Love how he just whips out a tape measure and just starts doing math… OLD SCHOOL BATMAN!!!
I loved that called back
That's practical shi you don't see often in superhero things
@@user-pm6nx1fs2wThey try to make superhero movies too realistic imo
I loved that reference too
What is the tape measure reference?
As many problems as this movie has in so many areas, Michael Keaton certainly was far from one of them. He carried this movie on his back
I thought it was a great film, aside from the annoying new Barry.
The main problem this movie has is the bad cgi. The plot, characters, and action are all pretty good. This movie isn’t terrible as a lot of others make it out to be.
@@CruelPizza213 We really get to see that this movie can be great, with fine adjustments. It's almost tangible
@@CruelPizza213 I thought it was a lot of fun. Obviously the CG in some parts was simply terrible. My only other complaint is just the feeling of losing you know? Like Batman, 2 Flashes, and Supergirl go up against Zod and while I know the odds are slim they could win it felt unfinished or something because they simply lost no matter how many times Barry 2 tried to win.
@@basedsoothsayer I think the final battle should've been in Metropolis, and Dark Flash needed to be present in the the battlefield. Those are my only problems tho.
My uncle (who's in his mid 40's now) told me when he went to watch this movie in cinemas with his son, he felt like he was 10 years old again seeing Keaton in the batsuit. When he heard the Danny Elfman theme play, he told me he was in damn near tears as he thought he'd never hear that theme again with Keaton as Batman in a DC movie! That's the sort of connection Keaton's Batman had on 80/90s kids. Keaton coming back to him is what Garfield and Toby meant to us when they made their comebacks in Now Way Home.
That’s amazing! I’m glad you’re uncle had a good time with the movie. There’s just something about things from the past that we enjoyed as kids and suddenly coming back years later, as if to say “hey guys, I’m back. Just like old times. Let’s have some fun” and sharing that nostalgia with the next generation.
Im 39 and grew up with Keaton as well and your uncle is right. The feelings of tears seeing him again and with the theme is spot on. Every aspect of his portrayal here is very spot on. Im glad kids of this generation got to see why we love him so much.
sorry but that's kinda cringe
I was also 10 when I saw Batman in 89 at the theater. Seeing him as Batman again took me back.
@@mbank3832ah yes, emotions are cringe. Fuck outta here bruh
I grew up with Michael Keaton's Batman. As a kid, he WAS Batman to me. Seeing him again in The Flash do things he couldn't do 30 years ago and fighting kryptonians without protective armor or kryptonite and still managing to defeat some was something I never thought I would see. Andy Muschietti reminded me why Michael Keaton is still a legend as Batman.
Seeing him stay on his feet until the Kryptonian went down…oof. I get chills every time.
@@GP.RecordsYeah. Chills from a retarded kids movie
Same and if you watch invincible it reminds me of a certain fight but Batman goes out like a champ instead of a punk who yelled as he tried to surprise attack someone billions of times stronger and faster than him.
One thing I liked about this movie (despite finding it not very good overall), is the fact that they nailed the fact that batman is a human beng fighting superhumans. He is insanely skilled and very smart, but he is still fighting creatures that one shot him.
agreed. He was live action batman, and Kevin Conroy was the voice of batman. Also, these scenes with him fighting just felt so much like batman from the arkham games in live action. Perfectly done.
Michael Keaton is 71 years old now. They knocked him for being “too old” to play Batman back in ‘89 yet here we are.
His age wasn't an issue in '89. His size/frame, his receding hairline, and the fact that back then, he was known as a comedic actor not a dramatic actor were the things fans at that time were concerned about.
@@halamander1112 Keaton is a short king for sure. But so much damn charisma, he feels bigger than life.
@@rabd3721 I was referring to how Keaton was regarded back in the eighties.
They never complained about him being too young they complained about him be two short with no muscle
72 now. :D
Can we all appreciate that in Man of Steel the Kryptonians basically rolled the US Military but this version of Batman managed to take down two scout ships and bring one of them down one on one.
They were gunships, not scout ships. The scout ship is the big one that Clark found in Canada and was the Fortress of Solitude for a time till Zod stole it and then had crash in Metropolis
Yes bro
You read my mind 👍
Batman never disappointed us ❤❤
Don’t you know, he’s Batman!
