i'm not convinced. i think he could come out of it. i may be wrong. but i think he will. it would be horrible if he was blacklisted.
 
I think hes got enough money to warrent a blacklist by the Jewish powers that be in hollywood

"Domestic: $370,782,930 60.6%
+ Foreign: $241,116,490 39.4%
= Worldwide: $611,899,420 "

from box office mojo
 
You think a DUI has ruined him ?

LOL

This isn't some flash in the pan or upcoming talent; Mel has PWNT Hollywood for 20 years.

That's the problem, you can't blacklist a guy with $400 million (or more) dollars. And since he was the primary producer and distributor you do the math. Gibson would have to kill someone in cold blood without a shadow of a doubt or totally become a Courtney Love style druggie, (and frankly that hasn't really ruined Love's career).

As for the "Jewish powers" the anti-defamation has already forgiven him and the story basically went away after a week or so. Keep in mind Gibson is working on a film about the holocaust. (So I've heard). People still love Gibson and many people do worse and get a free pass.

Actually that's the whole point, Hollywood hasn't mastered him.

Who cares as long as he's making good movies. A small faction trying to discredit him will just fuel the fire. After all, Publicity in the form of controversy always sells tickets, and it always will.
 
Everybody's got their own agenda. Some don't like certain actors because they have a problem with their agenda but they quickly overlook their own "pet" actors because they agree with their: read, polictics, religion, life style, whatever. The thing is, we're all a bit hypocritical. We say, "well, I agree with this shithead, so he's okay. This asshat pisses me off, so I'm not going to support his agenda." I'm as guilty as anyone else, but I'm not striking Mel off my "to see" list.

This is closer to the truth of the matter than anything else.
