I've talked with celebrities as part of my job in the past. It was special to me at first, but as I continued, it became rote, almost expected. A year and a half after I left that position, I had the fortune of visiting SDCC. There you get to see how much fans appreciate it when their celebrities pay attention to them.
This guy's doing a great thing.
So. You've never once in your life blown up or something seemingly small and regretted something you said?
Born in Wales, but, Obviously is English. Lived in England. Mother is English.

How unannounced was it? Did the victims know he was coming or was it more like he just walked into their rooms and they all of a sudden were looking at Batman?
I don't know if it's accurate or not but that sentence makes perfect sense. Both Welsh and English are subsets of British.

I hope Bale dresses up as Batman and they let him beat the shit out of Holmes while he is in town. Is that bad?

To the Facebookers whining about Bale not being in full costume, you have to remember that legally he can not wear it anymore. Abed is Batman now.

I don't think you know what "British" actually is.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
I mean, if he issued a press release that he was going to show up. Yeah, tacky.
But I talked to a friend who is a doctor at University Hospital, he just showed up solo and asked if he could talk to people.
That's pretty fucking classy.
I dunno. People got hurt going to see him in a movie, so now he's coming to see them. Just seems like a nice thing to do. Maybe not the NICEST thing ever, but still, something about it seems just really nice, y'know?
Yeah. Cool on his part.
Puts him level with Johnny Depp and Keanu Reeves who have done similar awesome things (johnny depp visited great ormand street hospital dressed as jack sparrow of his own accord, and donated £1mil to the childrens hospital).
yes, you are a terrible person

I thought people were just reacting to the idea of him going as Batman, which would have been horrible.
Yeah, because Bale learned all of Batman's fighting moves when he put on the costume.
Also, you should feel bad for posting that.

He's the hero Aurora deserves.

There were a lot of people poo-pooing the idea of him going at all. I think one person said "the last person I want to see after getting shot is fucking Christian Bale". More posts along those lines. I don't know, just struck me as funny because this whole thread is applauding him for doing it.

Cool thing he's doing.

I mean, realistically, I'm sure he had an assistant call and clear it with the hospital. But that seems normal, I'm sure people would hang up on him if he was like "Hi, I'm Christian Bale."
Well, gaf isn't a collective hive mind. If you're going to call specific people out on hypocrisy, do it, but perhaps you could consider the possibility that most people here said nothing of that sort.
That was a bad day on a set. This is someone being a compassionate human being about a SERIOUS incident.

Keanu seems like a very humble guy. Often donating his money to various entities and persons and working for charities out of humbled concern rather than "Oh, I'm rich and its expected of me."

They (myself included) called the Facebook petition to force Bale to show up in full Batman uniform "to show the kids that real heroes exist" incredibly misguided and stupid. It still is.
Either it's possible to find people with varying opinions.
Or this is some massive conspiracy orchestrated by Bale himself.
I vote conspiracy.

Breaks even.
Did people forget that Russel Crowe hit a guy over the head with a fucking phone? Bale simply yelled at a guy. I'll never understand why people think he's an asshole because of that. We've all said shit we didn't really mean when they were seriously pissed off at one point or another in our lives. Even then Bale was pissed because he felt the guy wasn't allowing him to do his job. He even apologized to the guy and made amends. Would you want people holding that against you for the rest of your life?
Some of you really know how to hold a grudge for no reason, its as if Bale personally came to your house and yelled in your face. I think this is pretty damn cool of him to go out of his way to visit the victims.
