The Batman Reboot Casting Thread - Part 2

[RedIsNotBlue]

Disturbing lack of Fassbender in this thread.

he's more bond than batman to me. He's also magneto.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

ya, great actor, but I just don't get the him as batman thing

 

[KingMadness]

Kevin Porter from Batinthesun fan films is the perfect Batman. Perfect. He's basically Conroy Batman from BTAS and the Arkham games.

His Bruce Wayne might need work though, although we haven't really seen much of his Bruce, and nobody will be a better Bruce than Bale was.

 

[KingMadness]

Also Hawkman and Hawkgirl suck so much.

 

[Eddie Dean]

and nobody will be a better Bruce than Bale was.

Wrong.

 

[Homer J. Fong]

The Alec Baldwin of 20 years ago might be hard to get.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

Wrong.

that didn't happen because of this guy right?

what's the word on that?

 

[Eddie Dean]

They didn't get along during Beetlejuice.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

ah. so he went and cast the square peg for the round hole. don't get me wrong, i love keaton and his portrayal, but that's a missed opportunity right there.

 

[Homer J. Fong]

Alec Baldwin wouldn't have worked as Burton's Batman anyway. He could've worked as Schumacher's.

 

[Majik1387]

Well then Baldwin shouldn't have **** talked Burton so much.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

he does that a lot doesn't he.

 

[Sawyer]

Baldwin's a tool.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I like Baldwin. I think he could have made a good Bruce Wayne.

But I heard that Bill Murray was actually Burton's first choice for Batman. I can't even imagine how much that would have sucked. And I like Murray. But I can't see how that could have worked unless they were just doing an updated version of the Batman TV show.

I thought Bill Murray was considered when Ivan Reitman was onboard? I've never heard that Burton was thinking about him.

 

[BatLobster]

Michael Pitt for The Riddler

David Giuntoli for Batman

 

[Homer J. Fong]

^I hadn't thought of Pitt, but I like it.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

He could play Bond too. So what if he's Magneto? Chris Evans was also the Human Torch and he played a damn fine Captain America.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Michael Pitt is awesome. He could make a great Riddler. Or Joker, if they decide to revisit the character now that the Nolan films are finished.

 

[Majik1387]

Burton never thought about Murray for Bruce.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

i don't think we'll get to see batneto.

 

[axelbratoski]

Pitt seems like a good idea but my choice is Tim Roth.

 

[TheWatcher]

What about Alexander Skarsgard as Batman?

Left field choice but he's a really good actor.

I'm changing my mind on the Joe. M thing too. As you can tell I'm watching True Blood.

 

[Boosted]

both have great on screen charisma, which is important. skarsgard more than manganiello, but manganiello has the look more.
