Mel is one of the very few and very rare - who has the creative ability to act and direct in equal proficiency. His oeuvre is incredible and remains a grand testament to his ability. He has brought an abundance of diversity and dynamics to film that are unequalled in cinematic history !
I miss his aussie accent. I wish he went back to Australia and made more Australian films again. He much loved over there. I wonder why he doesn't do that? America pretty much spat him out and wants nothing to do with him again.
@@pnut3844able He's not an Aussie. He's American. Born in New York and grew up in New York. His family moved to Australia when he was 12, so he went to High School and drama school in Aus - but he's always been an American. He just picked up some of the accent in Australia.
@@redadamearthWhy are you Americans so hellbent on this? He lived his childhood in America. He lived his formative teenage years, and many years after that, in Australia. It helped form him. His grandmother was also Australian. Then he went back to America. He is both in a way, and I think he feels that way too. It doesn’t have to be either/or. Jeez
Mel Gibson has the charismatic glow. What makes no sense is the camera technology and editing technology is far superior today to anything back in the 1980s. But you watch the old movies and they have life. Their just so much better. What's happening to us?
I have got the whole collection of Mel Gibson Danny Glover and Joe Pesci in Lethal Weapon 1 2 3 4 as Patsy Kensit in Lethal Weapon 2 and I am dedicating these movie DVDS to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris and Hester from Billyxxxxx
He learned it or gained the accent when moved to Australia when he was a young kid as was born in New York and could hear the accent at times in Lethal Weapon and earlier films like Mad Max in 1979 and films that came after that that were filmed and released in Australia before he moved to United States in 1984.
He wasn’t made to be a carbon copy of Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger same with Bruce Willis as Willis and Gibsons characters were more human and not so stoic and muscular but they made their characters Riggs in Lethal Weapon and John McClane in Die Hard iconic when films came out in 1987 and 1988.

Uno de tantos guapos .por fuera , pero pordentro su corazón Solo Dios sabe. Esta viejo y todavia guapo, interesante., su color en general con el mio es como. Leche y espuma. Somos catires, yo vivo brosiada. Mucho sol fuerte en donde vivo. , tengo un hijo catirito. Como el. Oh OSBORNE. TIENE EL LUNAR DE OSBORNE MI HIJO.
He was born in New York in 1956 but moved with his family to Australia in late 1960s and his paternal grandmother was born there. Mel Gibson attended school in Australia and college as well and began his acting career as films like Mad Max and Tim in 1979 and Gallipoli were made in Australia before moved to United States by 1984 when made his American debut in film with The Bounty and went to star in Lethal Weapon in 1987.
I imagine it's more taxing than you realize to put it all out there and try to convincingly BECOME those characters. It takes long hours learning new skills, language dialects, etc.
80s Mel Gibson is more charismatic than any male leading actor today.
The average charisma of 2020's actors, both male and female, is that of a dead fish.
No shit
He really was and he still is. He is very underrated and he is really such a great talent.
OMG..WHAT A PERFECTLY GORGEOUS MAN...Physically, Mentally, Intellectually, Creatively...GENIUS!!
I know! Handsome facial features and great hair. ❤ You don't see men with long like that these days.
Before all the smoking and hate. He looks awful now. Lost most of his hair
Mel is a legend!
Definitly
Braveheart was a masterpiece
Mel Gibson is so handsome!! I think he is the best actor around and my favorite. He is talented in every way.
Get a room girl.
Mr.gibson, is one guy that Hollywood needs.
Mel Gibson helps Hollywood with his talent.
@@carmenhanna7867 Carmen, you are so correct about Mr.gibson, is acting talents are fantastic. Long live mr.mel gibson.
Well he's a Cappy like me. I get it. 😊
Such an amazing and unique person.
Sure he is the most wonderful human being i ever seen ❤

He is a real powerhouse.
His is a master director like Clint Eastwood.
I miss his aussie accent. I wish he went back to Australia and made more Australian films again. He much loved over there. I wonder why he doesn't do that? America pretty much spat him out and wants nothing to do with him again.
I completely forgot he was an aussie until I saw this. I guess he lost his accent over the years. It wasn't a real strong one to begin with.
I think Mel was born in America , and went back to Australia when he was a bit older , and then moved back to America.

