Why does Christian Bales mouth move like he has a lisp, but he doesn't have a lisp?

I don't understand and I'm pretty sure it's only when he does an American accent. This made all the Nolan batman movies unwatchable for me because I just saw daffy duck under the fucking mask.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it has something to do with him fixing his teeth for American Psycho. Yeah he has a particular way of moving his mouth like its full or something.

I've always assumed those vampire ass canines of his were probably why, at least in part.

Dudes an awesome actor tho

He exaggerates his English accent despite having lived in LA for the past 20 years. Him, Arnold and Mackenzie Dern should form a club.

WTF are you talking about?

He like moves his mouth more than should be necessary when he talks.

Holy shit you're right!

Yeah I've noticed it, but never thought much of it. If that makes his Batman unwatchable then you must have some mouth shape trauma in your background. It's such a good series.

His discolored front teeth always distracted me, what a shitty dentist.

Tom Cruise's teeth alignment can be a distraction too, but like Bale, I like them both as actors, so I try to ignore it.

I've always thought he did have a but if a lisp, tbh

I can almost hear him in that picture

 

[HereticBD]

LOL.

I don't think I've ever heard the "He looks like he has a lisp, but doesn't" critique before.

 

[RetiredSlave]

He has a lisp, he just acts like he doesnt. Skinny fat method bastard.

 

[CyberRubberDuck]

Because I'm not wearing hockey pantffffff.

 

[Drain Bamage]

I never noticed he has a wart on his eye. I wonder if he can see it in his vision all the time lol, little nub always dangling there in view. No wonder he's always flipping out. God damn he looks haggard as fuck tbh. You see how Hollywood really makes people look better.

For Tom it’s genetics but Christian has no excuses, filthy looking teeth but he gets a pass because his acting is so good, one of the few limeys I like
