What could be better than repeatedly smacking an A List celebrity about the head? It must be a great laugh! And that’s exactly what Chinese government-back guards did to Christian Bale when they saw his famous bonce.
They clearly couldn’t refuse the opportunity to beat Batman up. You can’t blame them really, can you?
Of course, the goons didn’t catch a bus to Bale’s house, especially to clobber him, rather, Bale was trying to visit a blind lawyer. Can’t get a decent lawyer in Hollywood Christian? What? This is some human rights issue or something?
The lawyer is called Chen Guangcheng and they’ve been illegally confined to their home in eastern Shandong Province. Now you know. See, ol’ Chenny has become something of a cause c?l?bre among China’s rights advocates, and quite a few people have been roughed up by government guards when they tried to break through the cordon around Mr. Chen?s village.
And there’s footage of Bale getting manhandled too! And boy, it’s dramatic as hell! Okay. It isn’t. Furthermore, it poses the question: Why didn’t the wealthy Hollywood actor buy a helicopter and just fly over the cordon?
It seems Bale wanted the drama of it all. You can see him getting a dead arm or something, while he mews:
?Why can I not visit this free man??
Then, they get chased by a grey van. A GREY VAN! It’s just like Star Wars or something!
If you want to know more about Mr Chen, we advise reading a newspaper or a book or something. He’s a very interesting man, not that you care. You may skim read his Wikipedia page or something, right? But you don’t come to us for sensible discourse do you? Okay.
Mr Chen has a massive, massive wang. Better?
