Maybe if After Earth was actually a halfway decent movie, major world religions wouldn't be totally appalled to be associated with its subtext.
Scientologists Are Not Happy That Everyone Keeps Saying 'After Earth' Is About Scientology | And I’m being held captive by the Church of Scientology.įor some reason this article that was published on June 13th didn't show up in my search until today: Along the way they collect praise for Smith as they attempt to cajole strangers into signing a billion-year contract with the church. In it, two Sea Org members go to see After Earth. Or as, the New York Times wondered, it could be that the film is a thin allegory for the teachings of Scientology.Īfter the film’s premiere, a parody video operating on that third assumption soon appeared at. It might be the writing (“the script has no nuance, none,” wrote the LA Times”). In space you don’t get that much noise”). It might be for lack of realism (as Buzz Aldrin pointed out, “there was a lot of noise. Night Shyamalan’s new film After Earth-starring Will and Jaden Smith stranded on a post-human Earth- flopped at the box office. There are many possible explanations for why M. We’re left wondering if we totally missed all the signs or he just recently decided to find the nearest swimming pool and go off the deep end.ĭid the Church of Scientology silence this "After Earth" parody? While we always knew that his Scientology membership entitled him to a season pass on the crazy train, we never quite realized just how wacky he was until a few weeks ago. As we’ve seen throughout this entire press tour, Will Smith’s currently working on a new role called behaving like an insane person. Will and Jaden are currently in Thailand promoting their father-son film After Earth. What, why, huh, who, child services?īefore you ruin your day, let me tell you a little bit about this interview. Then please join me as I try to re-enact the plot of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and erase this memory immediately.

AFTER EARTH MOVIE SCIENTOLOGY TV
Was he trying to introduce Scientology to the masses a la Travolta or is this just the case of a whole lot of coincidences? More importantly, has Mr.Will Smith Gets To First Base With Jaden On TV And In Related News, I Need To Go Bleach My Brain
Will it be the same for Will? He refuses to acknowledge he’s Team L. He keeps his movie persona separate from his religious one which is why people still see his movies. Tom, to his credit, talks Scientology but has never been dumb enough to make a movie about it. This could be a Tom Cruise jumping on the couch moment. He hasn’t had many flops and this isn’t just a flop. So here’s the most important question – will this hurt Will Smith’s career.

Did Will Smith just make his Battlefield Earth?Īs you’ll remember, Battlefield Earth was Travolta’s love letter to Scientology. By now you’ve probably heard the movie bombed this weekend with critics universally panning it. No I’m talking about the Will Smith/ After Earth Scientolog controversy. No, I don’t mean he’s taken to enjoying “massage” rendez-vous with men in upscale spas (although Jada Pinkett-Smith’s open marriage comments aren’t helping anything). Will Smith thought he’d go the John Travolta route. Ron Hubbard never does well at the box office.
