That's news to me.
The only thing that freaks me about Scientology is that you never find out what it actually *is*, despite all the media fuss. All I know is all these celebrities are into it & it's played up like it's a Mammon-worshipping cult of baby geese sacrificers, but knowing how the popular imagination tends to pervert the reality of non-mainstream practices I'd bet it's probably much tamer. Something along the lines of meditating on silken pillows while Yanni plays sitar on the stereo and a personal guru hypnotically murmuring "you can succeed" repeatedly in your ear.
I don't know about "Battleship: Earth", it looks like another alien invasion flick. It's been done. But I might see it just for the fun of a good Travolta hamfest.
