Rises is the last part of the The Dark Knight Trilogy: Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises which have nothing to do with these past incarnations:
Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, and that abomination Batman & Robin. Mr. Freeze: "Alright everyone, chill!" *projectile vomits on monitor*

As much as I hate Batman and Robin, I can’t help but smile and laugh at all its cheesiness, Bat-gadgets, over-the-top fight scenes, colourful settings, and Arnold spouting cheesy puns. It’s good entertainment I tell you . Hell, I would even go so far as saying the fight-choreography (except for some scenes which look obviously wired) in Batman & Robin is better than TDK movies coz we can actually see the super-agile Batman in this George Clooney version. It really is better compared to the bland and slow fight-choreography in TDK & TDKR (IIRC Clooney's Batman can even do a graceful somersault kick in his costumes. That's something Bale's Batman can only dream of). Nolan doesn’t know how to execute an awesome fist-fight/martial-arts (or how to choose a good fight-choreographer at least). That is one thing he can improve as a movie director with time and experience.

Perhaps Nolan wanted to make his batman a more human rather than the peak human comic book version. Even the fight- and trainingscenes in Batman Begins didn't look that good and that movie probably had Bruce at his peak (out of the 3 movies) after his run with the League of Shadows

I don't know where I'm going to put this since there's no Superman/Batman movie thread yet.
We got a new Batman. Quote:

Since it's a knee-jerk reaction for most, I'm gonna wait for photos or a trailer before I make my final judgement.
I know there's one thing that Zack Snyder is consistent with and that's good casting. There must have been something he saw in Ben that we don't see yet.

Micheal Keaton's performance was surprising yeah, but it isn't like this is Affleck's first superhero casting. I guess everyone's forgotten about Daredevil?
I loved him in Good Will Hunting, Sum of all Fears and The Town (along with Jeremy Renner), though. I'm just not sure how Affleck's going to handle being Batman, considering Daredevil. EDIT: Forgot Changing Lanes. He was pretty good in that one, along with Samuel L Jackson.

Someone brought up Chris Evans as an example of an actor who fits a second superhero role better than the first one, and that was an interesting thought. Ben Affleck sucked at being Daredevil, but who knows? Maybe he might just surprise us as Batman, just like how Evans surprised people when he took on the role of Captain America.
Or maybe they just don't like them apples.
