@semiserious: I would chip in for that. But my money is on Jon settling down with a nice young 27-year-old. That way he has a few good years before she starts whining that she wants a baaaayyyyybeeee.
"Rebecca DeMornay, John Mahoney, Aidan Quinn, and Penelope Ann Miller have all been announced as cast members of Flipped, a tale about two kids falling in love, based on a young adult novel. And with a cast like that, it's bound to be... something"
Shouldn't there be, um, YOUNG PEOPLE in a movie about "two kids"?
Seriously, what the hell is Leno doing laughing it up with this douche, or giving him the "major celebrity" slot during his last week? Has he decided that no one but clueless geriatrics are going to watch his 10 p.m. show anyway? Or is this what he thinks mainstream America really wants to see?
He's been waayyyy out there for years. Hello?! He's Australian and completely covers his accent to be American. Not to be subtle, like New Yorkers practicing business English or someone else covering up a regional accent, but to pretend to be American. Look at his interviews when he did the first Mad Max.
@restless: I'll take "accent-covering" over mad anti-Semitic, "I don't disagree with my Holocaust-denying father" crap as vastly superior evidence of his being "out there".
@restless: Gibson is actually American. Born in NY, he only moved to Australia when he was 12. His dad's American, his mom's from Ireland originally. Not to defend him at all, but I can see how he could go back and forth with the accent, especially when he decided to make craptacular Hollywood flicks.
Octomom really is a horror, but here's a hugely rich guy making fun of the looks of a single mom whose story is sure to end badly and in the poorhouse. Wotta cretin.
I love that NOW he's an asshole, but when he went on a Jew-rant, well no one really got bothered by that and I had to keep hearing what a devout man he is.
So devout that he's cheated on his wife and knocked up some chick out of wedlock. He's as devout as Courtney Love. Can we (finally) write this piece of shit off?
@Trulymadlyme: well, they weren't too pissed to go see Apocalypto. There was a hubbub but he blamed it on being drunk, did his "outpatient" therapy to be absolved. There was always that willingness to forgive him because "he didn't know what he was doing, he was drunk" which a lot of people swallowed.
This seems far, far worse - his banging the drum against Vatican 2, starting his own Latin-language church - and then promptly cheating and knocking up his mistress. I f@#*$(@#ing hate hypocrites. He can join that whole Rush Limbaugh/Newt Gingrich/whoever-that-homespun-newscaster-who-had.../Tom Daschle pantheon.
@MsMuffinMcGuffin: I am one as well. My in-laws are not, and even my peer-group brothers- and sisters-in-law were very willing to accept his "I was drunk, I didn't know what I was saying" excuse. It was nauseating, but it is probably indicative of what a lot of non-Jews thought. You know, us being hyper-sensitive and all.
@FormerEnglishMajor: It may also be a generational thing. My Mother and her friends all loathe him.
I'm not a fan of Mel anymore either. That vile rant was the end for me. Most of my NY pals feel the same. But you are correct, some people are still willing to cut him some slack.
What is the age these days where people just laugh with you and ignore how rude you are? Or should we just start the apology countdown clock (with kinda-sorry-but-mostly-kissing-your-ass... smiling Mickey dial)?
I hope he keeps talking! Mel Gibson is just vile, and every time he opens his mouth, he somehow makes himself look even worse. His outrageous behavior, coupled with his insistence on identifying himself as a devout Catholic, makes me sad for people who call themselves that and actually mean it. Way to tarnish an entire religion with your crappiness, Mel. I hope his wife gets that $500 million for the time she put in with him.
