ahem, fimbo, are you trying to steal my thunder?

PortAndLemon · 22/07/2008 16:20

Guardian and Telegraph have essentially the same story (in less flowery language).

Fimbo · 22/07/2008 16:21

eek - sorry Suzy

suzywong · 22/07/2008 16:29

yeah, now sit on your hands in the corner and face the wall

MrsBates · 22/07/2008 16:29

Have worked with CB before I gave it all up to raise my lovelies. In those days he was significantly lacking in the sense of humour department and very happy to nick all my fags whilst pointing out that really he'd given up. But the new Batman film does look good. Poor old Heath Ledger. Not his best look in this one though.

yeah, do the D in red wax crayon please

oh come ON Mrs Bates, you must have more details than that, is he hot in RL? Is he short? Does he do nails down blackboard mockney accent. does he every mention that he used to live in Bournemouth?

MrsBadger · 22/07/2008 16:33

not since he was interviewed on News 24 last night and went on and on about doing his own stunts

he does look nice but he sounds like a tit sometimes

MrsBates · 22/07/2008 16:44

He was well-spoken in that neutral actor way, quite mumbly too. Not big on smiling at anyone. Think he was a bit taller than the average bloke and had only just started training for American Psycho so not anywhere near as pumped up as he is now. Had to be more vulnerable/youthful for the role he was in. His ego had a kick start though. Strangely he never mentioned Bournemouth. My brother auditioned for EMpire of the Sun and has always been appalled at the success of CB. Ah the wounds of youth.

It was a small film called All the Little Animals. Had John Hurt in it too. Now there's a fella worth having a crush on. Didn't notice any muscles but what a lovely bloke.

Which sister?
One of his sister's was in my class at school & their Mum is lovely

PortAndLemon · 22/07/2008 16:55

Papers claim sister in question is 40 (you needn't tell us whether that puts her in your class at school )

LullyOfShallot · 22/07/2008 17:05

Haha
No definately the wrong sister

I cant face reading the DM article...why did he lash out (supposedly)?

totalmisfit · 22/07/2008 17:05

i don't get Christian Bale.

i think i used to. And then he miraculously turned american over night and that put me off.

I like Brits who retain their britishness in hollywood. Ones that go mid-atlantic annoy me. But he's just gone full on yank for some reason. weird.

LullyOfShallot · 22/07/2008 17:06

He used to have to open all the local school fetes
poor kid I felt sorry for him

expatinscotland · 22/07/2008 17:12

He looked really pissed off last night at the premiere.

Wonder what went wrong.

cornsilk · 22/07/2008 17:33

I want to know what he wears under his bat suit. Big pants or a thong.

southeastastra · 22/07/2008 17:44

hmm though the heath thing was probably on his mind. peaches took an overdose too. weird day all round by the sound of it.

ALMummy · 24/07/2008 08:44

The Sun says: here

Well? Has anyone been to see it yet? How was it? No spoilers please.

cornsilk · 26/07/2008 21:42

So they were asking him for ££££?

ahundredtimes · 26/07/2008 21:46

Yes I have seen it.

ahundredtimes · 26/07/2008 21:46

I don't get the CB thing at all. I don't even think he's good looking.

I am totally the wrong person for a) this thread b) to be the person who has seen Batman.

cornsilk · 26/07/2008 21:48

Well what's it like then?
Is Heath Ledger as good as the hype says?
Any buttock flashes?

ahundredtimes · 26/07/2008 21:52

Right.

Erm.

It's very noisy and there are masses of explosions and Heath Ledger does v. good mad, evil person.

[contained]

cornsilk · 26/07/2008 21:56

So no flashes of CB's bum then.
Might give it a miss.