Michael Keaton’s return as Batman was the one and only reason why I saw this movie in theatres. He was the best thing about this movie. The way he portrays Batman in here is like he never left. ❤🦇
A lot of people said Keaton’s Batman was the only reason they watched the movie. So imagine how much worse it would’ve done in box office if Keaton wasn’t in the movie.
@@sonicfan9144 The theaters were still empty & it flopped bad even with Keaton so yeah without him it would have been worse & thats crazy
thats why keaton was and will be the best batman there ever was, thats why he's a LEGEND
Who cares
@@noth7ingNot you obviously
Keaton's Batman is like Reeve's Superman, pure classic!
I literally cried when I saw Christopher Reeves' Superman cgi'd. I felt like that kid back in the 80s when I saw him in the role for the first time. I miss that idealistic girl so much, n the one true Superman for me. We miss u still, Christopher.
Take note that this version of Batman managed to make Gotham crime free to the point where he got bored.
Keaton’s Batman gave zero fucks for virtue, he was out for blood especially when he found Joker (aka Jack Napier) was the one who murdered his parents.
Right
And that, for me, is a much better ending than every other Batman where he's just endlessly fighting crime. He deserves the rest~
He's one of batman who don't hv dat non kill rule, so yeah, there's not much story to tell coz they already dead🌚
bro made it basically made a NYC from the 1970s and 80s to the safest city in the world, DAMN
this is the type of fighting style that i always wanted to see from batman. agility, master of martial arts, straight beast
Batffleck is beast too.
@@vencislavgynev8282 bruh, no Pattinson or Bale fans are mentioning them. No one cares about the others, we are talking about Keaton
@@vencislavgynev8282 yeah i liked how they had him doing more fighting evolving being more flexible
@@vencislavgynev8282but he is younger.
It doesn't matter whether it's afleck,Patterson or one of my personal favs Christian bales..but Keaton's batman is on another level, people talk about prep time, batkeaton is a beast without any prep time or knowledge of his opponents weakness, this alone should show you that the OG BatKeaton is extremely tough mentally and physically
I think they should seriously consider Michael Keaton to play Batman one more time he's just a perfect fit for it
When you hear Danny Elfman theme 00:58 - 01:14 , fans must be yelling in their homes or theather.
Well he was supposed to be in the cancelled Batgirl as her older mentor, and at the time, he was going to replace Ben Affleck and Keaton's Batman would become a Nick Fury type character. Of course after Batgirl was cancelled, many films flopping in DC, and plans to reboot everything for DCU, they changed the original ending for Flash that was gonna set up the exact movie that got cancelled. So they basically had to reshoot the ending with Clooney so they don't give false hopes of setting up movies that clearly wasn't gonna happen.
Honestly, I would have much preferred a stand alone Keaton Batman film. A film focused on him at this point in time would have been phenomenal. He was excellent in this and I found the other heros to be a complete distraction.
Absolutely. Basically the "Batman Continues" that we never got. Then it could've ended with a teaser for Batman Beyond.
@@KamenRider1 Damn, Batman Beyond would be an amazing sequel. I'd love just one full length Keaton film (so they dont milk it dry) then tie into Batman Beyond at the end. Imagine a Batman Beyond film with the look and vibe of the live action Ghost in The Shell film. I'd be blown away if they found the right writer, director and cinematographer.
All of us would
@@DANRYXBatman Beyond sucks ass
@@XiphiasX10A apparently Denis Villeneuve has expressed interest in a Batman Beyond film recently. That could potentially be the most epic in-scale Batman film of all time if he does it.
I love how strong they made him in this, he’s moving like Arkham Batman and I absolutely love it
Experience
Yo I was just thinking that this looked straight out of Arkham especially the soilder fight
Yeah, very agile but his punches and kicks are heavy but accurate.
Never played the game but I felt like I was watching animated batman irl. . It felt magical. Like this is what was missing from most newer batman movies. . A completely unrealistic Chad set of movements that makes u think. Yea I can't do that... Today, but give me a week or two and Ill be flexing all the same
Arkham "Batman", you mean "Man", right?
You can tell they had a blast showing us Batman with not only an already developed character, but an actor who completely understood his Batman. Bale played him 100% serious and grounded, but Keaton had a certain humor and timing that goes well with an over-the-top superhero movie.
The Keaton Batman was exactly the kind of light hearted character the overly serious, self righteous, snyderverse needed.
