Not his fault. The guy was ****ing up the scene, he deserves that.

Also, love that he keeps his American accent for the rant. That's REALLY keeping in character.

Youtube is a cesspool. Most of those comments are so damn stupid.

Getting distracted sucks, man. When I did my acting class, all those stupid little movements nearly made me lose my focus. Also doesn't help that my eyes pick up any movement. The only way I can't pick up movement is to blur my eyes and that looks freaky to other people.

So, yeah, Bale is a great actor. It was only words, people. Don't be wusses.

He shouted at the guy for two minutes straight. There was no need for that when a simple "dude, could you knock that off please" would suffice.

I think what surprised me the most was how the staff enabled this little power-trip. Why are actors treated as gods within the industry? I don't understand it.

That wasn't the first time the guy messed up Bale's scenes though. Bale was nice to him the first times but the guy still kept doing it. The guy just wasn't good at his job. Bale was totally in the right for it.

Don't we all have days like this at work? My co-workers don't get away this easily, I continue until at the very least they start crying, but usually they go home and don't return for a few days (in a few rare, precious cases, they don't come back at all).

The jump from "He shouted at the guy for two minutes straight" to "Why are actors treated as gods within the industry? I don't understand it." confuses me because, as I've posted all over the internet regarding this, the fact that he raged so hardcore and irrationally should imply that there was something extraordinary about it all and he just snapped—just like how everyone has moments when stuff that would normally just bother them makes them livid and they yell and scream in a tirade that would sound ridiculous and asinine if they ever listened back to it with a level head.

You hear one instance and assume that Bale is always like this and is megalomaniacal to the point of self-deifying, when really the only sound conclusion is that he has a bad temper sometimes.

He should probably learn not to mess up a scene. It seems he was doing it over and over again too. I can definitely understand Bale's frustration

Harry from AICN will defend any celebrity. He's a lapdog for them all and even defended the film "Lady in the Water" because he got to talk with Shyamalan. Watch "Lady in the Water", and then read Harry's review. His opinion is null.

I yell at people way worse than that where I work, and I make next to nothing in a retail store. I would probably kill that guy if he was wasting a bunch of shots in a million dollar movie. Why is everyone so up in arms over this? Who likes getting their **** ****ed up?

Hahaha, perfect.

I've some more reading about this and it does seem like the outburst was pretty justified (this apparently happened a few months after Heath Ledger's death so Bale was probably very on-edge), although I still think he overdid it.

Dang Big Bear, you really scare people away? Remember me to never provoke you.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't yell at people for 2 minutes straight. Meh, each has his/her outlet, I guess.
