If you’re brainwashed – and you know it.. you’re not brainwashed, just stupid.
This is how I feel every time I get dragged to church for some thing or another.
By whom is John Travolta brainwashed? Or was it a character he played that was brainwashed? I knew Tom Cruise was, but was unaware of John Travolta…
John Travolta is (like Tom Cruise, Lisa Marie Presley and Catherine Bell) a scientologist.
They got Catherine, too? :O Noooooo!!! *sob*
The bastards got Will Smith too. One of my favorites by far…
I thought if there was one actor on earth that could out run the Scientologists it would be Will Smith. This is sad.
It only makes sense that Will Smith is a Scientologist. He was in Independence Day and Men In Black. Aliens are his life.
CATHERINE BELL???? NOOOOOOO….my world has been shattered by aliens and crazy sci-fi writers.
John Travolta is a Scientologist…
They caught another good one. DAMN YOU SCIENTOLOGISTS!
Why do you think he was in Battlefield Earth?
People watched that movie?
It took about ten tries but I managed to piece together the general…uhh…can’t say plot…I don’t think you can call that a plot…
I couldn’t get past a scientifically-literate revoew pf ot. which noted that the aliens had to “terraform” Earth (or build domes or something) to meet the atmospheric requirements of their biology, and they didn’t want to wear spacesuits on their new, conquered home. But when they have humans as slaves – in the alien’s environment – the humans don’t have suits. Someone didn’t stop to think that if the aliens need suits to live in our environment, we need some to live in theirs. Basic logic, and can easily be compared with lifeforms IRL. Think of us and fish.
I can swallow a lot for the sake of entertainment. I can watch far out stuff without ruining it by spending sleepless nights over niggly questions (or, I can at least refrain from boring people with them.) I can even overlook the abuse of the term “light year” in Star Wars (the original). However, I can’t sit through something that starts out just so obviously bad. It’s not on my “to watch” list, and I can’t see it ever being, unless someone convinces me that the laugh factor is actually worth it.
I see what your’e getting at but the bidirectional logic doesn’t always hold true. Something in their atmosphere could be harmless and irrelevant to us but essential for them to live.
L Ron Hubbard was always a mediocre writer to begin with. His career happened in a time when Sci-Fi was just getting started and fans of it would read just about anything that had a space-ship in it. In comparison to Asimov or Heinlein, Hubbard was an amateur.
*Ahem*. If you read the book, it’s actually quite interesting and he does address the issue of different atmostpheres. As far as the movie goes…*makes doggy retching sounds*
with apologies to jim…
in comparison to simak, farmer, herbert, etc., hubbard was an amateur.
in comparison to asimov or heinlein, hubbard was a smear of dog mess on a shoe.
but that’s just my opinion.
the movie. that does not bear talking about. i sat through it once. and never returned the phone calls of that ex-date.
tl;dr plz?
As much as I hate to admit that I read any of Battlefield Earth, I did read at least enough to get to where it said the aliens reacted very poorly to sunlight and radiation, so they had suits and vehicles with leaded glass protecting them.
No idea what the reasoning was in the movie though, I didn’t see it.
Because everyone needs a little Alien inside them !
Once you go alien, you never go… um… balien?
failien.
sorry, I got nothing.
same again?
*watches all the Obama supporters clap their hands*
I MEAN WHUT??
Amen!
*shudder*
only in hollywood can people fall victim to a “religion” created by a sci-fi writer.
it baffles the mind. it truly does.
That’s the sad thing. Scientology isn’t limited to Hollywood types. They also claw into people who cannot afford their high-priced … fantasies … that they sell. However, they do love to hook onto celebs to make Scientology look “normal”, or whatever, hoping that the celeb’s popularity will make them look respectable by association.
And the celebs are too stupid (or too well-treated) to see that they’re simply being used.
And how anyone can actually believe the crap that Scientology is about is beyond me. But then again, I see all religions as far-out and based on someone’s sick fantasy, but Scientology is really blatant about it.
I know! Why don’t they believe in an invisible sky wizard and his long haired hippy son like everyone else? I mean, that’s totally reasonable, right? Right?
And some people believe in the magic puddle of goo.
The diff between the pile of goo and the bearded god is that the pile of goo doesn’t need to be magic to procreate and make more goo, but the bearded god picks it up and says an incantation over it and blows on it and it makes a fully-evolved adult man.
Uh.. yeah.. and if YOU were a God, you could do that too… it’s kinda part of being a God.. you don’t have to follow logic, laws of physics, etc.
