Looks cool except for the 4 wheel drive Batmobile which looks stupid
the first Batman movie was incredibly well done and the acting was terrific. Michael Keaton (where is that guy now?) was a perfect batman for that movie and the joker was terrific.
The second movie had its good moments, catwoman and Devito put in strong scenery chewing performances, and Christopher Walken was his usual nutty self. Michael Keaton managed to make Batman even more twisted and evil
the third movie fell off the map and got into the crazy architecture, Val Kilner mailed in his performance, and Chris O'Donnell promptly fell off of the map after that one. tommy Lee Jones couldn't save the Two Face character and Jim Carey was terrible. It was a badly written and lame movie
The Fourth movie was terrible, It was George Clooney and Dr Doug Ross as Batman, Chris O'donnell managed to make an annoying sidekick so bad that I tried to drink rat poison after seeing that movie. The insanely stupid sets were just done so they could brag about thier CGI and model work. Arnold did the best he could with a terrible script and Umma Thurman was just god awful. Silverstone was cute in tight black rubber, but that was the beginning of the end of her a list acting career. Worst scene in a movie ever when they reprogrammed all of the satellites in order to make a heat ray.
Bale is an incredibly understated actor, his work in American Psycho was underrated and that was due to the watering down of the book which could never be made into a movie (Hey why hasen't anyone made the book 'Chains' into a movie. Now that guy was an artistic killer) If they simplify things its going to be a great movie.
