Once and for all: Who was the best Batman/Bruce Wayne? Rank em!

Christian Bale





Ben Affleck



or

Michael Keaton

 

The answer is:
D) None of the above.

 

You like that skinny little guy with eyebrows painted on his mask?

I will say though that Adam West certainly looked like Bruce Wayne...far more so than Michael fucking Keaton.

 

In that case, Christian Bale

 

And anyway, the poll is incomplete:

 

Sylvester Stallone.

 

When did he play batman?

 

Is there an option for they all suck and batman movies are lame?

 

Clooney looked better than all in the costume. I liked Keaton's Wayne because he played him like what probably a billionaire who dresses as a bat to fight thugs at night might be: a little whacko in the head. Kilmer was the worst Batamn/wayne. Bale's Wayne was too much of a Tony Stark/James Bond for my taste and his Batman croaked voice was damn annoying. Affleck's Batman is an older version that we have only seen briefly in that Snyder awful film. His Bruce Wayne is the closest to the character, though.

 

Keaton and I don't give a shit what anybody says. He was the least forced out of all them, despite not having "the look" of Affleck and Bale.

Affleck is a much better Batman than Bale. Granted, Bale is the best actor of all the guys who have played Batman, but I never thought he was outstanding in the role.

Clooney and Kilmer were both horrible, but Clooney at least looked like he was having fun. Kilmer literally didn't wanna be there, it's well documented that he hated the role and just did it for the big check.

 

Clooney was okay. The film was awful though. I agree about Bale & Kilmer.

 

I agree that Batman is lame. He is a superhero with no superpowers.

 

Who...this guy?

 

Keaton for me.

 

That's why I rank Batman highly. He has to work at it. Comes naturally to other Superheroes who have superpowers.

 

Keaton
Bale
Kilmer
Affleck
Clooney

 

Wait....what?

 

Bale
Affleck
Kilmer
Keaton
Clooney (clooney was a victim of the script and the directing, but he was potentially better than Keaton, no question )

 

Stallone
Affleck
Bale
Keaton
Killmer
Clooney

 

It’s kind of unfair to really rank them because Clooney and Kilmer didn’t have much to work with. At any rate it’s not like it’s some great dramatically deep role so who cares who performed the best.

However the one I like the best is Affleck as I was never a big fan of Bale’s version for some reason.

 

It was his voice. Here is how Batman might have got his voice.
