>>Dude, Your right Jude Law is a joke! In my opinion who ever would cast him as superman should be kicked out of the movie business. The truth is, the movie should have the intelligence that both Batman and Superman portray. If they go on the stupid concept of the recent Batman movies, they should just drop the whole movie project. At least the cartoons make sense and most definately have a good story line that at least I can get into. I'm gonna stick with my original message, Dean Cain and David Boreanaz for Superman and Batman. If they don't use these two guys with an intelligent story line, their stupid and I for one would be totally disapointed! Alright, later!

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.

Author: Actor Choosers [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 01:26:49 05/10/03 Sat It will be so IDIOT if Jude Law plays as Superman. Dean Cain or Josh Hartnett is the most correct and suitable to play as Superman.

I think John Schneider or Tom Welling (from Television's Smallville) should be considered for the part of Clark Kent/Superman in the new movie.

As for Batman - I agree with Adam West playing alfred..but there was only one actor that played Batman and played him well (and undoubtedly should play him again) - Michael Keaton. (and bring back Kim Basinger as Vicky Vale)

Author: Harley Qate [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 04:43:37 12/08/03 Mon Thank you Brad Hill, thank you. Michael Keaton really was the best Batman ever. Kim Basinger rocks as well.

Author: carol celine [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 06:42:39 12/02/03 Tue David Boreanaz could play both roles. He's soooo gorgeous and any excuse to see him on the big screen is fine by me! Also he's a good actor, not of oscar-calibre mind you, but he could definitely carry both roles off. Let's hope he gets to do one of them-I can't wait to see him on screen again!
