BvS Ben Affleck IS Batman - - - - - - - Part 34

[Loden Greatstorm]

The toys make it look light grey.

 

[Spoonman]

The toys make it look light grey.

I guess I will go by how it looks in the trailers and pictures of the suit in conventions, which is normal gray to me.

Speaking of toys

Gawd, have mercy on me

 

[TheFlamingCoco]

Hey, I actually think Adam West is the best live action Batman.
They've attempted campy Batman on screen twice, and none of them have lived up to him.

Whereas, cold-blooded (Golden Age) Keaton and angry modern age Batman (Bale) have only been attempted once in live action.

 

[Loki882]

I don't know that I'd characterized Val Kilmer's Batman as "campy." He was actually pretty serious overall.

Yeah the problem was he was the only serious actor in that whole film.

Not re-start an old thing but wasn't there this big debate here about whether the suit had brass coloring on the knuckles and boots or not?

Was that resolved? because based on this it's pretty obvious.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

It was resolved a long time ago. Nobody is in question whether its there or not.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Yup. It is awful, but thankfully it will be hard to notice in the actual film.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

It looks about a million times worse on toys/statues/art than it does in the actual suit. Which is barely noticeable.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

So the Ben voice or the Keaton voice? From what I've heard I still prefer Keaton overall. Dat whisper is still so subtly intimidating.

 

[Boy Scout]

Affleck's voice has the potential to be better, but for right now, I have to give Keaton the edge.

This.

 

[shauner111]

Affleck's voice is deep, modulated and it almost sounds like an old guy growling. That must be what they were after. Older Batman with a deep growl. He sounds much older than 45. I like it.

I prefer Keaton and Bale but i still like it.

 

[I Am The Knight]

You prefer Keaton AND Bale?

 

[shauner111]

Yes.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Okie Dokie.

 

[Boy Scout]

Not gonna lie: I typically have a hard time taking complaints about Bale's voice seriously. It got a little worse after BB, but it wasn't even half as bad as a lot of people would have you believe.

 

[I Am The Knight]

It really was that bad. Shame, since it was great in BB.

 

[Boy Scout]

You're wrong.

 

[shauner111]

I love Bale's voice. I prefer that over modulation. Batfleck sounds as growly as Bale did to me, especially with his little scene with Superman at the end of the trailer.

And im only choosing Keaton and Bale over Affleck right now, just going by the footage so far. It's possible that ill like Ben's voice the most.

Bale's Batvoice really wasn't bad at all, and was even great at times throughout the trilogy -- even in TDK and TDKR. People seriously exaggerate when they go on about how awful it was.

Still, it did have have its fair share of noticeable problems. For one, it was jarringly inconsistent at times, sometimes even making it difficult to understand him. Beyond that, it forced Bale to speak in a way that was completely unnatural for him and required more effort on his part than was truly necessary. Many times, the typical vocal tones and inflections that could have been found in his voice were lost to give way to his forced, gravely voice that even sounded monotone sometimes.

I like what I heard of Ben's Batvoice, and the slight modulation will benefit him in the sense that his voice will almost certainly not have any of the same issues that Bale's had. It will be consistent, easier to understand, and it will allow Ben to speak naturally in normal voice when acting as Batman. The modulation will then give it that deeper, rougher edge, but nothing of Ben's performance will have been sacrificed because he won't be forced to keep up any kind of ridiculous voice that's unnatural to him or requires unnecessary effort. His voice will also carry a wider range of tones and inflections that will all come from Ben, but just tweaked.

I'm excited to hear more of it.

And he might be able to turn the voice modulation off when the situation does not deem it necessary.

We're more or less in agreement here.

I'd like the modulation to be a bit more subtle, but again, I think we're basically on the same page.

I had a hard time taking bale seriously in TDK/TDKR with that voice.
The voice with Bale's duck lips and lisp.
It was too much.