ALL HAIL THE MAGIC PUDDLE OF GOO!!!
SKEET?
wait! if i become a scientologist, do i get to wear a totally hot uniform, with like totally hot stripes and a, like, totally hot hat, even though i am, like, a really crappy actor?
cause if so, i am totally there.
beam me up xenu…
I just recently converted to The Church of The Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Finally, the world makes sense!
RAmen!
Yay for the Pastafarians!
ROFL!!! Greatest thread EVER!!
If you’re voting for Obama and you’re an idiot clap your hands…..
That’s redundant…
WIN
That’s funny, nobody clapped!
I guess the Obama voters are smart after all. Peg, your such a racist.
There’s that wonderful race card!
Bahahahahahahhah beautiful. He is so fug, too.
True, Scientology is just too…damn. Comon. I’ve heard better and more believable stories in a bar at 1 in the morning from a dude three sheets or more to the wind. Then again, like the previous postings, most religions are just ridiculous anyways when you break it down. Look at Christianity! It’s simply the belief that a Cosmic Jewish Zombie that was his own father could grant you immortal life if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically submit to him as your master, so he can ride your soul of an evil force that has been present in all humanity because a rib woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magic tree. And that still sounds more believable that Scientology.
I just want to understand why the man dresses like he works for American Airlines. OK, I get it – you fly your own jet. But isn’t the pseudo-military garb just a bit much?
What’s with all the Anti-Obama stuff? Some of you guys are smartly anti-religion? So why are you conservative racists as well? How can anyone even contemplate voting for the same cast of characters that have killed thousands of people, ruined the envirionment and bankrupted the whole world??????
I love how the world blames the US for their own problems…. but sure enough the moment they need some help they come crying back… I really don’t get it. And the environment thing… really??? go pick on China if you want to save the environment, since they are still using coal for electricity; not to mention Japanese whale hunters. Yep… it’s all the US’s fault. :: rolls eyes:: Grow up and learn to take responsibility for your own actions.
Not only that but get a real argument instead of pulling out the race card just because people don’t all like Obama. It’s a democracy. People choose who they like more. Quit shoving your political candidate of choice down people’s throats.
I totally agree, 100%. Just vote and we’ll see what happens. Then the winner (or the loser) can say “I told you so” after their candidate either causes famine and death or saves the world and makes all Americans poop roses.
Right, Iraq bombed itself! They should apologize for making us bomb them!
We’re still using coal for electricity in the US.
I’m Canadian, so ain’t voting for either the black guy or the old guy. If I were American? I’d vote for Nader, just because he doesn’t know the meaning of “give up, already” and deserves at least one sympathy vote.
Cool. I just noticed my icon. My name is Isengrim, but my icon looks more like Reynard. The little bastard snuck in on me again!
Brother Reynard, bring forth the Holy Hand Grenade!
Actually, I’m voting for McCain because I want to keep my job, which largely consists of supporting education for employees whose training expenses are paid for by their companies.
Raising business taxes means fewer corporations are going to be willing to spring for training and reimbursement, means less students at my university, means cutbacks and layoffs.
(Also, training increases productivity which pushes growth. Cutting training = opposite effect.)
Obama economic policy FAIL.
I love that whole attitude of if you don’t vote for Obama, you’re a racist. If you didn’t vote for McCain, you’re an ageist. See how this works? It really get’s no where. Of course some people who voted against him were racist. Well guess what? Some of the people that voted for him did it out of a neccesity to apologize for the past and that attitude is just as racist, it’s just disguised with sweetness and foolishness.
All I can say, Is THANK WHATEVER GODS THERE ARE,
That I live In New Zealand.
The greatest Country in the world!
Everyone has their own opinion. There is no REAL greatest country in the world; such is based off of personal opinion.
I hate the bitches who oppose that.
That can’t be fact by any stretch; such is based off of personal opinion. For example, I think America is a great country in many ways, but others can have other opinions. Seems you fail to understand that.
I mean, New Zealand has quite a lot of downsides, like every other country. Such as their form of government. Come ON, Monarchy is soooo 1500s.
You are aware that a constitutional monarch has no actual powers other than the ability to withhold the “Royal Assent” from a bill? They’re basically a “figurehead of state” and the head of the legislature will be the Prime Minister.
The #1 country in the world is clearly Kazakhstan.
Number one exporter of potassium
all other countries have inferior potassium.
No potassium for you!
