Terminator 3 didn't do massively well iirc.

Terminator 1 + 2 are so old they don't count.

The director is a hack. The film will probably be terrible.

Just because its part of the Terminator franchise, doesn't mean its going to do well or have any credibility.

because they are old they don't count? thats convenient for you. terminator 2 came out in 91 its hardly 'old'

have you read the script? im sure mr bale has and wouldnt have agreed to do it had it not had credibility.

really poor post from you, ive hardly begun to pick holes in it. it would just be a waste of my time.
 
Yep, because he has been a well known actor and progressing up through the ranks quite a lot in the past few years.

Like you said, he has been signed, millions of dollars blah blah. Which kinda shows off his worth in the eyes of Hollywood.

If you think he can actually act or is worth it is another story :)
 
Just listened to this and i feel that CB overreacted, but that said when someone messes with your *** in your working life you have a reaction.


Oh and yes he is one of the most in demand actors at the minute, doing Terminator 4 isnt going to damage his career, the same way that doing Batman hasnt damaged his career.


Oh and Heath Ledger was over rated in the dark knight, in fact he was plain annoying in it :eek:
 
Not many people deserve to be talked to like that.

"I was... Looking at the light...."

"OOOHH WELLL GOOOOOOOOD. YOUUU WERE LOOOKING AT THE LIIIIIIIGHHHHHT!"

You'd think he got his arsecheeks out during an emotional scene, the way Bale's reacting.

Maybe he ought to be a bit professional and stop going on and on it!

:eek: I thought Heath was the saving grace of the dark knight to be honest, the rest were mediocre to say the least.

Don't get me started on the voice for Batman, made me want to shoot the TV screen every time he spoke.

On the whole we don't know the full circumstances of what happened here, it could have been the end of a perfect scene & the guy messed it up, who knows. Bit OTT though with all the swearing.

Looks like this is old news... it occured last summer within the same week that he had a similar spat with his family. Looks like he just had a bad week or something!

The voice bugged me too:(, almost spoilt it for me tbh.
 
Bale is an Awesome actor, so you can stop this tripe about him not being one. See American Psycho, The Machinist, Equilibrium (despite the whole film being poo, Bale's acting was superb) and his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman.

Honestly, I don't think he over reacted at all. The other guy walked into a scene. That is the epitome of things not to do when in a film crew, don't you think?
 
Bale is awesome! He can talk rubbish about anyone and get away with it!

On another note - it's probably very distracting when you're trying to act in a scene when some guy won't stop moving or talking in the background - it's all about getting in the moment :p
 
In all fairness, it wasn't the first time the other party had made the mistake. If you are doing something extremely stressful, I can imagine the same mistake made twice being incredibly irritating.

Then again, I would have stomped about for about 1/5 of the time that he did.
 
From an interview I seen of him before he said he was born in wales and moved to england when he was like a baby and has only been back to wales once. He didnt come accross as a nice guy in the interview tbh, I like his films but he seems like a **** in person
 
He's the kind of guy that's been in a bubble for the past several years. He probably no longer understands simplicities, such as, in normal life, if you were to start tonsil riding on someone like that in the middle of the office, you would get knocked down. It's impossible to listen to me, on tape, I can only imagine 40 people on the set in headphones clenching their fist with "shut up Bale" running through their heads. It's only because $200 million budget is dependant on the guy, everyone allows him for such antics. Sad, sad, man. And not very far from his American Psycho role at that.
 
He was acceptable in American Psycho, though not compelling. He simply failed to convey the necessary charisma and malice required for the part; he felt "matter of fact" rather than "cold and calculating". There was no chill factor. He was superb as the suave control freak businessman, but not so good as the sociopathic killer.

Dark Knight was a huge disappointment; he played an utterly unconvincing Batman, easily upstaged by Ledger and Caine. No grativas, no menace, no "anti-hero" vibes. Just a pretty boy in a costume.

I don't rate him as an actor.
 
I think Bale is great as Batman, even so far as saying best batman since Keaton (which is all tat hard I know following Kilmer and Clooney). The voice, so what if it sounds a little strange, I'm sure if when he spoke to the people he speaks to as BW they would twig he is Batman, he wears a disguise, he disguises his voice so what.

Also Bale is a good actor, he was brilliant in The Presitige as well.
