Apocalypto in the news - August 3rd Edition

A collection of quotations about Apocalypto, taken from various online news portals today: JewishJournal.com: "Arianna Huffington, of the eponymous huffingtonpost.com, urged Disney studios to scrap plans to distribute Gibson's next film "Apocalypto." UK Guardian Unlimited: "A survey of US public and film industry views suggests that the 50-year-old could turn the bad publicity to his advantage, just in time to plug his latest film Apocalypto." GetReligion: "However, there are factual questions, public questions that can be asked. What is the status of Gibson's controversial Mayan movie, Apocalypto? He should be editing it right now, since it remains unfinished. Media reports indicate that he is in an outpatient program." The UK Times Online: "...what happens if Apocalypto does the same kind of business as The Passion, and Gibson starts hiring for ten new projects? Is anyone seriously going to pass on that new Aston Martin or that new pad in the Hollywood Hills just to protest against racist comments made by an alcoholic at 2.30am outside a bar, for which the alcoholic in question has long ago apologised and undergone rehab?"
