Christian Bale = Douchebag #1

why was the guy walking on the set...maybe he is an idiot...maybe the scene was an excellent take and took a long time to get, or involved a lot of complex stunts

i don't agree with treating people like that..but if i was in the middle of recording my best basline ever and some assistant engineer intern comes in and unplugs something or deactivates my channel...i have to say i would certainly have some choice words for them.
 
he was accused of assault..not charged

he was released... ever think maybe his family is nuts or their was another motive?

he is a star...he was accused of something...if everytime a star is accused of something, meant they are guilty...we would have NO ONE to look up to.
 
And this is terribly unusual....how?

Actors and others yell at each other a lot. Football players scream at coaches on the sideline. Basketball coaches (named Knight) throw chairs or run back onto the floor in a display of temper.

To me, it's very inappropriate behavior and I don't work with people who act that way. But it does tend to happen in some professions and situations.
 
CB can do no wrong, the guy was just duh-duh-duh-ing on his scene! what'd you expect the guy to do?

Christian Bale said:
“Am I gonna [expletive] rip your lights down in the middle of the scene? Then why the [expletive] are you walking right through ‘Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh’ in the background,” Bale allegedly says. “What the [expletive] is with you? What the [expletive] don’t you understand?”
 
He just Bale'd into his old American Psycho character for a bit... no biggie...

That director will be found in the main entree of next week's "Hell's Kitchen" episode and we'll ALL be totally happy and content as TV Zombies! Just FREAKIN' entertain me!!

;)
 
where there is passion...there is emotion... where there is emotion, there will be situations arise where emotions boil over...it's the nature of the beast.

it isn't easy giving a great performance. give the guy a break...i've heard people scream worse things for getting cut off in a Wal-Mart parking lot.

Definitely his best performance.
 
See my comment in the Kanye West thread. Generally speaking, I don't care if the people who entertain me a douche's in real life. For all I know, half the posters in TB OT who make me laugh (or at least the ones I laugh at) are douches in real life, as long as I am entertained, that's all I need! :D

Mark,

If I make you laugh then I'm proud to say I've just helped prove your point.

Sincerely,
TheBigDouche