Bale was ridiculous with all the yelling and stiff, predictable, horrible fighting.
@@Charismaniac I understand they wanted to show us something new, but I agree the style (KFM, a martial art that came and went) combined with the editing gave us some horrendous fight scenes. Only Bane in Dark Knight Rises had some cool and brutal moves.
Jesus Christ died for your sins on the cross. Repent and believe in him or you will be separated from God The Father for all eternity and face hell forever, for all eternity, never ending
@@CharismaniacBale was cool af
The Batman scenes truly are a love letter to the 1989 Batman film - Michael Keaton repeating many of the iconic lines and even the same score. Very moving nostalgia.
00:58 - 01:14 Danny Elfman 🎉 plus M. Keaton, shivers down the spine.
Nice joke
All we need was Catwoman
Credit where it's due. 2:11 This is a perfect shot. Ten uninterrupted seconds that starts wide and goes to medium so you can see and appreciate the choreography, which is crisp and has a fun rhythm to it. More fight scenes should be shot like this.
Reminds me of afflects warehouse scene
Just wish we could just have one more Batman film with Michael Keaton. This clearly shows people want this.
SAME. Sadly with this movie flopping big time and the new Warner CEO in scorched earth mode, I don't think it will happen again.
@@pandareemyyes... Because those idiots in WB never identified real actual problems so they instead kill what worked.
I’d love to see The Dark Knight Returns in a live action version with Keaton as Batman.
@@pandareemynew ceo kno what their doing tho unlike the idiots before copying marvel
Yes
This version of Batman could absolutely keep up with the rest of the Justice League.
yeah since his physical capabilities are closer to comic book batman
@@DinkusDorf Ben Affleck's Batman had that too. But Keaton's is also a gadget-slinging machine, armed and armored to the teeth.
@@DinkusDorf Ben Affleck's Batman (minus the killing part) is also a really good representation of comic Batman's physical capabilities. However, this specific version of Keaton's Batman we see in The Flash is exactly the type I want to see when it comes to a version of Batman that's part of the Justice League. Especially with how he uses his gadgets.
@@gibleymanbro Keaton and affleck are literally the best batmen. Keaton is iconic and affleck is the most comic accurate
@@danieldickson8591same as Batfleck...seems like even past the prime, Batman still has it in him to keep fighting and kicking ass
Danny Elfman's theme is and will forever be the Batman theme
01:11 Screaming mode 💪
The scene when he free falls and the iconic 1989 Batman theme song comes on gave me chills. Bringing back nostalgia of watching Batman as a 7 year old kid.
Seeing Michael Keaton one last time as Batman was by far one of the best things that happened in cinemas for a long time. Never thought I would see him as Batman again and boy he was awesome. His posture, his fighting style, his unique way of playing Batman. Simply unique. As someone who grew up with Michael Keaton as Batman I would love to thank him personally to come back to cinemas as Batman one last time.
X 2
I loved seeing Keaton back as batman again, he carried the whole movie for sure. I'm just bummed that since the movie performed poorly at the box office that they cancelled the batman beyond movie they were going to make with him
No way that was him fighting lol
Yeah but that wasn't really "him" was it? Every shot of his body is either a bunch of younger performers or CGI. You rarely see his face and when you do it looks odd!
Yeah seeing Michael Keaton kick all sorts of ass as Batman in this movie made the admission worth it and kinda made up for the cringefest that is the non-Batman parts. Ezra Miller's Flash is at best a side character
I hope Michael Keaton doesn’t think people didn’t wanna see him back as Batman cause of the flashes poor performance. He was absolutely amazing! The movie just had other issues
Absolutely 0 chance he could think that
He was actually the reason why i watched this movie, if people told me that i was only going to see batman, i would've been even more hyped...
Ezra is the problem
2:35. I appreciate the subtle expression of enduring pain in Batman's face and body language while protecting Flash from the storm of bullets. It reveals that, while the projectiles themselves are being stopped, their high kinetic energy still needs to being absorbed. The cape and armor will absorb some of it, but the remainder is being absorbed by Batman himself.
So that’s why he was twitching
even after like 30 years Keaton still hasn't lost his touch what a legend.
I loved how much they had him glide in this movie, and I loved that they made his cape bulletproof
Yeah, it was plausible, the material just absorbs the bullets like reinforced leather/Kevlar weave.
