No Right Answer: Best Batman Ever

[Lord Beautiful]

Michael Keaton. Easy answer and no contest. Christian Bale would be number one except for his stupid growly voice that fucks it up.

My thoughts precisely.

Such a pity Keaton's career went to shit after taking that role, though.

 

[KingofallCosmos]

People, they did westerns last and came up with Back to the Future and Fievel. It's kinda the point.

I love how in all your videos, you pick the most unlikely candidates. Yes, for comic effect, Adam West is the most likely candidate, but he's still acknowledged as a definite Batman actor. But Val Kilmer and George Clooney are THE most forgotten batman actors ever. (In case of Clooney, more like wanting to forget)
I've heard and accepted the arguments for every other Batman, West, Bale, Conory, Keaton, but NEVER Kilmer and Clooney, and that's why I love this show?
Oh, and what's with the product-placement? For reals or just trolling? I don't mind either way, I've never heard of any of the drinks, and it's not like they can affect the integrity of the show. (Oh, Clooney winning was clearly because of his affinities with the soda-companies.)

 

[Alar]

I don't know, but the soda plugging is absolutely hilarious to me.

Well done.

 

[Digikid]

Michael Keaton for sure. Clooney was also good.

Adam west? He was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!

 

[messy]

I fucking love Jones' Soda. Seriously they need to sell it again in England.

Adam West.

 

[Baldry]

I still hate how this is a glorified ad buuuuuuuut it's good...And they're both wrong, Adam West is the only batman.

 

[Krinku]

Adam West all the way! No one can dance better than him!

 

[GeorgW]

Aw man, I was hoping for something like Bruce Wayne or Nightwing...
I'd still say it needs some polish, but you're getting there.

 

[krellen]

So, do you guys actually have a deal with Jones soda, or do you do the blatant product-placement just because it's totally hilarious?

 

[vxicepickxv]

George Clooney is a less bad Batman because Val Kilmer has blue eyes.

Batman has brown eyes.

 

[VanTesla]

In my opinion both of them are Terribly wrong... I would say it is by far Kevin Conroy and Michael Keaton as second.

 

[Sariteiya]

Also Kevin Conroy is the best batman duuuuhhhh.

Awww Yiss. Arkham Asylum (game) Batman in particular, but also Animated Series Batman.

 

[TwikTwok]

The Escapist community has spoken. Kevin Conroy is the best Batman.

 

[cricket chirps]

No adam west? Im sorry but anyone who can play batman as "Seriosly" as he did, in such a campy setting as that show was, is the best batman

OT: sing it with me Adam wessst, aaadam weeesssst, aaaadaaaam wwweesssst

 

[TokenRupee]

I'd say it's close between Kevin Conroy and Micheal Keaton. Conroy comes out on top though. And yes, it probably is nostalgic bias talking, but I don't care.

 

[Treblaine]

Kevin Conroy from both the Animated series AND Arkham Asylum (the game).

But for Bruce Wayne, call me crazy but I think Adam West was best. Cheesy terrible batman, but as Bruce Wayne he was super fly in the way a guy could only be as a man of the 60's.

 

[Aureliano]

And once again we see why making this a real debate would make it a better show: Adam West versus Kevin Conroy.

Fun fact: Adam West is the best. He even rhymes!

 

[Baresark]

Dude, worst debate evar! They debated on who was the best Batman, but chose between the two worst Batmans ever. I hope they aren't serious.

 

[Flunk]

Did they purposely pick the two worst Batmans ever?

This isn't a very funny concept.
