  • With Robert Pattinson stepping into the bat suit for 2021’s ‘The Batman,’ we’re looking back Dark Knight’s past to answer one of superhero-dom’s biggest questions: Who is the greatest of the caped crusaders we’ve seen on the big screen? Is it moody Christian Bale? Or quirky Michael Keaton? Perhaps it’s the original, Adam West, or the man whose voice work made ‘Batman: The Animated Series’ a landmark, Kevin Conroy, who also voiced the Bat in ‘Mask of the Phantasm’ and ‘The Killing Joke.’ In this latest episode of ‘Vs.,’ host Mark Ellis pits Bale, Keaton, West, and Conroy against Ben Affleck, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, and Will Arnett to determine who is cinema’s ultimate Batman. Who’s made the most bank? Who’s riding high and super-Fresh on the Tomatometer? And who’s had the biggest cultural impact? Find out and, as ever, let us know what you think in the comments.

    For me it's not even close, christian bales is by far the best. With him in the cowl a awesome trilogy was born with the most realistic version of the caped crusader. Great writing, directing, acting, casting, set design and characters. I feel it will be a long time before we get another one this good. They churn out so many different versions and movies of batman these day it's getting a bit stale imo. The trilogy came off a long hiatus from bats being on the big screen and it payed off. Animated versions are always pretty cool too.

    I liked Michael Keaton. His sharp and quick physical movements and eye expressions were distinct and set him apart from the others.

I'm glad the film makers got away from the goofy characters and lame attempts at humor from the earlier batman era.

      @@anthonylopez899 well, if we're talking about live action versions of Batman, Batfleck still wins. Bale's version happens to be more of a "what if Batman existed in real life" kind of thing, and although it was well written and had a more consistent story, it had very little to do with the Batman mythos (besides, the comparison is really unfair, because he had a whole standalone trilogy with room for character development, while Batfleck only had two films where he wasn't even the main character, plus a cameo in SS).
      You can talk all the smack you want about BvS, but when I saw it, all I kept saying was "this IS Batman". Everything from the suit, to the way he talks, his gadgets, he really looks like a guy who's been doing this for 20+ years, a guy that's older and weary, and you wonder what he would have been like in his prime. I didn't feel that with Bale's Batman, I just saw a vigilante inspired by the comic books, not the real thing.

    The Reason Why Nolan's Batman Is Considered Best Is Because Christian Bale Portrayed Batman Unlike Any Other Actor Has Done. He Didn't Just Stood Inside That Suit, He Lived Inside It, Giving Batman Character & Charisma. Alongside Christopher Nolan's Brilliant Character Development (Using Batman Begins Extensively As Origin Story) and Inspirational & Philosophical Dialogues Like "Why Do We Fall", Nolan's Batman, Portrayed By A Brilliant Bale Was Simply Great. The Acting, Philosophy, Dialogues, Character Developments etc. (And That Bat Suit & Symbol ❤️) Were Lacking In Other Movies Like That of Affleck & Keaton. Its Just My Opinion...
