Actor Christian Bale, in his Golden Globe award acceptance speech, decided to thank "Satan" in his acknowledgments, apparently for inspiring his portrayal of former vice president Dick Cheney in the movie Vice, as the Hollywood chi-chi crowd cheered.
According to a report in Variety:
Christian Bale had one unconventional figure to thank in his acceptance speech after winning best actor in a comedy or musical for "Vice" at Sunday night's Golden Globes.
"Thank you to Satan for giving me inspiration for playing this role," he said about his character of Dick Cheney in the political satire.
Given that Satan amounts to absolute evil, it's evidence he re-created a cartoon character, not a living, breathing human he might have disagreed with on the political front. After all, wouldn't a normal actor study Cheney to portray Cheney, assuming he wanted to do it credibly? Bale says he preferred the devil. He wasn't interested in being credible. Think I will pass on this movie, given that I now know how the sausage was made. Bale has given us too much information.
It just goes to show the contempt he feels for his audience in his crude, non-understanding, and openly admitted inspiration.
It also shows that he wanted his speech to be political – to take a shot at Cheney and spread the cultural message that Cheney, one of the principled and most popular members of the Bush administration, is a distorted monster.
If Satan was whom he imitated for Cheney, it signals he's shot his creative wad. Whom would he turn to for inspiration in portraying Donald Trump?

Smiley Cyrus is thanking Satan too. Must be a new trend with the crazyass celebs.
MEGA PUKE!
They continue to show everyday Americans, and the world, really how twisted/warped they truly are!!
Just like a hooked drug user they must go farther and farther down their road to degradation to satisfy their addiction. The trip never ends until they are dead. Hollywood for the most part is HOOKED big time.
Let’s see how that will translate into increased ticket sales. Not.
Man, I am getting old. I remember when they used to thank God.
It was bad but not as much as it appears on the surface. He thanked Satan facetiously for helping him learn about Cheney. He was basically calling Cheney demonic. Not much worse than the typical liberal insults, e.g. racist, fascist, sexist.
He has no idea what he just unleashed on himself.
...”They continue to show everyday Americans, and the world, really how twisted/warped they truly are!!”...
Well said.
...”Man, I am getting old. I remember when they used to thank God.”...
My guess would be that Mr. Christian does not care much for God’s standards. Satan, being the God of hatred and malice, seems like a good fit for him.
And my wife wonders why I never go to movies with her anymore.
Yet another dick I will no longer be watching.
Ya’ mean someone watched it? Really?
Isn’t he the actor that was arrested a few years ago for beating up his mother. Why isn’t he still in jail?

Details of the incident here:
(He can shove...his award.)This clown has done nothing for our country. He lives in the lap of luxury while playing Mr. Liberal. Meanwhile, he attacks with vile a man who has spent decades protecting the nation. Christian Bale is just another Hollywood punk. He can shove... https://t.co/N8q9KbWhne— Mark R.

Christian BAAL
Does anyone beside bored trailer-trash celeb groupies watch these awards shows anymore? I don’t even know what the Golden Schlub is supposed to recognize ... except the typical anti-Americanism.
