- The first Lethal Weapon...Mel Gibson never looked back....superstardom and a chance to direct and really show what he could do...He would win an Oscar for Braveheart...Released on March 6, 1987, Lethal Weapon was No. 1 at the box office for three weeks before Blind Date supplanted it. It grossed $120.2 million worldwide and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Sound Mixing (Les Fresholtz, Dick Alexander, Vern Poore and Bill Nelson) (losing to The Last Emperor). It is widely considered to be one of the best buddy cop films of all time, influencing numerous "buddy cop" films such as Hot Fuzz, Tango & Cash, Bad Boys and the Rush Hour series.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we once called a "Movie Star".
Unfortunately, the studios have done a fantastic job at destroying them.
Was. He looks awful today. Lost his hair. Had to have his teeth fixed because of the smoking
@@David-bg3ct Yeah. That thing called life will get you.
Once? Mel is and always will be a great actor and director!
Mel is one of the greatest actors of our time! Forget all that b s rant he had. He's come a long way since then
He is one of the few actors who can convey a character's emotion and thoughts just by his eyes.
Is that an actor/actress thing to constantly move, twitch, grimace, shift eyes, and other facial movements to keep viewer attention? Is see many actor/actresses do this...
@@fitnesspoint2006 А ему нужно удерживать внимание зрителя?? Он один из тех единиц актеров, которые выражают себя.Выбор сделала публика,его смотрят миллионы,что говорит само за себя.Lethal weapon - шедевр своего жанра.
@@fitnesspoint2006 nice thought
@@xxlplldlq1307 they call me thoughtful
Tarzan.
No one can cancel Mel !
Agreed. They keep trying.
He’s still worth over 400 million after his divorce where the ex took over 400 million. Even if they cancel him, he’s still loaded.
The choice is not between subcribing or cancelling.
@@elizabethmcleod246 he apologized but we know who runs Hollyweird
He has been canceled
Martin Riggs might be my favorite movie character, definitely my favorite cop.
I always liked the guy & he's been through a great deal throughout his career but has grown immensely over time, respect.
His face is a work of art
INDEED!
So young! Nice looking. Love his eyes.
For sure, it’s a ✨masterpiece✨
It was but i hate the new perfect holywood teeth look. His teeth suited his face and he should have gotten a good dentist to replicate them Often people fill their mouths with teeth that simply changes the entire look of their face...this is what Mel did and they look what they are ...false. Well we all get old.
Thank you, I think he is good actor.
Love Mel, he's been that action star kind of guy, but with emotional depth and expressiveness, such a handsome and charming aussie bloke in this video, he's also a survivor, Hollywood almost completely crushed him, but he's a strong fella.
He looks so good here... I always liked Mel, very passionate man.
Hahaha the bus driver in the episode of South Park The Passion of the Jew thinks so too!
@@SuperColonel91 That's nice to know, enjoy watching cartoons little weirdo.
@@djpauliegee6571 I was just joking
@@djpauliegee6571 who do you think you'd talking to?
@@SuperColonel91 he is a idiot tbh :)
I always loved Mel. To hell with the haters.
Gosh! He's just.. perfect.. that voice, those eyes, that hair.. so handsome!!!
His eyes are like heaven
You've been!?
So am mine.
Holy CRAP, he was gorgeous.
I completely forgot how good looking he was. Total Tarzan🔥
My favourite actor. Always has been, always will be. He was so gorgeous back then too.
To this day Braveheart is still in my top 3 favorite movies of all time. Lost count how many times I've watched it. Always loved a behind-the-scenes docu they did during the shooting - there was a shot of him holding a small book "Directing An Epic For Dummies" - someone in the crew had made up as a joke. Thought that was funny as hell.
SILENT Braveheart is the best movie
Braveheart is phenomenal. One of the all time greats. The soundtrack takes half the credit. Its sublime.
Apocalypto was much better, never rated Braveheart
@@donaldduck7461 I liked apocalypto but its my least favorite of all his directed films. Still very good though! I felt like apocalypto was too long and yet braveheart is quite a bit longer but feels much shorter to me when I am watching it lol. I cant explain exactly why. The soundtrack to braveheart is one of the reasons the film is so cherished. I listen to it regularly even 25 years later.
@@Terron29 The opening scene with the aerial views of the Scottish highlands as the bagpipes begin is truly epic.
In his prime, he would have been a great Wolverine.
Never realized that. You are so right. He could pull off the Logan look
I watched Lethal Weapon last weekend and yes, my thoughts exactly. It's not just the physicality, it's the emotional vulnerability that he was capable of too.
