Christian Bale's Batman audition:

The audition voice Bale uses is his Batman Begins voice which I always preferred to the later voices.

 

God damn it, I'm going to buy the trilogy again, aren't I?

 

Reading this review right now and there's some interesting stuff.

Nolan said if he knew he was going to make a sequel to TDK, he probably wouldn't have killed Harvey Dent. He originally wanted Oldman to play Ra's al Ghul. The Blu Ray shows Cillian Murphy's Batman audition.

This is worth looking at, 30 facts about Batman movies:

Madonna as Harley Quinn?  I *kinda* see it.  The late Brittany Murphy would have been my choice had she shown up in the later films, though. Marilyn Manson as Jonathan Crane?  OK, that could have worked, but Cillian Murphy is fantastic.

Thanks for this. I liked Dent's death as the heroes win but at costs. Something thinking about Gary Oldman as Ra's al Ghul knowing the great job Gordon did as Gordon and Liam Neeson as al Ghul. Like to see Cillian Murphy's Batman audition

I didn’t need molded plastic to improve my physique. Pure. West.

 

 

Liking the reference!

Keaton almost looks like the more menacing Batman too.

 

Keaton had the best jawline. And always had that semi-5 O'Clock shadow that made him look kinda grizzled.

 

 

I've liked this Batsuit design for a while (in spoiler tags for size):

Honestly, the best real-life Batsuit I ever saw was in that fanmade Batman movie (the one where Boner from Growing Pains played the Joker). For all the people who argue the suit has to be armor-ish and there's no way to make tights work, look at that short and tell me Batman doesn't look badass.

Images of Cillian Murphy's Bruce Wayne/Batman audition for Batman Begins and Anne Hathaway's Selina Kyle/Catwoman audition for The Dark Knight Rises. Hopefully the videos will then come out.

I prefer this look to the one in The Dark Knight Rises. The short hair would have worked as well.

I was talking to a friend about the Batman casting the other day, and I totally forgot about back before Bale was cast as Bruce Wayne/Batman, we were really hoping Guy Pearce would be cast in that role. Wasn't he in the running for that role at some point?
