Mel Gibson is so cool =)

i totally want that mustache...

Mel is awesome

Mel will work it into his character being tortured at some point. He gets tortured in every movie. I certainly "get" the concept, thought Carrell would have done a better job. But with Mel, it could work. At long as the script is top-notch. Foster's a capable director. Little Man Tate was good.

I love Mel Gibson. I know we're not supposed to anymore, but I just can't help it. He's so charismatic and interesting.

Mindy (comment 10): There is no need to apologize for liking Mel Gibson. Here is an interesting comment (and there are ever more to be found on the internet): “People should stop misrepresenting their personal opinion that MG is a lightly inflammable bigot as a rational and established fact. It is a wrongful and prejudiced presumption. First, you have to believe that people are never unfair, or that drunk people are never unfair, to consider the type of incident that took place in 2006 proof that a person is a bigot, and that level of naivety would make you unfit to judge in the first place. Secondly, this incident was in reality a once in a lifetime event in over 50 years of life that shouldn't be misrepresented as the opposite, a characteristic trait. Some people keep abusing it that way despite that. However, when people have to twist a point to make a point not only do they not have a point, they have also cast doubt on their own motives and/or ability to reason in a balanced way. And if being unreasonable and making hurtful remarks at one moment in our lives, in an extreme and unusual set of circumstances, would make us nasty, hateful human beings who do not care about other people, not a lot of us could consider ourselves decent people anymore. Including the majority of those condemning MG. These people are a least great at applying double standards. Is it an unlikely scenario that a person would take cheap shots under the circumstances MG was in at the time? No, quite the contrary, it is actually a very likely one. Who could honestly claim that they wouldn't feel attacked and bullied if ever arrested, it is just an instinctive and natural reaction to having your freedom taken away. And when are we all most likely to take a cheap shot; when we feel bullied ourselves. Additionally, when is it most likely that we give into that type of emotion instead of stopping ourselves and letting our sense of fairness rule the way; when our defenses are down, for instance because we have been drinking. That is what MG meant when he said it was the stupid ramblings of a drunkard. That is what he apologized for. More and more people, fans and non-fans alike, are becoming increasingly alarmed by the amount of hatred and condescension that keeps coming MG's way. Contrary to MG, who became unreasonable and hostile on one occasion and apologized for it later, these people go on and on and show no remorse at all. The time that we are willing to take these continual attacks seriously is over. Whether MG is a bigot remains to be seen, one thing is clear though, many of those attacking him are at least themselves infected with the disease they accuse him of having: a hateful attitude with no respect for or interest in balancing facts and emotions”.

I agree with #8. I think Steve Carrell would have done a better job. To me he seems more charismatic and whimsical, which sounds fitting to a role like this. I don't doubt that Mel Gibson will do a fine job, as he is a talented actor, but I think the ending product will end being much darker.
