The Beaver...welcome back Mel Gibson

[Nick Manning]

Just saw this preview on TV. It's good to see Mel back, he's been gone too long. I wonder if he's playing himself in this film...

Even with all the bullshit, I've remained a big fan.

Movie looks good. Can't be any worse than Edge of Darkness...*knock-knock-knock*

You didn't like the part when Mel forced that guy to drink irradiated milk?

The scene showed promise, OBVIOUSLY, but...

The bullshit made me a bigger fan, tbh. He's a straight-shooter, can't hate on that.

Yeah it was kinda "Ransom"ish for awhile. I really like the role of the hitman in that one... he could carry a supporting role I am sure.

crazy that Mel might actually break through all the controversy, especially considering he committed the ULTIMATE hollywood sin: antisemitic remarks

But Jews like money and Mel is a cash cow.

I've never given a shit about what actors do in their personal lives. I put down money to see them act, not give two shits about what causes they support (on the good side) or however many bitches they slap around (on the bad side).

It feels strange to say this, but I never saw the drunken, raving lunatic we heard on the tapes as the "real" Mel Gibson. Even now, he strikes me as a great actor and filmmaker whose alcoholism derailed his personal and professional life, but not as a bad person. I may be either fooled or plain delusional, but I'm still a fan.

This is how I feel also, I don't have problem with him and I hope this film does well for him.

My problem with this film will be the character played by Jodie Foster----she's just so unfeminine and unsexy to me, that I find myself unable to enjoy her in any role where she is the love interest.
But with her directing, I'd still expect it to be a decent flick.

I think Mel's talent is truly behind the camera.
