Mad Hatter

I know it's evil of me to giggle every time I come across reports of how Terminator: Salvation is flopping at the box office, which is probably the reason why I keep looking out for more reports. From the moment I saw Christian Bale in Velvet Goldmine, I despised him. His taking the role of Batman further ruined that character for me, which had already begun a slow downhill journey after Michael Keaton left the role. My love of and need for schadenfreude was spoon fed the hope that his star may be falling when that tape of him losing his temper was released to the news media. I'd like to think that people finding him out for the shit head he truly is, is reason for the poor showing for his latest film at the box office. I hope this is the beginning of his star not just falling out of the heavens, but plunging.

For the life of me, I can't understand why anyone would think the man is handsome, talented, or anything else. I've heard the arguments that I really need to see American Psycho before I pass judgment, but I don't. I got a vibe off him from the moment I saw him. It had nothing to do with his appearance or his "ability" to act. The guy is bad news, that's what I perceive. That dude on the set of Terminator: Salvation would probably agree with me. I'm sure I'd enjoy American Psycho if Christian Bale weren't in it. I have a weakness for serial killers and dragons so, if I'm incapable of enjoying Reign of Fire because I'm too busy hating on Christian Bale, I'm pretty sure the same will go for American Psycho.

So how can I watch The Dark Knight? That's easy. The Joker so far outshines Batman in the movie, it's as if Christian Bale isn't even in it. And, now, I only watch the Joker scenes anyway, most of which have nary a hint of Batman in them. Plus I get to see Bale as Batman get his ass kicked a couple of times, so that heartened me quite a bit. If there were more movies made where Christian Bale receives a serious beat-down, I may watch more Bale movies.

And, to end cryptically just for fun, here's hoping FollowFriday means what I think it does. If it does, it's gonna be a long four days. Great Goddess, grant me patience NOW.

so,let me get this straight...you hate/dislike Bale?Just because you saw Velvet Goldmine?
You see,I haven't watched this movie yet,but I think is the one that he kissed Ewan McGregor or something like that.
Anyways,could you tell me why you didn't liked the movie?and why you dislike Bale?

I love him.Since BB (Batman Begins) and TDK,and I've been watching his other movies (The Prestige,American Psycho,etc etc) and I think he's awesome.

Anyway,everyone have their own opinions,and i'm not here to change yours.Firstly because it's impossible,secondly because if you like Bale or not,that's none of my business.

Oh,I wonder what FollowFriday means.I'm hoping that it is *FINALLY* his new video.It's been sooo long since he updated.WE NEED MOAR VIDS,RITE NAAAAO.


(p.s: Bale icon for 3 reasons:
1 - I like him
2 - I like his Bale Out
3 - I feel like baleing out LOL sorry.We're still friends,the only thing is that I'm a srz bizness Bale Fan and i don't know,i feel doing it.)

No, I've hated him from the moment I first saw him, which just happened to be in 'Velvet Goldmine.' It didn't have anything to do with his character or the movie, which I enjoyed as much as I could, what with being too busy hatin' on him. Eddie Izzard is in the movie, which helps save it in part. And I do love me some Ewan MacGregor (even if he is a Jedi). It's just a vibe I got from Bale from the moment I saw him, and that vibe is just as strong now as it was then. I've never seen 'Batman Begins' and I don't intend to see it. No desire whatsoever.

If the man came in parts, you'd be welcome to my part, 'cos I want no part of him.

::looks at calendar and checks clock:: Is it Friday yet? How about now? And now? Damn.

I understand.It happened with me with a lot of actors/actresses XD but anyway...do you know that I've watched TDK before Begins?Yep,because of the Joker/Heath.Before TDK/Begins,I never even knew who Christian Bale was.Another good reason for me to watch Begins is Cillian Murphy,but that's another story XD

A good way to see the week pass by is watching TDK.At least that's what I'm going to do,watch tdk everyday.Specially the Joker scenes,of course.That's how I relax LOL

Who knew gunpowder, dynamite, and gasoline could be so relaxing?
