and fodder for late-night comedians after a series of rants and scandals prompted some of the industry's top players to say they wouldn't work with him.
In 2006, the actor was arrested for drunk driving and made anti-Semitic remarks to the arresting officer which were all caught on tape. He apologized, but Hollywood quickly began to shun him and his film “Apocalypto” during the subsequent award season. In the years that followed, Gibson was surrounded by controversy that included a headline-making interview during which he slammed a reporter who asked him about the 2006 incident and a recorded profane rant against his ex Oksana Grigorieva.
“Straight-to-streaming piece of sh-- stars an anti-Semitic, abusive racist who battered his ex-wife and a dude who went to jail for attacking and choking a woman,” one user “Mel Gibson is a legend, a real talent. Very rare in Hollywood. Great actor and a magnificent director. I’m a Puertorican and not offended by Force of Nature. At all.

Fox411 If he wants to make a movie about the hurricanes in Puerto Rico, maybe instead of it being about a white guy & Latin gangs, it should be about an orange President whose incompetent response to the hurricane made the Katrina response look like an organizational masterpiece.
Fox411 Wait, do they have Jews in Porto Rico?
