come on Plexa I know that ban finger is itchingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!

But seriously all he did was curse the guy out. It's not a big deal. I'm surprised no one is calling the DP a moron for trying to sue for verbal abuse because someone YELLED at him.

i agree that the latter part of my post was inappropriate but i don't think i used a profanity once until that dork called me a troll. i think i made a reasonable argument so for him to interject himself and call me a troll is uncalled for.

The law doesn't prohibit against threats of violence? It's called assault. He could go to jail, but the man is being generous by only suing him for verbal abuse [or some shit].
Actually, in this case it would be battery, and the guy would have a decent claim if he wasn't so calm in the recording.
The number you have dialed is out of porkchops.

It could be excusable. It seems to me being in the middle of an emotional scene, if that's what it was, is the perfect time to have a mental breakdown. He clearly had some things going on in his life that could potentially have been serious enough to him personally, to lead to a mental breakdown. Under a certain amount of stress the human mind just cracks, including yours, some minds more easily than others, and people temporarilly lose their minds. I think the fact that it's a product of stress, and that it could happen to anybody, make a mental breakdown sympathizable. If it's more due to circumstance than due to general attitude problems then it is even less the person's fault, and thus more sympathizable. If the margin by which it is more due to circumstance is large enough, it could make this outburst excusable. However big you think that margin would have to be, the circumstances, from what you know of them, have the potential to be terrible enough.

I think there's something wrong with this argument, but i forget.

Holy shit, Kinski completely loses it! Bale went easy on the light's guy, compared to Kinski. The commentator in the beginning says, that the Indios on the set were totally terrified, because they were not used to such outbreaks, hahaha!

Bale apologizes for on-set meltdown

Batman star Christian Bale apologized Friday for his expletive-laden tantrum during filming of a new "Terminator" film, saying he was "out of order beyond belief."

Bale's meltdown became an Internet sensation this week after a recording of his rant at a cinematographer found its way on to the web.

The 35-year-old old British-born actor called a Los Angeles morning show on KROQ radio to apologize for the outburst.

"It has been a miserable week for me," Bale told the show's hosts. "I know I have a potty mouth but I was way out of order.

"The thing that I want to stress is that I have no confusion whatsoever. I was out of order beyond belief. I acted like a punk.

"I regret that and there is nobody that has heard that tape that is hit harder by it than me. I make no excuses for it, it is inexcusable, and I hope that is absolutely clear."

Bale also said he hoped the fallout from his tirade would not deter people from watching "Terminator Salvation" when it hits screens later this year.

"I'm asking people, please do not allow my one-time lapse in judgment, my incredibly embarrassing meltdown, to overshadow this movie and to have all of those people's hard work [from the film's cast and crew] go to waste."

In the audio clip of the incident, which took place on location in New Mexico last July, Bale can be heard lambasting cinematographer Shane Hurlbut for apparently wandering into the actor's line of vision.

Bale repeatedly calls for Hurlbut to be kicked off the set and threatens to tear down the cinematographer's lighting rig.

Bale's rant is the latest incident involving the actor, who is renowned for his fiercely committed approach to acting.

Bale was arrested in London last year for allegedly attacking his mother and sister. Police later said the actor would face no charges because of insufficient evidence.

Sounds like the typical welsh temper to me. He just happens to be famous and the media is probably withholding what went on the whole day.

The dpguy's last name is hurlbut.

Christian Bale has publicly apologized and clearly has other things on his mind.
Enough said for me.

Pretty sick that there hierarchy is so intense a guy whos a director of photography, not even a low level guy like a grip or best boy or something, has to take that kind of shit from an actor. Those top level actors get treated like kings, no wonder they act like spoiled brats.

I don't know why but I find this pretty hilarious. He must have been so mad and still quite managed to speak straight with a sense and without any slips. Totally like taken out from a movie.

But I really don't understand what's the big deal with it? This happens all the time there and noone gives a shit about it, actor-director fighting, director-producent fighting, that's Hollywood man.

Hey who is this Klaus Kinski character? Is that Werner Herzog commentating in that video?

Can someone give me a brief translation? Couldn't find one with english translation..

Interesting quotes I found from Kinski:
"So I sell myself, for the highest price. Exactly like a prostitute. There is no difference."

"I'd have been better than Adolf Hitler. I could've delivered his speeches a lot better. That's for certain."

"One should judge a man mainly from his depravities. Virtues can be faked. Depravities are real."

its me, tasteless,s roomate LOL!
