Batman/Bruce Wayne Casting Thread - Part 3

[Travesty]

“Homophobia”? lol, what the hell are you talking about?

Seriously, PM me, I have to meet you in real life. I have to see if this is real. You’re a riot. (Is saying you’re a riot or real homophobic????)

 

[Frodo]

I'm not even gonna touch the whole height issue.

At this point , I really don't have a preference for who should play Reeves's Batman since we don't know for certain what type of Batman Reeve's is going for.

I know I don't want another big name or a flavor of the month, but other than that, i'm really not on any bandwagon for a particular actor.

At this point, I really don't have an actor in mind in particular for the part.

 

[fan4stic]

I can get Oscar Isaac, but I think he's almost too suave to play Batman. Maybe Harvey Dent? Don't get me wrong, I think there's generally considered to be a suaveness to Bruce, but I've started to dig the idea of a more eccentric Jake Gyllenhaal take on Batman. Like Keaton.

Of course, I'd like Isaac to be Lex, but I think that's not necessarily in the cards now.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

......no, I don't think so.

There's no damage to control.

He's not ****ing Hervé Villechaize. He's 5'9, and y'all are riding on a gif of him standing next to a woman, whose break-out role has frequently centered on her being f***ing huge, as a way to disregard him from the conversation.

If RDJ's Artist Formerly Known as Prince-sized ass can be Iron Man, Oscar Isaac can be Batman.

Look, that’s going to be a no from me....

 

[Deck Rickard]

 

[Boom]

Look, that’s going to be a no from me....

 

[David H.]

“... yes, father. I shall become a bat.”

 

[DOBSON10]

I can really see Bruce there

Also Dobson who do you want to see as Batman then? I recall you hating Gyllenhaal for Bats as well. He would’ve been great.

I'm iffy on Isaac as Batman, but Dobson really seems to have a hate-on for the guy. Disliking him in Apocalypse I can understand, but Isaac has been great in pretty much everything else he's been in, lately.

I don't have any hate for him, I just simply don't think he's that great of an actor and I don't think he fits for the role. It's mostly personal preference, I feel like the actor playing Batman should have a grit and toughness about them. A strong voice, a commanding presence, a bit of rage, these are qualities I don't see in Issac. To put it frankly, he's too soft to play Batman.

I didn't "hate" Gyllenhaal for Batman, I'd prefer him over Issac by a landslide but he's also kind of soft spoken and meek. He'd be solid, because he's a very good actor and after seeing him in Southpaw I think he can fake it enough to be adequate but I think there are better choices.

My main choice has always been Bale, but he had his turn (He was exceptional). Michael Fassbender is my Top choice at the moment.

This thread is chaos.

 

[Travesty]

This thread is chaos.

Don't worry, this thread will be fixed with movie magic.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Don't worry, this thread will be fixed with movie magic.

Some things can't change... (5'7 is still 5'7 no matter how much movie magic is involved)

 

[Boy Scout]

Right, we can create entire solar systems with CGI in less than six months, but making a grown man look taller is a bridge too far.

 

[Lobo]

Let's break the internet, Jared Leto as Bruce Wayne

 

[Travesty]

Let's break the internet, Jared Leto as Bruce Wayne

But he still has to play The Joker.

 

[David H.]

Let's break the internet, Jared Leto as Bruce Wayne

Even better:

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Right... very few want that bridge built. It will never happen so carry on...

 

[Travesty]

Even better:

That’s not a bad idea, but now that I think of it, Mellisa McCarthy could be a great Batman. Ya know, Keaton was comedic actor with Mr. Mom before Batman, and he was great. I could see her pulling it off. Just do a little bit of movie magic, and bada bing bada boom: Batman.

It’s time.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Is it just me or did Affleck look half asleep in a lot of his scenes as Bruce?

 

[Frodo]

Gal Gadot in anything is a good idea as far as I'm concerned..

 

[Boy Scout]

Right... very few want that bridge built. It will never happen so carry on...

Just for that, I hope they cast Peter Dinklage.

 

[Aximili86]

Well, there it is, Dinklage Batman.

Make it so!

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Just for that, I hope they cast Peter Dinklage.

Still better than Issac.
