Earth to Hollyweird: You don't control film-making any more!

But he has also been known as a prankster and a self-confessed abuser of various substances. Many in the relentlessly secular movie industry see his recent religious conversion — he practices a traditionalist version of Roman Catholicism — as another form of addiction.

"When did you stop beating your wife, Mr. Gibson?" Man, are they running scared.

His crime earlier in life? He acted just like everybody else in Hollywood and did drugs. Hollywood had no problem with this...while Mel did his Judy Garland and brought money into the Media Machine. But now, whew boy! I guess to the movie mogals no kind of addiction is bad...except when you are "addicted" to God.

This is SO weird - I swear I didn't look at your post, before posting mine...just immediately had that reaction.

great minds, of like influence ;-)

With the money Gibson will make on Passion he can continue to make HIS OWN films without Hollyweird...and THIS is what they fear....

Gibson has gone HIS own was with three films: We Were Soldiers, The Patriot, and now Passion....

Plus, it is my guess that if Gibson appealed to the PUBLIC to invest in his movie company, he would be bankrolled quite handsomely, and he could say to Hollywierd...."DON'T NEED YA!!!!"

The NY Times stated:

"Hollywood is a close-knit world, and friendships and social contact are critical in the making of deals and the casting of movies. Many of Hollywood's most prominent figures are also Jewish."


Now wait just a darned minute (/sarcasm off) I thought we were all CRAZY Anti-Semites for (falsely) Holloywood of being dominated by rich jews ...


Me thinks the NY Times owes the Jewish Anti-Defammation League a BIG apology !