His son Milo Gibson is an actor and would make a good Wolverine. Has the look.
He would make a great old man Logan now
Funny you say that. He was considered and they did art rendering of him as wolverine you can find online
33 years ago , damn. Feels like yesterday....
Mel with his Aussie accent. That accent has gone over the years and now he sounds 100% American.
@@ViziaFilms I'm well aware of that fact. But his accent was so broadly Australian when he lived here.
His American accent sounds more Australian than american.
It’s weird honestly. He literally lost his accent in his mid 30’s or around 40. I lived abroad for year for work and met expats who lived abroad for 30-40 years. People don’t tend to lose an accent in their 30’s or 40’s.
@@ViziaFilms His parents were Australian though
@@joelp5093 his dad is american and his mom is Irish
Lethal Weapon 1 is one of my all time favorite movies. I've seen it 100+ times by now, I know every line. A masterpiece.
I love all 4 parts.
A masterpiece AND a Christmas movie!
@@Jmarshall-kj4hc haha right?
@@triggerboy85v59 I guess i was turned off by Joe Pesci, it killed the suspense. But Pesci is good in other films.
It's a masterpiece, all 4. Especially 1-3
Man.... this is how I reemember him the first time I saw him in a movie - God gave him a double dip in the looks department.. Holy hell!!!
You really Mel Gibson...? That would be so cool 😅🥰
Have you seen him in 'Tim'?
@@romystumpy1197 I have!
Having grown up with him Downunder, I'm impressed by his intellectual artistry here, and the constant flashes in his expressions of myriad creative thoughts.
A compelled soul.
Is that an actor/actress thing to constantly move, twitch, grimace, shift eyes, and other facial movements to keep viewer attention? Is see many actor/actresses do this...
@@fitnesspoint2006Idk?Maybe he racked up before the interview?lol.
Mel Gibson...a guy that knows what's up.
U gay
You know 👊
He certainly does.
Not really. Bible bashing twat. But he does make a good movie. Well, did.
The years of smoking and hate have aged him.
Now I realize that his charm, in addition to being handsome, was always looking like a teenager. His gestures are typical of a person very young and full of life.
Other people his age in this video have rather blank faces. He looks like a person with visible emotions and feelings. Thus it also vitalizes whoever sees him. 🌷🙋🏻♀️
More like a person on cocaine. Watch his tongue and jaw. That is full on cocaine. Then the snorting and sniffing to blow more coke back into the nasal passage.. it’s textbook. Also brushing under his nose, clearing his throat. Now you can realize his cocaine use.
@@justinTime077 That's called ADHD these days, the MF's bipolar as well, but you should write a book, I'll read it.
@@4Everlast funny thing is a lot of bi-polar types gravitate toward cocaine, or are bipolar after they smash their brain’s neurotransmitters and receptors with coke.
Seems like you don’t believe me. That’s okay. I know what someone on coke looks like, and he’s doing the the snort to knock back the residue. The tongue darting and fishing around the mouth… It’s textbook.
@@justinTime077 Might be so, it was and is common in "high" society. I wasn't there.
how interesting observation, thanks
In his prime, The most Beautiful man of all time IMO .
Now he is so beautiful stil . He a sweet soul ❤
I agree
I love everything that Mel Gibson does. The Lethal Weapon series was some of the best action movies ever.
The most beautiful eyes on the planet 🌎🤩
Man he was hot as hell!
He still very hot now ❤
I love everything on this guy, being in love with him since I was 10 and my mom took me to watch mad max beyond thunderdome. Since that day I've followed his carrer and controversies, I love you Mel.
Can we appreciate the professional well articulated questions. Where are these type of journalists now?
Fame, carisma, coke, success, hair ... Mel was for sure the King of the eightees. What a dude. Still! Greetings from Bavaria germany
What's amazing is that he acquired the Australian accent by living there as a young boy for many years. Mel was born in Poughkeepsie, New York.
You were close, He was born in Peekskill, New York, born in 56.
He and his family moved to Australia when he was just 12 so I guess the reason for his accent. But you were right basically.
Not only a movie star but great actor which is rare
I miss these times.
One of my favourite ever... One of my childhood movie heroes. 🙌
Oh my God , I believe the 1999 Disney Tarzan was made to look like Mel !
That would make sense. Didn't know that but you might be right. Yeah...
We are the same age and i had a big crush on him then ....memories❤🙆
He looks beautiful here and also in the movie The Year of Living Dangerously. Great movie.
TYoLD was definitely peak Mel IMO.
Mel Gibson. The man that brought back the Aussie mullet with American flair in the 80s ( NUMBER ONE LETHAL WEAPON )
I duplicated the Riggs mane for my wife, which she loved. (Was tough to maintain, tho.)
His accent has evolved over the years. He was born in NY but raised in Australia 🇦🇺
A genius thats for sure, God bless him!
So down to earth and such a great actor
Several people below mentioned they didn't know he had an Australian accent. Have they not watched the original Mad Max series? How could you be a Mel Gibson fan and not watch them? And of course, there's 'Gallipoli,' one of the best anti-war movies ever made.
Even in Lethal Weapon 1-3 his Aussie accent always shows
the original mad Max was dubbed with yank accents for the American audiences
And “The Year of Living Dangerously “ amazing film. Playing an Australian reporter.
@@nenabunena Really?
I am from Philadelphia and in 1999 I went over to Australia for about two months to travel around and unbeknownst to me I picked up in Australian accent. It was so good that I played around a golf with two locals north of Sydney and they didn't know until the 17th hole that I was from America. They thought I was pulling a fast one on them with the accent, but I just said it's something I normally acquired speaking to the people and just living there for that time. Upon coming home I had quite a hard deal in kicking the accent with people telling me that I was getting annoying using it, but I told him it was nothing I was doing on purpose. Gradually it faded away.
That's the most face touching I've ever seen in an interview...bravo man.
It's kind of a soothing thing going on ,
Mel is so handsome. ❤️ From India
Back when they made real movie stars, with real charisma and masculine energy.
Preach Sam...preach!!!
One of the few actors or leading men that was a man’s man but also had broad appeal to women obviously lol. Dude was ridiculously good looking and his charisma was off the chart.
My dad was like that, very alpha, but talkative which is bizarre for a dominant man to be. He followed Mad Max, and I never knew why he liked that movie(s). He would observe movies to incorporate these characters into his own persona I think. Of course, he was uniquely himself. He'd watch the Sopranos, and Eastwood, and just a whole host of movies. I had no interest in them. I'd rather read books. He liked to think of himself as lawyerly, and with common sense. Sure, big brained, he had that, but idk, I never got to his level and don't think I ever could have. It was a "from birth" kinda thing. I'm me, you're you, and he's he. You can only carve your own path, be who you are.
this man is a legend
His charisma in his early 30 was already amazing, also looking handsome - no wonder he grow up to a superstar!
Damn Mel had serious good looks
I'm Back, Mel did have Serious good looks. Movie star, bonefied Star from the charisma. normal life Mel Gibson you font ever make a bad Action 🎬 movie. And that's acting
He did the voice of John Smith in Pocahontas (1995) in this video he even looks like John Smith
He was a gorgeous man.
He is so gorgeous now still ❤
I get nostalgic when i hear his Aussie accent.Maybe it's because i'm Australian?lol.
Miss his Aussie accent and easiness! This is a real man's man, before Hollyweird took over and stuffed him up! Imho probably the worlds greatest actor and director!
Apocalypto one of the best films ever
He was not born with that Australian accent. He acquired it living there as a young boy as his father moved the entire family to Australia when he was young. When he got back to the States, he gradually lost the accent.
@@jameshoran8 nobody is "born with an accent" -__-
@@jameshoran8 Umm I think that we know that James. lol
Wow, look at that thick, feathered hairdo!! So 80's. Looking good Mel. :) He always seemed so wound up and agitated, but it was that energy that created movies like Braveheart, The Passion of the Christ, and Hacksaw Ridge. Keep up the good work Mel.
He's my favorite actor 😍 he was very cute then now he looks handsome 😍 I love him and his movies 🍿😍 a damn good director and a actor and a great father❤
He's way more relaxed over here then he's in the present. He now always acts and looks so tensed.
Yeah, he struggled with alcohol too.
that's because he cares what other people think
That man's lions main is perfect. Fantastic actor!
WHAT A LEGEND THIS MAN IS🎇💪⭐❤️
He actually has [had] an old school Australian accent here, the accent has changed since then. Reminds me of old doco's where their speaking to old timers in the pub in the 70's.
Well we've had a lot of immigration since then so our accent has changed a little.
Just watched him in Tequila Sunrise and was absolutely smitten every time his Aussie accent broke through. Sucks that he couldn’t let it loose after his early films. Unless you count The Beaver😏
All time favorite cop movie.
