Batman Begins
Have you seen it? How do you think it stacks up to the most recent installments of Batman films?

I think that I would rate this Batman as the second one from the franchise. With the first being the Original.
The one had a great story, good characters, and the best batmobile. So they strayed from the story about the joker slightly, who cares, it was a great movie, long, but when you are in the theatre you think that it is short

I liked the movie and I already said that. Two things that I'd like to mention are
1. Highly entertaining. Sounds so obvious, but I think it's important when the movie is based on a comic book.
2. There is some darkness in the story. Critical when the movie is based on a comic book.

Batman Forever (Batman 3) was pretty disappointing. I didn't bother watching (Batman 4); I didn't want to waste my time ...

I've only seen the first two Batman's and this most recent one and I must say that although I wasn't disappointed I had very low expectations to begin with.
Christin Bale made a wimpy Batman. I kind of expect a superhero movie to have a real superhero main character and this script plus Christian Bale just didn't do it for me.
Average.

Who, do you think, would have made a good Batman?

That's a hard call. I think Toby McGuire makes a good Spiderman for example but Batman is a much harder character to pull off.
Christian Bale just didn't cut it in my opinion.
Who do you think was the best/worst Batman out of Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney or Christian Bale?
I missed a few Batman movies so I'm not familiar with the performances of Kilmer or Clooney.

Michael Keaton, BUT it's hard to judge others because their Batman movies were pretty lousy. Whether Michael Keaton was a great match to playing Batman is debatable, but it feels like he was a good match because his Batman movies were good.

Okay, if Michael Keaton was the best in your opinion then who was the worst Batman?
I've heard some people suggest Val Kilmer was the worst but I'd be interested in others views.

Right, but those two were the only ones directed by Tim Burton. Maybe Burton's sensibility was right for the Batman movies and the other ones have been let down by lousy directors who didn't understand what Batman was about and couldn't turn a concept into a great film.

Yeah ... maybe. Kind of hesitate to say that though because, I think, he is a pretty descent actor.

Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale saved the franchise.
When the outfit began to feature nipples we knew we were in trouble.
Batman Begins is stiff competition to the original film.

I think it was one of the better ones. I really like Batman 1 and 2, Batman 3 was going down hill and the rest was terrible. Batman Begins revived the Batman for me.
