CHRISTIAN BALE tantrum on terminator set.

I agree. I would be irritated if that had happened to me, sure.

But he went off the deep-end. Trying to get the man fired is retarded, disrespecting him so badly is also retarded. If I was the lighting guy I'd be out of the job, and probably in jail, because I would have beat his little ass, his six-pack be damned.

Bale didn't try and get the guy fired in the sense he told the director 'shit-can this guy now', he said at the end 'if you do it again, I'm not walking on the scene if you're still here.'

Basically saying, if you do this same mistake one more time, I'm not working while you're here/on the scene. That is perfectly understandable considering that would have been at the minimum three times the DP would have done that same error he was asked not to do.

Let me ask you, how many times would you allow someone to do something that disrupts your job after having already told them 'don't do that'?

Who cares? Everyone has a shitty day, long as his movies stay good don't care.

How many times? Not a whole lot. I almost walked out of a play altogether because the director was constantly belittling me.

But I would do it in a much more calm fashion. When I almost walked out that time I calmly told him with a straight face that if he talked any more shit I'd walk out then and there. Despite the fact that I was pissed off and wanted to strangle him, there was no yelling involved, no cursing, no threats of firing other people or whooping ass, etc. Now, I used to have anger management problems before, took classes for them. So, am I speaking common sense, or do I just possess some calm that's rare in the rest of the world?

Shit day or no, actors shouldn't rip on some crew member just because they know they can vent and not suffer represcussions becasue they're the star.

Listening to the clip though, Bale wasn't just venting because he woke up and realized he has a small penis or something, the guy simply kept ****ing up and directly ****ing with Bale's performance.

Don't know exactly, seems like twice, but it clearly wasn't the first time the DP did it and Bale just freaked out.

If it was the first time the guy ****ed up and Bale went ape-shit, then I'd agree that Bale has some anger issues; it's clear the guy did the exact thing Bale had told him not to do previously. I also don't recall hearing Bale for being a known ******* on the set, unlike some other actors.

Even at the end, Bale was willing to give the guy one more chance, would a raging ******* do that?

38 effings in a space of 3.49.

Clearly Bale was in character; he wanted to terminate that poor bloke 😂

We dont know what happened so you cant judge. For all we know if we were in the same situation we would be pissed as well.

agreed. Wait till they start interviewing people. We will probably have to wait for the movie to come out. Wish they had video of it.

Still the impression I get is Bale overreacted and came off as a prick. But I bet we will hear the full story when the movie comes out. So I cannot really judge him fairly yet. Who knows maybe it was the guys fault entirely

Christian Bale's early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercial and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far much more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

I think you meant "Huey Lewis" in the beginning with your American Psycho quote.

Your just too smart for all of us Robtard.

Incredibly funny but why all the swearing and threats? That just sounded a little bit forced, all the swearing and shouting. Plus he called him a nice guy-before going on to have a go at him some more.

Publicity stunt anyone? Because the prospect of yet another Terminator movie isn't exactly setting the world alight.

I think it was real. Guy sounded so angry his Welsh accent came out.

Don't really care, either way. As long as the movie is good, I'm good.

It was [b]once.[/B]

Yeah your right the audio indicates that it had happened multiple times.

Oh I see so now you moved from once, to not a whole lot. We dont know exactly what happened but from what Bale indicated it happened numerous times and nobody denied it. From what I remember Bale was saying some shit like "Why is so and so doing this, why is so abd so doing that?" indicating that he complained about it multiple times.

Hell Bale even said "You're a nice guy" indicating he didnt want to lose his temper but he just had enough

Again, he got angry and stepped slightly over the line. Why is this such a big deal? He may have some anger issues, then again, he is the star of the movie while some light guy is...well, some light guy.

And again, who cares...since when is the GDF an outlet of The Sun stories?

Heard this yesterday, laughed my ass off. Bale was a bit of a dick, but we all have our moments. Still a great actor.

In all honesty, I really don't know why we care whether bale was in the right or not. I simply find it hilarious that he flew soooooo far off the handle. I was literally dieing laughing at it.

Same ✅

Even if Bale had been completely in the right before he lost it, he made himself sound and probably look like a total prick by allowing himself to get so angry about what seems like such a small issue.

I would have spat in his face if he'd spoken to me like that, **** who he thinks he is. There's absolutely no need to be so over the top when making a point, even if you are justified. Even more so if you're in the right because that simple fact should speak volumes, which means you don't have to 🙂

I just listened to it again and I agree wholeheartedly with me. He sounds like an arrogant, pretentious dick. It's a shame he didn't show some restraint because he was right, he just went about it all the wrong way.

Nobodies pefect the guy had done it multiple times before, and he was willing to forget about it. Also he doesnt have a reputation for doing stuff like that...give the guy a break.

I also agree to an extent.

Well I can understand him going berserk. I´m an artist and if I´m disturbed when painting something I can go REALLY berserk, I mean demolish the room berserk.

This DP (whatever that is) bloke was obviously annoying, plus maybe a personality clash.

I don´t think you should talk to people like that though. Maybe there are other avenues of criticism.

As someone mentioned this is one short, few minute´s of someones life. So you shouldn´t Judge him on it.

Mind you he seems to have lost his English accent, now that is another case, TRAITOR!🙂
