Michael Keaton Hasn't Seen Any Other 'Batman' Films All The Way Through

Wish the interviewer would stop interrupting Batman.

Yes,Michael Keaton is Batman.Since I was little,I used to watch Batman and Batman Returns all the time on VHS.

Michael Keaton for BATMAN BEYOND as Bruce Wayne

[@nickangelo116]

DarqMassacre I've been saying that for a few years now. Tim Burton must direct if it is to happen. after all, Keaton was offered a third Batman movie, but declined because Burton left the director's chair. Val Kilmer and Joel Schumacher replaced them. Burton only remained a producer

[@pescidavid91]

Sliusarenko I wish we could get a dark night returns style movie with Keaton returning so Burton could make his films a proper trilogy. It'll never happen though but Keatons about the right age to do a story like that

[@Kasterborous1963]

+Sliusarenko Snyder already confirmed that Ben Affleck's Batman is 47 in BvS so he's nearly in his 50s already.

he was a the villain in Robocop's reboot, not sure if that counts.

[@TheMaybach1984]

In my opinion, Michael Keaton played the very best Batman. I see him, I see Batman. No shade on any of the other actors who played the dark Knight but Michael was the right man for the job. At 4 years old, I remember my dad taking me to see Batman in theaters in '89 and it was awesome. Maybe I'm still running off of that highlight in my life and just that special moment with my father and I, sealed the deal for that particular movie. And part 2 was good also,😁

[@patinho5589]

TheMaybach1984 that must have been a very scary film for a 4 year old, wasn't it?

[@PermanentHigh]

TheMaybach1984 You mean you see Bruce Wayne. Because his Batman was cheesy

[@thedude7567]

I thought Keaton's Batman was decent, it was not great.

[@ericwatkins9554]

Me too accept my rate is backwards my number 1 favorite Batman movie is michael keaton 2 batman returns. And my 2nd is Batman the movie 89 2nd. I was 6yrsold when batman returns came out one of my best childhood movie's. It was darker tone and as kid The penguin was scary to me as a child.😅 and catwomen was and extra bonus. Michelle Pfeiffer deserved and Oscar for that role. But yeah I've always favored the TIM BURTON BATMAN FILMS OVER NOLAN'S.

[@rossdiamondthief6627]

In my opinion - Christian Bale was a better Bruce Wayne where’s Michael Keaton was a better Batman.

I would love a third Tim Burton Batman film, with Michael Keaton playing a much older Batman.

[@ericwatkins9554]

Me too i heard that if Tim Burton would've been allowed to do his third film. It would've been TWO-FACE AND SCARECROW. 😞 What could've been i bet you Tim Burton two- face would have been more darker and evil then the one we had in batman forever. That two- face was a wimp letting the riddler boss him around.

[@paulpolpiboon9535]

Rodrigo Forense : I'd love to reply but your grammar made zero sense, (read it back and see for yourself) would you mind repeating it with some cohesion? 7 yr old boys? Didn't kno that the Oscars were for 7 yr old boys, since SUPERMAN the Movie is the only comic film that won an Oscar while none today recieve even a nomination lol. Also i Didn't kno Jack Nicholas and Keaton made movies for 7 yr old boys lol. Dominating Classics and talent might not really be the worlds fault and more of a reflection about you. Not judging tho

[@joekerr1763]

I agree and I've always defended my idea that without Batman '89 we likely would not be where we are with comic book movies today. But that's not to take away anything from Nolan's vision either, he reinvented the genre in itself and repaved what comic book movies went on to be from there.

What makes Batman '89 so monumental is that it was the first. Creating something out of whole cloth is so much harder than following it up. Every cinematic Batman since has emulated it in some form or fashion, whether it be tone, music, how Bruce uses a different voice for Batman, design of the Batsuit, etc.

[@paralentor]

Michael Keaton is so humble for the great actor he is.

[@Automatik234]

Cast him for Batman beyond.

I'd love to see him come back as Batman, sort of like a Dark Knight Returns storyline. Get Tim to direct it. I know it will never happen given the DCEU and everything, but a movie with him as Batman again would be huge.

