Chrisitian Bale vs Daniel Craig

[BreakABone]

Since everyone is doing the Vs. series. Figured would do Mr. Bale (Dyne's hopeful lover) and Mr. Craig.

Go!

[Dyne]

Bale's a way better actor in every way, but Craig ups the badass quotient a little.

Totally Bale.

[birdman]

Bale. Was there any doubt?

[Fox 6]

Bale.

"Christian Bale would kick you ass."


:lol:

Bale. Never even bothered watching Casino Royale. But Bale... From Empire of the Sun, through Equilibrium, to El Maquinista, he's great.

You should really watch Casino Royale. The movie is amazing and looks fucking beautiful on Blu Ray.

I think you missed Batman in there somewhere.
Just add it in and we will forget this little episode ever happened.

Also as much as I hate to say it, I second Aladuf. Casino Royale is a bad-ass movie. Some awesome action scenes that aren't completely mindless.

[Dyne]

If you liked Casino Royale, I heartily recommend Layer Cake. It's a British Gangster movie, kind of like Snatch, and Craig was hired for Bond because the MGM executives loved it so much.

What about the awesomeness known as Matt Damon? I mean come on...

[Renwood]

Bale was in Little Women. He wins.

[Aladuf]

What about the awesomeness known as Mark Whalberg? I mean come on...

I know right?! :D

Diego has joined the brawl. ;)

And if you want to play that game we could include Mr. Pitt. :p

[Aladuf]

I know! Thank you!

[diego2k3]

Marky Mark? I might need some insight into this nomination ;)

[GameMaster]

I like Christian Bale cause he was good in all the movies. Like that one were he was stuck in Vietnam or some country like that for a few months.

Rescue Dawn? Yeah, that was a great movie. :D

[Pylon_Trooper]

I'm voting Craig on this one. They're both awesome, though.

[Jason1]

I dont have any real preference. Although I will say Robert Downing Jr. sucks.

Good, because if you had said that Robert Downey Jr. sucks then I would have been pissed.

Edit: watch the viral video for Tropic Thunder and you may think differently.

[Renwood]

kiss kiss, bang bang

[Angrist]

Bale was in Little Women. He wins.Hehe. :D My mother and sisters love that movie.











Ok so do I. :mad:

[birdman]

Not having male parts does not justify not making a choice.

[Renwood]

Hehe. :D My mother and sisters love that movie.

Ok so do I. :mad:

Anyone that doesn't admit to their love for such a heart-warming tale is less a man for the denial.

[Perfect Stu]

Craig because I preferred Casino Royale to anything I've seen Bale in.

[birdman]

Okay you non-believers, what movies HAVE you seen Bale in?

[Vampyr]

Bale pretty easily. I would have chosen him for The Prestige alone. Being the best Batman ever doesn't hurt either.

Although I do have to say, Craig is probably the best Bond ever. I just like Batman more than Bond.

[Teuthida]

Bale for American Psycho and The Machinist.

[Bond]

Daniel Craig is the better actor, but Bale has been in the better movies.

Difficult to compare.

[Swan]

Got to go with Bale on this one. American Psycho was just amazing

[Perfect Stu]

Empire of the Sun? Go watch it! Has a kid Bale in it. And a great John Malkovich.

[Seth]

The Fighter
Out of the Furnace

Little Women!

Newsies and Little Women were part of the childhood collection

Daniel Craig has nothing to compare. His films all lack that extra whip.
I've enjoyed his Bond films but that doesn't correspond enough.
Craig-A Kid in King Arthur's Court..

Bale was in Kenneth Branagh's Henry V.

"WESTMORELAND. O that we now had here
But one ten thousand of those men in England
That do no work to-day!

KING. What's he that wishes so?
My cousin, Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin;
If we are mark'd to die, we are enow
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,
Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;
It yearns me not if men my garments wear;
Such outward things dwell not in my desires.
But if it be a sin to covet honour,
I am the most offending soul alive.
No, faith, my coz, wish not a man from England.
God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour
As one man more methinks would share from me
For the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more!
Rather proclaim it, Westmoreland, through my host,
That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made,
And crowns for convoy put into his purse;
We would not die in that man's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
This day is call'd the feast of Crispian.
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when this day is nam'd,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say "To-morrow is Saint Crispian."
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,
And say "These wounds I had on Crispin's day."
Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember, with advantages,
What feats he did that day. Then shall our names,
Familiar in his mouth as household words—
Harry the King, Bedford and Exeter,
Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester—
Be in their flowing cups freshly rememb'red.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."
