Tom Cruise is a Nazi
HEIL CRUISE!!!
Here is a side-by-side comparison of Tom Cruise dressed in his role as a Nazi German, the real Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, whom he plays in his latest historical thriller Valkyrie.
Cruise has been filming in Berlin with director Bryan Singer (X-Men 2, Superman Returns). Valkyrie, which based on the true story of the German officers’ plot to assassinate Hitler in 1944, is set for a Aug. 8, 2008 release.

Wow there are some similaries. I will be watching this movie for sure. Love Tom Cruise.
This should be a great movie. Tom looks good in this picture. This was a true story. Too bad the guy did not succeed.
don’t embarrass yourself jared. the shout-out is pathetic and very unnecessary.not to mention insensitive to everyone who had to suffer through the holocaust.
cruise looks like stauffenberg so much though and with bryan singer directing and tom wilkinson in it, it’s bound to be good (i hope).
I smell Oscar Buzz.
^the ’shout out’ doesn’t only refer to ‘Heil Hitler’ through the years it has been used for a lot of other occasions such as ‘Heil Ceasar’ (the nazis actually ‘based’ it on the Romans)
but yeah, can’t wait for the movie … Carice van Houten is awesome :)
Cruise is a very good actor, and he puts everything into his performances. Regardless of what people think about his ego, his acting abilities should not be disregarded. This will probably be a compelling film.
^the ’shout out’ doesn’t only refer to ‘Heil Hitler’
—————————————————-
It does when referring to a Nazi German. (Tom’s character)
Personally, this little midget will never get one more $ of my money………….won’t even watch his crap on TV. People like him do not deserve the adoration of anybody.
I’m not a Tom lover but I’m anxious to see this movie, I think he’s capable of doing justice to this subject and hopefully keep the story of the Holocaust alive. It’s beginning to seem like ancient history yet it happened just a few years before I was born. Sorry it will be a year before I can see it.
I think he will do a good job with this film. It will be easy for him to play someone indoctrinated. Someone who believes his way is the only way and anyone disagreeing with him is just being glib and uneducated. Probably even “SUBHUMAN”.
TOM CRUISE IS A NAZI! LOL I’ve been saying this for years!
HE MIGHT BE A DOUCHE BUT THIS GUY IS A BRILLIANT ACTOR WETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
TOM CRUISE IS AN ACTING GENIUS.
HAVE YOU NOT SEEN HIM IN INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE?

Tom was good in interview with the vampire…but Pitt was it! He was hot hot hot!!
Wonder if Claus believed in some hack sci-fi writer created religion too?
Wonder if he will massacre the German accent? Remember Far and Away… Irish accent? Loser!
I think it’s good that there will be one more movie about nazism and its consequences, there are people out there that are already trying to deny that olocaust ever existed, it’s a shame. In some country denying that it ever happened it’s illegal.
As for this movie, I’ve never heard of Claus von Stauffenberg, it should be interesting to see his story. Say what you want about tom cruise, he’s still a great actor, I think this will be a good movie.
scary…
Tom was good in interview with the vampire…but Pitt was it! He was hot hot hot!!
nope sorry i desagree brad wasn’t bad but Tom played a blinder , he was absolutely brilliant playing this vicious demented vamp, he played the character exactly how Ann Rice wrote it.
that movie is one of my favourite ever movies i have seen it like 100 times.
No you are close but wrong ..he is a wack alien ‘Scientologist’.
Who believes aliens are our creator Gawd..Hail to the alien Tom..
BEAM me up Scottie…
What a wack Ron Hubbard was a crook..and a wack..go figure..
I’m not a big Tom fan, but I think that he is a wonderful actor; and his movies usually does well. It’s good to see that he’s doing a different movie other than the sci-fi, alien, confusing movies e.g. vanilla skys, minority report, war of the world. And I love Interview with a vampire also, that’s on my list of favorite movies. Whether people like him or not, he always delivers.
I can’t remember watching a movie where cruise does not do a character justice. He is one of those actors who give their whole and that is why to me his movies are a must watch. I can’t wait for lions for lambs in November. Better prepare my butt.
Tom cruise will always be Tom Cruise. Even if he jumped on a hundred couches, he will forever be a superb actor and a beautiful person in and out. He is also an excellent father and a perfect gentleman. I am sure he will do this character justice. The resemblance to singer is uncanny. Perfect casting.
what a dork
Everyone will watch this movie, Tom doesn’t make box office flops. Oscar nomination for sure.
Someone mentioned Tom and Brad - I don’t think those two are on the same level. Tom’s by far a better actor and his films gross more money.
