Actually Bale does look more athletic. Do you see thick footballers nowadays? Do you see thick marathon runners nowadays?

Is Usain bolt not lean? Messi? Ronaldo?

See Ronaldo's lean muscles. Ogbeni, give up

Check out the beast, yohan Blake

Unfortunately, I believe that boxing is not an art.

I prefer UFC.

Size matters a lot in boxing. If Deontay Wilder was 5 inches shorter, he would be a useless boxer.

Deontay has no skills yet he could beat the 2 most skilful heavyweight boxers in the world. Ortiz and fury. Boxing is dead.

Even Lomanchenko lost to a professional cheat called Solido.



If Kobe is short he would be a useless basketballer.

Guys both Affleck& Bale are great actors but just as Beorn said, its the superior storyline that made Bale stand out, in comparison to Affleck performance. Both are great, but what you have to understand is that both represents Batman at two different stages of his life,Bale being a younger version while Affleck an older version. While Bale's Batman seemed like the epitome of his characteristic was because Bales Batman was young & still believes that there is good in everyone while Affleck's version of Batman is older experienced version who understands the line between justice & crime & Affleck also had a less avenging spirit of vengeance and was more of an armchair vigilante.

Bales Batman was able to own the the character because Bale had a number of Batman movies to call his, unlike Afflecks' Batman that doesn't have a superhero movie to call his as he kept on sharing the spotlight with other superheroes, basically, he never really gets to take full ownership of the character, BVS was with Supes & WW & JL was way worst, its kinda difficult to be a definitive Batman when you’re not the sole superhero.

For now, I strongly give it to Bale, but if in the near future, Affleck is to be given the kind of opportunity( a superior standalone storyline) Bale got, there is no disputing that he's going to be the better Batman.

Two Jokers in one picture...

I don't know how good the new Joker film will be....but I know that Joaquin Phoenix will deliver a stunning performance as the clown prince of Gotham.


Plot twist....Joaquin Phoenix's Joker was the father of Heath Ledger's and he is the one that gave him the facial scars he had in Dark Knight shocked

False. Short and tall people can be really good basketballers. The most skilful baller is not even tall. Hot sauce or even professor.

If kobe was 5 inches shorter, he would still be able to play well. It wouldn't affect his shooting or passing in the least bit

Bullshite. Bale has always been a better actor than Affleck. Affleck can never ever be a better Batman

Bale is the master of brooding. Brooding being Batman's natural state. Just look at his work in Equilibrium.

He looks older, but pretty much the same as before. That curly hair and weak chin of his are unmistakable.

Fun, funny superhero movie. It was actually silly at some points but it was funny. There were plot holes and certain overused tropes but the fun will just make you happy

7/10

Ermm... no. Ben "my hot wife dumped me" Affleck cannot act for sh*t. His younger bro is by far a much better actor. And btw, since when can you foretell the future? Affleck and DC parted ways for a reason, you know? Ben "fat boy" Affleck told the media he quit, but everyone with their heads not jammed up his fat ass are aware that DC dumped him.

I know he's got screen charisma, but don't let that trick you into believing he's talented. He's not. His bro is the real talent in the Affleck family.

Lol..well Bale is a great actor, probably one of the finest. That end statement of mine was strictly a movie postulation by me based on the works of Afleck I've seen soo far. Considering that darkness, trauma, that kinda arrogant maniac moody personality, that fascist personality Batman/Wayne's character has towards other heroes, it's basically safe to theorize that Ben would not only be perfect for a standalone movie but will do great & probably better than Bale. The bolded probably because I've seen quite a number of Afleck movies were he exhibits most of the aforementioned traits in full gear, thus, it's safe to say he's gonna be awesome.

And with the aforementioned traits of Batman/Bruce Wayne's character, listed above, someone here was suggesting that Scott Adkins could actually fit into the Batman/Bruce Wayne character.. Hmm.........

I know he's got screen charisma, but don't let that trick you into believing he's talented. He's not. His bro is the real talent in the Affleck family.

First, IMO, it isn't good comparing brothers against each other. Anyway, you're probably saying this because Ben hasn't won an Academy Award in the best actor category, a feat which his young sibling achieved in 2017, and him winning an Academy Award in the aforementioned category, truth be told is quite implausible. Nevertheless, what am trying to say is, it doesn't matter to me, that stage charisma of his is just ok for me.
And to put this out here, there are two types of act that qualifies one as being a great actor/actress, The first one being the ability of the actor to completely transform himself to the character he plays thus guaranteeing totally believability of the character he plays in the eyes of the audience. This is the standard for great acting.
Then the second one(although not popular) is dependent on the star power of that actor which is mainly based on charisma plus good acting. Not only Ben falls in the later, big shots like Dwayne Johnson also falls in this category.
