Agree with this 100%! The movie looks good, I love the dark tone, but I'm just not sure they're ever going to convince me on the person they decided to cast as the role for Batman/Bruce Wayne.

Any particular reason? He’s a phenomenal actor.

The reaction to this trailer reminds me of the reaction people had when Heath was cast as the Joker.

Batman wannabe looks like a 14 year old in the batsuit. Lame.

How? He’s a 34 year old man who is taller/heavier in real life than both Bale and Keaton’s portrayals. Whoever mistakes him for a 14 year old must have very poor eyesight.

This is something I knew was going to bug me the second he was casted in the role. People who only know Robert from Twilight were going to spew the same generic stuff, probably merely because they disliked the films he was in 12 years ago.

I don’t know, never seen it.

Well, then get your eyes checked.

And if he’s playing a young version of Batman, I don’t see what the problem is.

Now for my own comments -

The thing I appreciate the most from this trailer is the depiction of The Riddler as an actual serial killer type bad guy. This is the first depiction of a darker riddler I can remember. Like Zodiac killer style.

IDK, they don't really show enough of him in a decent lighting for me to form a strong opinion on The Batman, but I certainly didn't have a "Whoa!" moment watching the trailer.

Honestly @DoctorChicken , I don't remember Ledger getting a critical response, from his trailers.

I agree, while it's a huge departure from any Riddler I've ever seen, I welcome the change up. I think we can thank Heath for this.

"Heavier" than Bale?

That's not accurate.

I remember a few people saying Ledger was too “pretty boy” to be the Joker, especially after 10 Things I Hate About You and Brokeback Mountain.

Now whether one thinks Rob P looks too young or not is a matter of opinion (even though in the comics, Batman starts his career at 26 if I recall correctly). I just don’t see it.

IDK, if he looks in the movie the way he does in the trailer, he doesn't have the typical Batman look. But we'll see, eventually.
