Stephen Colbert Goes Christian Bale on Steve Martin
A lot of fun has been had with the audio of Christian Bale being an asshole on the set of the new Terminator movie. Remixes, soundboards, ringtones, You're the Men Now Dog, they've all been somewhere on the funny spectrum. So, good job, internet. You did what you do. But what you do doesn't involve Steve Martin, and that's why I prefer Stephen Colbert to the internet.
After the jump, Stephen interviews Steve about his new movie Shopgirl III: The Quickening.

I would pay to see one of his movies
[...] 9 – Christian Bale: the Stephen Colbert response – Comedycentral [...]
Being the wise man that you are, no doubt you are aware Jesus Christ said "it is not what goes into your mouth that makes you unclean but what comes out." For I, like St Paul, "am persuaded by the Lord Jesus Christ that no food is unclean in of itself…that everything God created is good and nothing to be rejected if received with thanksgiving." In my fourth year studying at Christian Brothers University (religion/philosophy major), prompted by a vision of Christ, I quickly quit the soccer team, dropped out of school, and quit my job to dedicate my life to this good news. I spend my days on the streets wearing anti-drug war signs and handing out a bit of literature and cartoons I have created to illustrate how grossly unjust it is to arrest a man for merely possessing a plant (a plant that has historically been associated with healing and spirituality no less!). Bottom line, the drug laws do more harm than good. I am promoting a 'smoke-out-a-park-day' April 20th this spring here in Memphis. You say you are a man of truth, than you shall want to hear my message. Have me on your show. I bring a message that is 100% True, and because it is True, it is from God. For the prohibition of plants is unwise, unloving; by default, ungodly. Rest assured–to heal the sick, to set free the captives, to liberate the poor and oppressed, to seek out what was lost (cannabis was used as a sacrament in early Christianity)–the work of Christ continues today in the movement of legalization. Have me on your show please.
"A real professional actor doesn’t go off like an idiot."
Whereas, a real professional anonymous blog commenter does use terms like retard-wannabe-punk-ass-gangsta' beyotch. Thanks for the clarification!
Christian Bale acted like a spoiled, ego maniac who does not deserve to have fame and fortune. What a complete prick!
The rant shows Christian Bale in a bad light, but make no mistake, the DP was screwing up & unapologetic about it. Its too bad the context is somewhat lost in humor.
You're the Men Now Dog is plural.
YTMND is You're The Man Now Dog. Check out their URL sometime. http://ytmnd.com/

Bale is a douche because he acted like a retard-wannabe-punk-ass gangsta' beyotch. His little tirade destroyed the only tiny bit of respect i had for him as a person. A real professional actor doesn't go off like an idiot.
I worked with a Gaffer the other day who knows the DP personally, and says that he deserved every second of the Bale bashing. Supposedly, he's some up-and-coming DP who's so egocentric that he'll do whatever he wants… including adjusting lighting during a scene — an intensely emotional scene — despite lighting being a whole other department on a union show of this size. Bale has been in the industry for years, so there really should be some more backstory, but supposedly this situation between the Egos of the actor and director of photography had been building for days…
I was hoping he'd go on a rampage about even considering the role of Clouseau in his new shitty movies.
The jokes on you Christian is only doing his material for his new role as the Mad Hatter…or hater.
