More Mel-odrama

Okay that was cheesy. But it stays.

So anyway...

Disney begins the delicate process of inching away from noted Jew-hater Mel Gibson, with ABC cancelling his upcoming miniseries about the Holocaust. I hope that was a no-brainer, ABC.

Next on Disney's formidable chopping block may be Gibson's latest passion project, Apocalypto, the Mayan-language tour-de-force that is, perhaps, a thinly veiled vehicle for Gibson's long-held hatred of Spaniards (who, you gotta admit, have been responsible for their damn fair share of "all the wars in the world"). It's hard to be sure, though, because, you know, the movie's in fucking Mayan.

The trailers boast a release date of Summer 2006, but the latest data from Touchstone has the film slated for early December. Anyone know when the shift occurred?

Update: Never mind, Disney says they are going to move forward with the Mayan-language release of Apocalypto in December. The English-language release will follow never. And 73% of the country is so totally psyched for it!
