It's interesting to see which random celebs and semi-celebs have tweeted about watching Going Clear on HBO. Kristen Bell, Mario Lopez, Rosie Perez, Haley Joel Osment, TV's Frank. I also saw a screenshot of a tweet from Carl Reiner, but it doesn't seem to be on his Twitter account now.

I just watched "Going Clear" on HBO, wow, that really makes you think. Read the book. All of the stories that they cover in the documentary? They get into even further--plus more. It takes a while to get going, but then you just can't stop reading it. I actually feel a little sorry for Tommy Davis, having finished the book. It seems he's tried to "blow" Scientology a couple of times, only to be pulled/brought back in. I suspect that if he were ever to successfully leave the church, he'd have some stories to tell.

If anyone could have destroyed that place from within, it's Courtney!

Miscavige even had his dad followed by PIs after he left the churchYeah, totally normal, innocent behavior to have your father trailed by PIs because you're afraid he's going to leak secrets. Not evil at all. This dude would be a cartoon villain if he weren't actually hurting people. And something else comes to mind here - it seems all of Miscavige's family members leave the church. Don't Scientologists think that's weird? That not even the COB can keep his family in line?

He didn't just have his father followed he was willing to let him die! What a cold, calculating asshole. No wonder he had no issue abusing Sci members when he can treat his own father so callously.

I know this is wishful thinking, but I would like to see Tom Cruise prosecuted at some point. I don't think it's enough for him to just become a laughing stock or has-been. Criminal shit is going down because of him and I think he should have to answer for his part in it.
Are his movies still so profitable that he's sought after as a leading man? I know he's had a string of flops, but I haven't kept up with how they do internationally. I won't see anything with Tom Cruise in it anymore on principal.
