I always knew he was a dickhead. Apparently on Empire of the Sun he was a precocious little shit and he was only 10. That said he's a great actor. And I can't wait for T4
I like him. I think he's a dude. And I thought his 'rant' was perfectly understandable. I'd have done the same, or worse, if I'd been in that situation.
exactly!
"No I don't need any walking. He needs to STOP walking."
I agree with you both, and anyone who says he isn't a good actor hasn't watched The Machinist.
Serious how can you watch his movies now and not think of this outburst. I hope he gets run out of Hollywood.
I watch movies to be entertained. Not to judge a person, who may very well be a true asshole in real life, by a five minute sound bite of him (probably) at his very worst. I don't know Christian Bale, and from my experience, making snap judgments about what a person does when I don't know the whole story, usually makes me look silly.
"The dude abides. I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. The Dude. Takin' her easy for all us sinners."

Exactly, an amazing movie. What is more impressive is that he pretty much starved himself under he had wasted away to practically nothing and then put on about 100 pounds for batman. Granted personal trainers had something to do with that I am sure.

I think prick is putting it mildly :roll: and I'm sure he's probably not the first one either to treat someone like shit :roll: I would never see one of his movies again :evil: :twisted:
please. all it shows is that he's human. people you gotta let it go. he's allowed to be angry.
yeah, its like no one else in the world has been pissed off before and flipped out. his rant just happened to be recorded and put all over the internet. im not condoning what he did, but people need to just lay off.

I've NEVER flipped out at work in a professional setting like that, EVER. Competitive situations, home life, there probably have been some epic flip outs, but not professionally, ever! That was out of line and uncalled for. Quite simply: he's a dick

He has also used a different accent for each movie he has starred in. Apparently, its to help the audience differentiate between the characters he plays. When he does an interview for a movie he speaks in the accent of the character he played. Now thats dedication to your craft.
Yeah that was so wrong, he should apologize to that guy. He sounds like a big douchbag to me.
He did. He apologized and made right with the guy later on that day, which I guess was back in July. They worked together for the next couple of months after that.

give it a rest. he's a good actor. he's just a tad too intense. i think a lot of good actors might be like this. and this happened last summer. its not like it happened yesterday or something. for all we know this kind of thing happens a lot more frequent than any of us would guess. it just so happens that somebody got their hands on the audio and sold it to tmz or whomever and... WHAMMY! its on the internet. big fuckin' deal.
can you imagine if we had the internet for the last 100 years? oh the scandals we have missed out on...
(if there was a "thumbs down" thingy in here, rest asured, the jeagler would utilize it right now!)
go worry about something that matters...

Kinda gives you a different perspective. Doesn't seem like a prick on the radio. Plus he's an advocate for Michael Phelps

THE CREW WAS CLAPPING AFTER THE INCIDENT WENT DOWN
look at my avatar....If I say Bale's ok
You will be the one missing out. Besides: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=744720
Bale apologises for on-set meltdown
