When he hurts people's feelings like that, it is like being a bad person...and with this diva, he even has done it in his own family.

I like him as an actor, but not so sure about him on set...and I would definitely not want to work with him on any set if he is this much of a douche.

Nobody has been saying that it was justified.

masoud90 · 02-03-2009, 02:34 AM

I didn't say that neither.

hardcorefrokid · 02-03-2009, 02:36 AM

That was kinda funny.

ssmith3046 · 02-03-2009, 02:37 AM

At least he didn't resort to physical violence like Russell Crowe and hit the guy with a phone. I will agree he went too far,

Pondosinatra · 02-03-2009, 02:38 AM

Good thing he didn't lose it on the set of American Psycho or he would have gone after someone with chainsaw

SillyMammo · 02-03-2009, 02:40 AM

Well, Bale did say it was the second time the DP had walked through a scene.

Pondosinatra · 02-03-2009, 02:41 AM

Maybe that's why Lucas said he'd rather not work with 'real' actors....

Geezer00003 · 02-03-2009, 02:58 AM

I say fire McG, Mr. "has no business directing a terminator movie"!!!!!
Dare I say Mr. Bale is the only good thing going for this production, yeah I dare. Perhaps they're a couple other descent actors like Carter and Ironside..........that's it!!!!!!!!
What good will come of this?
It might be Good but I'm not holding my breath.

Adhamhnon · 02-03-2009, 03:11 AM

I don't blame him at all, it's pretty one sided, and it's clear the other guy wasn't even apologetic about it, and had been doing it more than just this one time. People like to jump all over actors, but if someone at your job was constantly distracting you and hurting your work, especially if it's a job you love, you'd be pretty pissed too.

hey now, i think you should at least reserve judgment until you see the film itself. why fire someone when they could actually be putting together a decent movie

Absolutely not. But remember this. The only reason this movie has ANY credibility is Christian Bale. Had he not signed on, you'd probably have a shitty actor AND the already shitty director McG at the helm. Bale is pretty much running the show on this project because everyone else involved is a total joke with the intended audience. Seriously, McG? It's laughable that he's involved in this project. If your intended audience is the same as the Transformers audience, you don't hire the director of the Charlie's Angels movies.

Anyway, I think this incident is hilarious because it shows that Bale takes himself WAY TOO SERIOUSLY. He needs to look in the mirror and say, "Why so serious?"

I'm posting at home because I just got to listen to it and want to come back to the thread just saying I really don't think this is that big of a deal and I'll stick to what I said earlier.

I basically said that.... "It might be good but I'm not holding my breath".
Thing is they only have one shot at this.
Odds of it being great are diminished by the likes of McG.
At best(I'm afraid), Bale will be a bright light in this mess of a production.

+1

Oh he did direct an Offspring video, that's kinda similar to a Terminator movie

You bought the headlines eh? The real story behind his altercation with his mom and sister is that he was cleared of any wrongdoing. You know why? Because his mom and sister are drug addicts and they were trying to shake him down for money. They apparently assaulted him. He yelled at them. They called the cops.

And yes he has a wife and a daughter.

Yeah who knows.. without the full story it is hard to tell. For all we know the DP is the big a-hole. Or maybe he is just really unprofessional. Maybe Bale felt like he had to yetll at him or he would do it again. This is all one incident and you can only hear Bale talking. The other guy might not have been on tape or using gestures. Just saying never know

CobraComander · 02-03-2009, 04:25 AM

I've screamed at people like that before....sometimes they deserve it.
