God bless Hungary, and I’m sure he will.
Budapest is one of the nicer large cities in Europe. Not kidding, the lead story one night on Hungarian national news was about a Priest being robbed of the silver used for communion. National news, not local.
What counts for a dangerous neighborhood in Budapest means you might have someone pick your pocket.
I so want to go to Hungary, the birthplace of my relatives.
That same sense of normal prevails in a lot of red states as well. It’s the deep blue cities that are lunatic asylums.
Well, it’s not like Mel SHOT AND KILLED SOMEONE and WOUNDED ANOTHER on a movie set or anything. I mean, he’d be in BIG TROUBLE for something like THAT!
Wait. What...? ;)
I haven’t seen anything about his film about Christ’s resurrection.
The militants of cancel culture are always shocked when their methods don’t work. Over the years, so much effort has been wasted on trying to cancel Mel Gibson, but to their horror, people still like him. How dare they?
Brilliant director, but serious anger and bi-polar issues. Still wondering if he will ever sequel The Passion of the Christ?
Get me away from him! HE’S CRAZY! ROFL
Not sure why they call it cancel culture. Should simply be called Progressive culture.
Mel has a career because he produces great movies. It is simple. Hollywood produces trash. So, we prefer to watch a Mel Gibson movie even if the critics don’t.
Budapest would be in my top 3 places to live. Beautiful city and great people. Hungarian wine is great.
“There were times when the main purpose of movies and series was not indoctrination”
Looking at old TV series’ with today’s open eyes you see a lot of indoctrination back in the sixties and maybe even into the 50s.
My favorite TV show from the 60s “Combat!!!” always scripted.to indoctrinate something in every one of those episodes. Wagon Train, Rawhide...
Shakespearean themes in modern settings, or quality re-makes staying fairly true as rather pleasent as Shakespeare treated all with refreshingly equal defilement.
Didn’t daily beast first publish Steele dossier BS?
That sounds good. I'll be looking forward to it.
Poland, Czechia, Hungary on my list of early retirement choices. Especially with Orban and Duda. Two years on lock down.
He is an anti-Semite, because? He believes that the head of the biggest religion in Jerusalem, connived to murder Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity? It is just the truth.
He was arrested for driving drunk I think. The arresting officer was clearly Asian, yet Mel asked him if he was Jewish too. That always struck me as a bad joke, by a man who had been smeared and reviled by Semites, Jews and Gentiles as an anti-Semite. They even brought up that his Father was an anti-Semite. It seems to me that he had a pretty good reason to assume many people against him were these same Semites, Jews and Gentiles who were constantly on the attack against him. THEY were anti Mel Gibson, and he reacted.
Find out who you cannot criticize, and I show you your masters. Blacks, border jumpers, trannies, queers, mooslums and Jews. It seems like white anglo saxon protestants and Catholics are bottom dwellers. Even the Catholic church treats other than Caucasians as more valuable. Protestant Churches are now welcoming in the alphabet people, turning their pews into mosques at times. Yes, we caucasian Christians are shark bait at this time in History.
Been to Hungary 2 times back in the Eighties while under Soviet rule…got to sing with Continental Singers in the big St. Matthias Catholic Church! Built in or around the 12 th century, it was beautiful, worth a trip for those who love. Rich, historical places!
Mel is a practing Catholic who believes in God. Jewish people who many, not all, have no attachment to religion other than cultural events. Just as many Christians don’t really believe but they practice the societal rituals. Mel’s antisemit remarks were about precieved Jewish control in Hollywood; his drunken triad did reveal him to hate Jewish people but rather some he reasoned to be roadblocks or gatekeepers. Mel doesn’t hate Jews. I spent two years living in Isreal when that happened and there they distinguished between that rant and actual antisemitism.