He's Gorgeous Blue Eyes the best!

Mel Gibson actor 🚬🥃 legendary

I have got the whole collection of Mel Gibson Danny Glover and Joe Pesci in Lethal Weapon 1 2 3 4

and I am dedicating these movie DVDS to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris and Hester from Billyxxxxx
John Tibbets did and an excellent interview.
He’s an amazing star
That fro is Legendary! 😆
That's as much a fro as it is a pompadour. Damn son.
Mel is rocking an 80s mullet. The most perfect 90s mullet you'll ever see
He was Baba Yaga before Keanu….
Say what you want. He looks sexy with long hair!
An icon of 1980s virility.
Absolute Legend❤
I miss the old school mel
Er ist Fantastisch
The GOAT
I’m Australian and didn’t even realise he lived in Sydney for a time. I watched this video and was like, what in the actual fuck is going on here?!
Was this the greatest hair a man has ever had?
Smoking in the interview, boss level 😅
Mel should have stayed in Australia. We treat him better than Hollywood.
Well this aged poorly lol
I'll never understand how you lose the Australian accent
He had to learn it when he migrated to Australia, so it will have been easier to regress.
He learned it or gained the accent when moved to Australia when he was a young kid as was born in New York and could hear the accent at times in Lethal Weapon and earlier films like Mad Max in 1979 and films that came after that that were filmed and released in Australia before he moved to United States in 1984.
He's 🇦🇺🇱🇷 as very strong
Did we really have hair like that back then...
No we (you) didn't. He did.
Never realized he used to have an accent…
It suits him so well.
It slips out in lethal weapon 1 and 2 actually
@@nenabunena and 3 "boys and girls" bullet demonstration
he still had an australian accent back then
He looks likes a lion
Don't compare him to zlatan
Thundercast
Lionel thundercats haha
He looks like my mom in 91
Cutie Pie.
Future Mel comes out at 0:30
😂😂😂
Gorgeous!
Back in those days...Mel was the bomb. And aside from his physical limitations and limited looks, he was a good guy.
He wasn’t made to be a carbon copy of Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger same with Bruce Willis as Willis and Gibsons characters were more human and not so stoic and muscular but they made their characters Riggs in Lethal Weapon and John McClane in Die Hard iconic when films came out in 1987 and 1988.
Wtf? He's about as good looking as a man can get..
Geez ask about the movie. Christ though, Mel's voice is cool.

Before he unleashed his own hostility. Auzzie. Auzzie. Auzzie.
superclever, superhandsome, superfunny, whatelse? supermad maybe.
He sounds so Australian here

What’s his take on the new Matrix Aussie fascism
Should have played lionel thundercats haha his look here
البدايه باحتراف تنسيني النهايه وتمر بسرعه ساحقه
Wait, WAIT. He's an AUSSIE?!?!

yeah... nations need to be partitioned now more than ever, goose.
Thundercast
Ese es Mel Gibson o Leon-Ho...
Mel Gibson you are blessed not Lucky
The real Mel. This one out now is a clone
And where is the real one now..? 🤨
Mel isn't fooling me with that accent
Es un placer verlo y eso que a mí me gustan las mujeres
Lo mismo. Mel Gibson en Arma Letal es el ideal de masculinidad.
Yo admiro a Men Gibson por que tiene buenas películas Pero no creo que ARMA MORTAL supere a DURO de MATAR Por lo menos esa es mi opinión
Y como director es inclusive mejor Mel Gibson.
Reminds me of Rod Taylor
Was Rod Taylor Australian?
@@mitchelllombard3789 100% he was
You know, now that you mention it...Rod could have been his father
The resemblance is uncanny!!!
Too hard making four movies in a year, then take a year off. Tell that to the average Joe who has to work his entire life.
I imagine it's more taxing than you realize to put it all out there and try to convincingly BECOME those characters. It takes long hours learning new skills, language dialects, etc.
@@keithcanatsey9823absolutely. Not your average job.
A film (like his) takes at least half the year... not to mention that he already had a large family to manage.
