Golly. The Future Saviour of Mankind™ has been taking lessons from Gordon Ramsay! (Hmmm... Ramsay's Futuristic Nightmares... where the chef comes in to help struggling post-apocalyptic resistance movements of Humanity... now that IS a great idea for a TV show... ) As for members of film crew walking ''a-dada-dada like this in the background'' (), imagine what Bale would've been like on the set of Lord of the Rings (when half of the extras were crew cameos...) The outburst reminds me of the famous Tom Baker outtakes during a corporate voiceover recording for a furniture company... the guy starts criticising his script, then seems to get bored and starts saying the first thigns that come into his head.
On this really crappy Canadian entertainment show, E!Talk Daily with Ben Mulroney (barf), they played the tape today. Before they played it, Mulroney actually said, "We warn you, what you're about to hear is extremely disturbing." I say that guy is ten times the douche bag Bale might be.
He's jumping accents and moods like no one else(Your a nice guy) From English to LA to nice to being borderline abusive I'm going to ****ing kick your ****ing ass if you don't shutup for a second!" you can almost see him ready to lunge at the DP but being held back
Pretty harsh times when a guy goes American psycho on you, surpised one of them didn't get the shaft. This will open a whole new world of criticism about the actor's behaviour, but maybe they can find some sort of equillibrium before Bale loses the prestige he's built up in recent years. Bale needs to say "I'm not there to make public enemies", and that he's generally nice to people and all the little animals.
Then again I wonder how many people read about it in newspapers belonging to Rupert Murdoch's empire of The Sun and The Times? [The twanging noise in the background is the sound of ZR's credibility being stretched - someone]
