Which Batman introduction scene did you like more?

Baleman's was cool but Batfleck gave us a true perspective of what I beleive everyone one save for Jim, The Batfamily and his Rouges see batman as, a creature of the night with almost supernatural abilities.

The wall crawling sold it for me.

Baleman.

Keaton

Bale; not even close. That one scene essentially defined the gameplay in the Arkham games.

Begins stomps.

Baleman

Batfleck FTW.

Now if Baleman's intro was the sewer scene in TDKR when he's taking out Bane's goons, that's a different story.

Bale

WHERE ARE YOU!!!!!!!

here

Bale

Bale.

Batfleck

Easily Bale's. Affleck's wall crawling was kind of cool but it was also a bit ridiculous and not something Batman would really ever do. I mean why is he just chilling in the corner waiting to scare a cop?

Bale hanging upside down from a crane, snatching guys from the darkness and being unseen was a lot better. Affleck just looked kind of silly, especially with the branding crap.

Lol how is Batfleck above 10%

Baleman is obviously the answer.

"WHERE ARE YOU?!?!"

"...here."

That is far more frightening and intimidating that Batfleck's stupid looking corner hanging/wall crawling. In fact, that scene in Batman Begins is probably the best live action Batman scene ever filmed. Yes, better than the Warehouse.

Batfleck. He was goddamn scary.

Baleman was overrated.

Bale and it's not even remotely close.

Baleman stomps, come on now. What does Batfleck have going for him there? Silly music really.

I said it back when the Batmobile sequences of both films were compared, Balemans scene actually has a story, Batfleck is all about just looking good even at the cost of logic and sense. As someone mentioned why the F*ck was he chilling there? Even in the fabled warehouse scene he just goes guns blazing leaving Martha endangered. Baleman would have saved Martha first. Zack Snyders story telling is horrid.

Batfleck

@entropy_aegis: Baleman would have died.

Fighting fodder? haha NO. He would have picked them apart one by one using stealth, actual tactics like he did in the Prewitt building sequence, darts like in Rises.

Batfleck was a muscle bound tank with skill, he's the most overrated Batman to ever exist. His fighting style is a lot more appropriate for comic Bane not Batman.

Baleman. As much as intimidating as it was in BvS when Batman first appeared, Baleman's introduction just stomps. In a way it's scarier, it's dark as well and actually comes at a very good moment of the movie.

@entropy_aegis: yeah hes going to pick them off when theyre in such close proximity with guns loaded. they would have killed batfleck with their guns had he not disabled them before the fight even began

BALEMAN! I'd been waiting for a scene like this since I rediscovered Batman at 16. I've never seen any Batman scene before or since this awesome.

^ Yup.

Bale's intro was a well crafted reveal, which served as the turning point for an amazing film. Its hard to appreciate how unbelievable the thought of a gritty, grounded, and intelligent Batman origin film was if you didnt grow up watching the increasingly ridiculous series which proceeded it. The thugs on the dock are terrified, we can see it. Batman finally becomes the urban legend and avenger in Bale's reveal, and we got to see it all come together in that very scene. It defined what Batman on screen could be.

Affleck's reveal was pandering to fifteen year old boys who wanted Batman to be cooler and darker than the Nolan iteration. Whereas Bale's reveal was a methodical and imaginative new take on what a cinematic Batman could be, Affleck's relied on dilapidated scenery and derivative dialogue in which we're told how Batman comes off like a demon and scares people rather than ya know, being shown it in a film.

Uh, yeah he would, just like he did to the guys on the dock. Bunch of guys armed and grouped close together, all taken out with little to no difficulty. But BvS fanboys gonna fanboy.

Ha. Yeah he isnt taking them down. the dock guys were idiots and all split up.

Baleman wont be able to do his inverted takedowns in a small warehouse.

@thelastdragonborn: Only the first couple are split up, so I guess you missed the part where he drops into the middle of a dozen armed thugs and takes them all out in a couple seconds.

So the fodder on the dock are idiots, but the fodder in the warehouse are criminal masterminds? Thanks for clearing that up.

After just rewatching the warehouse scene, Bale's Batman clears way quicker, and with less difficulty. Affleck's Batman is sloppy and reckless putting on a big show so he looks cool for the fanboys. Bale drops a smoke bomb, so they cant see or shoot (they'd just be shooting each other) and quickly/quietly takes them out. No need for a big entrance, or to throw some crates around and look cool. He would have had Mrs. Kent untied and been out the door before the smoke cleared. Don't forget, with intelligence and tactics he had his own, much better warehouse-esque scene at the end of TDK, with many more hostages to worry about, and an entire swat team he left unharmed.

@patera_all:

Maybe.

Let me tell you this though... Batfleck wouldnt struggle with two dogs :p

(PS nolan batman movies are the best, i just prefer batflecks more cb accurate portrayal)

@thelastdragonborn: Haha, my only defense here is that I doubt either Batman would want to hurt the dogs too bad.

@patera_all: Maybe not Batfleck in BvS. He literally gave no shits in that movie lol

I would be surprised if the creators of the Arkham games weren't inspired by this scene when they desing the predator mode. It's such a great scene showing how Batman operates.

@thelastdragonborn: Dude, I actually considered whether or not I thought Batfleck would hurt a dog, and I think he's still a good guy, despite the pessimism. If the officer unloading the shotgun was spared due to his ignorance, then the dog deserves the same consideration.
