[@skippertrey]

Batfleck driving to the DK Trilogy music is so badass. Well done.

[@imbatman3696]

1:00 I like how in this video Batfleck is the one fighting Bane and he doesn't have any problems to knock him down and beat a shit out of Bane XD so satisfying...

[@TownieGirl1974]

I love that this video isn't another "Christian Bale's Batman vs Ben Affleck's Batman" Fan Made Trailer/Video. I love the idea of this being a "Christian Bale's Batman Passing the Torch to Ben Affleck's Batman" video. I love the idea that they actually knew each other, that they met in person etc. That made the idea of Bale's Batman passing the torch to Ben's Batman & Ben's Batman wanting to over for Bale's Batman even more compelling & moving to watch. I love this even more each time I watch this. I'm really hoping this video goes viral when Ben Affleck's first solo Batman movie comes out. I think that's when it will too.

[@TownieGirl1974]

The way you set this video up - by the time we got to 2:20 & Ben Afflecks' Batman says the following about Christian Bale's Batman: "I failed him..... in life.....I won't fail him in death....." - I'm not gonna lie, I teared up a bit. I absolutely love the concept of that truly being how Bale's Batman was passed on to Affleck's Batman in the DC movie universe.

[@AdeelofSteel]

Thank you...Too bad people didn't care for the video that much. Adeel of Steel was never real.

[@TownieGirl1974]

Adeel of Steel You watch......once Ben Affleck's first solo Batman movie actually comes out, people will find this video. And to take it a step further than that, when Ben's first solo Batman movie comes out & the DVD is released - I would remake this video - with the same theme in mind - and use new footage/dialogue we get in Ben's solo Batman movie. In other words.......This is the video Batman fans deserve, but not the one it needs right now. Give it time. Batman fans will find this video. Oh & you are very real. You & these videos are all some people have. You & these videos are what gives people hope.

[@azerstudio1940]

Hi Adeel of Steel.I want to know what the name of second song of this video.

[@supratimchakraborty4244]

Adeel of Steel Ur works are real to the Batman fans like us; no matter how nuts or multiverse storylines turn out to exist. O:) "I believe U." (y) I respect Ur effort. O:) More than that... I appreciate Ur generosity for making such a fascinating master-piece. O:) (y)

[@colinmoras2385]

Adeel of Steel You give hope and thats all some people have. You’re real when its useful ;)

[@UltraSargent]

Soooo good. Epic job.

[@AdeelofSteel]

Thanks buddy.

[@ryanlim2710]

Alvin and

[@Space_Man01]

I'll always love Christian Bale batman. I grew up with him and never giving Christian up

[@Nic_03_21]

Yess!!

[@Hunk62]

the message of this video is, that we should appreciate two of the best Batman potrayals and what do the people in the comments do? fight over it. I'm ashamed.

[@godphoenix66x]

Mr. Aziz You're right. Can we all agree that Keaton sucked though? Maybe that could unite the Bale and Affleck fans with something in common.

[@Hunk62]

godphoenix66x Keaton is overrated, but it wouldn't unite us because fans of both sides would use him only to downrate the other. Notice how diehard Affleck/Bale fans often choose him as second favorite Batman so they can justify the rather low rating for the 2 most "controversial" Batman potrayals. Maybe I'm just overthinking all of this but we all can agree that it's very sad how divided the Batman - fanbase is right now.

[@godphoenix66x]

Mr. Aziz The Keaton fans are some of the most arrogant people I've ever come across. They say Keaton was the best when his portrayal is the worst as compared to the comics. 9 out of 10 times these fools aren't even fans of the comics so their opinions mean nothing. I'm good as long as these fools keep their mouths shut and opinions out.

[@Hunk62]

godphoenix66x I agree, Keaton wasn't that good. And to be honest, I hated Pfeiffer's catwoman. She wasn't even a master thief, just a oversexualized latex-whore. And Penguin was just looking like a fat witch.

[@godphoenix66x]

Mr. Aziz Amen. Don't get me wrong, Keaton is a great actor but he had no business being cast as Batman. The Keaton fans aren't Batman fans. Just fans of Burton's nonsensical style. I've never seen a Bruce Wayne in any comic or video game that reminded me of Michael Keaton. Very bad casting by Burton. If anything Keaton should've been The Joker.

[@SciFifan19]

Heh, I'm surprised I didn't see this video coming. It's a perfect idea. We've seen how Cavill takes up Reeve's Superman legacy, now we get to see how Affleck takes up the Batman legacy that Bale left. Genius, man.

[@THGForever1]

This was awesome my friend, and let me be truthfully honest here. Batman has never really been my favorites of the DC heroes..BUT I LOVE what he stated at 1:35. Way to show the people that anyone can be a hero if they try.

