In the interest of full disclosure, I felt the need to address the rumor concerning the Looking For Group movie. Apparently, there has been a leak coming from the production itself regarding issues we’ve been having with certain actors.
I wanted to take this opportunity to assure you all that it’s been taking care of, and to give you the opportunity to listen and judge for yourself the full tape of what transpired on set:

Dear me... Poor ol' Christian Bale... I hink he needs some help, all this anger & supposed 'beating of the family' it's just not good business. Too many Adrenaline & testosterone filled roles.
He needs to go play a family man in some cheesy romance film somewhere & get the crap kicked out of himself for a change... Props to Dave as always.

According to what I heard on the radio people prepared to make fun of Christian and call him out of order for the recorded outburst changed their mind after hearing the actual story. The lighting guy did not need to be moving but he kept running around the edge of the set messing with the lights while film was rolling and had been doing it all day if not several days in a row. Considering that multi-million dollar movies are on a very tight shooting schedule and delays cost the studio upwards of $30k a day (ridiculous I know but that is what all reports on movie delays agree on) and the delays get the actors in trouble with the studio (not to mention wasting their time and interfering with scheduled arrangements/appointments/life) then he had a right to be upset. Hell I would have been yelling too. The lighting guy was supposed to be an experienced professional and should not have been causing a distraction during a scene.

Huh. I didn't know that, TallicaStew. I suppose his anger is at least somewhat understandable. Still, this clip was extraordinarily funny.

Doucher Christian Bale got his ass to Jail for verbally assaulting his mom and sister, he was held for a few hours then the popo let him out cause he got bail money. This is a true testament to his skills, nothing more and nothing less! Richard was good blowing his face right off.

I have to hand it to you, had me a little worried there when you said there were problems, then I heard bale's rant and all was right with my world. I must ask though why when the audio only lasts for about a minute ands keeps running for another full minute of dead space afterwards.

I think he says "Has anyone seen my fork?" as a reference to his "Fork of Truth" (chapter 1, page 15).
I might be wrong though.

The one thing I have to say, is that, while this was pretty funny, it's important to note that Bale did one thing that most other actors don't have the cohones to do: he manned up and apologized. Admitted he was way out of line, that he acted like a twit, and apologized. He didn't try to blame it on anything else but himself. He didn't do what many other actors do and claim he has"demons" that he needs to sort out. He apologized. I respect that. And I respect him for the fact that he apologized. We all make mistakes, and we all lose our cool. But willing to admit when you are wrong takes a lot. I think that one person who should truly be ashamed here is the sound guy who recorded this needlessly, obviously to try and make a buck off someone's mistake.

Ok so the video is funny. 'Grats and so forth. But I have to disagree with the fallacious claim that the sound guy was "...trying to make a buck..."
On a real set, ie the Terminator set, the sound guy starts recording when the camera op calls rolling and he stops recording 15-30 seconds after the director calls cut. That's what a professional does. Thats how their job works. Without hearing more we have to assume that McG (what kind of retarded name is that for a director anyway?) didn't call cut. So the sound guy kept rolling. Which is his job. He would have kept rolling because otherwise if they had gone back to doing the scene(which is what a professional actor should have done after he had gotten the yelling out of his system. Gone back to his mark and asked for another shot at it) without cutting the camera the sound tape would have been out of sync and he would have gotten his ass kicked up and down for screwing up the days footage.
So now we are left with a tape for that day with Bale's little hissy fit in it. The sound guy hands this over at the end of the day to the runner who takes it to the post department so they can sync rushes for that day. Once he hands over the tapes to the post team they get digitised. Once they are digitised they are archived. All the way through this process there are numerous times for people to hear it and say to themselves "You know what? My buddy XYZ would find this pretty funny." And then they email it on. And then the internet gets hold of it and it makes the rounds.
It may well have been the sound guy who put it up there. But it wasn't needlessly recorded. So that being said I'm not defending whoever put it up. I'm not defending the DoP. He was doing the wrong thing at the wrong time. I'm certainly not defending Bale. But bottom line there were a lot of people doing a lot of things wrong on this particular day on set.

Yeah, I'll give you that, no one knows who leaked it. More than anything my point was that, yes, Bale threw a fit and said a lot of crap, but he also apologized, resolved things that day with the DoP and finished the movie. From the tape it sounds like he also went again after chewing the guy out (or at least that he wanted to go again right away). I just respect the fact that Bale took responsibility for his actions, admitted he was way out of line, and that he shouldn't have acted how he did, something a lot of actors wouldn't do. There are so many other people in Hollywood who instead would either blame it on something else, or say they have "demons" or something, but never take responsibility for what they did. That was more my point than who leaked it. But I still think it never should have made it to the net in the first place, should have been deleted or erased and everyone should have just moved on.

... I think the LFG Movie that was planed done in 2008 now shall be done in 2009... And i mean it... not any director that says that he want to fire Richard

i mean... if he fired Richard... then there wasent any LFG over it

soo... Let's all Stick together and pown that guy down and find a new Director Lol XD hehe ^^

I'm guessing this was made just for fun. It sounds like it's made of parts of the Christian Bale tantrum (or someone who does a good impression of him), with Dave doing some voiceovers for Richard, all pieced together to make a believeable conversation. Dave Mitchell is a voice actor, and may even be doing both voices.
The method is similar to how the song "
Unforgettable" was re-recorded. Natalie Cole sings along with her father Nat King Cole, even though Nat King Cole was already dead when the song was re-recorded.

i vote the 2 randoms stop bitching about the voice actor, theres nothing you can do about it but bitch and drink your hippy tea.

He only pointed it out because of my post.
I wasn't sure if someone had cut out parts of the original Bale rant for this clip or done a very good imitation, because I hadn't heard the original rant at the time I made that post. After listening to Bale's rant on YouTube, yes, it's clear they used parts of the rant rather than an imitation.

Who are you going to call when their is a person being either a dick, stupied or just plan annoying.
Call Richard.
Warning: make sure the person you want Richard to kill is not evil himself or destroying the world. For then Richard might change sides and help the guy destroy the world and then you will be the reason we will all die.

So, I first saw this post at work, whereas my work computers don't even acknowledge that Youtube exists, let alone links streaming from Youtube; so I didn't get to [read: remember] to watch this until now. (Even though it was obvious just from the tagline what it was....)
The weird thing is, the second I heard 'Richard' start talking, my immediate first thought was 'WTF, Hamill?!' Followed closely by, 'No, not quite...but still, creepy.'
No wonder Dave is so popular, he sounds like an eerily upbeat (Or is it downbeat?) Mark Hamill.
