Ya know, I was thinking about Mel Gibson in the shower at lunch. I have a few moments here, so I thought I would share...but by that I meant I was in the shower thinking about Mel, not thinking about Mel in the shower.
With last years release of the Passion, it caused a lot of ruckus, ruckus that called Mel Gibson an anti-semite. I personally do not think this. However, if you look into the film history of Mel Gibson there is a trend of his characters rebelling against and killing English people. Thats right, Mel Gibson is racist towards English People. I will take you on a magical journey to prove my point.
Let us start with The Patriot. In the this movie Gibson plays a South Carolina American man during the American Revalution against...get this, THE ENGLISH! In this film, Mel Gibson says that war is not the way, that is until one of his sons (the really, really white one...I mean, its like looking at the moon) is killed by an English officer. This takes Mel down a sadistic path of redemption...because what is more redeeming than killing Her Majesty's armed forces? Oh, Mel even takes an axe and "filets" a young english officer. Ah yes, the joys of war.
Next we have "Chicken Run". A nice film with family marketing to attract young impressionable children. And thats what Mel wanted! Mel plays...An American chicken stuck inside an English chicken coup. Mel promptly retaliates and kills EVERYONE! EVERYONE! (so thats not quite how the movie went, but I think thats what Mel had in mind)
Next up is the tale of a Scotsman named William Wallace in a movie called "Braveheart". A movie in which the English body count goes way beyond the fingers on my hand.
Next in line we have a film called "Lethal Weapon"...there are no mention to the English in this movie, but you can see that look in Mel's eye. The look that says, "I will one day make a moving pictue show about the death of my Lord and Saviour, but until then, I will make movies with lots of nudity and dead english people".
Damn that Mel Gibson!
How about that for random !