HEIL CRUISE!!!
I smell a big floooooooop…….or is it Tom´s breath?
Well, I´ve certainly had enough Nazi-movies to last me for a lifetime.
We already had to watch them all the time at school.
Tom Cruise is an excellent actor whatever we may think about his religious beliefs. I have followed his career since the beginning and never been disappointed with any of his performances, some of which were superb. He looks very like Staffenberg in the photos and I only hope that the film will do justice to the memory of that brave man and the tragic events of the second World War.
That guy looked more like Ralph Fiennes.
Tom’s huge snozz makes the dead guy look better. I don’t mind Tom as a actor, but what is he trying to imitate Schlinder’s list?
For the poor low self-esteemed #3 whats with the name?.. you should have dub yourself ‘Female First’ immature tween loonie, so childish try a new name..that one is played out.
Wheres your unemployed idol at? Plastic surgeons office?BTW I will watch the movie..dvd..rental.
The Tom Cruise Internet hate train is still going strong. No matter what they will hate on Tom, especially when there’s a certain celebrity family out there paying people on the net to hate on all other celebrity families.
TICKS!
29 [~Famous~] :
What an idiot.
Actually Cruise has had box office flops… two of them, for sure. Legend and Far and Away. So saying that he “doesn’t make box office flops”, isn’t quite correct. The fanatics will watch this movie and the Sea Org members will be made to watch it…. but not EVERYONE will waste their money on it.
Tom’s haircut for his acting role looks great on him–a big improvement over the mop top style he’s been wearing lately. He also looks like he’s lost some weight.
Love you Tom…
To hell with the haters….
Love you Tom…
To hell with the haters….
That’s where Tom will be “he11′, 4 believing we are created by aliens. He ia a atheist. His movies are not all enjoyable like most stars there are boring ones,,get real.
And ‘Famous you must be the highest paid you insult every celeb except, Tom/Rihana/Katie/Suri,Beckums/JAY Z/BEY/..the rest you hate on all the time.,,just the other day you wished
‘Britney would kill herself while you watch’,,so maybe ‘YOU ‘are paid to hate all celebs except the ones ‘YOU ‘like..
you are a sad little minded person.
christians are deluded psychos, if you believe that god exists then you must clinicly insane and certifiable.
The Nazi’s hotter!
If Cruise’s character wanted to assassinate Hitler, how in the hell is he a Nazi German? That doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.
35, Thank you. I needed that laugh. I see you watch me to much, don’t watch me, watch TV.
pr person, Legend (85) - are you serious? really reaching on that one huh. If you’re going to go that far back might as well bring up Taps.
Far and Away, didn’t do good, but hell I like that movie and I’ve seen it over 30 times. And I’m pretty sure a lot of other people like that movie as well, including you.
von Stauffenberg was a National Socialist. He was a Nazi but in the end he began to see that Hitler was a crazy man who would lead Germany into doom.
He was a soldier first and impressed by the Wehrmacht’s first fast successes.
Famous…. You are the one that stated that “Tom doesn’t make BOX OFFICE flops”. Which he obviously has. And so what if it was in ‘85, didn’t realize that there was a specific time line on your comment. Moron.
I forgot you have to be real specific for some of these ’stans’.
No you don’t have to be “real specific”, you just shouldn’t talk out of your ass.
TICKS!
Too many fellow cult members of Cruise are posting positive comments here trying to help his image. If he could undo the past two years, he probably would….but he can’t.
His image wouldn’t be so f–ked up if he had stayed married to Mrs. Cruise #1 or Mrs. Cruise #2.
With Singer and Cruise, this thing can’t miss.
Love Tom Cruise…can’t wait for this movie. It’s been too long since TC on the big screen.
The person who wrote they are not a Tom Cruise lover is a big fat liar. I’m sure you absolutely hate Top Gun, Minority Report, Risky Business, Mission: Impossible, Born on the Forth, The Firm and Jerry Maguire. Why don’t you intollerant bigots who can’t accept freedom of religion all go F_uck yourself.
The crime here is that Cruise (a no-talent hack) STOLE the role from a genuine actor with talent, a German gentleman by the name of Thomas Kretschmann.
Lmfao @ Thomas Kretschmann.
I love it….TICKS, how perfect, blood suckers
freedom of religion is fine, $cientology just doesn’t happen to be a religion, hubbard got religious status because he was having financial trouble. you all do know why he started it right? here’s his quote “I’d like to start a religion. That’s where the money is!”
