>Despite having directed gruesome war epics and dramas such as Braveheart and Apocalypto, Mel Gibson still believes Marvel movies are "more violent" than any of his films.
>While doing an interview with The Washington Post about his latest effort, Hacksaw Ridge, Gibson was asked about the movie’s violent action sequences, which have been criticized by some to be at odds with the film’s pacifist main character, Desmond Doss.
>Doss, an American soldier and devout Christian, refused to fire a single weapon during World War II. But, he still won the Medal of Honor for saving 75 soldiers during the Battle of Okinawa.
>Gibson defended Hacksaw Ridge saying that modern movies contain “violence without a conscience,” which he thinks isn’t the case with any of his work.
>“To talk about the violence question, look at any Marvel movie,” Gibson told The Washington Post. “They’re more violent than anything that I’ve done, but [in my movies,] you give a s--- about the characters, which makes it matter more. That’s all I’ll say.”
I'm pretty neutral regarding his work but he's spot fuckin on about this.
Jack Phillips
Hm, thought hacksaw ridge was neutral but they dissed marvel
aaaaaaaaaand hidden.

I see where he's coming from, the action in marvel movies seemingly have zero consequences, something they tried to cover back on in Civil War.

Deadpool gets it way worse than Jesus H Christ.
Thomas Lopez
Read what he said you retarded marvelcuck
Parker King
violence doesn't necessarily mean blood and gore though. marvel movies are filled with intense but bloodless violence, which in some ways is worse because it shows violence without any real consequences
Thomas James
based Mel is right
Parker Price
Didn't he also call BvS a pile of shit a few months ago?
William Hill
Name a bad movie Gibson has made. He is our own slice of badass Aussie Grindhouse right here in America. Only he makes you feel that shit in your chest. Gibson is a director that will be remembered. Fight me
Hudson Allen
Keked at my own comment just now, I think I may have exaggerated a bit.
Forgive me jesus.
Charles Gray
he's right though. every marvel flick hordes of people get murdered, cities destroyed and no one gives a shit.
Alexander Howard
>filled with intense but bloodless violence Oh look you're wrong again.
Benjamin Cruz
Damn man, I think he might need a band-aid for that boo boo!
This. >watched the second GI movie with the nephews >plenty of dead terrorists to no surprise, but an entire task force of US soldiers is slaughtered, London is obliterated, IIRC some world leaders are killed, and no one cares. >the sequences where friendly forces are killed involve Inception-like dramatic music that sounds triumphant at times >nephews are cheering when terrorists die (very well) and oohing and ahhing when the Joes get attacked by US helicopters and London is obliterated.
It was a strange movie. I've never complained about "glorifying violence" before, because even movies that come under fire for it like Blackhawk Down handle the subject matter well. But not the second GI Joe.
Gibson has a point.
Aiden Rivera
>A few scrapes >They get up and laugh about it afterwards
You kinda proved based mel right again, cuck.
Nicholas Edwards
Both of these prove him right though, all the blood and guts in his movies has emotion behind it. It has weight and thought and it serves the story. Every marvel "superhero" straight up murders every goon they come across like nothing and then the villain tries to kill millions and cities get wrecked but no one gives a shit. They show violence as inconsequential and it's purely for flair
Lucas Hall
>people not getting his point he's saying the violence has impact and meaning in his films, marvel movies just glorify violence with endless waves of dead guys and cgi explosions that really has no impact at this point
shocked i even have to explain this.

The Expendables 3 would have worked just fine, Mel.

This copypasta is always hilarious. I wonder if this guy wrote it, or he just pastes it to feel like he belongs here.
Aaron Rivera
/myguy/ , /yourguy/... the savior Sup Forums needs. Mel is always right.
Levi Peterson
>pointing to the least successful movie of the franchise
Why though. Also, merely having blood in your movie and death on screen means you're glorifying violence less than a movie that treats war like a football match. The heroes never get injured, the villains are off-screen before they can suffer....why is killing unpleasant again?
Oh, right.
Hudson Martinez

>giant aliens crashing in to entire buildings Hundreds would've died in the first Avengers movie. Crushed to death by beams. Blood fucking everywhere.
The audience just doesn't imagine it that darkly because the movie doesn't make you care.
Hunter Murphy
The population of NYC is 8.4 million, and 3,000 died when just two buildings came down due to airplanes.
Otherwise you're entirely correct, but a correction was necessary lest someone start stirring shit up over a minor mistake. You know how these threads go.
Colton Richardson
Fair enough. Was just saying that tons of innocent people died in the first Avengers... people just don't give a shit.
Josiah Carter
The violence had no impact in Passion, we all knew Jesus was coming back after that anyway.
Carter Cooper
>no impact during the whipping scene yikes
Jonathan Campbell
Is that Pvt Parts?
Jaxson Adams
Once again, Marvel being BTFO and Snyder emerging as the god of modern Capekino. Even Gibson realizes that Marvel's violence is childish and insincere, while DC is emotionally pleasing and spiritually significant to the characters. For Snyder, the violence itself tells a story, while in Marveland, violence is only a sideshow.
Daniel White
>Why though. Because he's not in the first two.
I know he means the movies he's directed when he says "my movies," but he's acted in plenty of mindless violence flicks. However, given it's the Washington Post, it was probably a loaded question to begin with.
