mission: Impossible sequel after Tom Cruise tried to convert her to scientology, according to reports. Cruise, who produces the action adventures, met with Johansson ahead of casting for the upcoming Mission: Impossible 3 and took her to one of the controversial religion's headquarters, claims Radarmagazine.Com. A source tells the website, "After two hours of proselytizing, Cruise opened a door to reveal a second room full of upper-level Scientologists who had been waiting to dine with the pair, at which point the cool-headed ingénue politely excused herself." Officially Johansson quit the film because of scheduling conflicts after the film was delayed so Cruise could make War Of The Worlds.
