Morphing Mel (in an unadmiring bog)

Mel Gibson Morph I’m nobody! Who are you?

Are you nobody, too?

Thank goodness we are nobodies, because if we were a somebody like Mel Gibson, then some small frog might make a flash movie showing how WE have aged through the years, and THAT would be way scarier than this flash movie showing Mel Gibson getting old.

Trust me.

  1. Is it wrong that the only view of Mel I didn’t like was the one where he looked like Saddam Hussein?

  2. Michelle, I don’t like US Magazine’s caption. It’s like saying “from “hunk to diabetic!” Alcoholism does speed up the aging process, though. He’s only 50 or so, right?

    Honey, I never did like beards. I’m glad he lost that look! The rest of the shots look pretty reasonable for somebody not aging with a plastic surgeon’s help.

    Me, either, Lrlwreath. It would be a real horror flick!

  3. In general, I don’t think he’s aged too badly. The bulging of the eyes struck me. I didn’t remember them being so large. In that sequence the sudden enlargement is obvious. I wonder if he has Grave’s disease, or somesuch?

  4. Bonnie you stole my reply! I was going to say MINE would be a real horror flick! Not only the getting old, but chubby too! It would be scary just watching my chin grow into two!
    I agree with Honey, Mel isn’t aging too bad. I like all his looks. I too, am glad the Saddam look is over!

  5. Hello!

    Visting by way of m.g.’s blog. I’ve seen you over at Miss Snark’s too.

    Gads! I’d forgotten how amazingly good looking Mel once was … almost bee-u-tee-ful.

    I think the disease takes a big toll on charm as well as looks. It all strikes me as sad (maybe even pitiful).

    I hope the rehab takes and somebody nails him with the cluegun there. 😉

    Nice place –I love the grass!

  6. M.G., I think they just took that one wide-eyed shot of him with the beard, and made it the focal point of several photographs. I don’t think he’s got wide eyes like that all the time.

    Kelly, we shall grow old together, and who cares? Especially if we try to stay in shape like you are! I need to start working out again.

    Bernita, I’m sure you are aging most beautifully.

    Hey, Dink, thank you for dropping by. A talented photographer named Dinny has lots of beautiful photos for sale for websites—I got the grass photo from her.

    And if Mel isn’t shamed straight by all that’s gone on in the last two weeks, then I fear he’ll never get sober.

  7. I HATE the beard. But I love Mel. I think he’s matured, physically, very well. He does need help though. I know the things that were reported to come out of his mouth were not cool at all, but alchol, esp. if a person mixes or has an extra sensitivity to a certain type turns them into an entirely different personality. I’ve seen it. Two people I know turn into Tarzan and think they can take on the world when they drink Jack Daniels, or any kind of whiskey/bourbon, and another goes all Sybil when he drinks Gin. And none of them remember what they say or do the next day, for the most part.
