For the record. My thoughts on Monsieur Bale.

(Who's record? LOL. My blog's, I guess.)

About that thing about Monsieur Bale's ranting. Wow, delayed. I'm sure no one gives a fuck by now.

I think people, and when I say "people" I mean all of us non-famous folks, who are quick to call the guy "egotistical", "arrogant", "unprofessional", etc etc should put their fists in their mouths and start choking on them. Everybody blows off one time or another, and this just happens to be a famous guy who was unfortunate enough to be recorded at the time. I'm sure there have been worse blowouts in the history of film making.

I don't know much about what is considered professional behavior on a film set but if Bale is being "unprofessional", it seems to me it was because the DP (director of photography) was being "unprofessional" too. Darren Aronofsky thinks so.

On a lighter note, it was funny that McG was pretty much useless during that whole debacle and was reduced to muttering incomprehensibly.

This is where the title "For the record" actually applies: is it just me, or was that sound clip arousing? LOL. With that enunciation, that accent, and all that rage --- I can only nod my head in approval.

No better way to end this post but with a few eye candy shots:

Oops. Wrong one. Hehehe:
