TOM CRUISE reckons he has lived before and was even more talented and successful in his previous lives.
The eccentric War Of The Worlds star told a press conference that he is "old beyond reckoning".
And despite all his wealth and fame, he believes his current life is "probably one of the least satisfying" he has led.

The Many Incarnations of George S. Patton
Captain George s. Patton had never before visited Langres, a small town in northeastern France. But in December 1917, having just arrived to operate a tank school, the american newcomer declined the offer of a local liaison officer to show him around the town, once the site of a Roman military camp. "You don't have to," Patton told the surprised young man, "I know it well."
A staunch believer in reincarnation, Patton felt sure that he had been to France before-- as a Roman legionnaire. As he led the way trhough the area, he pointed out the sites of the ancient Roman temples and amphitheater, the drill ground, and the forum, even showeing a spot where Julius Caesar had made his camp. It was, Patton later told his nephew, :As if someone were at my ear whispering the directions,:
Patton may have credited his continuing military success, in part, to having been a soldier in other battles, in past lives. Once, in North Africa during World war ll, a British general complimented Patton: "You would have made a great marshal for Napoleon if you'd lived in the eighteenth century." Patton merely grinned, " But I did," he replied.
LOL. I notice he didn't include that. Maybe it's his current life and that's why he's dissatisfied?
LOL, they do believe in mega vitamins, maybe his have a little something extra?
I love this!
Yep, and the worse he makes the cult sound and seem. He needs help.
I guees all that remains is the over / under on when Katie Holmes bolts the scene.

BINGO !!!
LOL! Great image of Bingodulla. It's hard to believe he believes that. He's like our savior or something? Well, hallelujah, we're saved.
EXACTLY!! He's not acting, he's paid to be himself, no wonder he's disillusioned, he knows he's not a 'great actor', but a sort of fake.
LOL! And didn't attack TV show hosts!
I'm sure I'm gonna smack myself in the head when I hear the answer but what's the clam reference? I'm missing it.
I had a dream that in the next life I lived on the island where they shoot the Sports Illustrated Swim Suit Issue.
I was a Gekko, and Kathy Ireland kept chasing me with a broom yelling "kill it". I guess only the Beautiful people get to be Nefertiti.
Me, either. I can't decide if she'll let it ride, point out his delusions, or play along. And what if she plays along and disagrees with him? "No, Tom, did you forget, dear? You were Freud's mister!"
Makes ya wonder if she's just riding the gravy train or she's as dim as he is.
No, really.
If you spent most of your previous life lookin' at the north end of a south-bound mule, maybe there wouldn't be any point in rememberin'?
If I may, I will add to your exclamation -
TOM! YOU'RE NUCKING FUTS!
Thank you very much.
Well, I believe you! Billthedrill = Vlad the impaler, there is a consistency there! I was Anastasia, daughter of Tsar Nicholas. And Queen of Sheba.
