Exactly, Justin. And more agreement on Hamill's Joker. Would love to see *him* doing the role live-action, rather than Ledger. Justin Mohareb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is exactly the sort of pointless nerd frippery I expect from the Sciffy channel. Or

Christian Bale. All Day. I was a Michael Keaton purist, but Bale is the best thing to happen to this role in forever. On 12/10/07 8:31 AM, Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Okay, then allow me to toss in more. Who's your favorite Batman? Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

That's Hard, while I thought it was a bizarre casting decision, I ended up really liking Keaton. I'm the biggest Christian Bale fan, but I hate the goofy voice change he does when he has the tights on. I guess its both of them Martin wrote: Okay, then allow me to toss in more. Who's your

Don't feel badly, Tracey. I'm in the same boat. I liked Keaton right off the bat, especially after going through six months of WTF? after learning of the casting. Bale wasn't as much of a shock, since I've always loved his work since Empire of the Sun. Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

well, you can forgive a lot of Batman Begins because it's Bruce just starting out. So, the voice thing isn't that big a deal to me: just means he's trying to find what persona fits him better. Note, for example, that he's not really Batman all the time, either. You get the feeling the true man

Michael Keaton hands down...His perfomance surprised me when I first saw him.. I would suppose the scripts had a lot to do with the other movie Batmen because they were all portrayed by some very competent actors... Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L. Minor) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Totally unfair. They all have advantages. I think that Kilmer Clooney got robbed, becausethey could have done well n the role if they hadn't been handed the really really bad scripts. Hey, here's a question: would you guys like to see a black actor playing Batman? JJ Mohareb On Dec 10, 2007

I agree about Clooney and Kilmer. Both are great actors and were excellent casting choices, but unfortunately they were working with nipple man ( the producer who though batman needed a costume with nipples) I could see a Black actor as batman. Unfortunately, Hollywood would probably cast
