Mel's fall from grace...1, 2, 3 & 4

redaction.

Quite the charming man. Either she seriously hurt him, he’s nucking futs or both…

LMFAO!!

I COULD NOT give less of a shit about what he said. I think he’s probably got a little anger management issue, and definitely some jealousy or something, but who cares. It was a private conversation. I, and most of you (including the hypocrites who won’t admit it), say things in private that they wouldn’t care to see repeated on the front page of the New York Times.

IME, the REAL piece of shit here is the girl who recorded that conversation and leaked it.

ETA: just listened to Part 2. Definitely some anger management issues…LOL. Probably needs a little counseling for that. However, she’s being so calm because she knows she’s recording the conversation. She’s probably a loony bitch when she’s not being recorded.

ETA again: “YOU SHOULD JUST FUCKING SMILE AND FUCKING BLOW ME!! BECAUSE I DESERVE IT!!” I actually spit soup out that time…LOL!!

I dont care.

I still like Mel’s movies. Good actor, and good director

Cuckoo-Cuckoo! Cuckoo-Cuckoo!

He’s always been a nutcase. I still like a lot of his movies though (not the anti-gun Lethal Weapon movie though).

way to completely flush your career down the toilet.

He’s got some anger management issues, but I agree, the Bit$# that recorded and leaked it should be prosecuted and sued.

I like his movies - one of our best actors of recent years. Hope he can gain control of his alcohol problem before he sinks too far down.

whole thing appears setup to me. There’s a huge sound quality difference between both sides of the call. Her side has an excellent mic, which leads me to believe someone is professionally recording it. Voice over IP doesnt even sound as good as her side did. I find this hard to believe this was recorded off an answering machine or whatever. She is surprisingly calm and emotionless even during this intense and offensive argument and is even baiting him a few times during the conversation. Whole argument just doesn’t seem real. I wouldnt be surprised if the convo was editted either. Never mind the fact she leaked a private wiretapped conversation. Wiretapping laws uh oh!

Never mind the fact that her career as a composer sucks, she has no work, shes been married previously to two wealthier older men, like an idiot she signed a “cohabitation agreement” which entitles her to ZERO of Gibson’s money if they split. Gibson’s basically $100s of millionaire if not a billionaire after Passion of the Christ. Motive and opportunity for extortion are there.

Hes filthy rich, US biggest talent agency dropped him , sounds like early retirement to me.

I wouldn’t be so sure.

Mel has basically been independent since The Passion.

He could easily make another biblical epic and rake in another half billion.

He can finance his own stuff. He did that with the Passion of the Christ movie and maybe also Apocalypto?

Mel is a great guy. He needs to lay off the booze. That is what will kill him. And too bad he broke his vows and screwed over his own family.

I read an interview with him in the Delta in flight magazine a while ago, late 90s. After Conspiracy Theory and he was asked about all the conspiracy nutjobs out there. He said something along the lines of, even if you are paranoid, that does not mean they are not out there to get you. Those were not his words. Just kind of the sentiment he gave. Probably not that strong. But it was an interesting interview.

and yet the main stream press wont play the black panther kill the children tape ? but will play this over and over and over and over and over

WHO CARES he is a frigin actor thats it ?
many people get heated and say things !!!

I would say its the male OZY in him that is coming out where men are men and he still has that in him a bit

some of that would sound good in a movie though !!!
like the rose garden thing :slight_smile: could hear a bad guy saying that line !

+100

Brother Mel, as I call him, is one of my favorites. All the way back to the Road Warrior and to the original Mad Max

just saw this after reading the thread and yes, I did laugh:D

Don’t make the mistake of confusing the actor with the part. By both his public and private actions of late, Gibson has revealed himself as an angry and abusive alcoholic, racist, and misogynist.

But what the hell, he makes a good movie, right? And Hitler was apparently a pretty decent painter and liked his dogs. :rolleyes:

What if Hitler had liked cats…would he have brought world peace?

I think she was baiting him too. And if you had spent the money he had to nail her, before and after the divorce, you would have been pissed to.

Who cares about Mel’s behavior? Apparently nobody cared about Rev. Wright’s anti-whitey and anti-American rants, or Bill Ayers bombing of government buildings. I would say that Mel’s private remarks are much less offensive than the actions of Wright or Ayers. And for many of us it is difficult enough to control our own behavior, so we really do not need the additional burden of concerning ourselves with what Mel says.

He was a pretty good painter.

yea, besides all that woman beating and jew hating and racist stuff, he’s great! :rolleyes:

I think you are missing the point. Alcohol is probably the root for all the women and jew hating stuff. I think if he abstained from Alcohol he would probably not have said the things and done the things he did. Just a guess.
