What a bitch move. We told you earlier today Christian Bale’s mother and sister filed a complaint against the actor for assault; well, apparently, Batman was booked for verbal assault. Are you kidding me? What mother chargers their own son with verbal assault? I’ve said some unspeakable, heinous things to my mother, and she responded with evil glares and the cold shoulder. That’s the time-tested method, people!

According to TMZ, Bale’s reps confirmed the verbal assault charge. Thank God. For a second there, I thought Batman may have been ruining his own credibility in a Harvey Dent-esque move. Not so. So, everyone just relax, you can go back to enjoying The Dark Knight without feeling guilty about an old woman being pushed over or punched or even poked harshly.

Notice how I used less menacing pictures on this one? That was on purpose.
