Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson were not giants, they were giants in the ring, they drew money, people loved them and that’s what you find in the Young Bucks.

Jim Ross

Oliver Stone should be given a helping hand – indeed, a vigorous shove – into the land of forced retirement. There, in the professional wilderness where he belongs, standing on a splintered soapbox right next to Mel Gibson’s, he can preach his anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism into the wind.

Ernest Cline

I always like Iain Banks science fiction stuff and William Gibson’s cyberpunk stuff from the 1980s.

Gibson has been making the finest electric guitars the world has ever witnessed for over 70 years. They are as American as God, guns and rock and roll.

Mel Gibson doesn’t need your judgment, he needs your prayers.

Debbie Gibson and dog food. I’ve always dreamed of this.
