>Mel Gibson is doing press for his well-received directorial effort Hacksaw Ridge, and during the process, the topic of multimillion-dollar projects, including the superhero genre, happened to come up. In an interview with Deadline, Gibson was asked if these giant films actually required such massive budgets.
>"I don’t believe so. I look at them and scratch my head. I’m really baffled by it. I think there’s a lot of waste, but maybe if I did one of those things with the green screens I’d find out different. I don’t know. Maybe they do cost that much. I don’t know. It seems to me that you could do it for less."
>"Wow, I mean if you’re spending outrageous amounts of money, $180 million or more, I don’t know how you make it back after the tax man gets you, and after you give half to the exhibitors. What did they spend on Batman V Superman that they’re admitting to?"
>When Gibson was told the budget for Warner Bros. expensive superhero flick, the director balked at the $250 million total, which excludes any marketing the studio paid for. He didn't mince words. "And it’s a piece of s***."
>I don’t know how you make it back after the tax man gets you

the problem is, hiring good writers is a difficult expense to explain to your boss. "it's a guy typing at a computer either way, why does this guy cost more than that guy?" then you have to explain what quality is, and he'll want examples proving it makes more money
Michael Sanders
If you think his opinion of BvS is extreme, dont even get him started on Jews.
Charles Morris
>blaming the Jews for your small penis
Kayden Reyes
He wants Superman to get fucked by a pack of niggas
Alexander Edwards
Mel needs to kill Jews in Hollywood.
David Moore
>If you think his opinion of BvS is extreme Is it extreme, if the majority agrees with him?
But hey, maybe Mel will like it more if they tell him that Snyder comes from a family of christian "scientists".
Juan Anderson
He should be the director of Netflix's punisher >actually using the dick size insult Talking about no imagination
David Russell
Nobody tell him Wonder Woman is Jewish.
Joseph Allen
That's not really a "slam" but rather a considered criticism.
Caleb Martin
It's niggers you dumb nigger.
Nolan Hall
"The tax man" refers generally to tax collectors and, in this context, specifically to the Internal Revenue Service, the bureau of the United States Department of the Treasury responsible for collecting taxes.
Not that an worthless NEET like you would know anything about paying taxes, anyway.
Brandon Thomas
Why would an extremely devout catholic who belongs to a subsect of catholics who consider the papacy to have been empty since vatican 2 ever like someone for being part of one of the weirder protestant sects who believe prayer is magic? If I made a random guess I would think Gibson probably hates protestants as much or more than jews because of their heresy.
Luis Davis
Of course Mel doesn't give a shit about DC/WB.
They could have had George Miller's Justice League. They could have actually gotten ahead of Marvel in the Cinematic Universe game and probably managed to get a good movie to boot.
Instead they got Snyder, the worst thing to happen to Superheroes since Joel Schumacher.
Carson Ward
Reminder that Schumacher wanted a darker detective story but Warner Brothers told him it needed to be kid-friendly to sell toys.
Tyler Sanchez
>he thinks I need to imagine what is reality
no fuck off to Sup Forums as our good buddy Mel is only talking aboot movies he doesn't like
Adam Long
>maybe if I did one of those things with the green screens I’d find out different. I don’t know. Maybe they do cost that much. I don’t know.
OH MAN WHAT A SICK SLAM!!!!!!
Zachary Cook
What's the difference?
Carson Adams
He's not wrong.
Also >BASED MEL IS BACK
Did he find a fucking loophole in the Jew blacklist or something?
Andrew Watson
What I don't understand with the Super Hero genre is why Studios like Disney need to pay millions to these big name actors when they could put any decently cheap person in the cast and still make money. Kids don't give a shit about star power, they come to watch because of the faggots doing fantastic things in spandex.
Cameron Carter
That isn't really surprising though, the batman movies are huge shifts from the rest of his filmography
Thomas Gomez
He's mad that WB didn't ask him to return to the "Mad Max" movies.
Angel Robinson
I just said the dick size insult is cheap m8. Unless Sup Forums is your answer to everything. I wonder what kind of life is that? >sorry sir, we don't have anymore cheese > go back to Sup Forums >sir?
Josiah Thompson
Ugh ... I want to agree with him but he is a racist anti semitic so I dont know ...
Jonathan Scott
>forever branded a racist because of some shit he said when he was drunk one time
What kind of giant faggot are you? You've never said shit EVER? Grow up.
Wyatt Butler
So what? You agree with him on X and disagree with him on Y. Literally nothing wrong with that.
Christian Morales
shudup faget :DDD
Connor Rivera
>gets defensive over your small penis >bitches aboot Jews 1+1=2, like I said fuck off to Sup Forums
Daniel Howard
Yeah, kids do. But kids only make up so much of the audience....
Kids don't care about the size of Black Widow's ass, but I sure do.
Luke Harris
Jews aren't a race. How did they and muslims become one in the minds of general public when christians aren't?
Jordan Powell
Wait thats a good question how did bvs cost so much to make was it doomsday.
It sure as fuck was not lighting.
Jace Bell
Take it easy m8. The one getting mad here is you(maybe the dick joke was a little close to home for you). So it is true you can only answer go back to Sup Forums? How does that work for example let's say when they ask you for directions? > mister where can I find disneyworld > go back to Sup Forums > where is that Sup Forums?
Nathaniel Ward

Xavier Russell
The doomdsay cgi was literally reused from a different movie lol
Ethan Rogers
>>I don’t know how you make it back after the tax man gets you, and after you give half to the exhibitors
Careful there, Gibson.
William Smith
>This summer, >Gary Oldman stars... >...Directed by Mel Gibson... >"Naming the Merchant."
Jaxson Sullivan
Let's be honest here. Capeflicks is the cancer that is ruining the film industry and comic books.
Ryan Watson
Im not sure its that extreme an opinion. The film did cost more to make then it should have and it was a piece of shit.
Besides his views on jews arent that extreme sure he does not like them but not to an overly huge extent.
