SICKENING and unbelievable that so so many in the public still STILL support this man whose the public face of a evil abusive cult AND a dead beat father!...
Do so many not have a ounce of integrity, decency, character, honor or empathy as long as little ole them are entertained by a movie star and for 2 hours?.... What if cruise was the public face of the KKK? would that matter to any of them either?..
who in their right mind supports a man who thinks any and all who are not in his cult are "degraded beings" and "silly wogs" 2 terms that are on the level of the "N" word!... LITERALLY insulting them, laughing at them and wants to take their/our money?
Sure, many are still ignorant on what cruise is involved in (which is in itself surprising by now in 2022!) but even when you try to inform them, they don't care, they don't want to know!
HOW DID PEOPLE get so apathetic and self absorbed and celebrity worshipping pathologically so??...

Tom,
Remember when you said your niece's boyfriend's 65-year-old grandfather died of Covid, and that was your "proof" of Covid being a scary virus?
I laughed my ass off.
So you know ONE old fuck who died, and that's proof of a lethal pandemic?
I'm getting scared.
-
Covid. HAHHAHAHHAHA!
-
Covid. HAHHAHAHHAHA!
Haha. ;D
You're great, Tom!
As for Tom in the OP - I really have no animosity for anyone on here [one main exception], and I don't want to be on bad terms with anyone, but maybe some of American Democrat Getbiggers don't understand that Canada basically had a 2-year lockdown.
Totally messed up my mental state, and so I take seriously anyone who support the plandemic joke [credit to Fortress for that term].
American Democrats take for granted that they have a constitutionally guaranteed second amendment. We have no such safeguard from government overreach here in Canada.
But look at Tom's utterly asinine comment here about the plandemic joke:
my niece's boyfriend's grandfather got covid and passed, he was only 65 and had no prior issues of any kind..
my sister got covid 60 years old and recovered thankfully, still recovering in fact, as she had multiple symptoms..
LOL!!!!!
WOW, I'M SO SCARED, TOM [from the OP].
Tommy:
Thanks for being a voice of reason on here.

What if cruise was the public face of the KKK? would that matter to any of them either?..
You're asking this on Getbig? ::)
Look Tom - I'm not "racist", in that I don't pre-judge anyone based on their race. I judge individuals as individuals. Wiggs is one of my lifetime favourite people. It just about brought a tear to my eye when he came back.
And even though the feeling is not mutual, I am a big fan of Vince Goodrum. He is great for breaking news, inside information on bodybuilding, and I personally consider him a great asset to the board.
Both Wiggs and Vince would make great neighbours. Wiggs' uncle also drove me around Las Vegas all day to find camera equipment one year.
I do, however, judge groups as groups. So with that said, did you know that 93% of Black murders are Black-on-Black?
It's sad that the Black community has this gang/drug problem. A lot of innocent Black men have died as a result. This is even happening in MY CITY, where Black gangs have now taken over the coke scene here.
What I'm saying is this:
The KKK? TOM, REALLY?
Yeah, all those KKK murders happening every year. ::)
God, do liberals live on MARS?
No one here is concerned about the KKK, Tom.
Also, what are you suggesting? That Getbig supports Cancel Culture?
Tom, this isn't r/bodybuilding.
Might you be confusing Getbig for some far left fitness message board?
You want us to stop watching Tom Cruise movies because he's part of a religion that you as a leftist is intolerant of [what ISN'T the left intolerant of]?
No, Tom - most of us don't care.
-
All Tom Cruise movie were great if you were an eighties kid cuz you grew up with his shitty flicks.....but if not,they sucked balls bigtime.
-
We want to be entertained! We want another beach volleyball scene! (Nh)
I think it's beach football this time (from the trailer). Also it looks to be a Pro-America movie, hopefully not burdened down with all that woke crap, which is why many are hoping to see it. We'll see.

He's not a deadbeat dad. His wife took off and hid for years and didn't allow him contact with his daughter. She should have been charged with kidnapping.
His religion has nothing to do with his acting and doesn't matter one bit. Most of the anti Scientology stuff is from disgruntled ex members who are obsessed with taking it down like Leah Remini.
-
Actual veterans knew what a total shit movie "Top Gun" was. This one will only be more implausible and fake, and of course, more woke.
TC is a midget phaggot whose death will warm my heart.

