Mel Gibson Beaver Images

Here’s an image from the set of Jodie Foster’s movie, The Beaver, about a man (Mel Gibson) who walks around with a beaver puppet attached to his hand, which he treats like a living creature. It’s sort of the bestiality version of Lars and the Real Girl, I guess.

I’d say it’s good to see that Mel Gibson is getting work in front of the camera again, but that’d be a lie. Also, what’s up Jodie? You take pity on the anti-Semite? Hey! We all make mistakes, right? A few anti-Semitic remarks ably backed up by The Passion of Christ is totally forgivable. Amiright?

Butthole.

So Mel is trying to turn crazy into crazyade?

I actually think Mel is a good actor, so maybe he can make it work. I'm not paying for it, but I'll watch it on cable, I guess.

I would strongly suggest changing the title of the movie, though.

What are you serious?
That's like the actual plot?
The fuck is this world coming to?

Oh dear god I swallowed a bug.

Somehow this movie seems like good punishment - public humiliation?

Down with Gibson! Up with Polanski! Right? Isn't that how this works?

Say what you will about the bastards, but they sure know story structure!

I heard the script for this was actually pretty good. Steve Carell was originally attached.

Based on those two pix up there -
The man involved -
And this Pa-Jibian crowd -
I'm just gonna sit back and watch the jokes get better and better.

Never mind the lack of good tv tonight.

Gibson as a plushophile. I can totally see that.

The Human Beaverpede starring Mel Gibson as the evil non-German doctor.

Posted by: Natalie at September 29, 2009 7:15 PM

I guess technically, that would actually be the puppet beaverpede. My bad.

"Me and my girlfreind are very happy together. No, the beaver isn't pregnant."

Mel Gibson demonstrates to his Alcoholics Anonymous group how he convinced the judge not to give him jail time.

"Hail Hitler! See, it's funny when the beaver does it. What the hells the big deal?"

With the construction of his church-at-home complete, Mr. Gibson reveals the One True God.

Dare I say, the beaver looks like it's enjoying it.

The Beaver from Brazil

Inglorious Communist Basterd Beavers

and the sequel, of course:

The Beaver II: In Richard Gere's Pants

Oh wait, I think I have my furry creatures mixed.

Actually, the more I think of this movie, the more I think of it as a single entendre.
Or actually more like a non-tendre.

The thing about beavers is not just that they are busy - even with a man's hand up the back door - but that they really aren't as soft or as fun as they might otherwise appear to be. Like muskrats and groundhogs, they don't do much but bitch, bite, fight, and burrow. I'm not sure, to be frank, why anyone would ever stick their hand up their. It can't be pleasant.

If I had to walk around with my hand up some animal's subterranean exit, I suppose I'd choose something with smaller teeth, softer fur, and a more forgiving disposition.

I'm just offering this pearl of wisdom up to anyone out there who saw the pic of good ol' boy Mel, happy as a clam and wearing a live beaver glove.

Sounds like a real life documentary of Mr. Garrison from South Park.

A few years ago there was a guy that roamed around Harvard Square talking to a basket full of stuffed animals. He'd go into restaurants and insist that the waiters put down place settings for all of his "friends." I wonder if the guy will take his "friends" to see this movie? And will he insist on paying full price for all their tickets?

My only fear is that the failure of this strange stunt will be so catastrophic and so utterly humiliating--like The Love Guru taken to the power of 10--that people might start feeling sorry for Mel Gibson.

Maybe that's the plan.

What man doesn't want to spend all day with his hand in a beaver?

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at September 29, 2009 10:17 PM

I read the script. It's dark as hell. This is NOT a comedy.

I don't think Mel Gibson pulls it off. I'm not sure anyone could. Basically Mel Gibson's character is a man that is obviously messed up mentally but he's so charming that people just let him go on with his act. It's really not that funny nor it supposed to be. The reason I don't think Mel will pull it off is because The Beaver (who he speaks through for most of the film) speaks in a Scottish accent. The movie goes to some dark, dark places later in the film, and if the movie doesn't set the right tone early on the transition will be too abrupt and alarming for the audience. We'll see how Jodie Foster handles it.

The header picture reminds me of that one scene in The Last Boyscout.

So... Beaverheart

Gotta say, that beaver looks damn happy in the header pic. Who are we to judge?

"Don't mind me. I'm just fisting my beaver."

Hum, Mel Gibson with his hand up a Beaver. Isn't that how he ended up with a pregnant girlfriend and a divorce?
