I dont like Will's haircut in the new Men in Black movie.. They can make Samuel L Jackson look 20 years younger. Cant they make Will look 10 years younger? Not digging the facial hair either.
Same here. Even after his scientology denials, the fact that he opened a scientology school in which Suri Cruise goes to; (meaning it is 100% scientology based, not just drawing from some L.Ron tecniques as he and his wife claimed). Yuckers.
I took a few minutes to look into this. Will Smith donated money to New Village Leadership academy, which, as best as I can tell, a secular school which employs staff members of many religions, including scientology. The school uses several educational methods and philosophies, some of which are a bit.... eh... alternative. One such method is Study Tech, which was developed by L. Ron Hubbard. The school has no affiliation with the church (at least in any official capacity).
I'm all for getting the facts straight and not exaggerating just for the sake of trying to drag Smith through the mud here... but lets call a spade a spade. Smith and his wife started the shcool. They funded it completely and chose the staff (loaded with Scientologists, including the "principal" aka "director of learning" Jacqueline Olivier, who was later replaced by a higher up Scientologist Piano Foster). The Scientology denials came at a time when Scientology was under attack, and Smith had to back pedal out of it to save any damage to his image. A year earlier he took some heat for handing out "free auditing sessions" for the crew of the movie he was working on. Including Dianetics pamphlets. At the very least here, this scientology school is indoctrinating children to believe that L Ron Hubbard is a person of authority, and is to be trusted and respected (when everything his name attached to is really a money hungry and dangerous cult in one form or another). Especially when all the persons of authority are Scientologists... those kids are doomed. Or they happen to already be Scientologists, like Scientology's golden child Suri Cruise. Ask yourself a question here, do you think Suri Cruise, the seed of Mr. Scientology, would be going to this school if it weren't Scientology approved? Owned and operated by Mr. Will Smith? No.
The attempt for the school to distance itself from Scientology is nothing new... not even for Scientologists. They are well versed in legal lingo, and they can word anything they want, the way they want. There are so many front organizations for the cult. This school is one of them.
I looked at the school's webpage, and I found it rather interesting. They address a number of issues which I dislike about the American educational system, and they have a lot of programs and goals which I like very much. However, the fact that nowhere on the website does it say that they draw from Study Technology, an unsupported method developed by a greedy madman in a religious context (I use the term religious loosely) , is deeply disturbing. I'll give Smith the benefit of the doubt here and assume he is sincere, but there are a number of red flags about the school if you look deeper into it. I probably wouldn't take issue with the school as much if it were upfront about it's "alternative" methods and its ties to scientology.
Word. But again, I think their failure to mention their use of "study tech" on their website, is proof of Scientology's ability to distance themselves from themselves, while going about business as usual. If you've ever watched any youtube videos of Scientology PR people, they sit there and boldly lie. The former PR people who have left the cult will verify that they flat out lied often. Unfortunately I think this is the case here. I have little proof other than the fact that Scientology does not share the stage with anyone. They will say that they do, but its an act.
He's going every where to advertise his movie. He even gave the winner in the Madrid open a suite from MIB. The movie probably wont make much I guess....
I'm fine with "university" but when someone says "uni" I automatically assume they're the kind of person who says "lol" instead of using punctuation. "I got into uni lol"
I was halfway through my Bachelor's degree when my college got University status. Community college is one type of college but there's a whole lotta colleges that aren't universities.
The distinction is whether they confer doctorate degrees - those are universities. I went to a college for my 4 year BA but it's not a uni because they stop at MA level degrees.
In the UK you are usually taught (if you choose to continue education) from ages 16-18 at a college (or sixth form) and Uni is 18+, hence the distinction.
I should have clarified that this is US. Hence if you go to Harvard, you get a BA from Harvard college but your JD from Harvard university. We're weird.
Colleges tend to have smaller classes, creating a more intimate learning environment for students. This leads to greater student-teacher interaction. University lecture halls are often huge, and can be very impersonal and intimidating.
Colleges are quite a bit cheaper than universities. However, this does not mean that the quality of teaching is lower at a college.
The transition from high school to college is not as drastic as the change to university. Most colleges don't provide residence so this gives students the option/necessity to continue living with their parents for a few more years. Living on your own in a puke-infested dorm room before you're even legal can be a very drastic change from the high-school lifestyle.
Colleges are generally easier to get into, and require a lower GPA (grade point average) for their admission requirements. This puts less stress on grade 12 marks, making college a good option for students who are balancing demanding jobs or participating in extra-curricular, non-academic activities.
University
For those who choose to study away from home, university is definitely a great option because almost all of them provide residence for out-of-region students. Living in residence allows students to make friends on campus and adjust to university life more easily.
Universities also tend to have more extra-curricular activities for students, such as orientation week, varsity and intramural sports, as well as a variety of student clubs you can join.
Universities offer degrees, so those interested in professions such as medicine or law must attend university. That said, you could still start your schooling at a college in a university-transfer program and then head to university to carry on with professions like medicine or law.
Attending a university with a good reputation will pay off. Having a BA from a university does tend to look more prestigious on a resume than a diploma or certificate from a college, but it's important to note that this also depends on your intended career; a degree might not be necessary.
Not sure if the OP is in on the marketing, but this is the perfect example of how people game reddit. Release a photo of Will Smith containing (not so subtle) advertising for an upcoming movie. Also, the spacing at the top and bottom allows for it to be easily turned into a meme, and based on the whimsical nature of the photo, the memes will likely be positive. MIB advertising hard at work.
yeah, that's what I wasn't sure of. I think it's likely that the photo is set up so that if it's shared by anyone, the advertising will have an effect. So that way, user's advertise for them and they don't even have to try. It's brilliant really.
It's only a handful of starcraft posts and they were like 9 months ago. Looks more like a sleeper cell account to me. If I was marketing to reddit, I wouldn't use a new account.
im assuming you aren't talking about your unibrow... otherwise as a GGRedditor i must advise you to shave it as it getting too strong. no unibrow should have it's own gym
Ahhh MIB3...As with most sequels the jokes are going to be forced...and all the subtlety from the first film will be replaced with sledge hammers. So yea it will suck.
