Gary Coleman?

Seriously though, nice article. Bale has the best combination - talent and hotness.

My sig says it all. I knew that the minute I saw Newsies on my 13th birthday. Went back and watched Empire of the Sun and Treasure Island the next week.

"Skeet" Ulrich?

Ulrich is one of the most underated actors out there at the moment, as well as Sarsgaard.
I dont think its really appropriate to say Bale is underated anymore after BB. Tobey maguire, Gyllenhaal and Viggo Mortensen are more examples of actors that have been over looked but came into their own after their first big budget movie. I think thats just what happens when you dont look like Dicaprio.

alls you'll get from me is a

i'm too busy printing out this article and pasting it to my "Bale Wall" which is covered with Christians pictures, articles, hair clippings and skin scrapings.:heart:

bwahaha... Christian Bale does rule and he is criminally UN rated. He doesn't get the attention he deserves. Whatever... he belongs to the batfans and that's all that matters

 

[Two-Face]

Well said Babs.

 

[Mee]

Good read.

It´s not because I´m a Batman fan and I think Bale nails it like it´s never been nailed before, but think about it... He constantly takes wild risks - American Psycho, The Machinist, Harsh Times... He does unbelievable things to fit a role. He can play good guys and bad guys. he can be totally still and stoic and also emote to gut-wrenching levels. He has the looks and physique to play action heroes. Chicks find him sexy as hell, without coming off as a pretty boy.

It's because Bale doesn't want the attention.

"I don't want to know about the lives of other actors and I don't want people to know too much about me. If we don't know about the private lives of other actors, that leaves us as clean slates when it comes to playing characters. That's the point, they can create these other characters and I can believe them. I think if you're a good enough actor, that's the way to longevity in the film business. Keep everybody guessing." - Christian Bale

For me.....I can't get pasted Sam Neill (DEFINITELY), Richard Attenborough, and Jeff Goldblum too. The Jurassic Park era was great and I wish that they would hurry up and get movie with the 4th film. I know that the 3rd film wasnt as good as the first 2 were, but overall Jurassic Park series is my favorite. I love the comics alot and I like Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart for my favorite so far in the X-Men Era.

Which also cinches it for male fans as well. Pretty boy actors get hate just for that so Bale has both sides covered without stepping on either. Thats just not the usual with the male actors out there today considering the new effeminate fad.

You nailed it!

Heh, there was actually a little Christian profile in one of the TV guide supplements this week and guess what was labelled his finest hour? That and the adorable pic made my whole week. /fangirl moment

I think Christian Bale is totally rated. Practically everyone I know loves him.
