What do you think of Mel Gibson since his drunken dirty mouth has gotten him in so much trouble?
I still respect the man. Braveheart is a classic. I've heard good things about The Passion of The Christ, but have not seen it yet. |

Still haven't found out what he said.
"Something like Jews created all the wars?" and calling the officer "sugar titts"More to it?
I remember reading a People magazine story on him drinking at some outback pubwhen I was working at an aluminium smelter.
It negatively concluded with.."and he never bought a round" |

Exactly.
And a foolish one at that.
Too bad fame and fortune can't buy you common sense.
We can even forget entirely about what he said, and he's still a fool.
When you can afford to buy an entire cab company much less pay for a cab home then you are a reckless negligent fool to get behind the wheel of a sportscar plastered. |

I voted fool, but I was confused and thought we were evaluating the OP. |

Thanks a lot man! It's nice that people have an opinion of me rather than no opinion. Cheers!
BTW, what does your avatar mean? |

You shouldn't take anything on Dave's too seriously. I was just taking a poke at him while respecting his work. I like Mel, but if he wants to be taken seriously as a director, he has to watch his mouth at all times drunk or not drunk.
Your avatar is cool. I sure wish people in this world would respect human life and just live with their differences. Who needs this war shiiiit? Your avatar sends that message. |

So, a person can't be both a genius and a fool? I would have voted for both had the option existed on your poll. |

If that were everyone's criteria, Hallmark would go out of business. |

Must be weird living in Hollywood. Like Korea without the kimchi....
There's a tradition of breaking down there. James Dean's crash, etc....
Mel Gibson these days looks like Tom Hanks in Castaway, except there was rum on the island.... |
