Paramount Pictures has been where Counch Jumpin' Cruise and company have housed their crap movies for a while now, and word is, everyone's favorite Scientologist got his psycho ass fired. They basically said they felt his behavior was affecting the success of his films, as evidenced by how shitty MI:3 did in comparison to the second one.
As much as we like him personally, we thought it was wrong to renew his deal," Redstone was quoted as saying in the Wall Street Journal report e-mailed to reporters. "His recent conduct has not been acceptable to Paramount."
And of course, Tom's spokesbitches made up some crap and released it in a statement:
"Whatever remarks Mr. Redstone would make about Tom Cruise personally or as an actor have no bearing on what this business issue is. I don't understand why this would be turned into a personal attack. Because that's what it is. That's letting one of your greatest assets walk out the door. It looks like bad business to me. There must be another agenda that the studio has in mind to take one of their greatest assets and malign him this way. We in fact made a decision not to continue our relationship with Paramount Pictures," Paula claims that they decided to produce independently and they quit and weren't fired. "For some reason, Paramount has chosen to negotiate in the press. It's not really the most businesslike approach. We've had virtually no dealings with Mr. Redstone."
Basically they're saying "They can't fire him, he's Tom effing Cruise!" and Paramount is all "Well, uh, yeah we kinda did." So Tom says "FINE!" and stomps his foot and turns to leave, only to smash his crazy face into a wall. Don't worry folks, Katie-Kate and the baked potato baby, Suri, rush to his side.
In other news, I still can't stand Tom Cruise so this story pretty much made my week.
