...'cause I usually hate this type of BS, but I thought Christian Bale's flip out was pretty damn funny and over-the-top.

    What are you talking about? TMZ is the best. They asked Sarah Palin if she's seen Nailin' Palin, today. A lot of it is filmed in my neighborhood so it's funny like that, too. Hey, look. They're filming in front of my girlfriends work again. LOL.

    Sounds like that guy forgot how important actors are!

    I didn't know he was English. He's still a good actor but needs some serious anger manageement classes or to stay away from the steroids.

    So he's an actor,a good one at that, and they where filming and some guy ruins it? How is he an asshole?

    Did the guy really deserve to get reamed out like that in front of the entire set? Even if someone's being a bit of a prick, there are classier ways of dealing with it than that.

    Funny that the film company made sure the insurers had a copy of this, in the event Bale walked off set. I dunno, maybe that's standard practice, but there seems to be some suggestion that Bale is known not to be above this kind of behaviour.

    Dude is a DP on a high-profile major motion picture. You would hope somebody at that point would get a clue.

    I don't know man, I guess i'm just riding for dude because he is a great actor and the DP in somewhat in the wrong. If this was just a regular half-wit I can honestly say I would see it different.

    Yes.

    I like Bale as an actor, but it seems he is just another primadonna f*cking actor. What a tosser. Will this cause me to boycott his films? No. Will this cause me to think he is a self-centered dork? Yes.

    I mean he was a child actor too. These famous actor types seem to lose all sense of reality. At least he isn't knocking over convenience stores. That said, "self-centered dork" covers it.

    ehhhh...maybe the DP had been doing this shit all frickin day and bale had asked him before not to enter his scene a few times before we heard the freak out. DP clams up and doesnt defend himself, so maybe dude was fuggin shit up...

    we only have bale's word for it that the other guy "ruins it." and besides, on a film set, for every scene they do take after take after take. for one to be ruined is no big deal, unless you're blowing something up that can't be blown up twice, or you nail a scene like it's never been nailed before. I would have to imagine Bale has "ruined" many takes on this film and hasn't been talked to by anyone in anything close to this manner. And, perspective: this is a Terminator movie being made by McG; we're not talking about Citizen Kane here.

    maybe after working with Herzog on Rescue Dawn, Bale got bitten by the Klaus Kinski bug. If that's the case, he should rewatch My Best Fiend and make his rants both more delirious and more inventive from this point forward.

    Why does Bale's accent keep on slipping all over the place - very strange. I took it as read at this point in his career that Bale's a complete jerk off who has absolutely zero sense of humour. Doesn't stop me enjoying the movies he's in or rating him as an actor like most of the big names in Hollywood.

    That clip's still probably going to be about twenty times more entertaining than this movie anyway.

    McG


    This dude.

    How does he continue to get work? I mean, a Charlie's Angels movie was never going to be the zenith of cinematic achievement in this or a million other lifetimes, but any director worth the appellation ought to be able to make a decent popcorn movie out of it, especially when you've got a bunch of marquee-name eye candy on board. Yet Full Throttle was an absolute f*ckin' dog's breakfast of a picture. "Hey, let's get Cameron Diaz to do the Dorky White Girl dance to Baby Got Back! It'll be so kewl, because, like, she's got no butt an' shit..."

    If we all stop enjoying the art created by people who had at one time or another behaved like major arseholes, we'd probably have to close this place down.
