The first limey Batman.

**Barkworm** · 09-12-2003, 07:58 AM

I'm not sure if this is really good news...

Peanut · 09-12-2003, 08:32 AM

He looks like he'd be a better Robin.

*Taloniss* · 09-12-2003, 09:45 AM

I think it's well cast. I'm glad we got him and not one of the other ones that were up for the role.

**Karpo_007** · 09-12-2003, 10:56 AM

Beat actor to play Batman, ever. I wonder if WB is finally coming to it's senses.

*That Matt Guy* · 09-12-2003, 10:56 AM

I hope he can hide his British accent pretty well.

Who is Christian Bale?

**Karpo_007** · 09-12-2003, 11:04 AM

Latest movie I have seen from him is Equilibrium, and he can hide the accent. I'm really happy that WB is not going to ruin every DC license they have, Bale is a great actor and the only one that looks like Bruce Wayne.

With Nolan directing, a good Batman movie might not be impossible.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-12-2003, 11:05 AM

Never heard of Equilibrium.

And, who is Nolan?

I guess movies aren't your thing...

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-12-2003, 11:10 AM

I've never seen ANY of the stuff he's in, but he does look the part.

Actually, he looks more like Roger Smith than Bruce Wayne (but a haircut might fix that).

Assuming he can act (never seen him in anything), he could be a good Batman. Probably not as good as Keaton, though.

Nolan seems kind of indie-ish and I do LOVE indie movies

*That Matt Guy* · 09-12-2003, 11:11 AM

Who is Batman going to be fighting in this one? Scarecrow?

**Karpo_007** · 09-12-2003, 11:14 AM

Keaton was a good Batman, but I have no doubt that Bale COULD be better.

I'm not sure if he's fighting Scarecrow, but that is the rumor that is going around.

I prefer animation to live-action. And, I prefer independant film to mainstream. I think the only studio-made live action films I've recently liked are Chicago, the Matrix, and Lord of the Rings. On the other hand, I LOVE all forms of animation, especially anime.

Well, I do also like old movies like Casablanca. Studios USED to make decent live-action movies.

**Karpo_007** · 09-12-2003, 11:22 AM

Memento isn't excatly mainstream... I suggest chekking it out. And Equilibrium is similar to Matrix except it has a plot. Might want to check that out too if you want to know what kind of work the guys have done.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-12-2003, 11:23 AM

I might.
They sound good.

I forgot to mention I'm also a huge fan of Martial Arts movies and Chinese drama movies. (I'm a huge Brigette Lin fan). That sums up my taste in movies.

Back on topic: Who will play Robin?

*That Matt Guy* · 09-12-2003, 11:46 AM

Personally I think it would be better if Robin was left out.

*Voltron* · 09-12-2003, 11:58 AM

He doesn't have the chin. Batman needs the chin or else it just isn't Batman! Keaton 4 ever.