Matt?....
I never posted to "scare people" ... however, Covid was and is real, in fact, I'm recovering right now from covid pneumonia and I did everything right and I still got it! That is all I ever mentioned about covid and those who are related to me so it was never not real...
second, my use of the KKK was a analogy, nothing more. If cruise was the public face of the KKK or any other evil organization, would people still not care? and if not why not? Because they should! People don't care that they are contributing to a cult and that this same cult is LITERALLY laughing at and insulting them (and wants their money too?!) by the terms they call ALL OF US who are not in the cult...
WHo would be okay with this? " yeah, call me a so and so on the level of using the "N" word and abuse (financially, emotionally, physically) members, ex-members and stalk and criticize and sue and attack critics, don't care that THE WIFE of the leader has not been seen in public for over 12 years and counting, the mysterious deaths and missing persons, but yeah, i'll keep on supporting the public face of it all, because hey, i just want to be entertained for 2 hours? who cares about those OTHER people"??!

Hench: cruise is the public face of the evil scam abusive cult that is scientology! they are literally a combination of north korea, organized crime, pyramid money scheme scam, country club of the have and have nots, and self help mumbo jumbo nonsense created by l. ron hubbard, a flunked out college, pathological liar, bigamist, mentally insane man who wanted to be someone and become wealthy hence the "religion" angle, who main claim to fame before creating scientology was a science fiction/pulp fiction writer....
humble narcissist: i suggest you do the homework on what happened with cruise and katie holmes. Cruise did not even FIGHT for half custody, much less full custody? Why would someone with all the power in the relationship not do this??? HE was given "generous" visitation rights and has never used them? Because? NO ONE, NO ONE could prevent anyone from seeing their child if they really wanted to, so the whole holmes isn't allowing him or "kidnapped" their child is a ridiculous statement, it just is....Never mind, there is also the fact that his cult has a "disconnection policy" and holmes and their daughter Suri, are now considered by cruise and his cult as "sp's" and "pt's"...
Cruise only pays the court ordered child support and nothing more.. YEARS ago during a lawsuit against "in touch" magazine, cruise ON THE STAND AND UNDER OATH, declared he already hadn't seen Suri in months. Because??? and that was well over 8 years ago...
and i'm sorry, but who we are as persons and what we are involved in, is MORE important and SUPPOSE TO BE! more important than what we do for a living!..
and No, the mountain of information from around the world, countries actually banning or severely limiting scientology and many critics, documentaries, news reports, books and articles written by THOSE NEVER IN SCIENTOLOGY I MIGHT ADD are way more than your suggestion of it's only a few disgruntled ex-members and leah remini speaking out against it! They have actually have lost more members over the years than they have members now! And of course, this cult even lies about how many members they have!.. Currently the best estimates is 20 thousand true members worldwide, down from their heyday of 20 years ago, with 100 thousand worldwide! this cult tells their members they have millions and millions of members around the world!...

I never gave Tom Cruise much thought. Good to know someone is keeping a close eye on him.

No shit, meathead - there is NOTHING ANY OF COULD HAVE DONE TO PREVENT THIS VIRUS. NOTHING.
It's just that daft people like you decided it was a good idea to give up our civil rights to the elites and to STILL FAIL in stopping this virus, but SUCCEED in increasing $3.9 trillion in wealth to the upper class while DECREASING the wealth of the middle class by $3.9 trillion!
Because your "niece's boyfriend's grandfather who was 65" died of Covid.
LOL.
By chance, did you take the short bus to school, Tom?
Still wearing your face diaper that didn't work? ? 😂🤣

