Batman: Gotham Knight

[Damiean Dark]

the way i see (or, hear, to be more appropriate) bale's voice in bb:
bruce wayne is in the early stages of being batman, so his voice sounds kind of rough and odd, but then he improves it.

I know no one wants to hear this But the voice should imo be a natural part of him not a forced thing that needs improving down the line it goes back to the big question is Batman a tool by wayne to scare criminals in BB or is it the dark part of his soul created the day his parents died like in the comics?. In BB imo its most definatly the former a fact that lowers the whole movie for me. Thankfully TDK seems like nearly a completely seperate movie if reviews are accurate.

It makes sense, but it's hard to believe that, in a movie already packed with main characters, they're going to have time to differentiate Ramirez that much from Montoya.

That was my thought as well when I read Nolan's remarks. My best guess is that it's a situation where they didn't want to bring in a character like Montoya if she's not going to be long for this world.

They didn't use Montoya out of respect for the character and for DC. Nolan explained in our interview that if they change a character too much; that if they are no longer representing that character, they need to make a new character.

more thoughts on GK:

I didn't like that most of the stories were man on the street point of view. I prefer stories from the POV of Bats or even a villain. It gets too awkward trying to approximate street kids and the like imo.

The shorts got better as the film progressed. My sister and I found ourselves saying "this is the best one yet..." from about the third or fourth one on. The second to last and the last seem the strongest to me.

Anyone is better then bales awful voice even the guy from JL new frontier was very good and thats just an actor brought in for that animated movie you would think Bale would work on it for TDK, a multi million dollar movie, but it seems this is not the case that great scene with Batman, Gordon and Harvey on the roof arguing was completely RUINED when bale opened his mouth. Its like he has a frog down there .

Well I and plenty of others have enjoyed his Batvoice. Just because YOU don't like it, doesn't mean it's ruined.

I'd have to say the first short was my favorite.

I think if you're honest with yourself, Dave, you'll find that Bale's voice ruins that scene.

If honesty = Bale's Batvoice being bad... then I choose to be a LIAR my whole life.

. I can do without the Bob Kane segment. I know enough about him, his work, and what kind of person he was.

......actualy it was pretty good , it kinda portrayed him as a egotistical blowhard ( claimed to have boinked marilyn monroe ! ) plus name checks finger and robinson - and how many golden age'ers ever got a chance got to milk their creations , or hang out in the playboy mansion ?

Yeah. I read about all of that stuff elsewhere, but it's cool for DC to have done something on him.

Have you seen the villains profile portion? If so, how was it?

Bastardos! No love for The Bookworm either, I'm sure.

Thanks for the info. I actually found the double disc for a decent price. I'll just flip a coin and let that decide which version I get.

heh. heh heh heh.

..... the best thing on either disk - for some reason they put " over the edge " and " legends os the dark knight " from season 4 on disk 2 - who needs disk 1 ?
