What would have been great would be if that photography director went over when Bale started talking smack and totally kicked his a**. I mean really just handed it to him. Totally teach him a lesson. What bothers me is that when you listen to this clip Bale talks like he is some kind of bad a**. Well I have news for him, playing one on TV and actually being one are 2 very different things.
He seems like such an arrogant douche. If it was me that he was talking to like that, job or not, he would have to put his money where his mouth is.
Punk a**.
He is probably angry cuz Ledger got all the praise for DK and all he got was ridiculed over the stupid voice he used.

Read the article above and you'll find out the guy he was yelling at was being an unprofessional ****head.
You do realize that in training for Batman begins he learned some Martial arts? Not saying he's Jackie Chan or anything but still he learned some which means I'm pretty certain he could kick the crap out of the guy.
Plus he's not sounding like a bad *** as much as he is someone who's pissed off about someone ruining his work. Lets say you were at work and you were stacking a pile of cans at a supermarket and someone took the bottom one destroying what you had just worked on or your in an office and just typed a report and someone unplugs your pc to hover. Tell me you wouldn't be pissed?
If was at work and had been doing my job and someone ****ed up my work i'd be pissed too.

Yeah. Whatever. That means nothing. That is enough training to get through a scene. He doesn't know what production guy does in his spare time. He may be a MMA guy or something. Look, I have a brown belt and I don't go around talking to people like that.
Oh please. Yeah the whole "I'm a serious actor" thing. He is an actor. Quite possibly the single most unimportant job on the face of the earth. He needs to get over himself and cut the scene again. Sheesh. Such a tool.
Key word there is JOB. Interfering with another persons work is a stupid move. Doesn't matter if they are Actor, Doctor , Cook or just a guy a who hands out leaflets at a themepark dressed as Mickey mouse.
If someone takes pride in their work as he seems to then yes they have EVERY right to kick off when someone ruins what they have done.

Yeah...and Photo guy was doing what again? Oh yeah.....HIS JOB!
It isn't like Photo guy was like "hey, you know what would really screw Bale up? If I walked by. hahahah"
So what, is Bale the only one who gets to do his oh so very important job that he takes so seriously? Could he have probably NOT been a baby and not flipped out on the guy who is on his team and is trying to help make a great movie also?
Your trying to defend the indefensible. Bale is a dick. He takes himself and his worthless job WAY too seriously. He needs to settle down before someone slaps him like the whiny b|tch that he is.

Except his Job is to do it BEFORE they shoot. As the actors are acting and everything it should already be done. So in fact he was doing his job just really really badly.
Your trying to defend to defend someone who ****ed up and got yelled at because of it. I've got no sympathy for him at all. That's what happens at jobs you **** up you get yelled at or fired, simple as.

Actually yes. I got yelled at and swore at my first week at my work when I messed up by a guy who was working same job so he wasn't a boss. I understood and you know what I didn't **** up like that again.
But i'll leave it at that so we don't derail the thread like Dr.Strangefate asked.

Didn't **** any of those *****es
Having not seen the video but reading the articles, I would say Bale was justified. I mean people on the set have said he was always nice and curious and has with good manners brought up the unprofessional lighting issue before and in filming an emotional scene just broke the last straw. He may have over reacted but he's definitely no some crazy hollywood actor who throws temper tantrums when things don't go his way.
As the article mentions the DP has consistently been screwing up his job and has been approach about it before. There's a point where it's apparent he's just not doing his job right and something needs to be done.

Precisely.
He got banned for having a healthy debate? That's harsh don't you think. I mean people have had ALOT worse arguments on here and it wasn't even an argument it was just a discussion/debate. You may not have agreed with his side but that's uncalled for IMO.

I don't think he was having a 'healthy debate'.
Though I don't think he deserved getting banned either.

Okay so I just heard the audio and I laughed my *** off, Bale was so over the top with it. But I still stand by my justification stand, I mean working on a big movie can be stressful specially for a motivated actor like Bale. So I can easily see anybody snap when a guy is messing around while filming. Bale kept his rant about the movie and being professional while filming rather than being: "I see a green M&M I only wanted Brown! RAAAAAHHHH!" Still he did go pretty far, but I don't know the exact circumstances but from what I can tell, it was just a little outburst, I bet by the next day nobody was even thinking about

am i going to get banned for discussing this? I have no interest in terminator film what-so-ever, but i am studying cinema, so the Bale story does interest me. Im gonna take the risk.
5 seconds in a big Hollywood movie scene might take a whole day to film. It might burn as much as 10.000$ a day. Walking into a shot when they are shooting is almost completely unheard of and incredibly unprofessional in a movie like Terminator. Also, you dont interrupt an actor like Michael Bale. You just dont. Film acting is a delicate job. If you distract someone during a close up, anyone can see the acting is off in the final product. The art director ****ed up badly, even though he was only doing his job.
On the other hand; behave like Bale on ANY other job in the world and you get your *** fired right away. Seriously, you wont get away with that anywhere else.
Also, i dont beleve the stories about Bale having a bad day when he snapped. Filming on set nine to five, usually doing over time till ten. Then going to sleep in a hotel and on the set again at nine? For 6 months strait? Hollywood actors have it rough during filming. **** gets ****ing tense. I know i wouldent keep it up.
If this is my last post. It was nice talking to you guys! Love the website!

For the last time, this was a ban only because of infractions... You don't get banned for making your point, you get infracted if one of us feel that your conduct isn't up to snuff. There was a warning, and it continued, and an infraction, and it continued. He'll be back in a week.
thee great one

I've had fits like that at work. I still work there.