fuck tom cruise

cruise is the public face of the evil scam abusive cult that is scientology!
YOU JUST BACKED A HYPED PANDEMIC FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS WHICH DIDN'T AMOUNT TO ANYTHING MORE THAN TWO BAD FLU SEASONS SO FAR. YOU VOTE FOR A PARTY THAT THINKS MEN CAN GIVE BIRTH.
Who the FUCK are you to talk about scams and cults, Tom?
Tom, I sometimes search for this post online by typing [no quotes]
Getbig.com niece's boyfriend's grandfather
And I LAUGH MY ASS OFF.
Look at this moronic post:
my niece's boyfriend's grandfather got covid and passed, he was only 65 and had no prior issues of any kind..
my sister got covid 60 years old and recovered thankfully, still recovering in fact, as she had multiple symptoms..
HAHAHAHAHAHA. 😂😂😂😂
OH MAN - you know ONE OLD FUCK who died, and that's your "proof" of a lethal pandemic. HE WAS 65 YEARS OLD, TOM. That's a senior citizen, in case you're having a hard time accepting that yourself as you age.
Your "niece's boyfriend's grandfather who was 65", HAHAHAHA. 😂😂
-
fuck tom cruise
Any particular reason why, epic?
I think the last movie I saw of his in the theatre [or at all] was either Mission Impossible...II? The one with Philip Seymour Hoffman, or War or the Worlds [whichever one is more recent].
I thought he was great in Rain Man and The Firm - Risky Business, earlier than that. Some others.
Has he turned into a crazy old loon?
Is he becoming an ultra social justice cuck like Arnold?
Something else?
-
Looks great for his age, etc, but I thought he could have kept his shirt on in Reacher. Or reached for a little var. Can't believe that blocky little man was fucking Nicole Kidman in her prime.
"A woman like that could teach a man a lot about himself." Hnnngh.
When I saw Dead Calm I was psychologically associatiating with Billy Zane. The guy has been at sea for months, then Nicole Kidman turns up in acting all cockteasy in a swimsuit. What do you think is going to happen? He's probably a perfectly nice guy after he cums. Just let a lonesome sailor do his thing, Nicole.

Saw it yesterday at an IMAX. Overall I liked it. The negatives where is could have been a remake save for Maverick. The script followed the original almost to a tee. The volleyball scene was replaced by the football scene. The opening had testosterone pumped pilots in the same bar bumping chests... dissing Maverick who later showed up as their instructor right out of Tg1. But in IMAX, the fighter jet scenes made the movie... If you are looking for a trip down memory lane and want to relive Top Gun, this is your movie.

Seeing it this afternoon (nh)