Still hurt like hell I bet. Just makes Keatons Batman more bad ass and tougher.
@@ericleonkingery9229cgi Batman too strong
I love that detail and wonder why no other director of any previous Batman film thought of this. Since John wick wears a bulletproof suit. No reason for Batman to not have a bulletproof cape.
They had no other choice but to amplify his capabilities matching the comic counterpart. A 70 year old man dressed up as a bat better pull some tricks otherwise he’s dead meat. His gliding and bulletproofing made him seem more enhanced.
Man I really did miss this guy. Michael Keaton really should have been in a third movie as Batman.
Uh he is it's called the flash
@@joshuakeely5593 I'm Talking about Batman. Not the Flash!!!
@@megalon73 yes I know but at his age you may have to be content with this
@@joshuakeely5593 We supposedly were going to get a lot more of him and was going to be the main Batman of the DCEU going forward. Before James Gunn came in.
@The_Based_Batman tbf I don't trust WB to have done anything good with it. I'd rather watch a good movie then an eh movie but "hey atleast Keaton was amazing"
Christian Bale might have gotten the physical aspect of Batman in terms of combat and playboy aspect of Bruce Wayne but Michael Keaton got the personality and mannerisms of Batman. This is why Michael Keaton will always be my favorite Batman.
I swear Michael Keaton just embodies being back in the Batman role. Despite how he looks a little silly in the cowl at his age, there was a sense of honor he gives off as he stands and walks while wearing the Batsuit; I felt like I wanted to salute him like an old veteran back in uniform half the time. Also, it's awesome seeing '89 Batman fight BvS Warehouse style. Even if the CGI isn't entirely perfect such as when he flips or glides, I thought his fight scene showed the full potential of the Michael Keaton's Batman fighting compared to how awkward and stiff he moved at times in the Tim Burton movies. Even as Bruce Wayne, you really feel the duality he has with both being tired from the old hero act after many years but also getting a thrill out of being back in the game. Overrall, I enjoyed The Flash (2023). Despite the clunky effects and mess of a screenplay, I enjoyed this movie for its creative moments with time travel, the fun action, the great performances and the genuinely emotional moments.
I wonder how many people watched this movie solely for Keaton. Dude is probably the most legendary Batman to ever do it (aside from Conroy, god rest his soul.)
Not gonna lie I did , when the theme song played I got crazy goosebumps
I would be completely indifferent to this movie if it wasn't for him in it. So awesome to see him come back as Batman and Beetlejuice again next year. 😁
Conroy is overrated.
@@fxmorin439 that’s your opinion
@@anaxemurderer5094 Yes it is. And I'm not the only one with it. But that's the thing with opinions. We're all free to have one and express it.
Him knocking out the giant kryptonian even briefly was a huge feat
And taking down 2 ships with one baller move ⛹️
I don't understand what kills him when he's ready to go another round with the giant. Internal bleeding? Is he just running on adrenaline?
@@Dan-hc1ow indeed. As great as Batman may be, he’s mortal. “A good death is it’s own reward” to take a quote from Man of Steel
@@Dan-hc1ow he went out like a beast!! 😁
@@Dan-hc1owHe was hit by a plane, armor and adrenaline kept him so long after that.
damn michael keaton batman fights like an athlete!
That shot with the Batwing in the background over the moon is badass.
Yesmommy it was!
When I heard danny elfman’s theme I got chills in the theater. Keaton and the filmmakers did a really good job with Batman
🎉Agreed! ! Keaton is the best.
No bale is!
Keaton's BATMAN actually kiIled some bad guys, which is awesome. BATMAN is sometimes forced to kill scumb@gs
@@splawnrobertIt sure as hell makes him a more frightening figure. Much more scary when you’re not certain that he’s going to let you live.
Can still kick ass without having to move his neck. This is why I love Michael Keaton’s Batman
imagine moving his neck.. so much possibilities 😁
I think Michael Keaton’s batsuit is probably too tight on him
Funny thing is, the suit clearly allows him to turn his neck, but he's just so used to it like in the first 2 films where he couldn't, that he just moves like that from instinct. I kinda love that.
@@ZackaryBiagi its more likely a direct choice to have keaton not move his neck
@@ZackaryBiagi They actually told him he had free range to move his neck with the new Batsuit and he said no to that. He felt very strongly about keeping the stiff neck thing. Keaton felt it was an important part of his Batman.
