Christian Bale as Dick Cheney: Vice – “That Sounds Good” Clip

25 Comments

1. He's literally going to kill himself one day with how he changes his body for these roles, I'm still surprised he didn't die after the Machinist

2. What the hell happened to Christian? That's make-up right?

3. This movie is Hollywood fantasy of what the Bush 43 President was. It's getting critically acclaimed throughout Hollywood but even some of Bush's political opponents, who knew the man and Cheney, are saying it's fantasy and not true history

   Not to say Bush was a great President or anything but those are the facts

4. He looks like George W Push??

5. Plot twist

   He's turning to Bane

6. Adam McKay is clearly inspired by Oliver Stone with this editing style.

7. the only way i can tell that it is christian bale is his mouth

8. The editing here seems…strange. I enjoy the fishing cross-cutting, but the discontinuity in Bale drinking from his glass and the digital zoom on Rockwell are just jarring.

9. Batman really let himself go. And getting his weapons from Hammer Tech now? A new low

10. Continuity issues in this scene are jarring sadly. Mainly how his hands change position at 0:11 and at 1:07 when he's drinking, it doesn't look like he's talking or that scene was shot at a different time and just cut in for some reason.

11. Liberal Hollywood strikes again!

12. The f***?! Christian Bale the Dark Knight actor?!!! No freaken way! That looks nothing like him!

13. This is really bad editing!

14. I've watched this over and over. I am amazed.

15. which one is Christian or is he playing both characters?

16. Regardless of your political views, I think we can all agree Christian Bale is incredible here. He looks exactly like Cheney; it's almost disturbing.

17. 00:37 is there an error in the clip?

18. And hes already back in shape for his next role… dudes a bear

19. I guess they had some leftover old-man makeup and latex from Darkest Hour.

20. chevy chase is that you?

21. Christian bale had 4 heart attacks to prepare for this movie

22. Came for Bale. Stayed for Rockwell. Jesus Christ these actors don't get the recognition they deserve. Just the mannerisms alone is enough to convince you that it really was Cheney and Dubya talking then.

23. this smells like an oscar

24. As much as i am amazed by Bales Transformation and Acting, as usual. But also amazed by Sam Rockwell as Bush… he really captured his looks and mannerism. Two Great actors in Action.

25. More like Buff Cheney
