Christian Bale Blames His Mom

Posted on 23 July 2008 by ksouthall

Christian BaleBritain’s Daily Mail reports that Christian Bale was ENRAGED when his mother hurled insults at his wife, Sandra ‘Sibi’ Blazic.

Interesting side note, Sibi was once Winona Ryder’s personal assistant.

A source close to Batman says Bale’s confident that he has done nothing wrong and blames his mother:

“Christian was stressed, but he didn’t lay a finger on anyone. Instead, he flew off the handle and cussed his mother. He just got very loud because his mother was saying some very outrageous things about him, and his wife. Christian’s attitude is that this was his mother’s fault because she became very provocative in an argument they were having,’” the source said, adding: “Things got out of control and he now says he wishes he just left the room.”

Not good!

“Normally Christian would just call a friend and go out to a pub to cool off. But he was literally trapped into this confrontation with his mother and sister because there was an army of fans and paparazzi outside. They’re going to need a “cooling off” period because his mother said some pretty outrageous things to him that really set him off.”

Just a bad situation all around. Things came to a head, Christian has been having a hard time, when things don’t mix, the result can be disastrous.

“He regrets the way she treated him in their argument a lot more than having to talk to police about it. Christian has admitted that something just snapped, but he didn’t threaten anyone with violence.”

Bale is reportedly having marital problems as well. The report goes on to say:

“He can have a terrible temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at people around him. He’s under a lot of pressure right now and simply got incredibly loud with members of his family around. I think his wife is going to be very important to him after all this is over because she does, at the end of the day, know how to calm him down.”

People close to Christian have also said that he has become depressed over the death of close friend and co-star Heath Ledger. The two actors became close and formed a friendship when they both played Bob Dylan in the flick I’m Not There.

The source said, “Without Ledger around, he’s found it more and more difficult to communicate with those around him, especially his family.” Another Bale insider confirms that Ledger’s death was a massive blow for the Welshman: “They had become very close during the making of The Dark Knight and Christian went into virtual hiding for the six weeks after Heath was found dead. He wasn’t returning phone calls and he wasn’t a happy man. It’s foolish to think that he’s been able to completely shake off that grief just as Heath and his work is finally being seen by audiences. He expected to share this moment with his friend, and now he can’t.”

It was also reported that Bale found it hard to shake off the mental strains of Batman, and told an interviewer he was having trouble sleeping. People have been saying that Heath was having the same problems after wrapping Dark Knight, which lead to his accidental overdose.

This makes sense as to why the police took the whole situation so lightly. No further ‘official’ details have been released by authorities, but this does shed some light on this situation.

What do you all think? Was Bale in the wrong??

Ok so this is totally gratuitous (and probably a little tacky) but I don’t care, this man is HOT

Christian Bale Arrested

Posted on 22 July 2008 by Jyl

What happened to the Dark Knight in Shining Armor? Is it only on the big screen that Christian Bale’s superhero persona shines through? His mother and sister probably would say it’s all a farce, because they filed assault charges against him, and the actor was arrested in London.

Christian Bale has been arrested for alleged assault

The actor handed himself over voluntarily, and has since been questioned by the police. On the matter, the London officers have said,

“A 34-year-old man attended a London Police Station on Tuesday by appointment and was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault. He currently remains in custody.”

Are these allegations true, or a publicity stunt from his own family? I personally hope it’s all a big misunderstanding; I would hate to think of the handsome actor of the caped crusader as being violent towards the women in his own family. Besides, that kind of behavior is more befitting “American Psycho” than Batman.

Christian Bale: Arrested for assault

The actor was allowed to attend the “Dark Knight” premiere in London on Monday (for which he was in London), and has been released for now. Tell us you are still the good guy, Christian!

Update!

He is trying to say he’s a good guy! Christian Bale is denying the accusations, and was able to leave the police station without any charges against him.

The Dark Knight Breaks Box Office Records!

Posted on 21 July 2008 by CeCe

The Dark Knight Breaks Box Office Records!

The Dark Knight is such an amazing film that it didn’t just break one box office record. It lived up to it’s colossal reviews and smashed all these records:

1. The record for midnight shows: $18.5 million. It bested the previous midnight record set by Star Wars: Episode III- The Revenge of the Sith, in 2005, which grossed $16.9 million.

2. The record for the highest weekend opening: $155 million (or 155.3, 155.4, or 155.34 million- depending on the source). It shattered the previous record of $151.1 million the opening weekend of Spider-Man 3 in May 2007.

3. The top single-day receipts record: $67.9 million on a record 4,366 screens. This was of course, on opening day (Friday the 18th). Yet again, Spidey’s 2007 record of $59.8 million was smashed.

4. The domestic box office record for the three-day weekend: $250 million. The unprecedented ticket sales beat the previous record weekend tally of $218.4 million, set in early July 2007 when Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest debuted to $135.6 million. Besides The Dark Knight’s revenue, Mamma Mia! debuted with $27.6 million. Even though this record wasn’t entirely The Dark Knight’s doing, I think it is safe to say that it would not have happened without it!

5. The IMAX record: $6.2 million. Many viewers wanted to see the film on the big BIG screen, which led the previous record of $4.7 million set by Spider-Man 3 in 2007.

6. In Ledger’s native Australia, box office records were almost broken. The filmed raked in almost $12 million in its first weekend, which was the biggest opening for a movie this year. But it was about $2 million short of the biggest Australian opening, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers record set in 2002 still remains on top. Damn hobbits…

The Dark Knight Breaks Box Office Records!

So there you have it. FIVE (almost six) BOX OFFICE RECORDS BROKEN!!

I’m happy to say that I helped break records 1-4 this weekend. I was going for the five-piece but all of the IMAX shows were sold out! So I have decided that I am going to see it on IMAX this week.

The Dark Knight Breaks Box Office Records!

Of course, the movie lived up to all the hype and more. I thought it was astonishing, frightening, break-taking, memorable and definitely left me blown away. I think that this short list of adjectives does not even give it justice.

Not only were the performances by all the actors remarkable, but the actual film- the cinematography, the storyline, all the action and effects- were all simply beautiful. And I also love that I was apart of box office history.

If you haven’t seen The Dark Knight yet, what are you waiting for?!

Christian Bale Covers Detals Magazine

Christian Bale Covers Detals Magazine

Christian Bale is on the July issue of Details magazine. In the issue he opens up about being in the Dark Knight, never having a plan B, and always swimming against the current.

Christian reveals that in order to wear the Batman suit he had to meditate before putting it on because he didn’t want claustrophobia to cost him the role. He admits he was terrified the first time he put the iconic black suit on and had to learn to over come his fear. He said:

“I was standing on the back lot where they were creating the suit, and I had a few minutes to myself… just thinking, `This isn’t going to work. I’m claustrophobic, I can’t breathe, I’m getting a headache already, and this is all going to go very badly.’”

”I just said to myself, `Breathe deeply for a few minutes. Try this out. Don’t run around yelling and making an ass of yourself trying to pull the whole thing off.’ I wasn’t going to get it off by myself. It takes three people. I just had flashes of what an as*h*le I would feel like saying, `Well, I wasn’t able to play that character, because I panicked every time I got in the suit.’”

On his Dark Knight co-star Heath Ledger he says:

“He was incredibly intense in his performance but incredibly mellow and laid-back. Certainly there was this great anarchistic streak to it - just getting dirtier than anybody’s envisioned the Joker before. Naturally, (the movie) was something I wanted to share with him - and expected to do so. And I can’t do anything else but hope that it will be an absolutely appropriate celebration of his work.”
