Good stuff. People were throwing the idea around that it'd be cool if he went dressed up... but this is way better and more real. I have to imagine Batman is the last thing most of those people want to see as well.

Fixed!

What made me smile is the fact Bale wasn't representing WB, this was all him. A far cry away from the "Aww fuck you. Are you a professional?" Bale we usually hear about. I hope others follow in his footsteps and visit.

Agreed, I've always heard he's kind of an asshole... but these pictures are pretty genuine. Good for him, definitely boosts my respect for him even more.

I'm not surprised at all that he came out here. It seems a very "him" thing to do. I'm sure he brightened a lot of people's day by doing so.

The cynical side of me wants to say his agent told him it "would be good PR, might make people forget that Terminator business"... but I think in this case it might be genuine.

I suspect it was both.

The picture where he standing and staring at the memorial is really something. Looks very intense and very real, though I guess it would be hard not to be moved by something like that.

I liked Terminator Salvation.

That the wounded man pictured with Bale probably said "Thanks for the autograph. Now where's Anne?".