Cruise is in no way a great actor, he only appears to run a lot in movies. We’ll see with these upcoming movies
Look at those great numbers -

OK let’s play ‘Spot the Scientologists’ in the comments section.
Cunning disguise though - first say something about maybe the guy’s a douche (to throw us off the scent) but then to say, what a talented actor - sorry, you gave yourselves away.
Barf.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
***** yeah! Tom is the man!
How tall was Claus? If he was around 4′1″, then Tom is your guy!
Are they going to fix his nose to make it look more like Shauffenberg’s? If so, he will definately get his long awaited Oscar as it seems that anyone who wears prosthetic pieces in movies these days is a guaranteed winner.
ATHIENST TOM WHO FOLLOWS A KNOWN HUSTLER AND CRIMINAL!!HUBBARD WAS CLOSELY WATCHED BY THE FBI. TOM IS A LOOSER WHO TOLD WOMEN NOT TO TAKE POST PARTUM MEDS. KATIE HAD HER BABY IN COMPLETE SILENCE! HE HAS THE SHORT MAN SYNDROME! HE WILL ONLY MARRY CATHOLIC YOUNG WOMEN,TO DEVOID THEM OF THEIR TEACHINGS. OPRAH BUSTED HIM, AND NOW WE ALL KNOW .WE ALWAYS KNEW HE WAS A NUT. HE BELIEVES IN ALIENS.THEY ARE OUR MOMS AND DADS. TOM IS COPYING SCHLINDERS LIST.AND ON AN ON
I love how all the dumb **** scientologist ***** appear out of the woodwork to post glowing things about Cruise and what a wonderful father and human being he is!
He’s a dumb ******* **** but I am even more angry at Bryan Singer. An openly gay man working with this nutjob closet homo case Cruise is just sickening. People like Cruise should not be supported. His views and those of his evil CULT are like a cancer and are no better than Nazism. In fact they are worse because they prey on people’s insecurities with their dangerous “tech” and ruin lives.
This fake religion which is a brainwashing cult needs to be eliminated from our culture. Scientologists are the 21st century Nazis and they won’t stop unless they are stopped.
**** you Tom Cruise and **** you scientology.
Tom deserves the Oscar!!!!
A MUST SEE FOR ME.
TC is an incredible actor and never disappoints.
Best director like Singer,brilliant writers and cast and most of all riveting actor like Tom Cruise I cannot miss this film.
What’s wrong with this obsession for remakes?????
They already did it! It’s a German production called “Stauffenberg” and I bet it’s going to be better than this one. Remakes are never as good as the original. It tells the story just right and Von Stauffenberg is played by a guy way better and who sure sure is a lot more German than Tom. It’s like this Asian invasion, people don’t even know that but what they are watching was originally a great asian movie that just became a good american one. It’s not like there aren’t any good stories anymore. There are several passages on WWII worth shooting, or books, plays.
STOP REMAKES! And please, not even Von Stauffenberg’s family wanted Tom to play him.
It shows how stupid TC is - the movie about Stauffenberg will be released on August 8, 2008. When he had ANY understanding about history the movie would be released on July 20, the day of the failed assassination and his death (btw, exactly 63 years ago today)
My hope: this will be a boxoffice bomb.
Hello,
i’m from Holland, the neighbourcountry of Germany and
I often take a look at jared’s webpage, it like his page, but I think u can absolutely not say, HEIL or say like Cruise is a nazi, the pain, caused by the second world war is still clear over here by the gramma’s, grempa’s and many more people. The second world war was a big lesson for the whole world, and now i presume that everybody knows that he way of thinking from the nazi’s is absolutely wrong, so stop continuing it.
Tom is a good actor - like it or not. He was married to the wonderful Nicole Kidman and is now married to Katie Holmes who is just as gorgeous or even more. Amazing! If not him who should play that role. If Tom had been Staufenberg they would have killed Hitler for sure.
No, if Tom had been Staufenberg he would have sucked Hitler’s **** for sure. The whole world knows Tom Cruise is gay. The gayest gay that ever gayed.
@ Dieter
No, TV isn’t a good actor - he always plays like his has ADS, hyperactive.
Tom isn´t gay: he has wonderful kids and is a good father. Maybe Katie sticks her finger in his pooper once in a while, but leave it to their bedroom. His acting skills and skills as a good husband are well renowned.
The movie title is strange .. Is he gonna show us more of his feminine side? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleptomania
He’s a good actor. I hope the script is good.
I wanna see his ass in these army pants.
