We're not entirely surprised to see the emergence of parody videos since footage surfaced online of Tom Cruise speaking in Scientological tongues in appreciation of receiving his Certificate of Thetan-Clearing Achievement back in 2004. But how Jerry O'Connell's addition to the burgeoning genre—which he lovingly dedicates to the WGA, a cause close to his heart ever since being relieved of his Carpoolers duties—figures into proven formulas really exceeds our limited Hollywood arithmetic skills. Let's see now: D-list actor married to a 10 openly mocks an A-list pariah running a third-tier studio....carry the 8...Yup! Just as we suspected: O'Connell can kiss any chance of playing Cruise's roommate in Men goodbye.
