Unfortunately nobody really dies in the comics. :)

Given that Daredevil is essentially a blind Batman, I think we’ve already seen this movie. Feh.

I couldn’t find any info on his character. (I checked imdb)

I assume it will be another CGI type action flick.

American Psycho was great as well.

In hindsight, he may have been the best one although Bale wasn't bad. Keaton was a good Bruce Wayne.

Affleck? Better than Clooney for the role, but not much. I'll skip it.

I’m sure the special effects will be wonderful.

But movies like RoboCop are built on the emotion of hate. The slimy monster business man. And in the end when he is blown into dust we all get an emotional release.

Really it is sick.

We all are, just to varying degrees. I’ll probably see it too.

Keaton was good, I thought. Of all of the movies I think I like “Batman Returns” the best.

Bale was good too.

Kilmer and Clooney, not so much. Though the scripts for their movies were terrible and an abortion, respectively, so I don’t think casting mattered much. The Clooney one is easily one of the worst pieces of crap I ever saw. You would have to pay me to sit through it again. The Kilmer one, not good at all either, decent only in comparison.

next to the current Batman(Bale), I like Keaton best. good dry wit, though physically not imposing.

I also liked Kilmer, in the role. though his Doc Holiday was the best role he will ever have.

George Clooney was the absolute worst....and the batfilm he was in was the absolute worst.

Snyder successfully re-imagined the origin of Clark Kent/Superman in the worldwide blockbuster “Man of Steel,”

I've seen that film at least twice. Did Kal-El not come to Earth from Krypton? Did he not assume the identity of Clark Kent?

How was Superman's origin 're-imagined'?

Arrrgh! Sorry. I was confusing it with the film “Superman Returns” with Brandon Routh. I’ve yet to see “Man of Steel”. Is it any good?