[@chiefsteps-in-poo6538]

Other actors have tried to play Batman different than Michael Keaton but didn't do the character justice. They knew if they tried to copy Keaton's character one of two things would happen. 1 Fans would criticize the actor for trying to copy Keaton's Batman or (B) Fans would criticize the actor for thinking they could play Batman better than Batman. Seriously, I think Bruce Wayne is disguising himself as Michael Keaton.

[@tkmwong020480]

@@chiefsteps-in-poo6538 There were other actors that tried hard to be Batman, but Michael Keaton portrayed it in a way NO body could do the same. His Blue Eyes stare under the Mask was the most iconic Batman move that Nobody ever came close to doing the same. Plus his deepened voice when he is Batman is just Spot on, not like how some have said the later Batman's voice was digitally altered or a try hard to have a deep voice. Even Keaton's version of the Batmobile looked more like a Batmobile than any of the later versions that looked more like war machines, it had nothing that represents the BAT. If you saw a picture of it before any leaked information about the movie, You couldn't even tell that it was the Batmobile. Keaton's Batmobile is still Fans overall No.1 favourite compared to all of them. Batman is still just a Human Being. He can be a Super Hero, but don't make him seem like on the same level as Superheroes that have Super Powers. Batman Vs Superman may have been visually entertaining but "Come On" Batman can never beat Superman unless he had some Gadgets to take away his Super Powers. Tim Burton has done a Fantastic job at sticking to the Original source and the Dark theme in the movie was absolutely appropriate for the characters. It's just too Bad that many parents especially Mum's didn't like it and the Studio had to change it to a lighter tone, which resulted in Tim & Michael leaving and the Disaster of Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. If they could have stayed, we would've had a Good Trilogy and better Spin Offs with Catwoman and Batgirl. Michael Keaton is still the Best and most memorable Batman, Michelle Pfeiffer is still the Best Catwoman.

Still my favorite Batman. Since I saw the 1989 film in 2012 I’ve loved the entire film, Batman, Bruce, Joker, the acting, story, action, comedy, gothic tone it deserves, especially the music. The original Batman has the greatest Soundtrack to a film to me only rivaled by Avengers, Back to the Future, and Halloween

[@stephfahey1101]

I can't believe this interviewer at the end accused Michael Keaton of all people to be in movies for the pay cheque???? Like WTF???? Everybody knows Michael Keaton walked away from Batman Forever even though the studio tried to keep him by offering him more $$$$ and he STILL walked away because of the crappy script and how they fired Tim Burton. Michael Keaton is Awesome!!! Those 3 movies Beetlejuice and the 2 Batman movies made me love Michael Keaton but its was his decision to walk away that made me respect him and that's why he's my hero. Although being Batman helps ;) Batman 1989 was the first movie I ever remember seeing as a kid.

[@marconobrega]

Yes, you're right. He walked away from the third movie being offered A FORTUNE, which isn't that common in Hollywood. Instead, he starred in Multiplicity (I think that's the name). He though it was a more interesting work for an actor.

Easily. Bale was trying way too hard and his Bruce Wayne was just annoying and dull. The first two films were far better crafted stories, the art direction was amazing and the acting more interesting. Heath Ledger can only hold my interest so much with his quirky take on the Joker, unfortunately the rest of that movie bored the fck out of me.

[@doncorleone4032]

Langford_artist No actor owns a character so do NOT say that Keaton IS batman. Batman I believe is his own person. Men like Affleck, Bale, and Keaton are just actors who r giving love to this character. So if u say that then ur not a true Batman fan. Because I see the character not the actor.

People are going to think I'm crazy for this, but I'd like to see Keaton reprise the role in a sort of 'Dark Knight Returns' kind of storyline. For those who don't know, it was a Frank Miller graphic novel that depicted an aging Batman coming back after retirement. The animated adaptation was amazing, and after watchng it, I thought to myself, 'You know, I don't think Keaton is too old to do something like this.'
