Christian Bale Arrested!
 

WTF?!

Hmm...too much to drink??

I wonder why he assaulted them.

I'd take that first bit by E! with a grain of salt.

Assault can mean a lot of things. Verbal assault is apparently enough to go to the cops for these days, tho I don't think a mom and sister are likely to do such a thing. Doesn't really come as a big surprise tho. He might be a cool actor, but you can tell he is an absolute jerk. In fact it is probably for that reason that he's so good at playing asshole-Bruce Wayne. He just plays himself.

Where are you getting that from?

The news today said he just cussed his mom out for dissing his wife. Cool.

This is why I don't assume things about people without knowing the whole situation. Why? Because doing so makes me a bigger ass than the supposed ass in question.

His mom is a clown?! :o

Ironic....isn't it? :P

So basically, she demanded £100,000 from him, he refused, she reported him to the authorities for that.

Family values, anyone?

Apparently you don't read things either because the very first thing I said was that it probably was merely verbal assault.

On topic:
And for good measure, a quote by the man himself:
Now if this man himself admits he is a jerk and a narcissist in his interviews, why get on my case if I happen to agree he comes off as one?

While I love him as an actor, he's been great in many roles. He does appear to have a snobbish, jerk attitude in interviews. He just has this mood around him that says hey I can be an asshole. But I don't know him personally, so what do I know

^It's probably why I avoid interviews with actors now. Kind of spoils the images or perception I have of the character they portrayed. I will sometimes watch behind the scenes, but mostly, just watch the movie now. Unless it was a movie or series I actually dug, like LOTR, I dont watch too many behind the scenes.

However, if you like a laugh, behind the scenes of Jackass movie #1 is quite hilarious!

I wonder if NBC could talk Christian Bale in doing a skit on Saturday Night Live, make a funny thing out of this ordeal, or is he simply not comedy material?

Weren't you the one who said a couple days ago that she can tell a fiction from reality when it comes to movies?

I did. What does this have to do with me not liking to watch interviews and all that bull sh*t? Just because I think interviews sometimes ruins my take on particule movies, has nothing to do with my perception on reality.

But it sounds you can't fully separate a fictional character from a person portraying it.

This. It's a good movie and an even better book.

Well, to be honest, I cant. When I see the Joker, I still see Heath Ledger. The only actors that I can think of that have me surprised that it's them is Gary Oldman and Billy Bob Thorton.

What I meant that I can tell the difference between reality and fiction, is that I know a movie is fake and can find things laughable and tend to not get caught up in the film like alot of people do. But when I am watching a documentary or an exact biography, it brings out a more respected emotion in me.

I can laugh at Heath's joker throughout the whole film because I know it's fake.

I actually felt sick when I watched Dahmer the movie.

It gets a little skewed for me when watching the Hannibal movies, Psycho and Texas Chainsaw, because I do know that Hanibal Lecter, Leatherface and Norman Bates were all based on the real life whack job Ed Gein. But those characters were loosely based on one guy, but the incidents those movies covered had nothing to do with Ed Gein's actual story. They are still works of fiction, so I can easily brush them off.

But if I watch the actual story on Ed Gein, it's a whole different ball game.

Even though, it's not so much Ed Gein that really disturbs me, though he is bad enough, but the police who auctioned off the infamous chair and the sicko who actually bought it are more disturbing.

Silence of the Lambs I didn't take serious, but Citizen X I did. Am I making things more clear for you?

Oh, that's some of that proverbial wit I've heard so much about, right?
