...so, let me get this straight. Christian Bale (married, father, private person, admittedly on a bit of a short fuse) is TOO CREEPY to play the...

Of course, I pray he doesn't, because then I'd have to actually go see this miserable piece of excrescence. I am a big fan of Christian Bale's work overall, and I would feel obligated to see this just to see how he says the world's lamest catch-line and manages not to look contemptuous doing it.

Second thoughts?
Although.... now that I'm thinking about it... imagine, if you will, a Christopher Nolan movie based on this. FIFTY SHADES OF THE DARK KNIGHT.
The sound you hear in the background is my husband beating me to death with our copies of the trilogy on BluRay.
Now all you have to do is imagine him shouting "SWEAR TO ME!" and you're good to go.
