I've developed an alarming dislike of the actor Christian Bale.
Things started off so well, too.
I thought he was great in EMPIRE OF THE SUN, carrying the film on his 11 year old shoulders.
I didn't mind him in BATMAN BEGINS either, despite his ridiculous 'I'm batman' voice (I'm sure he was told to do that by Nolan and co).
But lately, just the sight of his 'gurning gob' makes me want to punch his face in (I know he wouldn't want to fight ME though, cos I hear he prefers to beat up women).
I know he's picked up a bit of a rep off-set, with various stories emanating from the previously mentioned 'fighting women' spat and his notorious explosion on some sound guy, who looked at him or something, while he was thesping out.
I don't know how much these tales have to do with my current distaste for him, but even seeing him onscreen has become annoying to me.
The trailer for the recent car racing one (I'd never watch a film about motor racing in a million years, so it never, ever had my money anyway) has me flinching in anger every time he utters a line and acts 'dead hard'.
Anyone else hate* him (or ANY other actor, for that matter) for no discernible reason?
*jackfu just reminded me hate might be an extreme term (and he might be a really lovely guy to his friends), but you get my gist, we only have their 'sold to us' persona to go on.

Before this goes off the rails, I'll say that I get you point about celebs whom are just jerks. I don't know that I hate any of them (again, I get your context there), and there are many I genuinely dislike; sometimes my blood boils when I hear how they treat those they deem as inferiors.
Likewise, I don't want to hear their opinions/political views (left or right) on anything when they have a readily-available soapbox from which to preach them - they have as much right to express them, but please, just act in your films. The way so many of them are treated as demi-gods seems to go to their heads.
I've often wondered what would happen, for instance if one found oneself in the situation like with Baldwin attacking some random guy over a parking space, or whatever it was. Would you let the celeb assault you, knowing you'd get some significant $ in a lawsuit settlement, or, if you had the physical skills, and they were the aggressor, would you wipe up the pavement with them? The temptation to just beat the crap outta them would be great, indeed!

I don't know anyone who doesn't like Matt Damon, Thomas.
His stint on the Graham Norton show with Bill Murray and Hugh Bonneville was a classic.

Funny you should bring this up! I just literately heard the video of him going off on the stagehand the other day on YT. I was shocked and disgusted by his behavior. I would have a hard time watching his films again knowing how he treats other people. What a tool.
You and me are done, professionally.
