It's Michael Keaton for me

Can't beat that Burton Batmobile and Elfman theme

I mean, Patterson was good but bail is iconic. The dark knight trilogy were so big, it made most movies gritty.

Unpopular opinion: Bale happened to be the Batman of the best Batman movie, his Batman is kinda meh. And I wish Afflect was in better Batman movies.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Now that you call it out, I agree! Bale gets a lot of praise for his ability to morph his body for different roles, but is otherwise only alright as an actor. But he happens to be in many great movies with other iconic figures which really elevates his cachet.

Affleck is pretty good. I also really liked Pattenson's emo sad-Bruce version quite a bit more than I expected to. For me, nothing will ever be as nostalgic and iconic as the Tim/Conroy animated portrayal.

I was a fan of the dark Knight trilogy and thought no one is topping this, but Pattenson nailed it. I honestly like his Batman better now, and hope they continue with it.

Shame they aren't still using him. He makes a good, grizzled Batman that just doesn't play around anymore.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Batfleck definitely has the look and is more comic “accurate”. I’m sure he would’ve killed it in a better film and not directed by Snyder.

Petterson is iconic but he would be nothing without Findus.

Adam West was the best! And it even rhymes.

Hi, I see in the modlog that [email protected] 's post was removed for "violating rule 1," which is, "be civil and nice."

Israel is discriminating non-citizens like every other state while e. g. Arabic citizens have full civil rights. As much as you might hate Israel, this is not Apartheit.

What isn't nice or civil about this post? They shared their opinion, one I consider reasonable, in a way that was inoffensive. Can the mods please elaborate on your mod policy here, are only anti-Israel opinions allowed?

WTH?! Israel is by all metrics an apartheid state. Whether you accept it or not.

That comment is so idiotic and/or bad faith that I totally get removing it. Better to remove it than clog up the comments with a dozen people trying to explain why they're wrong and the OP likely sea lioning them all.

The end line was so unexpected that I had a good laugh. That a truth was snuck in unexpectedly was excellent.

Michael Keaton will always be my Batman

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ben's version of batman was best batman. Not much who was playing him, but how batman acted and handled himself.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Horrible script but great acting. If Affleck was younger I'd want to see him take the mantle properly

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Compromise time: he's a (mostly) retired Batman, and we can have a younger actor as Batman Beyond?

Disregarding acting ability, I don't think Pattinson had the physicality for it; he didn't look big enough to me to be believable. You could really tell the Batman costume had a lot of padding when you saw him as Bruce Wayne. I think he's just too lithe, for the lack of a better descriptor, for the character, you know?
