BvS The Batsuit Thread - - - - - - Part 29

[BatFan1979]

I'm pretty sure Bale is a legit 6'0.

I was going to say...the last time Chris and I threw back a pint, we seemed to be the same height, so...

 

[doobie]

Clooneys Batman had just returned from a long Thogal ritual where he starved himself.

 

[KillerWolf]

But hell, I absolutely love Morrison's work.

 

[doobie]

That's not the B&R suit, its the suit they tailored for Bale while he was filming Machinist.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

That's not the B&R suit, its the suit they tailored for Bale while he was filming Machinist.

They never made a suit for Bale while he was on The Machinist, they screen-tested him in an older suit, but there was no retro suit made for him since the design of the new Batman Begins suit was begin made up.

 

[Travesty]

I thought Bale tested in the Forever Sonar suit?

 

[KillerWolf]

I believe that he was joking.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

I thought Bale tested in the Forever Sonar suit?

I think it's the first Batman Forever suit.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

I believe that he was joking.

I see the joke...

I've said it once I'll say it again my sarcasm detector for posts is shot. To much time on other parts of the internet.

You should print this on a shirt:

[Mr. Blue Sky]

I'll print it out as a reminder

 

[regwec]

Or tattoo it to your forehead.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

A little on the nose, wouldn't you say?

 

[KillerWolf]

[Jekecy]

No, he clearly wrote forehead.

 

[Snakewise]

Bale auditioned in the Sonar suit. It's the only one other than the atrocious toy seller suit Clooney wore at the end of B&R that doesn't use the oval.

 

[souperman]

I couldn't tell you, and that it merely a deduction that I have made by seeing him alongside numerous other actors and celebrities.

I have a theory (unsupported by any empirical evidence) that every actor beneath 6'1" exaggerates their height, and most above 6'3" quote it downwards.

For actresses, it's probably something like 5'3" and 5'9".

This is true. The men all add a few inches...
The women take away a few...so there's no echo...

When you see them standing beside a known short person, it is always a surprise. Also why you don't recognise them on the street so much, gotta look down to see em..

 

[Enriquespy]

No, he clearly wrote forehead.

Last comment on the topic as to stop derailing the thread, but none of these villains (save potentially deadshot, iffy on Quinn and the captain), are true supervillains. They work under others, often as muscle or lower-end mercs, at least in comparison to supervillains like Deathstroke. As a result, I have trouble calling them more than just regular criminals with some extra skills in their arsenal. Most don't have access to millions and millions of dollars or crazy levels of power, and their designs show it.

If you are a perpetrator of supercrime, you are a supervillain. A B-list supervillain is still a supervillain, the same way a B-list superhero is still a superhero.

 

[Bathead]

Wow, Clooney's Batman was small.

And apparently the suit is black, not blue like everybody says, which is pretty much what I figured.

 

[Superherofan123]

Clooney filmed a movie in my home town a few years ago and those that met him said he was shorter than they imagined...5'10" at the tallest.

 

[Boom]

The Laughing Fish is one of the best episodes on that show, and with one of my favorite lines from Mark Hamill's Joker.

"Woo! Look what I caught! Kinda runty though... I'm gonna have to throw it back!"

Just perfect delivery.

 

[Boom]

Just the way he feigns disappointment in the most exaggerated way possible, followed by the laugh.

As I said, perfect.

 

[titansupes]

I think it's the first Batman Forever suit.

It's the silver Sonar Suit, just painted black.

 

[Bruce Malone]

Yup.

Only Shumacher Batman suit I didn't mind.
