Mel Gibson Jokes About Latest Rant With Jay Leno: I've Got a Bit of a Temper ...

by at .

Mel Gibson appeared on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno last night and surprisingly, he willingly brought up his most recent secretly recorded meltdown.

He joked about it repeatedly, no less.

The now-infamous Mel Gibson rant, in which he RAGED at Joe Eszterhas (and was taped in his own home, unwittingly, by Eszterhas' son), was over the top, he conceded. Still, Mel believes his privacy was violated and his actions were "justified." Why?

Eszterhas' script for The Maccabees was non-existent, then awful, Mel said, proceeding to slam the screenwriter for selling him out hardcore in a nine-page letter released online - before he leaked the audiotape.

"If he put half as much time and effort and creativity and imagination into a screenplay, which he was supposed to write, as he did into that letter, we wouldn't be having this conversation," Gibson said of Joe Eszterhas.

As for the rant itself, Leno asked, "So what were you doing, just swearing at the guy?"

"Yeah, pretty much," Mel deadpanned, before adding self-deprecatingly, "Maybe you don't know this about me, but I've got a little bit of a temper."

    I've just watched Get the Gringo. That was the first pirated film I ever watched and had zero guilt at not paying the film-maker for it. And the reviewers have been right, its an aweful film. Terrible in every way. Plot, acting, cinematography. Nauseating. But oddly satisfying to see just how far he has fallen. You get your justice right here on earth, dear people.

    ---Hollywood now stands fatally X---posed for delivering 4 decades of retreads, soft porn, tech porn, torture porn, cultural incest and VAST predictive programming for the now unfolding capstone EUGENICS agenda. Gibson, s the last man standing, should break out of the 'authorized' controversies and START calling out Hollywood's KEY role in covering up the yet unfolding, EUGENICS 'friendly' RED Chinese Halocaust. HE and ONLY he is capable of taking on the 'mysteriously overlooked' ---20th ----30th ------40th -------50th -----------and NOW 60th Anniversary of the awesoely relevant, EUGENICS 'unfriendly' ------------------------KOREAN WAR----------------------------. ---ARE YOU THERE MEL GIBSON?????

    THE RUSSIAN WHORE HE WAS INVOLVED WITH, CONTINUES TO RIP HIM OFF, AND PRESS HIS BUTTONS. I THINK MOST OF MEL'S RANTS, ARE TRANSFERRED AGGRESSION. IF THE WHORE WOUND UP GETTING HIT BY A TRUCK, I THINK MEL WOULD HAVE A LOT LESS ANGER.
