Film star Christian Bale has called an American radio station to apologise for a ridiculous attempt at publicising his latest film, Terminator Coma.
He said 'I acted like an amateur publicist. I couldn't find anyone to be even vaguely interested in Terminator Coma or its release, not even the director and the other actors, so I was reduced to shouting a few childish swear words at a passing tea lady. She ignored me, but my bosses who own papers put it in the news, hoping it would interest people in the movie. It didn't.'
'The thing that disturbs me so much is the depths that ham actors in crappy formula franchise straight-to-video films like me will plunge to get noticed. I'm a very boring person in another very boring Hollywood production, and I wish to ...'
Here's where the press are supposed to describe Terminator Coma in return for Bale's publicity, but the press have seen right through such manipulation, and journalists found writing about Madonna or even Barack Obama more interesting.
But Californian Governor Arnold 'Jahwohl Mein Fuhrer' Schwarzenegger, who starred as the original Terminator, said: 'Christian who? I'll be back. He won't.'
Judgement day is fast approaching for the endless sequel/prequel/post-pre-spinoff-in-a-different-dimensionquel movies.
