"The DP on TERMINATOR SALVATION, Shane Hurlbut, is a apparently a light tweaker. He's a fairly young DP and likes to fiddle with his lights on set during action, which is a big "NO NO" on most productions unless worked out in advance with performers. But apparently Shane was a pretty unrepentant light tweaker.

The scene in question, was a very emotional and tough scene between Christian Bale and Bryce Howard. A scene that required soul bearing and a deep level of immersive concentration. The sort of scene where everyone on set knows not to get in anyone's eye lines, and definitely not to move lights around while FILMING. You lock that shit down before the scene starts.

Bale had indeed warned the DP on multiple occasions about messing with lights while the cameras were rolling, and Bale was in the midst of a painful scene with Bryce, what was described to me as being the emotional center of the film and his character for the film.

Now, the reason I know all of this is because the person that was there, felt that it should be made perfectly clear that Christian Bale was the utmost gentleman and cool guy on set. And the DP really was doing something that professional DPs with experience just don't do. Not during a performance. "

So it seems he was tweaking(?) the lights, not walking through the scene.

>> Someone needs to give him a big glass of shut the fuck up.

Funny thing about that statement is there have been reports from lots of other people who've worked with that DP in the past and they all say that he is a total filet o' prick on a scale only comparable to Christian Bale. They say he'd go around set screaming at people and belittling everyone around him and that he has needed a tall glass of STFU for years and they're elated to learn he's finally received it.

WGACA.

A sound board where you can pick out individual sentences Christian Bale used while cursing out his cinematographer on the set of Terminator Salvation.

Have you guys seen this?

Christian Bale as Patrick BATeMAN <---wtf? "You are a fucking ugly bitch I want to stab to
death and then play around with your blood."
-American Psycho
See it.

Christian Bale is a prick, so what? I like him as an actor, I don't care if he's a prick or not, don't care at all about his private life. If he's in a good movie I'll probably watch it, that's it. Ever since that overhyped Batman movie he's gotten waaaaay too much attention.

But yes, he's a giant prick in this audio clip, no doubt. Nothing will get you out of character like screaming at the DP for 5 minutes. Seriously, everybody makes mistakes, Bale is the one who's unprofessional. Doesn't make the slightest difference to me tho, I never assumed he was a nice guy anyways.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Agreed he sounds like a complete prick and a bully. this has basically ruined the movie for me - as I'll be hearing this soundtrack each time I hear Bale speak.

>> ^deputydog:
bale's got issues. the guy's a bully.

^ like who's the better batman, Michael Keaton or Christian Bale?
(if you even say George Clooney, i will stab you in the jaw!)

If something happened to Hugh Jackman I bet they'd fly in Christian Bale before you could say "bad idea".

I still can't get past Christian Bale as anything other than a safe pair of hands in these action films. Increasingly he seems a strange choice to play Batman and this film might be stretching the limits of the Terminator story. I suspect that if you take a composite of all the actors who have played Connor you probably end up with Bale anyway.
That big robot at the end looked ridiculous. I just don't think advanced AI would bother with something like that.

Christian Bale as John Connor will probably get me to go see this.

Terminator motorcycles and a Mecha-Godzillanator might make me regret it.

It all comes down to whether they find a way to make the post-apocalypse war against the machines interestingly fresh, or if they fall onto sci-fi cliches (we're gonna make a virus! or we've got to destroy the central brain/power generator).

I was waiting for Christian Bale to dive down and sucker punch one of the rays, with this music.

They can't use bladed weapons.

No. Directed by Win Wenders before he really lost his mind.

I think you mean Kurt Wimmer. He directed UltraViolet too.