Mel GIBSON évoque la première fois qu'il a été sur scène et ce qu'il a ressenti ; ses jambes ne le soutenaient plus ! Et là, le souvenir est si intense qu'il en glisse du fauteuil ! Je vis son émotion en différé.❤️🗽🗼
Aussies are such beautiful looking people, guys and gals!
Hes american lol
@@emptyblank099a He's Aussie
@@emptyblank099a Born in America maybe but his background is Irish. Nicole Kidman had Australian parents but was born in Hawaii so should we now call her American? He may have been born in America but his upbringing was in Australia and his ancestors were Irish, so yes he's Irish. His grandmother was also Australian on his fathers side.
That hair is amazing
I think this is the first time I see Mel's hair on the slight blond side.
You can see that Mel stayed in America for his career. Most people who are brought up in Australia who came from other countries never want to leave Australia to move back the countries of their birth. Even Mason Cox who is an American who plays Aussie Rules football (AFL) has duel citizenship and does not want to leave Melbourne.
He is the Most Stunning Man! He was what Brad Pitt became 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
😀
Thank you for posting, great memories!
Just watched this video as the film was one of my favs , and realised how much Mel looks like Bono from around the same time , looked it up & sure enough Mels mother was Irish ...
they just have that certain look about them.
Gorgeous man! Love his longer hair. I'd marry him if he asked me to.
i love the classic tbs trailers for the lethal weapon movies weather or not Mel is American or not., love mel's movies, he is one of the few how he feels bc of his eyes , the passion he has for acting and directing is awesome.
I’m in love with Mel Gibson 💞💞💞
So hard attitude the interviewer is approaching with. please work on loving-kindness with the questioning for the humble of it.
Very down to earth credible guy who seems sincere.
Australian actors always blow hollywood up to the sky like
Mel gibson
Heath ledger
He was always going to make it with those looks
He was one of the most gorgeous men I'd ever laid eyes on. Only him & one other man and: I ain't saying who he is!
He really does not enjoy being interviewed you can tell. He is very guarded and doesn't trust the press.... I do not blame him. He was one fine looking man. I loved the long hair. lol... I hope he is happy now but felt it very sad that he and his wife split. I think she was the glue that kept him grounded and he probably still loves her, most men do even after their split. I know he said he loved her a lot whilst they were married. Anyway i wish him well now.
I agree I think he needed his wife to ground him. Sad that they split
Wow! I never realized Mel Gibson was Australian ! He even had the accent!
He's not Australian. He's American but moved to Australia when he was 12.
@@mitchelllombard3789he's both and also hes an Australian citizen.
The questions were not real. One of the best actors.
My god he was so gorgeous
Sounds more like an interrogation than an interview somehow.
Thankyou for your feedback.
He was 31 here and already had 4 kids with another on the way. Mel was always the man.
His smile so captivating
First time I heard his Aussie Accent! So weird...but can still hear his usual Mel Gibson voice . So sexy! Love Mel. So talented!
I really like Mel Gibson in movies. He's really a good actor. Can't wait till the new lethal weapon movie comes out he's going to make. It's going to be good
Still waiting for Passion of the Christ 2
Great gem of an interview.
Amazing how young he looks
maybe because he was young ?
Love Mel. I'm excited for the next passion film
Is he ever handsome...those eyes ...wow...
Brilliant director and great actor.
Hahahaha Did u see his reactions? Love this guy!! Bless his heart!
Najkrajší ,najkraší. Milovala som tohto chlapa. Prototyp krasneho muža❤😎👌
1985.
He was more Australian than American his accent is Australian.
I know that he grow up in Australia 🇦🇺 .
He has a cigarette on his hand, just noticed... so glad he quit smoking for quite a while... he's so handsome, geez!!
Sounds so much better with an Aussie accent.
Mel such a beautiful and handsome man. I love him. I have had family members meet him and friends meet him and they say he is a cool guy!! I love it! He dropped the accent or No I'm sorry he covered the accent is that what they say? I can't believe that Bruce [Handsome] Willis was offered the role in LETHAL WEAPON and passed it over. But him in DIE HARD was Amazing too!!! These guys are real AMERICANA! Iconic films that people LOVED!!! I know friends that have met Bruce too and said "He treated me like I was a friend" That is too cool for words baby!! I have lived in Hollywood and I have met many, I know how they are and that is amazing my friends. THX WOLFE
I like looking at people before fame affects them.
This man fell from the grace of earth and landed with a gruesome splat.
i love mel gibson in lethal weapon,,,,,,,, hes a fantastic actor
Seems so humble. I don't think he ever bought into his own hype.
