frannyo 2 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 It's almost amusing the amount of spotlight the dude is getting now for his drunken outbursts. And I didn't know he was all these things he is being made out to be. Is he known to be anti-Jew, anti-gay, anti-tons of stuff? I read one report that because of the money he made from, he is pretty much the richest person in Hollywood. Nearly half a billion I think it said. And I didn't know he wasn't Australian. I thought he was. Link to post Share on other sites
smellyfeet 0 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I wonder if I had such incredible amounts of money if I would not just retire and avoid the spotlight and enjoy life. The media seems to be saying this could "break his career", but the most cash he ever made was by paying out himself to make Passion so I can't see it. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 He is australian isnt he? I have never liked him, several of his films feature him kicking the ass of the evil British. Link to post Share on other sites

It's a sad fact, people labelled as Australian, and disliked, aren't actually Australians at all ... we're actually really nice peeps Like those in Niseko (Mr Gibson was born in the US and emigrated to Oz when he was 12.)

big-will 7 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I actually quite enjoyed Braveheart the movie - work of total fiction or not - and some of his other things (first Lethal Weapons) Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Never liked him. He's getting a ton of exposure from all this. Can't be bad for his new movie. Link to post Share on other sites

Davo 1 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Pfft, God botherers. Mel's got it all wrong. The whole lot of them cause wars with their petty factionalism, sectarainism and bigotry. Isn't his apologizing and contriteness so absurdly cringeworthy. Link to post Share on other sites
yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Yes and his apologies keep on coming as well. Do stop it. Link to post Share on other sites
