You guys only have half the story. Bale already nicely and courteously asked the DP to not fiddle with his lights in the middle of a scene. You don't just snap out of nowhere. The DP is in the wrong here and was being completely disrespectful and unprofessional. You just can't do that crap on set. Sure, Bale was over the top but he has grounds for being so annoyed. If they were using film, I'd be surprised if the DP wasn't fired then and there. When you become a distraction to anyone on the set, you don't belong there.

I had read about that actually. Apparently he was walking around during the shot too, or something like that anyway. I guess it doesn't take much to distract these fella's...heh. Maybe poor old CB has the attention span of a 2 year old? Or the concentration of one? "Oh look, candy!" Ha.

The best thing is that this didn't happen last week, it was a while back now, some months at least. What I'd like to know is why it came out now and not back when it actually happened....? Conspiracy theorists will probably say something like "nothing like a bit of advance pre-launch publicity", but I'm sure we'd have to be cycnical to think like that....

Yet another reason for me not to give a shit. It didn't matter enough 6 months ago to even be on the internet...but now it's big news. What was the release date again...?
