Quote:...Christian Bale was really convincing....Anyone see Bale in 'Equilibruim'? A friend showed it to me before we went to see him as Batman. That's a very cool movie, by the way. Beats all the Matrixes in my opinion.

Whether or not you like it more than the current movie, you will probably enjoy it. The others are....... meh - good and bad points.
I've always liked Batman more than the other superheroes out there, because he's just human, with no supernatural powers, but can still take people down. And especially because he uses cool technological gizmos. Materials with memory, all the way!
For some reason, I also really liked the actor who played the Scarecrow guy; he's so creepy! I didn't find Katie that annoying, but Christian Bale was really convincing.

dejo Wrote:Okay, I saw Batman Begins for the second time today. It was just as great (except for the surround sound cutting out frequently near the beginning of the movie; thank God it was fixed). But I noticed again that when Christian Bale is doing his Bruce Wayne voice (complete with American accent; Bale is Welsh-born and "normally" has a British accent), it sounds awfully familiar. As if there is some other actor whose voice sounds very similar. Has anyone else noticed this too and, if so, have any ideas who that might be? I just can't place it and I don't want it driving me batty (pun intended).

Watch for Micheal Keaton in 'Herbie Fully Loaded'.

The Mad American Wrote:It just hit me today who the actor that plays Doctor Crane and Scarecrow is and where I have seen him before. His name is I believe Cillian Murphy, an Irish actor who up until Batman Begins biggest role was the main character in "28 days later". Took me so long because in 28 days later he has a shaved head and a british accent, in the batman movie he has an American accent, in real life he is Irish so I would make the huge leaping assumption he has an Irish accent.
Btw, if you haven't seen 28 days later it gets a very high recommendation from me. A different take on the end of the world/Zombie movie.

The aggressive zombies were horrible. But that movie's finale was wonderful.
