Rank the live action Batmen

(Live action movies, rank the Batmen, give reasoning if you like)


For me

1 -

(Bale, First off i love his voice so i never understood that gripe, i thought he was excellent as a damaged and conflicted Bruce Wayne/Batman, he also nailed all 3 roles perfectly, Batman, Fake Bruce, and Real Bruce)





2-

(Affleck, Visceral and efficient in combat, Arkham games and comic book brought to life. Very decent Bruce Wayne as well, but stole the Movie in Bat v Superman)

3-

(Michael Keaton, He was good in all 3 roles IMO, and the two films he was in were great. Balanced performance just behind the other 2 IMO)

It was close between all 3 for me TBH, i love Bale, but Affleck and Keaton have their own claims to being the best.

What are your rankings?

(Clooney was a total goof, Kilmer wasn't horrific but merely meh IMO)

2 through infinity. Not Adam West
 
Keaton, All 3 roles means Batman, Bruce (Cocky Bruce aka not the real Bruce), and Real Bruce.

Actually I think this is the best Batman

I also respect Keaton and Bale making a point that they don't kill.
 
Keaton perfect at all 3

Batflec, awesome bats but just nutty Wayne. No credit for Drunk billonare playboy, every sherdogger can do it as well if not better.

Bale, decent but actually quite mediocre. Nolens film whats truly awesome, get rid of Bats and replace with a dude in a hoodie and is just as good.
 
Bale just had the best story/script. He wasn't necessarily the best Batman.
 
Uh...Keaton Batman strapped a bomb on a fat carnie and smiled as he exploded. Bale Batman killed Talia.
They didn't blatantly kill like Affleck, i knew some jaded fuck would make a comment like this though.

Keaton says to the thug he won't kill him Bale tells Catwoman no guns, no killing.

Affleck mercilessly murked fools. haha

Batfleck did not murk fools without mercy. The only direct kills you can attribute to him is when he is in the Batwing(The knightmare scene is a vision, he shoots the villians in the warehouse with a gun jamming mechanism, he shoots KGBeasts gas tank), and I take that scene as artistic license since you don't see bodies(much like TDK trash truck getting crunched cabin first, which would kill any passenger). They even stress at the beginning Batman is branding criminals NOT killing them.

"I'm Batman" (smiles like an actor)

Keaton, he is my Batman cutie
I want no other Batman /:<

But the old ass Batman show with Adam West is a guilty pleasure. Shhh don't tell anybody
 
No.1 - Batfleck - Perfect Batman if you ask me, specially considering the version they were going for.

No.2 - Bale - Awesome young version of Batman, up until TDKR. TDKR was a piece of turd.

No.3 - Would be Keaton, although I've meaning to watch his Batman again to refresh myself.
 
Batfleck by whatever the fuck he wants. Jacked, battle-scarred, gives zero fucks about racking up a body count and has mastered Prep Time to the extent he can murk Superman.:cool:
