In the dry cleaners Bateman tells the old lady "I can only get these sheets in Santa Fe".

When Bateman is watching porn whilst talking on the phone, one of the women on the video moans "Oh Cowboy".

:D

Haha, my friends and I thought that was hilarious when we watched the fim together. However, in the novel he mentions that the sheets were from Santa Fe also, so it's more coincidence than actual reference. I wish that had just been CB ad-libbing, though.

It's like a pterodactyl out of a gay Jurassic Park

Christian Bale's character Thomas says "I'm a cowboy" in the movie "Swing Kids".

Yeah, and in the movie 'The Machinist,' one of the characters calls Christian Bale's character 'Cowboy.' Looks like he'll never live Newsies down. ;)

Why would he want to? Heh, Newsies rocks! And Cowboy is a cute nickname, I think. =]

I could be mistaken and I probably am but... wasn't there an interview where the reporter asked Christian if he remembered singing about Santa Fe, after they found out about him filming 3:10 To Yuma there? I dunno, it feels like an old interview I remember. xD

The only problem with that theory is that line is in the novel 'American Psycho' which was published before 'Newsies' was released.

Still, it is pretty funny in light of Bale being in both movies.
