Batman 5 - Batman Begins

Well, I am surprised that there hasn't been anything put up about this little beauty...

http://www.empireonline.co.uk/site/f...0&NID=21&ISN=0

The casting seems a little off... Michael Caine as Alfred Penworthy??? For me, Michael Gough will always be the quintessential Alfred...

Can Christian Bale do justice to the legend of Batman??? Michael Keeton was by far the best - funny, clumsy, dark, mysterious, dangerous, underrated...

And this one includes The Scarecrow as the nemesis of Batman... Oh, joy...

Dunno about you, but I'm willing to go see it, if only for the fact that Joel Schumaker isn't about to massacre it...

Re: Batman 5 - Batman Begins

I agree Michael Keaton was the best Batman. Then followed by Val Kilmer, who was maybe a little too dark and broody but not bad. George Clooney smiles too much to be a convincing Batman. Oh well, just my opinion. I look forward to seeing what Christian Bale does with the character.

Re: Batman 5 - Batman Begins

I vote for Michael Keaton, too. Well, please dont't tell to anybody, but I would like to have his car.

Hey Brian and Master, new avatars ? I'm impressed.

Re: Batman 5 - Batman Begins

I believe the Batman Begins film was first mentioned within this thread.

I am really looking forward to the film. I don't know how I feel about the choice of who will play Batman this time around, but, to be honest, this next film looks even more promising than Tim Burton's stab at the DC universe.

Have you actually watched the trailer!?

This looks awesome!

I agree that 3 and 4 were totally cringeworthy, but I have a feeling this is going to break that trend.

It certainly looks like it could be the darkest Batman movie yet!

Re: Batman 5 - Batman Begins

Not seen the trailer - but Scarecrow??

I don't think I'll be happy until they do Frank Miller's "Dark Knight Returns". That would be a knockout movie, if it kept anywhere near to the book...