OP should worry about himself.
hi! okay, so i'm going thru mid life crisis. soon i will be 45 later this summer and i still don't have what i consider a real career making real good money!
is it too late for me or what?! seriously!
background: i fucked around for alot of years, dropping out of school before going back 13 years later to get a b.a. in communications graduating in 2001! thinking i wanted to be in the film industry as an executive for a studio or production company. was in l.a. for a few years doing the peon jobs as production assistants and office assistants working my ass off 12 hour days dealing with 99 percent assholes and doing things that if i was 18 i would do but once you get to be a grown man ( i swear at my late 30's i must have been the oldest p.a./office asst. ever!) you cannot do! (i.e. picking up dog poop! getting yelled at for copying a script and page 62 is sticking out one millimeter!, etcetera, etcetera!)
left california in late 2003 so sickened and disgusted by that industry i didn't want anything to do with tv,film,radio or anything media related. so i guess my degree in communications was a waste people tell me?
so, back in 2005/2006 thought i should try to get a job in a "real" profession/career that there is a demand for, so i thought physical therapist like perhaps working for a sports team someday. then i found out that you have to go to school for like 6 years and get a doctorate degree to be a physical therapist! at my age 6 years is like 12! also the fact that i have a bachelor's degree already meant that i would have to get school loans and no grants! so were talking 20,000 a year or so for 6 years! no way! i already owe 30,000.00 from my previous school loans! i would be paying of school loans when i'm supposed to be saving up money to retire on! literally!
so then i thought "hmm, maybe i'll just be a physical therapy assistant as my full time job since the training is only 2 years and i wouldn't owe anywhere near the amount of school loans if i became a full fledge therapist and that perhaps for a couple of hours in the evening i could be a personal trainer at my gym and in the long run, working as a physical therapy asst and personal trainer i would make as much money as a therapist in the long run....
so, i started going to school to be a physical therapy assistant, however i soon realized a few things 1) it was harder than i thought it was going to be 2) all my instructors told me that for the first few years at least i would end up working at a nursing home or something like that before i ever got to work (if ever) a sports team and 3) i realized that physical therapy assistants don't make that much money perhaps somewhere in the vicinity of 13.00 to 18.00 bucks an hour! even if you do it for 20,30 years! that sucks! so i dropped out!....
now, i'm working only part time as a manager at a recreational center in the midwest hating it, the pay sucks and there is no chance for me to move up and i hate everyone i work with! and since it's only part time i'm actually living with my brother which while i love him, it sucks that i'm a grown man and living this way. meanwhile, he's 5 years younger than me, has a wife and 2 small kids and a nice house and he went to one, that is 1 semester of junior college and dropped out but years ago, he had a friend who had a friend who got him this job making surgical tools and so he wears a lab coat and has a desk and a microscope and now makes 60,000.00 a year doing that? and i'm the smart and educated one?! go figure!
so now, i'm sitting here thinking : where do i go from here? granted, i look alot younger and act alot younger than almost 45, but i'm still my age you know! and i'm tired of being poor and struggling and now with the economy the way it is nationwide, i'm searching for answers!!!!!!!!!!
part of me is thinking, it's too late for me to have a real successful high paying career because 1) i would have to go to school for something medical or finance like and i really don't care to do anything in those fields and 2) at my age i can't go back to school for 4 to 6 years and 3) i'm getting to that age that people wont' hire me because of my age although that's discrimination it's also reality they want to hire some young 20something guy
ive lately been thinking about what i'm good at and that's writing and talking and since i have a communications degree people tell me i should look into radio like i would be a great radio d.j. or radio talk show host, since i have the voice and personality for it, and since i like to write i could also at the same time perhaps write a column, or do a movie review column for a newspaper or free lance for magazines on topics that i care about those being: entertainment, sports, fitness, travel,etc)
but while i can see myself doing these things, and know i could do them, they don't seem to be in much demand and the competition is tough for these jobs in the first place. also, unlike so an accountant you have to go and live where these jobs are....
i want to move back to california, preferably orange county or north san diego county, and a radio/writing career there seems i don't know...? i mean what if there are no jobs there, then what?
also, anywhere in california is soooo expensive i don't even know if i could afford it working a radio job, writing and perhaps very part time like 10 hours a week some personal training? so unlike like i said if your an accountant those jobs are available everywhere! could not imagine though being an office worker, cubicle, wearing a suit everyday kind of guy, how horrible is that!
totally not my personality! i like my personal freedom and individuality too much to have a normal 9 to 5 job!
so for those of you who have read all of my venting and frustration so far (seriously thanks!) where do i go and what is your advice?
should i give up my dreams and go back to school even if only for 2 years and get some masters degree in a field that there is a demand for and that you make money in? finance, business admininistration, medical. (although i don't really care for any of this?) or ....
should i go for it and have faith in myself and screw my chronical age since i feel and look and act a decade younger and go after what i think i want to do and can do meaning the radio personality gigs, writing and some part time personal training and hope i can make a decent not struggling living in california?
thanks for your time and your serious advice! take care!

The last 25% of the movie made it worth it IMO. I still think the first one was better and gayer. Definitely good as far as sequels go. Especially ones that come out over 30 years later.
-
I watched it. it was good until they went to far. maverick should have died during the target mission and saving the gooses kids life. would have been good karma
but nooooo
the kid and he team up in a original plane f-14 and save the world together
g ay as all fuck
cruise couldnt contain his ego
who would have thought
and they killed iceman but not maverick,
fuck that
fucking scientology

