Christian Bale *FULL* Unedited Flip Out on Set of Terminator

*CLICK MORE INFO FOR AUDIO TRANSCRIPT*

Christian Bale can be heard going ape-nuts at cinematographer Shane Hurlbut, who appears to have crossed the actor's eyeline during a scene for a second time. Bale also addresses Bruce Franklin, an assistant director and producer on the film who can be heard during the audio. Film execs sent this audiorecording of Bale's outburst to the motion picture's insurance company as protection in the event that Bale walked from the project during production.

In fairness, TMZ wrongly described the incident as "a director of photography accidentally ruined a scene by walking onto the set," when in fact crossing the eye line of an actor is considered pretty unprofessional and amateurish.

That's not to say Bale isn't being a smidge douchey, but here nor there: WE side with Batman on this one.
Also, fuck McG.

Christian Bale: ...KICK YOUR ___ __! I WANT YOU OFF THE ___ SET YOU PRICK! NO DONT JUST BE SORRY. THINK FOR ONE ___ SECOND! THE ____ ARE YOU DOING??? ARE YOU PROFESSIONAL OR NOT?

Hurlbut: Yes. I am.

Bale: Do I ---- walk around... NO! Shut the ___ up, Bruce. NO! NO! DONT SHUT ME UP! Am I going to walk around and rip your ------- lights down, in the middle of a scene? Then why the ---- are you walking right through? Ah-da-da-dah, like this in the background. What the ---- is it with you? What don't you ------- understand? You got any ------- idea about, hey, it's ------- distracting having somebody walking up behind Bryce in the middle of the ------- scene? Give me a ------- answer! What don't you get about it?

Shane Hurlbut: I was looking at the light.

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

Hurlbut: OK.

Bale: ----- sake man, you're amateur. McG, you got ------- something to say to this prick?

'McG': I didn't see it happen.

Bale: Well, somebody should be ------- watching and keeping an eye on him.

McG: Fair enough.

Bale: It's the second time that he doesn't give a ---- about what is going on in front of the camera, all right? I'm trying to ------- do a scene here, and I am going "Why the ---- 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?

Hurlbut: I absolutely apologise. I'm sorry, I did not mean anything by it.

Bale: Stay off the ------- set man. For ----- sake. Alright, let's go again.

McG: Let's just take a minute.

Bale: Let's not take a ------- minute, let's go again.

Bale: I'm going to ------- kick your ------- ass if you don't shut up for a second! All right?

McGay: Christian, Christian. It's cool.

Bale: I'm going to go... Do you want me to ------- go trash your lights? Do you want me to ------- trash 'em? Then why are you trashing my scene?

Hurlbut: I'm not trying to trash your scene.

Bale: You are trashing my scene!

Hurlbut: Christian, I was only...

Bale: You do it one more ------- time and I ain't walking on this set if you're still hired. I'm ------- serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't ------- cut it when you're ------- around like this on set.
