bump I have never heard that quote either. Those were some very kind words by Bale. I wonder what project they almost worked on together. Very interesting. I think it'd be cool if Bale & Leo teamed up for a film sometime (it'd be such a missed opportunity by Hollywood for them to both go thru out their acting careers without having ever worked together)

Yeah, I always thought this 'rivalry' was something mostly cooked up by the press and then exacerbated by the more cringeworthy element of both their fan bases.

Their fanbases were both so unbearable at times on the old IMDB message boards. I remember threads would always end up being derailed by them over the dumbest shit and silliest arguments . Definitely don't miss any of that haha.

Well Leo , if it's any consolation , you beat Christian for the role of Jack Dawson in TITANIC Seriously though ,I've never heard anything about them feuding.I blame the media. They always try to pit actors and especially actresses against each other .

I was once dressed as cool as Squall from Final Fantasy VIII, wandering the streets of a rainy Manhattan evening in Hell's Kitchen, and got randomly attacked by 88 Bale stans like that scene from Oldboy.

And I think the gist of it was "DiCaprio could have never played that part like Christian Bale could have!" and the DiCaprio fanatics taking offense and discrediting/hating Christian Bale and his fans.

I never understand this feud. There aré just too different actors. If Di Caprio replaced Bale is a huge misscast AND viceversa.
Di Caprio Is More like Indiana Jones AND Bale as Classic Sherlock Holmes

I'm not sure about the validity of this quite, but the film referred here could be Romeo & Juliet. Bale was gunning hard for the Mercutio role but in the end they went for a black actor for it, I think. As for the rivalry it was cooked up in large part by his former publicist (or someone in a similar capacity) in an inauthentic unofficial biography. Bale broke off all relationship with that person as soon as that happened, and only very recently have I heard that he's finally forgiven that man. Unfortunately, many people still believe the crap in that book.

Yup. But right now he's kinda applying that to his career too and I wish he would change that. Become more proactive again in a good way like he used to in the beginning. He has certainly become quite lazy in his choices...
