Just another day at work for Mr. Gibson.
Gibson: “You know I directed Braveheart, right?”
Random Bits
~Wow, people really hate Mel Gibson. I never really liked the guy after he started to lose his mind. However his last movie kicked major ass, and I wanted to hate it. Sure, he's a jerk, but man you don't have to boo him. Check out Apocalypto
~So, Avril Lavigne has an anti-Perez Hilton web site. I really don't know what to make of this. On one hand, I don't like Avril's music (it is damn catchy though). On the other hand, I hate Perez Hilton too, not as much as Rosie or Bill O'. Could they be working together for this beef?
~WTF? You would never see this ad here in the states. Then again would you want to? It has a bunch of CGI furries dancing and doing other disturbing things. I'll take those lovable Coke polar bears over those drunk and sexed up CGI furries. Definition of furries
~A very strange Michael Jackson mashup with his own songs. Somehow, it works. He remixes the Youtube videos into the mix too. Pretty good video. BTW, I am still looking for that extended cut of the 'Beat It' video.
i actually like mel... i never got a chance to watch apocalypto yet although i was dying to when it first came out... slipped my mind i guess... will do so soon
ReplyDeleteIt is a great film. It's a little violent, but a very good film. I think the bad press from Mel hurt the film's box office return.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed Apocalypto too, though I do think that he needs some sense knocked into him...
ReplyDeleteThat MJ mashup vid was pretty good; I've seen some similar vids recently. I haven't seen the full Beat It vid since the 80s, so I hope that you find it and share it here.
I've noticed Mel isnt listed as a director for anything else. You have to wonder if the powers have tried to hold him back.
ReplyDeleteI remember watching the full version years ago on VH1 and it hasn't surfaced since. It felt like a short film.