part of me is thinking, it's too late for me to have a real successful high paying career because 1) i would have to go to school for something medical or finance like and i really don't care to do anything in those fields and 2) at my age i can't go back to school for 4 to 6 years and 3) i'm getting to that age that people wont' hire me because of my age although that's discrimination it's also reality they want to hire some young 20something guy
ive lately been thinking about what i'm good at and that's writing and talking and since i have a communications degree people tell me i should look into radio like i would be a great radio d.j. or radio talk show host, since i have the voice and personality for it, and since i like to write i could also at the same time perhaps write a column, or do a movie review column for a newspaper or free lance for magazines on topics that i care about those being: entertainment, sports, fitness, travel,etc)
but while i can see myself doing these things, and know i could do them, they don't seem to be in much demand and the competition is tough for these jobs in the first place. also, unlike so an accountant you have to go and live where these jobs are....
i want to move back to california, preferably orange county or north san diego county, and a radio/writing career there seems i don't know...? i mean what if there are no jobs there, then what?
also, anywhere in california is soooo expensive i don't even know if i could afford it working a radio job, writing and perhaps very part time like 10 hours a week some personal training? so unlike like i said if your an accountant those jobs are available everywhere! could not imagine though being an office worker, cubicle, wearing a suit everyday kind of guy, how horrible is that!
totally not my personality! i like my personal freedom and individuality too much to have a normal 9 to 5 job!
so for those of you who have read all of my venting and frustration so far (seriously thanks!) where do i go and what is your advice?
should i give up my dreams and go back to school even if only for 2 years and get some masters degree in a field that there is a demand for and that you make money in? finance, business admininistration, medical. (although i don't really care for any of this?) or ....
should i go for it and have faith in myself and screw my chronical age since i feel and look and act a decade younger and go after what i think i want to do and can do meaning the radio personality gigs, writing and some part time personal training and hope i can make a decent not struggling living in california?
thanks for your time and your serious advice! take care!
i dont know what this worrysome diatribe is but i dont care
you must not be attractive or have a personality or charm
these things you dont get from your schools
these things put together can get you any life you want.
obviously school didnt teach you to be "smart"
and yes at your age if your asking yourself these questions yes, its too late
its over dude
you are neither smart or educated.
you must have a stunted cerebral cortex, its only way possible to answer why you have led this life
your a pleaser
no spine
no convictions
i retired at 43
but i have what you dont
emotional intelligence
good looks
pack it in
do your poor brother and his family break and leave
get a job that lets you pay your day to day bills. go find a woman or man in your case , stop being closeted and just find a person and marry so you can have have a double
income
its what most people do, i feel bad for them, but hey we all make our own choices
you waited to long
ask yourself this question mr educated
if you wonder why you live with your younger brother and have failed out loud here and in your life
do you not realize any employer or coworker wont notice this emotional trait about you and you get zero respect and continue your path of failure?
you have only yourself to blame
"could not imagine though being an office worker, cubicle, wearing a suit everyday kind of guy, how horrible is that!"
this quote of your answeres everything about why you are failing
you are not a everyday consistant type of guy
suit wearing or not
you cant or wont put in the work to suceed
your living with your brother, but work part time?
how lazy is that?
get a job in sales
theres no cieling to the amount you can make.
but, we know you are to lazy to get up everyday, and bust your ass

is it too late for me or what?! seriously!
It's never too late, it's too late when you're dead.

I thought it was a good movie. 99% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. They clearly tried to make a mass appeal movie without stepping on toes or pushing woke stuff. Several parts you'll be on the edge of your seat. Go see it, you won't regret it. Also Jennifer Connelly.

