I don't really find any of them attractive but I think my main issue is that so far nobody in live action has sold themselves as Bruce Wayne to me. Their Batman I can believe to varying degrees (because of the cowl and the fact he's not meant to be just Wayne in a mask) but nothing has 100% clicked as Bruce Wayne for some reason.

Same. None of them are smart enough.

Probably some of those actors are smart or educated guys, sure. But Batman/Bruce Wayne is supposed to be like, an out of the world super genius and nobody has ever played that realistically. Every Batman is the equivalent of putting glasses and a lab coat on and being like, they're a scientist now, right?

No

SA

I mean I get that Wayne is a super genius pretending to not be one, but like, you gotta be able to play one in the first place, to play one pretending not to be one but have the audience know it's there

I get what you mean with your clarification. I thought that was perhaps what you meant originally! And yes that's along the lines I'm thinking. Bruce Wayne is a smart guy but he presents a different Bruce Wayne in public and I don't think it's ever been sold to me properly. Like, off the top of my head Bale is way too smarmy for my liking for example.

I remember going to see a big special on the 75th anniversary of Batman, and the guy there (Michael Uslan) was one of the big shots involved with the series and he said in his opinion, Michael Keaton had been an awesome Bruce Wayne but a terrible Batman.

We never get to see him as Batman (or even an adult, lol), but David Mazouz from Gotham is by far my favorite live action Bruce. Even with the show's lousy writing, he managed to sell me on how and why this Bruce becomes Batman.

That's because none of them are truely...well, philanthropic. What made animated Batman (and some comic versions) so good is his willingness to help his enemies and reach out.

Most of the live-action Batman films have just been "stop the villian and then wash hands o fthe mess."
