Default Anyone seen/heard of "The Machinist" ? - 06-12-2005, 08:12 PM

Christian Bale is in it, and I just wanted to show you how much dedication he puts into his movies

below are screen shots of him from the movie "American Pyscho"

and now look at the drastic change he went through for his role in "The Machinist"

this is some impressive work I think just for a movie role

you should check it out sometime.. especially if you like his work

Batman Begins should be good

i saw it when it first came out ... the movie looked awesome, but the story was lacking... the reason for his insomnia was good but quite a let down to what they made it out to be ... i felt unsatified at the end.

he did look like a scrawny fuker in that one tho.

I saw it at the store, reading the back where it said "leads to him being involved in a machine accident" put me off.

he probably was. You couldn't pay me enough to get dangerously skinny. I wonder how long it took him to build back up his muscle mass.

I haven't seen the movie yet but it's in my queue with Netflix. I read a little about it and he said he just basically stopped eating, just rice cakes and water... He turned right around and started building his body back up for "Batman Begins". That can't be good for you. Speaking of Christian Bale, anybody seen "Equilibrium"? Pretty decent Sci-Fi flick.

*EDIT* Doh! Guess I shoulda looked up?