It’s interesting that every one of those movies on the list that made any money were Paramount movies. Too bad for Cruise, no more Paramount. I read somewhere that this douche can’t do an accent so there won’t be accents. what a joke. He’ll ruin this story, and I wouldn’t be suprised if there’s a boycott of it considering Germanys despise for $cientology, and tc’s VERY active role for years in bullying the Germans to give it religious status
Perfect role for TC - he won’t have to act.
Fact Check: Stauffenberg was NOT a Nazi, in fact he came from one of the oldest aristocratic Roman Catholic families in Germany. He opposed Hitler and Nazi policies, and was involved in the German military’s resistance against Hitler. He was executed after the failed plot of 20 July 1944 to kill Hitler, which is what this movie is based on.
Generally speaking, a high percentage of the soldiers and officers in the German Army (Wehrmacht) during the war were not, in fact, members of the Nazi party. Those who belonged to the SS, Waffen SS, and Gestapo units generally were members of the party.
Stauffenberg is considered a patriot and a hero in Germany today.

______________________________________________________________________
Nicole Kidman is classy and gorgeous. Katie Holmes is a snaggled tooth bimbo who couldn’t make it on her own in Hollywood!! Maybe Tom and Nicole will get back together once they both wise up!
#77. Exactly, which makes it even more of a travesty that this
d o u c h e is portraying him.
I can’t wait to see it! I like Tom’s movies. I loved what Bryan did with Superman. This will be a hit too, no doubt about it.
I´m really glad that Tom plays Col. Claus Stauffenberg.
Now he can tell worldwide the story about a Man and Soldier, who died for his conviction to kill the Evil Hitler.
Can’t wait to see the movie.
Can’t wait to see they Murder history once again… I bet it will hurt a lot!
He is a scientologist, he jumps on sofas to say his love for Katie Holmes and other crazy stuff… What matters to me is Tom Cruise has always been an excellent actor!!!!
Get your facts right!
von Stauffenberg was no Nazi, he fought against the Nazi regime and paid for it with his life. I am the granddaughter of one of the 20. July 1944 plotters (my grandfather was also executed by the Nazis) and I find your ignorance appalling.
He looks wonderful! A replica of the Nazi he’s playing, how enigmatic. I hope he wins an oscar this year. It’s about time.
You are such idiots justjared.com!Stauffenberg was the opposite of a nazi he was anti!He was against hitler and the nazis and he tried to kill hitler!Is that easy enough to understand????You’re americans **** off!You just talking **** about things you dont know anything about!Better get some information and learn about history right!
Every year on the 21th of July comes in the German TV a filming or documentation about colonel count Claus Stauffenberg. On the 21th of July, 1944 he was executed after the unfortunately unsuccessful attempt on the monster Hitler. In the film it is shown like he became as an officer loyal in the beginning after awful experiences in the front and after heavy injury the opponent hitler. He decided to kill together with assistants Hitler. He wanted to form immediately after the attempt with his assistants and generals a new government and stop immediately all war actions. The film is really very exciting and also affecting. The end is very sad when colonel Stauffenberg and his assistants are executed.
I believe the film becomes in 2008 a success and the Oskar then is handy close for Tom. He is a good actor, he has shown this already in the film Born on the Fourth of July. By the way, what he makes private and acts is not our affair
ohmaigah!!! i cannot believe this. deja vu! anywho other than that epiphany. told you! he’s creepy! thumbs up man!!!
Why is Stauffenberg a NAZI ????
Are all German Nazis in your eyes ???
You Americans are so stupid.
In Germany we don’t say that all of you are ******-Haters, War Lovers and Clones of George Bush.
If America had only a handful of people like Stauffenberg, it would be a much better country.
And I think that someone who is a mad scientoligist shouldn’t play a so heroic man like Stauffenberg.
Tom Cruise is one of the worst actors of the world.
did hitler die? just curious…how old is he? does anyone know where he lives, if he is alive?
Im not sure who’s more insande. TOm? or some of the posters here. You guys are wacked!
So what if he thinks his parents are aliens…and he jumped up and down like a loony….well he IS!
However, Jerry Maguire, Risky Business, Vanilla Sky, Eyes Wide Shut, Born On the Fourth of July….speak for themselves.
Yes I think he is some kind of nut. And i cant stand him in interviews and on tv when he is just being himself. Infact I turn the TV off because he makes an ass of himself.But I CAN stand him in movies. Thats when I watch because he ACTS as SOMEONE ELSE. (very good I may add)
AMAZING. i see the resembling similarities. :D
OK, so I know this is old, but this is just another Hollywood movie that is a distortion of the real facts. If you want to know more about von Stauffenberg, read a book. This movie is just like the history channel, Based upon true events.
