DJG / Message to Actor Christian Bale: YOU ARE NOT IMPORTANT...and certainly not PROFESSIONAL.

"The Dark Knight" didn't do it for me, but I was hoping for a solid addition to the "Terminator" family. Not now. As if his recent acting wasn't bad enough, I officially have lost all wish to support new Christian Bale work. I had heard that he had some a-hole in him, but wow, he is now the official definition of a complete a-hole. I tend to either become saddened or lose respect for "artists" when they start to play God with their gifts. He's officially lost my respect and support. I tend to have a fairly long fuse and a hefty grace period...and especially in the entertainment industry and Hollywood...I look beyond personal life and actions beyond the silver screen lining and focus on the work and enjoyment in front of me. I understand the idea of "having a bad day at the office", but this is completely uncalled for, unprofessional and simply not a way to tattoo yourself to this Earth. I realize that there were words said on both sides, but I feel the lower totem pole was simply trying to explain his position and not be an a-hole about it...unlike the golden boy Bale. And besides, Bale stopped acting professionally for me after "American Psycho" and "The Machinist", so I don't feel I'm missing out on any so-called "art". Thanks, but no thanks. Hollywood, critics and film fans, I hope this makes you think twice about supporting such garbage. ARNOLD, please come back.