[@TownieGirl1974]

That was the entire message of The Dark Knight Trilogy....

[@THGForever1]

Good to know! :)

[@stfutrolls9098]

I would love to see both Bale's & Ben's batman in a alternate universe crossover movie

[@TownieGirl1974]

I seriously was about to make this same comment. I would soooooo love to see this happen. I truly think it could be done & we are in a time where we have two actors who played Batman/Bruce Wayne so closely together in time & played them so well at that, that it's something that could be done. I think the story would be tremendous. I mean, really, who wouldn't go to see that?

[@dylanjones7011]

Karen Catizone You could also add the tv universe as one of the multiple ones in the multiverse. They could even make a little reference to Marvel...

[@convict240]

batfleck would win

[@mattlemasters557]

Well that's not possible...because Bale's Batman was stupid enough to leave the cave to a complete stranger...

[@oswaldcobblepot9416]

Matt LeMasters, he wasn't stupid. He was leaving the cave because he was retiring and decided to leave it to someone who was trustworthy enough to take on the mantle.

[@lnobrien21]

Wow, I just Watched the Dark Knight Trio 2 days ago for the first time since BVS came out and those are just such well made films. Great Job on this, I can't put into words how well made this was

[@supratimchakraborty4244]

Everything fits so perfectly well, that for a moment I intended to believe, while watching, that Bale & Batfleck falls into the same continuity. Man, I'm online after 6 months, and still I'm speechless, rather mesmerized by your work, as I've been, always. (y) O:)

[@TownieGirl1974]

This. Is. Outstanding. Absolutely outstanding. Thank you for making this.....

[@AdeelofSteel]

Thank you for enjoying it :)

[@OllieConnorsFilms]

Beautiful. Passing the torch!

[@85Aheadstix]

Afflecks Bat is straight out of the comics and games.love it!

[@PinkBat82]

Oh my god it's soooo intense! Hans Zimmer's music is the perfect connection between these movies.

[@michaelbronson4109]

Good stuff, keep it coming.

[@hellboySv]

Best thing i saw today. Just great

[@kashif4125]

One of your bests. Can't get enough of this video.

[@robobrando]

I like that while Bale's flying the nuke out of Gotham city, Affleck's just chillin in the batcave.

[@miguelgarcia-fr2ds]

This is Amazing. Good job!

[@GAFanEdits]

sweet, that's much better. great work!

[@CaptainLunar1994]

You know for this little peace I can't help but picture this as Knightfall and Affleck is Jean-Paul Valley

[@nebulera]

funny how ben's batman makes christian's look like cosplay

[@davbooms]

I never liked Bale that much for some reason, either

[@ibrahimsafwat]

Emperor Psycho cgi? are you on myth or something? watch the warehouse scene then tell me what cgi we're talking about lol

[@thewateversho223gaming]

Emperor Psycho Bale's fight scenes are ridiculously boring. And Affleck's warehouse fight wasn't CG at all.

[@oswaldcobblepot9416]

NJ223Gaming, Christian Bale's Batman was more grounded in reality. He wasn't boring.

[@MachineFuckingHate]

NJ223Gaming, the cape is completely CGI. There are a lot of wirework that was hidden with CGI. And there a lot of CGI sweat when Batman punches someone, to make punches look more powerful.

[@lvpepe38]

Excellent video brother

[@supratimchakraborty4244]

So far, this is your best work yet +Adeel of Steel.... 😇

[@jaykelly6091]

Both of the Batmen are awesome, but Christian will always be number one for me!!!

[@lunettesdurdu4233]

Very good! I love it ! Good work dude !

[@ayurdivate]

Wow really very good man

[@michaelglasgow6523]

This is beyond brilliant work. Its like some short film or something come to life. I do think you should title this the alternate version of your other trailer and not delete the other one(If you're planning to I don't know). Just an idea

[@eugeniawong249]

Holy shit this is so good

[@JWR197]

My God that was beautiful

[@EdwinLegoMovieFan2003]

the dark knight return trailer nice one

[@AshesAriseTW]

Very well done!

[@jamesbui2968]

"A hero could be anyone, even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know the world hasn't ended." "WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME?!!

[@graemesewell1475]

One Word, Brilliant!!

[@eboardlifestyle]

absolutely amazing

[@ShaneOMac716]

Outstanding!!

[@xgray2012]

I hope that Ben Affleck's solo Batman movie does turn out to be a good movie.

[@samakura1000]

''we fight, we kill, we betray one another, but we can rebuild, we can do better, we have to''

[@joeharris4820]

Please make another batman video with Christian Bales batman in it, i love your videos:)

[@SpeedyEric1]

0:08- I was also thinking of Two-Face when he said that.

