Who The Best Batman Is, According To One Comic-Con Panel
Cinebland ^ | 7/20/17 | Jessica Rowden

Posted on 07/23/2017 6:11:21 PM PDT by Carbonsteel

There are few things in the world that can get people as hyped up as hypotheticals about superheroes. Most people have opinions about which superhero characters they like, and even which actors they prefer to play major characters. Which brings us to Batman. The Caped Crusader has been everything from a young Bruce Wayne on the small screen in Gotham to an aging hero in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Recently a whole slew of people on a Comic-Con panel predictably couldn't agree on who the best Batman is, but their vociferous arguments might indeed sway you in a different direction.

As someone who dislikes Ben Affleck with every fiber of my being, I can't disagree with this assessment. Affleck actually played the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne to near perfection (having to say that made me throw up a little).

Jeremy Irons as Alfred was icing on the cake as the best of the Wayne butlers.

Batman vs. Superman was the most underated superhero movie ever.

Nope, nope, nope. Christian Bale is the Batman GOAT, and Caine’s Alfred owns Irons.

This isn't a fair election. I think the Russians are hacking it.

The only way Adam West won't win is because too many whipper snappers haven't seen him as Batman. He was better than all the rest put together.

Michael Keaton with the absolutely stunning Michelle Pfeiffer on the side.

Actually, I’m voting more for Michelle Pfeiffer....

Adam West, definitely. Who could walk up the side of a building like him?

IMO THE best Batman’s are Adam West, Michael Keaton and Christian Bale, in no order, as each had their own Era of and uniqueNess to the character.

My vote is for Michael Keaton. There has yet to be a really good Batman.

Walk “up”?

Well, of course! I hope you don't think that was faked. OK, yeah, the capes were hanging toward the building, but that was, uh, uh, rogue air currents. Yeah, that's it.

Batman be Superman was a train wreck on every level...

I don’t know why DC doesn’t trust and respect its own source material when it makes a movie..

There was no need for lex Luthor manipulating batman and superman into fighting their inherent personalities and motivations were enough to lead them to loggerheads and the kludging of the doomsday storyline into it was beyond stupid and didn’t work either...

Wonder Woman is probably the first DC super Hero movie in along long time that didn’t just suck.

Christian Bale went to visit the people in the hospital who were shot at The Dark Knight movie. And he’s a hunka.
