It's been confirmed: 35 year old men throw bitch fits too

"No! Don't just be sorry. Think for one fucking second. What the fuck are you DOING ? Are you professional or not?!"

Sounds like the rant of a crazy diva bitch. But in fact, this was part of a three minute tirade Christian Bale threw at the director of photography of the new Terminator movie, Shane Hurlbut. Apparantly, Shane stepped into his line of sight during filming, and Christian completely flips out.

Christian Bale is famous for portraying Batman in the latest 2 Batman films. If Heath was still alive, he probably would have asked him, "why so serious?"

"Am I going to walk around and rip your fucking lights down, in the middle of a scene? Then why the fuck are you walking right through? Ah da da dah, like this in the background. What the fuck is it with you? What don't you fucking understand?"

Poor Shane. It must be very traumatising to have Batman/John Connor/Leader of the Resistance verbally abuse you like a worthless piece of shit. When Christian demanded why he had to walk through the scene, Shane replied: "I was looking at the light." Silly Shane. Doesn't he know psychos can't be reasoned with? You try to talk reason with a nutcase, he'll probably reply with something like:

"Ohhhhh, goooood for you. And how was it? I hope it was fucking good, because it's useless now, isn't it?"

Which, coincidentally, really was what he replied. The drama goes on...

"It's the second time that he doesn't give a fuck about what is going on in front of the camera, alright? I'm trying to fucking do a scene here, and I am going "Why the fuck is Shane walking in there? What is he doing there?" Do you understand my mind is not in the scene if you're doing that?"

It's quite apparant that Christian is mentally unsound. The previous time he came under media scrutiny for his dramatic nature was when he was sued for verbally abusing his mother and sister. I wonder how that went down.

"Fucking hell, mom! I said I don't want any fucking peas in my soup. Are you a professional or what? I'm trying to have a meal here, for fuck's sake!"

He denied the allegations (of course he did, who would admit they talk like that to their mothers), but it's quite obvious now if he really did it or not. The guy who kept the audio recorded on during the rant deserves an oscar, at the very least. I wonder if he's being verbally assaulted by him now.

Shane (the poor silly guy) continues to try and explain, but was rewarded with:

"I'm going to go…Do you want me to fucking go trash your lights? DO YOU WANT ME TO FUCKING TRASH YOURs? Then why are you trashing my scene? You do it one more fucking time and I ain't walking on this set if you're still hired. I'm fucking serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't fucking cut it when you're fuck and fucking around like this on set."

It's alright, kids. Shane didn't lose his job. Batman didn't win this time.

Probably the most amazing thing about all this is how Bale, a welsh, is using an American accent throughout his rant. He's keeping in character even when nuts. So has he really lost sight of who he really is, or is he simply keeping in character and venting the character's anger?

"Fuck" count - 41 times in 3 minutes.

As Sharpay once scoffed: "Entertainers are sooo temperamental." Soooo true.

Listen to Christian lose his mind here:
