[Superherofan123]

You're wrong.

No I'm not.

No I'm not.

Go ahead and give some examples.

Eager to return behind the camera and redeem himself for Live by Night, Ben Affleck is in early talks to direct the war movie RED PLATOON for Sony, multiple sources have told the Tracking Board.

Ben Affleck next stars in WB’s Justice League and remains attached to star in The Batman from director Matt Reeves. While Live by Night represented a rare stumble for Affleck as a director, Red Platoon offers the kind of material that’s right in his wheelhouse. He’s represented by WME.

I for one was glad we finally got a worn and jaded Batman with actual stubble, after years of smooth chins.

 

[morningmimosa]

Yup, dude must tons of testosterone. No way he'd always be clean shaven.

Unpopular opinion: Batman Forever gave us the second best cowl.

Kilmer was also a better Bruce and Batman than Keaton.

 

[The Shape]

Nah.

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

Kilmer was a good Bruce Wayne and a decent Batman, but I never liked how the cowl accentuates his features. He looks like his name should be 'Pouty Man.'

 

[Chip Chipperson]

always had a soft spot for Kilmer.

the man had a really interesting darkness/brooding feeling about him. Maybe it was just the black turtleneck. idk.

 

[2kt09]

In a couple of decades, Pete Holmes can play Kilmer's body double...height notwithstanding

Two notes about the Snyder cowl:

1. The eye holes are minimal, which helps the cowl further blend in with Ben's eyes. This is an integral part of the success I believe, beside the short ears and the texture of the cowl.

2. The ears on the cowl always looked a bit ummm... "off" to me. I just figured out the reason. It's because of how the ears blend in with the crest of the skull. I wish I could attach a picture so I could show what I mean. Otherwise its fantastic!

I prefer them to blend that way. Looks more stylistic and tasteful than when they don't and they just end up looking like devil horns rather than ears.

I like them looking like devil horns.

Sony?

Apparently shooting next year, with Fox.

Looks like he's finished with WB

I love the Snyderverse Batman cowl. It's the first one - in my opinion - which works perfectly. I felt the Kilmer/Clooney ones from the Schumacher era were too polished and the ears too long, the 60s one was like a kids party mask, the Bale one was too snug and made his chin look fat, and the original Keaton one - whilst pretty good - now looks very rubbery and has zero neck movement.

Agree totally about the eye holes, it helps a lot. Look how big they were on previous ones such as the famous shot of Keaton ripping the mask off in Batman Returns, when they had do run a quick take of him without the black eye makeup in order for the scene to work

I assume when they did the same in BvS (Superman rips the mask off Bruce), they used CGi to dark Ben's eyes.

Now that I think about it, I wonder why Burton didn't darken them digitally in Batman Returns? I know it was 1992, but it wasn't beyond their capability - Terminator 2 was out a year earlier with the fully CGi T1000, and Jurassic Park's CGi dinosaurs came along in 1993.

Kilmer was a great Doc Holiday but a so-so BruceBat. Not all his fault of course. But he was WAY too small/slight of build to be a truly believable BATMAN. Keaton had the same problem for me. Burton's Batman was great for the time, being the first BIG budget Batman that was not
totally tongue-in- cheek.

 

[Tra-El]

As much as I love Keaton and the other Batman cowls, now that we've got Affleck's Batman, I can't help but laugh at the comparisons to the others lol.

...but it is a nostalgic laugh. As you imply, they all had their time and place and fit their worlds and most were fun...but...

...and this is serious...

Not like he signed his life away to WB either. I mean Chris Nolan is WB's golden boy and he made Interstellar with Paramount. Comic Fanboy's really are dumb (Don't mean you btw) thinking this mean he's not working with WB again. LMAO!

 

[morningmimosa]

Still can't believe that we went from full armored black suit to this perfection maynes.

This is literally perfect. Cant believe we have such a perfect Batman in Justice League guys.

Unpopular opinion: I LOVE Tombstone, grew up on it, it was the film that started my love of Westerns, but I actually prefer Dennis Quaid's Doc Holliday to Kilmer's. He just feels much more authentic to me. Doesn't have as many great lines, but I feel like he's probably closer to the real deal.

Back to Batman....
