Ok - Christian Bale - I love this dude - if only he played Whineykin in the Prequels. But seriously - give him a chance in the new Batman movies...he does well - but for nothing else than the supporting cast. Morgan Freeman, My Fav. Liam Neeson...Heath Ledger did excellent and hell - Gary Oldman. Trust me you can ignore Bale and have a good time based on the supporting characters.
