Narrghhhh

I have a gigantic headache and have been away from my desk most of the day--which means, in turn, that I'm hellishly behind on things--so we'll only have a quick essential linkspam today. Because I have a feeling that if I don't post the Christian Bale thing, I'm going to be getting a lot of emails about it.

AUDIO: Christian Bale's Apocalyptic '

I recall that Bale also went off on a reporter on the set of Metroland, causing costar Emily Watson to give him the nickname "Tanty" (for the tantrum he threw).

I sort of wish she'd been there to rib him about this, too.

Holy crap, I just listened to the ranting...if I was on that set and was the DP, I'd have crapped my pants. Twice.

I would have cried. Then I would have GLUED MY FEET IN PLACE to make sure I didn't accidentally wander into a shot EVER AGAIN. Because that shit is traumatizing.

Plus I'm a bit disappointed in him. C'mon Senor Bale, no tacos until you apologize.

... and instantly sued monsieur Bale, perhaps?

Honestly, I don't think I'd have done that (would have been fighting the panic attack to this very moment), but considering how litigation-happy people can be when faced with a rich celebrity, and the sheer insanity of Christian Bale's rage, this is one instance where I think the guy would have been justified in asking whatever the hell he wanted. Holy immaturity, Batman.

Yes...it was fascinating and repellant at the same time. Maybe he's been away from the UK long enough that he's picked up some bad habits? Most of the folks from Britain I've met have been charming low-key...
