I think Mel Gibson could make ‘Passion of the Christ’ because he really believed in it and gave it his all.
Oliver Stone should be given a helping hand – indeed, a vigorous shove – into the land of forced retirement. There, in the professional wilderness where he belongs, standing on a splintered soapbox right next to Mel Gibson’s, he can preach his anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism into the wind.
Debbie Gibson and dog food. I’ve always dreamed of this.
I am Classic Rock Revisited. I revisit it every waking moment of my life because it has the spirit and the attitude and the fire and the middle finger. I am Rosa Parks with a Gibson guitar.
I really think the acoustics that Gibson’s been making for the last ten years or so are as good as any the company has ever produced and that’s saying a lot.
We make sure that we continue to educate our youth on who Althea Gibson and Arthur Ashe were.
The way I play, I go through a set in a year. So I put ’58 Gibson Jumbo Bass frets on all my necks.
I am the Great White Buffalo and I play an American-made Gibson guitar that can blow your head clean off at 100 paces.
Mel Gibson was lovely. He was on the edge of both scenes that I had with Danny Glover.
I love having the control over the end result and not having to go through some committee to get something approved. I feel sorry for people, like actors, because unless you’re Woody Allen or Mel Gibson, they don’t have much say in the decisions that affect their work.
During the 1970s and 1980s Gibson did use my likeness, but we never signed anything. This new Signature model is the first time we struck a formal written deal for a guitar with my name on it.
My name is Frances Louise McDormand, formerly known as Cynthia Ann Smith. I was born in Gibson City, Ill., in 1957. I identify as gender-normative, heterosexual, and white-trash American. My parents were not white trash. My birth mother was white trash.
The Negro League had some of the best players in history. Satchel Paige was probably one of the best pitchers in the history of baseball, and many believe catcher Josh Gibson was a better hitter than Babe Ruth.
I recall very early Mel Gibson films where he’s kind of cheeky. I wanted to embody those qualities, definitely.
Corporate Hollywood thinks I’m a geek to go back and do theater. They don’t understand why I don’t want to be a movie star, why I’m not pursuing Mel Gibson’s roles.
I faced Gibson many times and faced Sandy Koufax three times.
I use Gibson guitars; I prefer the Les Paul custom.
Willie Wells, Ray Dandridge, Leon Day, Buck Leonard, Quincy Troupe, Satchel Paige – earlier than when he was called up – Oscar Charleston and Josh Gibson. You see what kind of talent we had, and guys in the majors knew it too.
I always like Iain Banks science fiction stuff and William Gibson’s cyberpunk stuff from the 1980s.
I love Mel Gibson… I’d like to ask him for a job.
I recall us selling out L.A.’s 5,000-capacity Gibson Amphitheatre and flying straight to Germany to play a 300-capacity room where we’d only sold 120 tickets. This was when ‘City Of Evil’ was really taking off in the U.S., but it seemed like Europe was less interested.
Corporate Hollywood thinks I’m a geek to go back and do theater. They don’t understand why I don’t want to be a movie star, why I’m not pursuing Mel Gibson’s roles.
Gibson wrote ‘Neuromancer’ on a typewriter, you know, before the technology he was writing about existed.
I remember watching Mel Gibson direct himself on ‘Braveheart’ and he would do two takes, shrug and move on.
I am the Great White Buffalo and I play an American-made Gibson guitar that can blow your head clean off at 100 paces.
I managed Dal Maxvill, and he’s now our general manager. I managed Bob Gibson. He’s a broadcaster. Tim McCarver. Bill White. Nellie Briles. He used to be a broadcaster. I tried to count them up one time.
I’ve been a baseball fan in the early part of my life, so through the ’70s and the ’80s, I was a huge fan. I actually followed the Dodgers back then, back in the Kirk Gibson years, Steve Garvey.
Working with Mel Gibson is a little like waltzing with a hurricane. It’s always exciting, and you’re never quite sure where it’s going to take you.
I love that Mel Gibson.
Being in the same sentence as Bob Gibson, that’s incredible.
I’ve got a EC3-35 Gibson, which is pretty cherished. I’ve got a vintage Reichenbacker 330 in fireglow, which is the other one I look after and don’t let the kids touch.
Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson were not giants, they were giants in the ring, they drew money, people loved them and that’s what you find in the Young Bucks.
We can’t compete with Mel Gibson, but we figured we could do our part.
Without question Gibson guitars are the finest, most revered guitars on the planet.
What actor wouldn’t want to work with Mel Gibson?
I’m not macho, I’m not a Mel Gibson sort of person.
I’ve been working with good directors – the Wachowski brothers, Spike Lee, Terry Gilliam, Mel Gibson… I love American movies, but I love European movies, too, and I want to do both.
Clemens, Seaver, Gibson, Maddux – I just don’t see myself in that category. I’m flattered that maybe it’s debatable at this point.
