On Bale's Rampage on T4 Set

I'm sure some of you have heard the audio clip of Chrisitan Bale going apeshit on the Director of Photography during the filming of Terminator 4, if not:

(warning: lots of cussing)

...and here's Bale's response and apology:

There are several points I'd like to make. Firstly, I think his apology is a complete lie and to only save him the negative feedback from the media which is the right move for him. His state of mind (playing John Connor in a tense scene) MAY have played a role at the time, but really, he subconsciously meant every word he said to the DP.

And IMO, Bale has every right to rail on the guy. Granted, we only have <4 minutes just of Bale's rant and don't know the entire story in the clip's context, but this is about professionalism. I don't have experience as an actor, but I have been on a set before and when someone is fucking around, it's a complete pain in the ass.

I'm just pissed to see so many comments regarding Bale as trash, the same people who probably think that all actors are perfect. Surely, many of you may disagree. Yes, he was harsh, but it was likely VERY justified.

Anyways, /rant and inb4 Bale-Rant-Techno-Remix

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You guys Just because fierydiety sides with the DP doesn't mean he's not entitled to an opinion. "Lost in a fit of rage" doesn't begin to explain nor condone Bale's behavior, but Hulbert deserved every fucking word. The people who think otherwise are just plain ignorant, IMO. Game over, /thread and sage for copypasta

There's nowhere I can't reach.
