Creepy Mel and the White Boys
The above is a still frame from the Apocalypto teaser trailer. This is not a photoshoped image. It’s a creepy image of a grinning Mel Gibson, looking like Saddam Hussein (or Ted Kazanski as Matt suggested) with some sort of hand rolled cigarette dangling from his lip, leaning against a white-face-painted child actor from Apocalypto. This is just one single frame from the trailer.
I’m going to steer clear of the obvious jokes not only in regards to Mel’s arrest last year in which he went off on an antisemitic rant, but also his views on Jewish people in general and, of course, his views on women. I’m also going to steer clear of the craxy Mel jokes that are readily available all over teh internets. And I’m not even going to touch on the delicious irony that white supremacist Mel is posing with a group of children painted WHITE. Instead I’ll just let the still frame speak for itself. Just know this deer reader; the above image of Mel Gibson is the equivalent of an image surfacing of Tom Cruise trowing feces around a room while having sex with a man.
To see the frame in its original state view the Apocalypto teaser trailer then pause it when you see the monkey in the flashing montage about 3/4 the way through, then go backwards frame by frame for about 5-10 frames. Then you will see creepy Mel and the white boys.
