I was never a fan of Christian Bale. After hearing that, I'm glad. What a friggin prima donna.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I'm still a fan of the actor, but the last interview I read with him made him seem like a guy I wouldn't like in person.
That clip? I laughed too much. I can't imagine what it must have been like to witness or to be the target of.
I think he needs anger management.
Holy shit. Damn, Christian. Still that mad about "Newsies"?

I really think he needs to forget this multimillion dollar action hero stuff and hang out with his wife and daughter on a beach for about six months where the most stressful thing he has to do is wave a cabana boy over for more piña coladas.
How relaxing would that really be? Didn't he have a huge public blowout with her (and maybe his mother?) sometime recently? Or am I imagining things?
"The Dark Knight" star Christian Bale confronted his mother on Sunday after she allegedly insulted his wife, the U.K.'s Daily Mail reported.
Sources close to the Batman actor, who was arrested on Tuesday on an assault claim, told the Mail that Bale "flew off the handle" at London's Dorchester hotel after Jenny Bale said "some outrageous things."
The Welsh-born actor, 34, was arrested and released on bail without being charged with assault, which he has denied.

The incident apparently comes at a time when his marriage to Sandra "Sibi" Blazic, a former model and makeup artist and the mother of the couple's young daughter, is enduring difficulties, according to the Mail.
"He has stresses in his marriage," the source said. "He can have a terrible temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at people around him."
apparently "assault" in this context refers to people yelling obscenities.
I didn't believe the charges back then, but after listening to the audio of his freak out, I darn well bet he yelled at his mother and sister.
I actually didn't find the Bale freakout that appalling. I mean, he had a temper tantrum and said fucking a lot, which is unprofessional and makes him seem like a git, but it was nothing compared to, for example, the 'Alec Baldwin bitches out his teenage kid' thing.
