What has Mel Gibson ...
....got against England?
What a cunt....
I'm not Mel Gibson, but if I could answer: Mel was in a film titled "Braveheart" and not a film that promotes anti-English sentiments.
If the latter is the case, I'd be surprised the UK rakes Braveheart very low and considered hateful. I beg to differ.
He was also in a film called the Patriot

I don't think anyone who watched 'The Patriot' came away with the idea of hate, and disliking England. It's just a movie about a fictional story surrounding events of the American revolution.
Though your argument can be more refined, IMO, to "What has Mel Gibson got against Colonization?" Films would include Braveheart, The Patriot, and Apocalypto.
I should point out that in the time of Braveheart and the Battle of Stirling Bridge (what bridge in the movie?) that it was the English who were the enemy, but in The Patriot, it was most likely the British, consisting of English, Welsh and Scottish forces who were against the American colonists, so things had obviously changed.
You can point that out, but it was the Scottish lairds who were the real enemy. Longshanks army consisted of Irish and Welsh as well as English.
The American Revolutiom was actually British against British if you think about it as there was no United States at that time, only the colonies.

It still promotes it nonetheless.

Then he failed didn't he?

Just waiting for his next movie. The one where the heroic Adolf Hitler repels the wicked English from Dunkirk.