OP should worry about himself.
hi! okay, so i'm going thru mid life crisis. soon i will be 45 later this summer and i still don't have what i consider a real career making real good money!
is it too late for me or what?! seriously!
background: i fucked around for alot of years, dropping out of school before going back 13 years later to get a b.a. in communications graduating in 2001! thinking i wanted to be in the film industry as an executive for a studio or production company. was in l.a. for a few years doing the peon jobs as production assistants and office assistants working my ass off 12 hour days dealing with 99 percent assholes and doing things that if i was 18 i would do but once you get to be a grown man ( i swear at my late 30's i must have been the oldest p.a./office asst. ever!) you cannot do! (i.e. picking up dog poop! getting yelled at for copying a script and page 62 is sticking out one millimeter!, etcetera, etcetera!)
left california in late 2003 so sickened and disgusted by that industry i didn't want anything to do with tv,film,radio or anything media related. so i guess my degree in communications was a waste people tell me?
so, back in 2005/2006 thought i should try to get a job in a "real" profession/career that there is a demand for, so i thought physical therapist like perhaps working for a sports team someday. then i found out that you have to go to school for like 6 years and get a doctorate degree to be a physical therapist! at my age 6 years is like 12! also the fact that i have a bachelor's degree already meant that i would have to get school loans and no grants! so were talking 20,000 a year or so for 6 years! no way! i already owe 30,000.00 from my previous school loans! i would be paying of school loans when i'm supposed to be saving up money to retire on! literally!
so then i thought "hmm, maybe i'll just be a physical therapy assistant as my full time job since the training is only 2 years and i wouldn't owe anywhere near the amount of school loans if i became a full fledge therapist and that perhaps for a couple of hours in the evening i could be a personal trainer at my gym and in the long run, working as a physical therapy asst and personal trainer i would make as much money as a therapist in the long run....
so, i started going to school to be a physical therapy assistant, however i soon realized a few things 1) it was harder than i thought it was going to be 2) all my instructors told me that for the first few years at least i would end up working at a nursing home or something like that before i ever got to work (if ever) a sports team and 3) i realized that physical therapy assistants don't make that much money perhaps somewhere in the vicinity of 13.00 to 18.00 bucks an hour! even if you do it for 20,30 years! that sucks! so i dropped out!....
now, i'm working only part time as a manager at a recreational center in the midwest hating it, the pay sucks and there is no chance for me to move up and i hate everyone i work with! and since it's only part time i'm actually living with my brother which while i love him, it sucks that i'm a grown man and living this way. meanwhile, he's 5 years younger than me, has a wife and 2 small kids and a nice house and he went to one, that is 1 semester of junior college and dropped out but years ago, he had a friend who had a friend who got him this job making surgical tools and so he wears a lab coat and has a desk and a microscope and now makes 60,000.00 a year doing that? and i'm the smart and educated one?! go figure!

The positive thing is you have nothing to lose. Just find an easy job to pay your bills and kick back.

SICKENING and unbelievable that so so many in the public still STILL support this man whose the public face of a evil abusive cult AND a dead beat father!...
Do so many not have a ounce of integrity, decency, character, honor or empathy as long as little ole them are entertained by a movie star and for 2 hours?.... What if cruise was the public face of the KKK? would that matter to any of them either?..
who in their right mind supports a man who thinks any and all who are not in his cult are "degraded beings" and "silly wogs" 2 terms that are on the level of the "N" word!... LITERALLY insulting them, laughing at them and wants to take their/our money?
Sure, many are still ignorant on what cruise is involved in (which is in itself surprising by now in 2022!) but even when you try to inform them, they don't care, they don't want to know!
HOW DID PEOPLE get so apathetic and self absorbed and celebrity worshipping pathologically so??...
Hey Tom, do you remember when you said you knew someone who died of Covid, and root said your "niece's boyfriend's grandfather who was 65 died"?
I laughed my ass off!
OOH, I'M GETTING SO SCARED, TOM! YOU KNOW OF ONE OLD FUCK WHO DIED!! I'M SO SCARED!!
-
my niece's boyfriend's grandfather got covid and passed
With all due respect, are you a complete moron?
So you know ONE OLD FUCK who died of Covid, and that's proof that it's some lethal plague to you? ::)
A classic Getbigger used Van Bilderass going comatose from Covid as the same proof - Van's result was expected, based on how he responded from Swine Flu.
Say whatever you want about me, I didn't fall for the plandemic joke for ONE SECOND.
And you're trying to extend your infinite wisdom in telling us what movies we should watch? Dude - you bought into the plandemic! Your credibility is done.

King Shizzo: Had totally forgot that I posted that long posted so long ago. Didn't know post are forever.
Anyway, have spent the past few years being the caregiver for my father (passed away 4 years ago), my parent's dog (had to put down 7 months ago) and now for my 85 year old mother. This is what i've been doing for a "career"...With no help from my many siblings I might add.
It is what it is.
