Okay, some context.

This recording of Bale's outburst, while a bit over the top, isn't totally out of place. The Director of Photography was walking around the set, moving and adjusting the lights, while a scene was being filmed - as in, the camera was rolling at the time. This is a BIG no-no on set. And he had done it several times, and had been asked to stop. This particular scene was reportedly a very emotional scene between Bale and Bryce Dallas Howard, so emotions were already running high before the dude screwed up the scene.

So, while Bale certainly over-reacted, he did have a reason, in context.

As for the thing with his mother, she had him arrested, yes. But the backstory is that his mother and sister both have long-term drug habits, and Bale has been estranged from them both for many, many years. They essentially ambushed him at his Hotel room and demanded he give them money, now that he's successfull. He told them to get lost, so Mom called the cops. As soon as the cops looked up her record, they released him, and tossed the charges.

So? People love tearing down celebs. Makes 'em feel better about their little lives.

Funny that this is the only time you've managed to mention the media, without useing the word "whores".

You make an excellent point, as for the whores, entertainment whores are worse then MSM whores. Also the entertainment whores have better hair.

Jackie Chan would have kicked Bale's sorry white ass, steroids aside. I heard he socked mom, he also went ballistic on the T4 set.

As for a guy in the background, that can be deleted digitally. It's not a big issue. He wanted the guy fired? Changing your director of photography, that's going to cost a lot more and look a lot more awkward than reshooting or just deleting him frame by frame.

Quote:

From wikipedia:
...it became necessary for Bale to bulk up to match the powerful physique of Batman. He was given a deadline of six months to do this. Bale recalled it as far from a simple accomplishment: “…when it actually came to building muscle, I was useless. I couldn’t do one push up the first day. All of the muscles were gone, so I had a real tough time rebuilding all of that.”[24] With the help of a personal trainer, Bale succeeded in meeting the deadline, gaining a total of 100lbs (46kg) in six months. He went from about 130lbs to 230lbs.[30] He then discovered that he had actually gained more weight than the director desired, and dropped his weight to 190lbs by the time filming began.[31]



So, those sorts of radical weight changes that quickly? massive doses. I'd say steroids and probably opiates for the weight loss. That sort of thing is very hard on your heart too.

Filmmakers shouldn't f^&k with actors physically. If they're not what you're looking for, choose someone else. That goes for Joss, too.

I'm afraid this ends a shooting star career. The number one thing on any filmmaker's mind when casting is "How easy will this person be to work with?" In fact, any employer's mind.

No, I meant if the same thing happened to Jackie on set, and it has, you see in outtakes of Rush Hour 2, a cell phone goes off, and Jackie turns it into a (very) funny.
Bale has no sense of humour, clearly.

Story; You may be right. I heard on the radio today that Bale invited his Mother and Sister to his Hotel in London when The Dark Knight premiered in town. From what I heard that family is pretty scerwed up, BUT (big but) is this the first time he's blown up on the set? I do'nt know but this gives him a bad rep with future film crews and actors, do'nt forget Isiah Washington yelling FAGGOT on the set of "Gray's Anatomy".

In doing more research, I find that Bale is an uber-professional, that is, he's there, he's ready, and by God you'd better be too. He takes it all as serious as a heart attack. So basically, if you work with him, you'd better not f**k around, or you WILL hear about it.
Can't fault the man for his level of caring.

I'm altering my diagnosis to steroids and amphetamines. Opiates radically deplete muscle mass, he'd want to lose weight but keep the energy, he'd go with amphetamines. I think Hollywood does a lot of damage by not obeying the natural order.

Honestly, there's no way to have that muscle mass change, esp. in a man his age, in that amount of time, in either direction.
