Batman: Christian Bale

Robin: Burt Ward
Alfred: Michael Caine
Commissioner Gordon: Gary Oldman
The Joker: Heath Ledger
Catwoman: Julie Newmar
The Riddler;Frank Gorshin

Seeing the answers in this thread, Bale seems underrated as Batman. I know the voice becomes a bit too much sometimes but damn he has some absolutely defining classic Batman moments.
 
Batman: Michael Keaton
Bruce Wayne: Lewis Wilson (lazy pleasure-loving playboy persona) & Michael Keaton (philanthropist, natural ladies man, the inner self)
Honorable Batman Mention: Lewis Wilson
Robin the Boy Wonder: Douglas Croft
Alfred: Michael Gough
Commissioner Gordon: Gary Oldman
Batgirl: Yvonne Craig
Joker: Jack Nicholson
Catwoman: Michelle Pfeiffer
Two Face: Aaron Eckhart
Penguin: Danny DeVito
Riddler: Frank Gorshin
Mr. Freeze: George Sanders

Batman: Michael Keaton & Christian Bale, both are great for the interpretations of the character they play
Bruce Wayne: Christian Bale
Robin: Burt Ward
Alfred: Michael Caine (Although I did like Gough too, but Alfred should be more than just an old guy servant, Caine actually makes me think that if he really had to, he could kick some ass, or at least defend himself)
Commissioner Gordon: Gary Oldman
Batgirl: Yvonne Craig
The Joker: Jack Nicholson & Heath Ledger (Again, both played their respective interpretations of the characters near perfect)
Catwoman: Julie Newmar
The Riddler: Frank Gorshin (Jim Carrey was greatly MISCAST as Riddler, never in my wildest dreams could I see Ace Ventura as a master of puzzles or any type of genius)
The Penguin: Burgess Meredith (Didnt care for the freak version of Penguin)
Two Face: Aaron Eckhart (Although if Tommy Lee Jones had been involved in a better directed and scripted Batman, he couldve been awesome as Two Face)
Mr. Freeze: George Sanders

I didnt recall seeing anyone pick Arnold as their Mr. Freeze, perhaps they share my opinion in not ever being able to buy him as any sort of scientist. I couldnt even imagine Arnold using a basic high school chemistry set, let alone being a leading cryogenics researcher.
 
HEROES:

Batman/Bruce Wayne: Michael Keaton
Robin/Dick Grayson: Burt Ward
Batgirl: Dina Meyer (I haven't seen Birds of Prey but she is the better actress)
Alfred: Alan Napier
Commissioner Gordon: Gary Oldman

VILLAINS:

Joker: Jack Nicholson
Penguin: Danny Devito
Catwoman: Michelle Pfieffer
Riddler: Frank Gorshin
Two-Face: Aaron Eckhart
Mr Freeze: Arnold Schwarzenegger :awesome:
Bane: Jeep Swenson :awesome: (Maybe change my mind after July 2012)
Joe Chill: Clyde Gatell (from Batman '89) :awesome:
Sal Maroni: Dennis Paladino (from Batman Forever) :awesome: (At least he got to throw acid on Harvey's face.)

And that's about it I think. Though if I could include animated incarnations, my list would be different.
