1. Please tell old Gary, that he LIVES in a world run by Jews,
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.24.14)
so it only makes sense that a tiny place like Hollywood is creeping with them as well. They say there's around 14 mil. of us in the world: ha, we've fooled them all! Including the 6 mil. that did not(!) perish in the WW2 there's about 134 million of f***ng Jews. Most of us hides in Banks and in the attics, (where we wait for the small Christian children to wander off, so we can suck their sweet, innocent blood): that's what makes us so smart & good with money... But shhh, let's keep it between us for now, OK?
2. hypocrites
tom ,   toronto, canada   (06.24.14)
i guess somebody should clarify what "hypocrite" means. it doesn't mean somebody who is smart enough not to hire, or associate with, a bigot who hates them and blames them for all the world's ills. it does apply to someone who believes one thing but says or does something different, just to get work. it would seem that both gibson and oldman fit that category. i'm not so sure about the f***ing part; it's usually impaired by excessive alcohol consumption.
3. the only thing worse than a bigot
(06.24.14)
is a bigot who believes the entire world is like him.
4. "please edit my comments......
tiki ,   belgium   (06.24.14)
For it's going to make me sound like a bigot". Well, Oldman already knows the answer....'what talks like a bigot, usually is a bigot and in the case of Mr. Oldman, a dumb one but, so are most bigots, as so eloquently put by @1 Tom from Tel Aviv.
5. @tom (TB #1)
emanon ,   USA   (06.24.14)
I'd like to put you in a time machine and send you back the the paradise time you fantasize about and see how long YOU last!
6. yes: the interview did go badly for you Mr Bigot
Rafi ,   US   (06.24.14)
... and too bad you elected to rationalize & defend a drunken, certified bigot like Mel Gibson (who BTW has a solid record of anti-Semitic outbursts). seems like a case of "Birds of a feather flock together"
7. To Nº 2:
Gady ,   Mexico City   (06.24.14)
You got it man! I am a succesfull Mexican Jewsh married professional, and I keep on wondering when am I going to be invited to a cementary in Prague to a meeting with jewish conspirators and to come out with a bag full of gold!!!, it just - doesn't - happen!!! I can't wait!!!
8. I don't want to live in an opinionless world
Joe Fraser ,   Canada   (06.24.14)
Politically correct is just another word for big brother. People should be free to be anti-semites, homophobic, islamo- fascist etc.. People should be free to express their opinions, as odious as those opinions may be... However, if the person who pays you is the one you opinionate about,, there are likely to be consequences commensurate with that opinion.
9. oldman answer
james ,   nyny   (06.24.14)
Outstanding actor, let's remember he merely is saying at one point in almost everyone's person life we have spoken ill about another human being race, creed, color, etc. We are not flawlessly. Gibson is a true anti semite, oldman points out the irony of us being hypocrites, unlike Gibson who I refuse to watch in anything, I'm willing to give Gary the benefit of the dought for now.
10. Ynet martyrs brigades call for Oldman´s head
Peter ,   Jerusalem   (06.24.14)
Put an end to intolerance they say.
11. Gary may be more like Mel than we know.
David ,   Hartford USA   (06.24.14)
Normal people don't happen to use nigger and kike (or wop or spic) in conversation- any conversation. The fact that you state that you do tells us more about you than we care to know. I always thought you were a great actor- and your comments prove it: you are a racist bigot and you've announced it to the world. You had us fooled! Don't be surprised when your cell phone contract is dropped, or when its many months before you get another acting gig. We f****** Jews have long memory. Tell us, did you arrive at this conclusion yourself or did you learn this from your mom and dad? It's just amazing how many pieces of sh-t are movie stars.
12. Gavriel Altmann ?
Joseph ,   London England   (06.24.14)
Mel Gibson's rant was no more acceptable in London, which is not 'run by Jews' than it was in Hollywood. There's a difference between speaking of one f---ing Jew and claiming Jews as a minority are responsible for all the world's troubles.
13. I Used To Like Oldman
emanon ,   USA   (06.24.14)
14. I also never use the "f" word.
nibor ,   israel   (06.24.14)
so uncreative, and so low class. well, we know who and what gary Oldman is, now don't we?
15. Actors have tiny brains
Yerushalmi ,   Jerusalem   (06.24.14)
Their job is to speak someone else's words, express someone else's ideas while trying to look like someone else. Gary Odlman is a good actor, it doesn't mean that any thought his brain comes up with is worth anything. I blame the media, who print any brainfart that a footballer, singer or actor comes up with as a space filler. It is irrelevant what they think
16. Oldman
BK ,   USA   (06.24.14)
Listen, not to be pc, you limey p.o.s.: Gibson and his old man are despicable, Jew-hating scum. If they have a right to their opinions and the filth that comes out of their mouths, then any Jew in Hollywood has a perfect right not to pay Gibson a cent. And if Jews are in control, they certainly are doing a poor job of pulling the strings, given all the anti-Semitic garbage going down all over the world.
17. His Son
Israel Club ,   Los Angeles, USA   (06.24.14)
His son went to my old school and constantly made Jewish and Nazi jokes. Now we know why.
18. #5: I'm all for freedom of expression, even if it's in bad
tom ,   tel aviv   (06.24.14)
taste, seriously. I despise the American phoney correctness, their "native this, native that" : it's sick & unhealthy! But when you begin to develop a general "conspiracy theory" that's when I get off the bus...
19. When you make movies better than Gibson
Miron ,   USA   (06.25.14)
I will accept your apology on his behalf.
20. It's amazing what has-been actors will say for attention !
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (06.25.14)
21. Why are Mel and his Dad Anti Jewish?
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.25.14)
For the same reason that Pharoah no longer recognized the Children of Israel and no longer knew Joseph. The Israelites had become too much like the Egyptians of their day. The Jews of America are in the same position and it is of their own making. Persecution and slavery began when the Children of Jacob / Israel forgot themselves and forgot who they were in Egypt, we were told they did not intermarry.. Maybe they did, maybe they did'nt. One thing is for sure the Jews of America have intermarried plenty. The early tremors of America becoming more and more Anti Jewish has just begun. The economic collapse will be the straw that breaks the camels back.
22. @7 - you dont have to travel that far;
(06.25.14)
the Abutbul clan (budapest, prague casinios and drugs) and Rottenshild mafia drug clan pampering with the drugs money our enemies for their purpose and whitewashing it by that; together with their beloved co-heads the GOTTI italian crime families are very active, not only in Europe but Mexico as well.. but if they will give you money just for free and nothing in return there you can seriously doubt about.. Criminal doing does never depend from born by or claiming born by. Same and same garbage loves to melt together !
23. The best part with any movie
benji   (07.08.14)
that Oldman was in was Airforce One...with Harrison ford telling him to "get off my plane".... and off went Oldman into the great blue yonder......and his brain stayed in that part.
