I must say that I agree with the fact that there have been many poor casting decisions made when it comes to super heroes in movies. However, Keaton (despite being roughly 4 ft tall) did very well in the role of Batman. The first two Batman movies were very well directed, but the script & storyline should have been better. Clooney was a good Bruce Wayne but made a crap-ass Batman. Kilmer was an okay Batman but a terrible Bruce. Keaton, however, was able to play both characters very well. Anyone who tells you differently is lying or an ass. David Boreanaz could do a decent job as Batman. He wouldn't be my top choice, but not bad. As Superman? Never. I can't see how that would even begin to make sense. Another thing which doesn't make a damn bit of sense is how anyone in their right mind could ever put Batman and Triple H in the same sentence together. My god man, Triple H? Triple H?! Triple H as Batman? Really? Really? Just say that out loud a few times. "Triple H as Batman." There seems to be something missing from that statement. Oh, right, it's logic. You see, Triple H is a pro wrestler. Now I'll admit, he's a very good wrestler, one of the best in the business if you ask me. But still, he's a fucking professional wrestler. Pick someone who can act. That was the poblem with previous casting choices. Please, give Batman's character a little more credit & respect than that. I think that Bob Kane would stab you with an ice pick for that.
