Batman vs. Superman movie

Keaton was and still is the modern Batman. I cannot think of one person they could cast that could match the intense stare he had in the good ole\' Bat suit. As for those other wannabe\'s (Kilmer and Clooney)..Well, they are just terrible.

Oh and if good ole\' Christopher Reeve can\'t be Superman, than no one can..

Just my two cents.

"They play off of each other so perfectly," he said. "(Superman) is clear, bright, all that is noble and good, and Batman represents the dark, obsessive and vengeful side. They are two sides of the same coin and that is material for great drama."


It\'s kind of strange that they would present batman as the "dark, obsessive and vengeful" side.  I mean, have you ever seen some of the early batman shows and movies with Adam West?  That batman was presented as a humorous sort of superhero.  For some reason, they decided to evolve him into this twisted, insane "dark knight."  Ah well, maybe dark and obsessive sells better.

the key to being a good batman is being a good bruce wayne fighting scenes can be faked but being dorky neurotic and having a dark side at the same time is what makes batman a young tom hanks or a young alec bladwin would be good but theyre old and fat and hanks wouldnt be belivable only because of other roles he played nick cage but hes a wuss and doesnt know the meaning of "toneing it down"

Oh man I laughed pretty loud when I read that.  Not good to read this stuff while I\'m at work.  

Yeah I read this story in the Hollywood Reporter a few days ago, but I was too busy to post it.  

I think they should make this a full CG film, with CG versions of real actors.  That way they can cast Christopher Reeve (with his consent of course) and a muscled-up Michael Keaton.  They\'d have to get someone else to do Reeve\'s voice though, because doesnt\' he have a pretty severe speech impediment now?

Bob Kane\'s original version of Batman was dark (back when it was called "Detective comics"). Infact , Batman even killed someone in the original comics. He then went towards a more light hearted approach to the comics and eventually went back to the dark obsessive Batman that we know today.
As for the 60\'s show with Adam West, I\'m a huge fan of that series (even have the DVD movie). The show was about camp. It was never meant to be taken serious, Adam West and Burt Ward went through a lot to keep it that way durin\' all the shows different producers / directors.

Oh and I agree a hundred percent JoP. Bruce Wayne is the important side of Batman, but still, you need to have that stare..Ya\' know, that one dark intense stare. Michael Keaton had it, damnit.
