so now they want to do ANOTHER Batman movie...who should be cast?

@BohemianBoo you don't even know who Adam West is

@DIABLISS As a huge Batman fan, I had the misfortune of coming across the sixties Batman TV show.

@BohemianBoo it was a spoof and he...a serious actor....was sublime in the role

@DIABLISS If it was bad on purpose, then sure, he was great at making it terrible.

@BohemianBoo the most amazing actors were on it with him and that made it even better. those were all famous serious actors playing these cartoon characters. i am sorry for you that you didn't understand or enjoy it

@DIABLISS It's also a show that was so succesfull, that it strangled the Batman comic book sales. Mainly because people that were attracted to the Batman character... this cold dark traumatized avenger, were now served a bizar farse of a character that the bigger public liked because of it's comic relieve. Which pushed away the original fans, for a group of people that went away after the fad ended. Ending Batmans' silver age, with dropping sales because DC lost a big segment of the original fanbase and then lost those that jumped on the bandwagon that were just there because of the shows popularity. Batman only got better when creators started bringing Batman back to its roots, and made him even darker. Almost all the best stories in Batmans' comic book carreer, the same stories that the movie business is banking on btw, were written when DC ditched the comical and even more childish version of Batman [i](because, well... Batman is still aimed at young adults, it will always have a simplistic childish undertone)[/i].

... This has nothing to do with how good of an actor someone is though. Actors follow the director and the script. Batman from the 60s might be amusing, but I totally understand that people that read Batman rather not have it mingle with what fans actually like about Batman. And it's also why a lot of Batman fans start their Batman timeline either at the beginning of the "Bronze Age" OR after "Crisis on infinite Earths" when the (arguably) better story lines were created.

@Kwek00 i just like it because it is possible unlike Superman
