Christian Bale was hilarious when he was saying “You’re a nice guy, you’re a nice guy…” Ha! Oi..Someone peed in his Cheerios that morning..Is it wrong that I still love him, even after this blow-up? I mean, everyone has a breaking point, eh?

And damn those Steelers…I figured they would win, but was hoping for the Cardinals..They so almost had it! Bah! Ahh well..They’ll go and cry into their millions of dollars for the next few days..

Wait, TAKEN was number one at your box office? That movie came out in September. I live in New Zealand, how did we get it months before you?

Christian Bale was kind of scary, and very pre-madonaish.
February 2nd, 2009 at 10:23 pm

I am so sick of John Douche bag Mayer.Every time he open his mouth it’s to get more attention. I wish he would go away. Totally disgusted that any one would give this douche bag a TV show. So not going to watch. I use to think Jennifer Aniston could do better but now I think she is as much of a douche bag as he is.

Whoo hoo for Pittsburgh!!! 6 rings baby! I was sweating those last 2 minutes but they pulled it out big at the end! Steeler Nation!!!!

THIS TOTALLY ruins my perception of CB, and im a HUGE CB FAN. I cant believe that he would talk to someone like this. He kept going on and on and on. Im so digusted with his behavoir.

Trent what the heck is going on with this Christian Bale thing? Where is this happening? Batman? I can’t believe this, it’s hilarious! He’s acting like quite the little bitch isn’t he? Very drama queen, I thought he was going to go after that guy at the end of the clip! OMG! hahahha
February 3rd, 2009 at 4:23 am
the christian bale thing almost made me cry..
i hope by some miracle this wasnt real…
its jus sad.
February 3rd, 2009 at 7:23 am
WOW, is all I can say of that Christian Bale blow-up… I guess we can say the stress of being a big movie star is getting to him? That diminishes his cuteness. :(
February 3rd, 2009 at 8:34 am
baaaaaaaaaahahahahah i feel so… VALIDATED. ive never liked christian bale. what a friggin drama queen.
the dude totally RUINED batmans voice. and then used it for john connor. i mean, WHO DOES THAT. ruined both batman AND john connor.
hahahahah dude thinks he owns that set, oy vey. can you say spoiled as a child much?
‘Ive never had a dp behave like this’
LOSER. go away christian bale. what a turd.
that made my day. thanks trent! :)
February 3rd, 2009 at 1:34 pm
haha the christian bale clip is HILARIOUS! haha…. the part where the guy says “i was looking at the lights” just cracked me up… hahaha
February 3rd, 2009 at 3:56 pm
Doesn’t Christian Bale have a British accent? He sounds very American in the sound clip, maybe he was in character?
February 3rd, 2009 at 11:04 am
Yeah I am still in love with Christian Bale, although the clip is a bit much…
February 3rd, 2009 at 11:41 am
What is a ‘DP’? I thought the Christian Bale clip was hilarious. There is a guy who remixed it on youtube…so fuuny!!!
February 3rd, 2009 at 2:21 pm
OH MY GOD! christian bale cracks me the hell up! that was the most funniest thing i have ever heard! EVER!
February 3rd, 2009 at 3:12 pm
Claire, CB has lived in the US for awhile now but you’re right, he’s Welsh. Yeah, I’ve always stood up for him when people I know who’ve met him say he’s an a-hole but he totally crossed the line. Not only is there no reason for speaking to anyone like that but his melodrama expends MORE time and money. McG really needed to take control of that set and clearly he didn’t. Stardom is too tenuous these days–there’s no need to bow down to the prima donna that CB has clearly become. And I keep thinking to myself, wow, I don’t think you would ever have caught Heath Ledger acting that way. And your daughter will hear that one day, Chris–way to go.

@AshleyB – I’m assuming ‘DP’ stands for Director of Photography, which would explain why the guy was looking at the lights.
February 4th, 2009 at 11:10 am
Get off Christian Bale.
It sounds like the DP was being a screw up. Yes, he maybe went too far, but who hasn’t completely lost it on someone at least once in their life ?
For all we know, he may have realized later he overreacted a bit and felt ashamed.
Besides, it was funny and the man is still hotter than hell !!!

@AshleyB – Thank you so much for the heads up on that YouTube mix. Totally awesome!
