    Mel Gibson? An insane rant? No, couldn’t be. I’m sure it must have not been bigoted in any way.

      Uhhhhh… well this is embarrassing. He didn’t do an ‘‘insane’’ rant. He did a BONKERS rant. Uncle Baby Billy can clear up the difference if you need more info.

      Not defending the guy, but he has not at all been out of work. He just hasn’t been in movie theaters nationwide. He’s been in plenty of stuff recently. John Oliver even mentioned how crazy it’s been that he’s been so busy despite all the racist and antisemitic rants he’s had.

        TBF, Australia has a really big problem with racism. Against immigrants in particular.

        As an American that traveled there 2 years ago on vacation, it was typical for them to ice break with “so how about them immigrants” after they found out we were American (and assumed all Americans are Texans I guess, by the stereotype they were expecting)

          That’s true. We are a racist country on the whole. Like the US, it really shows in the regional areas.

        I don’t care, man, braveheart was fucking dope. plus that’s very reductive, it’s a very personal story as well in many ways. there’s friendship and love and :.|:; and betrayal and revenge. it really hits hard on an emotional level in so many scenes. two or three that made me cry, a number of fuck you moments and a bunch of fuck yeah moments. it has so many perfect setup and payoff arcs that more recent insanely popular media severely lacks, like breaking bad or Harry Potter.

        Gibson is an absolute piece of shit but it’s a shame that he’s actually talented, unlike a crushing majority of these hogs.

          I like that part where the king pushes his sons gay lover out the window.

          Good movie but totally agree, Gibson is so talented he’s succeeded despite his wacko beliefs.

      The funny bit is that everyone already knew he was a far right extremist politically and religiously, it’s just HOW he expresses himself that’s blowing up in his face.

    You mean the same guy who said he hopes his (then) partner gets “raped by a pack of n****rs” isn’t voting for Kamala? I’m shocked I tell you.

    He’s been unhinged for years, we should have cancelled him decades ago and let Mel succumb to his own alcoholism.
