All I have to say here is, if you stop trying to figure out if that's really Christian Bale for a second and actually listen to the lyrics of this jingle, you will lose your goddamned mind. Hat tip to Kotaku for digging up this gem.

Holy shit. That's awesome. I love the 50's diner shtick, like someone's going to give a damn about the decor in a cereal commercial. Brilliant.
edit: just read his entire wiki... he's in the running to play Solid Snake in the MGS movie?? I think that could fit. After all, his batman voice is pretty much an angry Snake.
Uncovered transcriptof the behind-the-scenes filming of Pac-Man: The Cereal: The Commercial:
Christian Bale (to Pac-Man): KICK YOUR FUCKING ASS!
Pac-Man: Christian, Christian –
Bale: I want you off the fucking set you prick!
Pac-Man: Christian, I'm sorry.
Bale: No, don't just be sorry, think for one fucking second. What the FUCK are you DOING ? Are you a video game icon or not?
Pac-Man: Yes I am.
Bale: Do I fucking 'waka' around and eat up –
Inky: Christian, Christian –
Bale: No, shut the fuck up Inky! Do I want - no! No! Don't shut me up.
Inky: I'm not shutting you up.
Bale: Am I going to waka around and eat up all your fucking power pellets, in the middle of a dance routine? Then why the fuck are you waka-ing right through? *waka-waka-waka*, like this in the background. What the fuck is it with you? What don't you fucking understand?
Pac-Man: (inaudible)
Bale: You got any fucking idea about, hey, it's fucking distracting having somebody waka-ing up behind Blinky in the middle of the fucking dance routine? Give me a fucking answer! What don't you get about it?
Pac-Man: I was looking at the coin slot.
Bale: Ohhhhh, goooood for you. And how was it? I hope it was fucking good, because it's useless now, isn't it?
Pac-Man: Ok.
Bale: Fuck-sake man, you're amateur. Clyde, you got fucking something to say to this prick?
Clyde: I didn't see it happen.
Bale: Well, somebody should be fucking watching and keeping an eye on him.
Clyde: Fair enough.
Bale: It's the second time that he doesn't give a FUCK about what is going on in front of the camera, alright? I'm trying to fucking do a dance routine here, and I am going "Why the fuck is Pac-Man waka-ing in there? What is he doing there?" Do you understand my mind is not in the dance routine if you're doing that?
Pac-Man: I absolutely apologize. I'm sorry, I did not mean anything by it.
Bale: Stay off the fucking set man. For fuck-sake. Alright, let's go again.
Clyde: Let's just take a minute.
Bale: Let's not take a fucking minute, let's go again. And have YOU fucking waka-ing in! Can I have Ms. Pac-Man put this on please.
Inky: Can I have Ms. Pac-Man in wardrobe please? Can I have Ms. Pac-Man in wardrobe?
Bale: You're unbelievable, you're un-fucking-believable. Number of times you're strolling-a-fucking around in the background. I've never had a video game icon behave like this. Ehhh…you don't fucking understand what it's like working with child actors, that's what that is.
Pac-Man: No, that's –
Bale: That's what that is man, I'm telling you. I'm not asking, I'm telling you. You wouldn't have done that otherwise.
Pac-Man: No, what it is, is looking at the coin slot and making sure, that the cabinet, ugh –
Bale: I'M GOING TO FUCKING KICK YOUR FUCKING ASS IF YOU DON'T SHUT UP FOR A SECOND! ALRIGHT?
Baby Pac-Man: Christian, Christian. It's cool.
Bale: I'm going to go…Do you want me to fucking go eat your power pellets? DO YOU WANT ME TO FUCKING EAT YOUR? Then why are you trashing my dance routine?
Pac-Man: I'm not trying to trash your dance routine.
Bale: You are trashing my dance routine!
Pac-Man: Christian, I was only –
Bale: You do it one more fucking time and I ain't waka-ing on this set if you're still hired. I'm fucking serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't fucking cut it when you're bullshitting and fucking around like this on set.
Clyde: Alright, I know, let's, let's — (inaudible) –
Bale: Yeah, you might get it. He doesn't fucking get it.
Clyde: I got it, I know. I get it. I get it. I know.
Bale: You might. He. Does. Not. Get It.
ClydeG: We made good adjustments. For real, honestly. I get it. Just waka for five seconds.
Bale: No, I don't need any fucking waka-ing. He needs to stop waka-ing.
Clyde: I get that –
Bale: I ain't the one waka-ing. Let's get Ms. Pac-Man and put this back on and let's go again. Seriously Pac-Man, you and me, we're fucking done professionally. Fucking ass.
