Tom Cruise not only thinks he trains harder than Olympic athletes, he believes his job as a professional actor is as grueling as fighting the war in Afghanistan -- this according to legal docs obtained by TMZ.
As we reported, Cruise recently sat for a deposition in his $50 million libel suit against a magazine publisher that claimed he abandoned daughter Suri -- and his quotes are GOLD.
First, the Middle East -- Tom says his location shoots are just like serving a tour in Afghanistan, "That's what it feels like. And certainly on this last movie, it was brutal. It was brutal."

I too know someone who was there for Tom’s ONLY flight he took during the filming of Top Gun. He went up ONCE. He shit his pants...LITERALLY. Yes he vomited a few times as well.
I met Tom a few times as a kid. He grew up in Glenn Ridge, NJ where I have 5 cousins an Aunt and Uncle who live there and he was best friends with them growing up and was always in and out of the house. I also went to Valley Forge Military Academy and had great stories with him about it in one convo and oddly enough his character along with Timmothy Hutton was shot and killed in my actual room off the main area in Wheeler Hall. I was in Gulf company and E Battery was on the bottom of the barracks. That main area is real but that front gate doesn’t exist...it was only put there for the movie and the actual speaking parts took place over by the mess hall with Col. Kirby across from the infirmary.
I still think Cruise is a great actor. Magnolia is his best performance ever. Vanilla Sky was great and so was Far and Away. Taps will always be a gem to me “beautiful man! beautiful!”
I can honestly say that I never liked the guy and I think Top Gun was the last movie I ever saw him in, unless you count his cameo in Austin Powers Goldmember.
the things ya see when ya aint got a toe tag
“This dude is as crazy as the parent who gave this kid a Hitler doll.”
What’s even crazier is that someone actually *makes* a Hitler doll.
Too bad the men in Afghanistan do not make the money this a-wipe makes.
He is almost a narcissistic as Obama.
definitely a nut case.
lol! For some reason I got this image in my head that has me laughing my butt off - kids waiting on line to see Santa and the girl sits on Santas lap: “And what do you want for Christmas little girl?” “I want a Hitler doll!” then you look at that photo: HER DREAM CAME TRUE! lol lol
can’t he just get sucked into Scientology-land?
Give the guy a break walking around in the sand in elevator shoes with lifts has got to shred his thighs.
Dodging those blank loads fired and CGI explosions at you really stresses you out doesn’t it.
And then he went to his trailer.

Napolian Complex. How smart do you have to be to swallow Scientology and L Ron Hubbard.
Sheesh!
What a jerk!
Little pu$$y boy.
My daughter sent me this tonight. She has deployed three times to Afghanistan and was totally outraged by this poseur.
Huh? After Top Gun, he got his pilot’s license and bought a P51.
I rekon it is pretty hard to manitain a grip on human reality, what with all the mushroom food his “religion” feeds him!
What do you expect from someone who thinks he’s got the Soul of a Space Alien?
Sure Tommy, you’ve got it hard, try digging fox holes, or carrying a wounded buddy WHILE the enemy is shootin’ the sh*t out of ya.
THEN and ONLY then can you open your short, whiny, candy a$$, mouth...ya freak.
People (and in his case I use the word with a chuckle) who have never been under fire make my a$$ hurt when they sat “I understand” or “my work is just as hard”...
Sorry for the short rant, but this just makes me so mad I’m seeing red.
If I ever see him walking around outside the Scientology Mothership over in Clearwater, I’ll probably punch him in the forehead... if I can reach down that far.
He’s the reason I still haven’t seen Mission Impossible 2 or 3.