[@andrewapex9056]

it should be called "The Bat lives"

[@maximuslinnerud5950]

this was actually epic, nice job!!!

[@Russkafin]

Interesting take on it! Expertly edited as always. I like the concept and you executed it well. Thumbs up!

[@supermanisbest]

great job as always buddy!.....just curious do you have any interest in making another reeve/cavill video since the release of dawn of justice? I personally would love to see more if you ever wanted to make more!

[@renansantos6533]

I like both of them :) Ben Affleck was the better Batman, He fights like one, make his own technology, It's scary like the "Goddamn Batman" lol. Ben Affleck even loos like Bruce Wayne XD Christian Bale was the better Bruce Wayne, his character was developed pretty well in his movies and had awesome motivations. I like his Batman too(Batfleck is better imo) but Baleman was the representation of what if Batman was real in our world. People likes to mock his voice, but I think the "Throat Cancer" was a charm of his Batman incarnation lol

[@KING_Misanthrope]

holy fuck dude!! this is awesome!!

[@godphoenix66x]

It would be so funny seeing Bale's Bane fighting Michael Keaton's Batman. Keaton would die in about 10 seconds.

[@chatroomgoon4975]

Oh my fucking god that was fantastic!

[@spiderxand]

Could the DCEU Batman defeat Nolan's Bane? Had to repost my question.

[@TheBlackKakashi]

Batfleck can take on the whole Nolan Trilogy if he wanted to.

[@utoresa5193]

Well he is twice as strong as a professional boxer.Yes.He would beat Nolan's Bane,not very easily but not much trouble either.The better question is..could Batfleck beat the Batman from the Arkham Series? I would say no because in those games you can fight 30 thugs without taking a hit but Batfleck got stabbed when fighting like 8 guys.

[@ShounakSen]

That's probably because Batman is like, 40 in BvS. DCEU Batman in his prime would probably be like the Arkhamverse Batman.

[@utoresa5193]

+Shounak Sen Maybe though I doubt it.Arkhamverse batman ain't young either,I think he was like 39 while Batfleck is 45-46 (as old as Ben Affleck).It's not that big of a gap.

[@irfaans7973]

+Shounak Sen I doubt it cause arkham verse batman is way too unrealistic i mean in the arkham verse he's far from human

[@safarimanxdgonebutnotforgo4951]

Amazing

[@AIRTUBEY]

Very impressive!

[@nicodemustomeo9156]

You made a similar video for Superman right? I think you should make one for Godzilla. Or Spider-Man.

[@supratimchakraborty4244]

If just the directors could turn your visions like these into movies. I'm truly an admirer of your works from a quite long time if you can recall & I'm proud to state that. O:)

[@shaysela6989]

It's a great video, but there's SO much more to the Batman's legacy. There was Michael Keaton, there wasn't Val Kilmer and George Clooney, there was Kevin Conroy (which is many forms of Batman by itself) and SO MANY more great (and not so great) people who voiced the Batman. But yeah, really good video

[@mariacontreras7437]

batman never dies in the dark night

[@samhollinger5054]

What do you use to make this???

[@jayanthkrishna3473]

awesome

[@namesryan50yearsago65]

The legacy of the bat live on...a bigger, faster, stronger and smarter batman for that matter

[@elliotdeltoro3319]

Please The song from 2:00-2:30 It's really beautiful! Much thanks I love epic soundtracks

[@KhairatSafwat]

It's called Aurora. Made by Hans Zimmer. It was made to honor those who lost their lives at the Aurora shootings in July,20th 2012, the same date that matched The Dark Knight Rises Official Release in theaters.

[@elliotdeltoro3319]

+Khairat Kheader Means alot to me getting this response. Much thanks to you friend. Just checked it out. That song is pure Beauty!

[@KhairatSafwat]

+Isaac Acevedo I think so too. It maybe one of Zimmer's finest work. Though I was somewhat heartbroken when I read it was about people who lost their lives during a tragedy.

[@popculture8143]

Cool ,Man)

[@JJDBaca]

Might as well do a video on Kevin Spacey meets Dustin Diamond.

[@efrainjunior2409]

The Real Dark Knights Michael Keaton Kevin Conroy Val Kilmer Christian Bale Ben Affleck

[@ZaberAnsaryOfficial]

Now Imagine if you added the Dark Knight Rises end scene where Alfred finds out that Bruce didnt die... As an end credit to this video...

[@nicocrow1279]

tdk trilogy soundtrack is the best ever.

[@awonddy]

Fuck yeah!!!!

[@rohannagsmart97]

I think you should've waited for his solo movie. You could've got more clips

[@agony0922]

whats the music at 1:32

[@luntertherunter1771]

(Applause)

[@rogerwhittaker4189]

Two Batmen in one film now that's what's up?

