- Resume loaded with box office flops.
- Penchant for being a big ol' sourpuss.

Lawsuit: "Swing Vote" Was MY Piece of Garbage!
In what may be considered the worst career move ever, a screenwriter is actually claiming responsibility for writing the Kevin Costner clunker "Swing Vote" -- and get this, he's now filed a Federal lawsuit claiming a whole mess of people, including Disney, Touchstone, Kelsey Grammer and Costner all ripped his idea!
In the suit, filed today in the U.S. District Court in NY, Bradley Blakeman -- who is also a political commentator and former Bush staffer -- says in Spring 2006 he gave a copy of his script "Go November" "in confidence" to actor Kelsey Grammer. Blakeman says his movie "involves a unique 'down to the wire' presidential election, hinging on swing voters." Imagine his surprise, Blakeman says, when what he calls the "extraordinarily similar" film "Swing Vote" was released last week. Now he's suing for unspecified damages.
Grammer's rep Stan Rosenfield tells TMZ "I am not sure why Kelsey was even named in this suit. He was an actor who signed on to the project AFTER the script was written. As Gertrude Stein once said of Oakland, 'Once you're there, there's no there there.'"

Photog Lives to Die Another Day
The photog who says he suffered a Pierce Brosnan beatdown at a mall in Malibu last October, has had his case dismissed.

Brosnan's peeps tell us the case was voluntarily dismissed -- NOT settled -- and the terms are NOT confidential. We're told Rosen did not receive and will not receive any money, and let the case go after Brosnan agreed not to sue him. Nobody messes with James Bond!
Rosen had claimed the star "punched, hit, struck and attacked" him.

British police sources tell TMZ Christian Bale has been arrested and is still being grilled on allegations of assaulting his mom and sister Sunday, the night before the London premiere of "The Dark Knight."
Bale went to a London police station this morning by appointment and was arrested there.

Bale once told E! Online, "If everyone really knew what a jerk I am in real life, I wouldn't be so adored in the slightest."
