Anyone seen the Machinist? Christian Bale looks sick in that film!

from the machinist to batman (or is it the other way round?) either way, that can't be healthy!

He went from machinist to batman. He's 6' (184cm) tall and he lost 60lbs (27kg) for the machinist so he was down to 120lbs (54kg) by the end of it. I think his diet consisted mainly of green tea and a couple of apples a day.

Then for batman he went up to over 220lbs (100kg) but they felt he was to bulky (started calling him 'Fatman') so he lost a few pounds for the final filming.

All in all, a pretty sick weightloss/weightgain regime. Probably didn't do his health much good.

xpost from cheese thread:

Any UK guys got any good recommendations for laptops?

Going to Uni next month and need to get a laptop. I want to spend £400-500 and want it to be good for poker (anyone know about playing poker in halls??). Obviously the resolution may not be great at this price, but I may take a monitor with me (advisable?).

Anyone with laptop buying experience or experience in london halls of residence - advice would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty sure you can play poker on all uni networks. I bought a Dell a few months ago for about £900, served me very nicely, even if I do hate Vista. For your price range you can probably get something a bit slower, but still very good as a poker machine, though I would def want a monitor to play on.

Saw the Allman Brothers Band last night - awesome show. Derek and Warren tore it up as always. Ratdog opened which was cool and such, but I was there for the Allmans. I didn't get a lot of my favorites played, but they have sooo much good material that was fine with me.

Anyone not into jammy type rock should really give it a shot. The shows are like a million times better than some random canned act concert where you get basically the same performance night after night.

My seats were so freakin sweet - section 101 row 7. They were expensive but worth it. There was some standing room in the front of the section, so I got to spend most of the show literally adjacent to the stage.
