Joe McCarthy lives! Katzenberg and Geffin are poor escuses for human being.

[MarkeyD]

Didn't a liberal scum recently say something like "There is a chill wind blowing"? Yeah, I know who it is, just can't stand to mention his name.

[Old Sarge]

I worked at Disney when Katzenberg was the terror of the backstages.

He was the perfect shadow for Eisner: underlings are cattle, penthouse or no house, "You don't work for Disney, you work for ME!", etc.

SKG is little better.

[Unam Sanctam]

This is terrible. Anti-Semitism is a bad thing, but Mel's film is not anti-Semitic, and why shouldn't anti-Christian bigotry not be a bad thing as well?

[Paul Atreides]

Did they threaten to blacklist Martin Scorcese, over The Last Temptation of Christ? Did anyone, in the media, predict an end to Martin's career?

[Sabertooth]

Neither of the chairmen would speak for attribution, but as one explained: "It doesn't matter what I say. It'll matter what I do. I will do something. I won't hire him. I won't support anything he's part of. Personally that's all I can do."

In other words, Mel Gibson will be blacklisted by the very same people who are still crying and wailing about the so-called "blacklisting" of fifty years ago.

And both Katzenberg and Geffen are homosexuals.

Something's really in the air.

[Argus]

Except for their checkbooks, everything else about these guys is small.

[Paul Atreides]

Also, wasn't it just a few years ago that all of Follywood was in a collective orgasm over a film, titled The People vs Larry Flynt, and what a great example of freedom of speech it was.

Somehow I doubt any of this bothers Gibson much. Seems he's chosen a different path.

[dirtbiker]

I say "To Hell with both of them!" Mel doesn't need them, and before all is said and done, they will be needing Mel........

[dirtbiker]

Seems he's chosen a different path.

Yes he has, the path AWAY from the usual liberal dogma that oozes out of Hollyweird these days.........

E.R. is on........gotta go!

[Reelect President Dubya]

"Mr. Gibson, are you now or have you ever been a member of a Christian organization?"

[Long Cut]

Hell, right NOW they're having a collective sigh-of-love over a flick called "Monster", which starred Charlize (what a pretentious name!) Theron (who won an Actor's Guild award for it).

In it, she plays Aileen Wuoronos, a lesbian serial killer.

How typical.

[MarkeyD]

I don't remember what the deal was with that film...

[teresat]

I'll go see this movie ten more times just to screw over these idiots...the movie was beautiful...if you believe...What is truth?

[Terry Mross]

Did you see what Robert Duvall said about Spielberg's visit to Cuba?

And Mel will be around a lot longer than these "studio" heads. Those guys come and go....it's called "the bottom line". But until they're gone, I guess Mel will "never eat lunch" in that town again.

[GhostofWCooper]

Mel Gibson doesn't need those snotty little back-biters. With the proceeds of "The Passion of the Christ" he will be able to produce another movie without any financing from the likes of these crumbs.

Regarding the movie, if I read my Bible correctly, the main points of the story were accurate to the text. There was some embellishment, but overall I'd have to say it was a faithful rendition of that Passover. The Lamb was sacrificed to pay for the sins of the world. And what a horrific price He paid. I had a knot in my stomach the whole time.

Dreamworks doesn't like the movie. Their control of the media is slipping away. Left up to Hollywierd, all we would ever see is trashy, violent, meaningless, semi-pornographic tripe.

[Paul Atreides]

From what I remember, it depicted Christ as seeing an alternate reality, in which he marries and beds Mary Magdalene. I think there were some other elements in the film which were controversial.
