Movies Christian Bale’s History Of Violence

christian_bale-lead.jpgAccording to British media, The Dark Knight’s Christian Bale was arrested today in London by police investigating claims that he assaulted his mother and sister. The 34-year-old actor allegedly broke out some rough stuff in his suite at the Dorchester Hotel on Sunday, the day before the European premiere of his latest Batman blockbuster.

Why would a big star like Bale touch up his own family members? Maybe they told him that George Clooney’s Batman was better, even with the nipple suit? Maybe they asked for two hours of their life back after watching Harsh Times? Whatever the motivations, and whether the allegations are true or not, Bale is definitely not the one to fuck with. Over the course of his 20 year film career, he’s been turned into a lean, mean fighting machine. After the jump, watch the best of Bale’s on-screen ass kicking (girls included).

Movies Edison Chen Unmasked In The Dark Knight

“Did Morgan Freeman really just ask me for Cecilia Cheung’s number??”

He’s cocky, style-obsessed, and loves him some Asian girls'of course Hong Kong star Edison Chen is cool with Complex. In fact, we were down with the actor/singer/streetwear dude way before he became notorious for waving his willy over Hong Kong’s most beautiful starlets on digital film (Google “edison chen scandal”'you won’t be disappointed).

After his sex pics leaked earlier this year, the notorious E.D.I. was (allegedly) chased out of H.K. by the angry gangsters who run the city’s entertainment industry. But not before filming a blink-and-you-miss-it role in The Dark Knight , in the scene in which Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) arrives in China to talk business. Edison’s 2-second role as “LSI VP” is hardly memorable, but it may have been one of the last times he’s rolled comfortably in Hong Kong. In recent weeks he’s been spotted in Boston, and rumor has it that he may be attending NYU. If you see him, give him a pound. Watch a breathless Chinese news clip from Dark Knight’s H.K. set below.

Movies The Dark Knight Shines Brightly

dark_knight_21.jpg
With Batman Begins (2005), director Christopher Nolan saved the comic hero franchise from years of camp and kitsch (and George Clooney's nipple suit). But Ayo! Scott only knows how to keep it all the way real, so let's agree that as refreshing as Nolan's darker take was, the movie had some shit on its shorts. For people who don't own Batman bed sheets, the environmentalist terrorist Ra's al Ghul was a pretty obscure and lame supervillain to kick-start the franchise with. Katie Holmes, who played opposite Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne's childhood friend and love interest Rachel Dawes, had the same chemistry and believability with Bale that she has with her heterosextraterrestrial husband Tom Cruise
