Gibson is objectively a hack but he's also a deeply strange freak even by the standards of being Australian Catholic etc and this results in very entertaining movies

My fav weird scene in Passion is when Judas is in the sewers running into his own future ghost who is also a zombie

Mel Gibson is also a profoundly stupid person lol

quote:

In a July 1995 interview with Playboy, Gibson said President Bill Clinton was a "low-level opportunist" and someone was "telling him what to do". He said that the Rhodes Scholarship was established for young men and women who want to strive for a "new world order" and this was a campaign for Marxism.[189]

he thinks the Rhodes scholarship is a tool to train Marxists lmao

If you want the really good insane Mel Gibson anecdotes, you gotta read Heaven and Mel by Joe Eszterhas, his tell-all about the time they tried to make a movie about the Maccabees together

Gibson is one of those Catholics who are so catholic they decided the church isn’t catholic enough so they became a sort of Protestant, but catholicly. It’s one of the funniest religious tendencies out there imo

According to the infancy gospel he absolutely meant to murder those kids. Although there is one time a kid accidently died and people blamed Jesus, so he brought the kid back to life so he could say Jesus didnt do it

Oh poo poo it's the second one I'm thinking of. I thought the story included Jesus being the one to cause him to fall off a roof but must have gotten it confused.

It's still lol when legacy media does reviews of genre stuff being shocked that it has themes and characters and performances, like they've never seen any before in their lives and assume it's all spaceships blowing each other up for no reason

I liked that video game movie with the guy from Winter Soldier but seeing Mel Gibson's glazed and weirdo presence in the movie definitely dampened things. He's not even a good actor! Why put him in there!

I recently finished the 5 book space opera series "Exordium" and that had a couple really good spaceship battles all in the name of stopping a comically evil planet of super torturers from seizing power :hai:

There is a fortnite leaker whose favorite rapper is drake and his 2nd is Kendrick and in-between fortnite leaks all he talks about is how much he loves both of them

Let's just say the last week has had some odd tweets from him.
