Actors paradox. Can't tell

[Pauly D]

Not even a fan but that's a helluva rant tbh. That takes skill

[HI-FI]

:lol
actors and their meltdowns. i wonder if this is from his new film about the 60 Minutes' forgeries, sympathetic to Dan Rather of course.

[Mugen]

hoax tbh.

I kinda get it. You're used to speaking emotionally in the first place for your character, and then you add in the fact that a lot of actors turn in 12-18 hour days.

You do something for 12-18 hours a day, over and over again repeatedly while trying to maintain concentration and be someone else, and see what happens when someone isn't taking you seriously. It kind of makes sense. Actors already have the chops to speak confidently so it's just a matter of being creative with insults. :lol

Could be. Might not be.

possibly. i think it's more that they are treated like prima donnas, usually getting paid the most upfront. Also, when they pull this shit or treat the crew like crap, it's hard to fire them because then you'd have to re-film all their scenes and nobody wants to do that. Anyone else is more replaceable, even directors can be replaced and most people wouldn't know the difference. In most jobs they would get their ass beat for this shit.

dopey the dickhead really pissed him off didn't they

In fairness, most jobs don't have people working 15 hour days doing the same thing over and over and being constantly micromanaged.

Not saying boo hoo actors have it rough, just saying that their level of acute frustration probably ramps up pretty quickly.

And I mean yeah, if you're one of the most recognizable people in the world with billions of dollars behind you, it definitely gives you a certain leeway, but also a certain authority. I'm sure that some of what Don't Dennis Me said here was spot fucking on.

PERIOD

[Thebesteva]

Is it just me or does his rant sound like this scene from The Step Brothers?

I don't think the long hours are as big a deal as if you take pride in your work and and someone is being a distraction. He could be on set 1 hour a day, i guarantee he'd probably react the same way to victim of his aggrivation. It's like hecklers for comedians, or people who make noise in golf. It's just blatant disrespect.

He went off on someone walking through a set or something. The main difference here being that this is Dennis Quaid.

[hater]

doesn't the nerdy looking kid from transformers and indiana jones do this on a daily basis?

Bale has a reputation. My close friend in Hollywood has experienced first hand

Except when Leboof does it no one cares.