[@flash_drive3814]

Lit

[@jacksonjefferson7729]

I love the Dark Knight trilogy but if we are all being honest here Batflecks Left nut could kicks Bales batman ass

[@oswaldcobblepot9416]

Jackson Jefferson, In Batman Begins, Bale's Batman took down 19 thugs in 20 seconds which is way faster than what Ben Affleck's Batman has done so far.

[@ibrahimsafwat]

Oswald Cobblepot in begins the cinematography was awful and you couldn't know what happened during the fight. also bale faced free armed hostiles who didn't carry machine guns, pistols, machetes or even grenades. except only one guy who was shooting randomly through the air. lastly the fight took longer than 19 seconds. the whole fight took more than a minute and a half. only the last part of the fight where bale landed in the middle of falcone's crowd took 19 seconds.

[@oswaldcobblepot9416]

The cinematography was shown that way because Christopher Nolan wanted to add a sense of speed to show the criminals perspective of Batman: too fast to perceive or react to. The fight that I'm talking about is when he jumps down in the middle of 19 of Falcone's men and starts fighting them. Not to mention Christian Bale's Batman actually uses stealth and environment. Ben Affleck's Batman was always just on the ground. 

[@ibrahimsafwat]

Oswald Cobblepot that's what I'm saying and what the majority of the Batfans had said about batman begins. his fast cuts and unorganized fight sequence in that single scene is the problem. Zack had it perfectly done, Fast but extremely detailed and well cut and clear while Nolan wanted the same thing but instead making fast, undetailed and hard to follow. the 3 elements of ( speed, agility and violence) were caught perfectly in bvs and we've noticed that really well. as for stealth, you can't really judge by saying bale has the upper hand. affleck was put in positions were he had to go loud and blazzin. if you really want to witness Affleck's take on stealth then wait for the " The batman " which is releasing in 2018-19. then we can have fair status and enough informations for both encounters to compare between. if affleck hasn't shown his stealthy tactics in bvs that doesn't mean he isn't a stealthy batman.

[@oswaldcobblepot9416]

You don't get what Christopher Nolan was trying to do. He was trying to show how fast Batman can get when fighting from the criminals perspective; fighting so fast that he seems like a blur. Not to mention Christian Bale's Batman was more intelligent and wasn't a mass murdering psychopath.

[@lessermook7608]

Batfleck vs Bane. Batbale knows when to step back and let the brawlers go at it.

[@neonmatt24]

Ben's Batman would have destroyed this Bane lol If they ever have a new Bane he has to be someone that's like 6'8-7'0 280lbs.

[@AKAtheTrueBeliever]

Was your Batman Hurt video deleted??? Wish you could reupload it

[@AdeelofSteel]

IzzyVEntertainment7 it got blocked.

[@AKAtheTrueBeliever]

Adeel of Steel I’m so sorry. Tbh it was my favorite video you made.

[@AdeelofSteel]

IzzyVEntertainment7 thanks. Maybe I could try putting it on Vimeo.

[@AKAtheTrueBeliever]

Adeel of Steel that’s still cool. I’d definitely watch it there

[@AKAtheTrueBeliever]

Adeel of Steel did you have any luck uploading it to Vimeo?

[@clarkconner]

Not bad!

[@MickeyMouse-lw9hg]

¿where's michael keaton?

[@samarthkulkarni2031]

I donnow why I feel in every aspect Batfleck is much badass than the good guy Baleman.

[@ChiefBrodyRules]

That was a weird mashup. Interesting but weird.

[@seejayx736]

Ben Affleck, Christian Bale & Michael Keaton are My Favourite Batman Actors But I Like Ben Affleck More (sorry michael & christian)

[@arvindkumarsharma5793]

Batfleck would have ripped apart bane

[@yourmom-yv2xk]

Michael Keaton?

[@godphoenix66x]

Ethan Joe Nobody is talking about that clown(Keaton). This about real Batman portrayals. Not goofy Tim Burton garbage.

[@Postpunk78]

Afflceks batman could kick this fake bane ass so easily...

[@convict240]

he'll use his grapple gun and be like: COME OVER HERE! and then punch him so that he goes flying and then fall into a random hole in the floor. and if he ever comes back, he'll punch him so that he lands on his face first.

[@MachineFuckingHate]

This Bane have outsmarted half of the world. Affleck's Batman was outsmarted by a newspaper reporter who figured out that Lex is the real villain. Nah... Bane would manipulate his dumb ass and then would break him.

[@godphoenix66x]

Joff Yeah Affleck would have that Bane for breakfast. Would barely work up a sweat.

[@enriquepenanieto7136]