I grew up with Michael Keaton as Batmsn. He will always be my favorite Batman! He's still so sharp and charismatic.
I hope that Michael Keaton knows how great this was for the fans. I hope doesn't regret doing it, because that was awesome!
He's far more agile than Bruce was in Batman Beyond.
He was older, and he still kicked asses all the time, so..
No shit
He was walking around with a cane in beyond, no shit lmao
Bruce was still quick in the pilot episode but not when they fast forwarded 20 years into Terry's timeline.
In the Beyond pilot. Batman is 65-70 years old. He should have stopped long before, but he couldn’t stop. He was very fit for his age, but he had a leg wound from Joker (from the Beyond movie’s flashback) that never healed completely. He also had a heart condition caused by using a mech suit that was way to taxing for him. When training Terry he’s 85-90 and the Joker wound got worse, hence the cane. Keaton-Batman should be at the same age when DCAU Batman retired.
All I thought whilst watching the Flash was “I wish this was a Michael Keaton Batman trilogy movie”. Epic - the director nailed his scenes. If wasn’t for these scenes, the flash is a bang average movie.
It's pretty much a Batman movie. It has a little arc for both Batmen and it has a sort of conclusion for the Batman in general. It should have definitely be called "Batman Flashpoint". That way people would have showed up more to see it.
would've
Good news: This film's director is making The Brave and the Bold.
@@different_stuff corrected - thank you, needle-dick.
@@thestarkknightreturns Naa - it’s a flash film with a 40min Batman part for nostalgia baiter’s like me.
while I do wish they did a flashpoint with a reverse flash and thomas wayne batman, it was amazing seeing keatons batman again!!! hes one of my favourites and i grew up watching his batman ! the 89 batmobile is one of my favourites still and i remember i went to six flags one time and there was a replica of the 89 batmobile and i cried seeing it in person, so seeing keaton again as batman, but this time with more of everything, the fighting, the music, the gadgets, the batwing and the grapple hook, was perfect and is one of the reasons why the movie did alright, because everyone came to see KEATONs BATMAN!
Keaton was the reason I saw this in the theater and he destroyed my expectations I mean he was PHENOMENAL man
The way he stood up at the end after being fatally injured is exactly what Bruce Wayne is. His character and the Batman never surrender or give up. This was quality. I know it’s only pretend…
Is that what he died of? Being slammed on the ground by nam ek?
@@kevinbatfan1989 I think so. It seemed that way but I could be wrong.
His death only makes sense if shrapnel from the explosives going into Namek went into him. If he died from being thrown it doesn't make sense. Had to be shrapnel from point blank range. As great as this scene was, the edit/cut was poorly done.
@@frankazareloiii9035 it’s not very clear is it? You are probably right.
@@frankazareloiii9035 so Batman died by his own hand then?
The sooner Michael Keaton and Tim Burton get together and create an older wiser batman movie, the better. Loved seeing Keaton in the bat suit again!
Hopefully Batman Beyond
Dark Knight Returns adaptation would be great.
He was supposed to be the lead to the rest of the DCEU and replace Affleck's Batman. Although he and Affleck's would appear in Aquaman 2, and then the scrapped Batgirl had Keaton's Batman once again continue on. However, fans were actually furious about him replacing Affleck's Batman. But with James Gunn taking control and starting over, plans with Keaton taking over the DCEU wasn't ideal, as well as Michael Keaton stating he also doesn't want to continue more comic book movies which I can understand. And scenes with Keaton and Affleck's Batman in Aquaman 2 were cut all together, knowing they didn't want any false hope for fans considering the movie was supposed to come out before The Flash and obviously setting up future DCEU movies with Keaton's Batman.
Tim is busy with Wednesday Netflix recently. Don't think he ever think of Batman to this day and age. If we ask him about batman, he would be like 'Oh i did that 3 decades ago, it was cool' end of conversation lol.
@@amy_yoshikawa yea until they offer him a couple more millions then he would say ''yes batman lets do it Wednesday can wait till next week ''
God, seeing classic batman with advanced/modern choreography and effects is epic af
I saw that “How Much Do You Weigh” line coming and i throughly enjoyed it. Great call back to his first Batman movie
Say whatever you want to say about this movie , but this is probably the first time Batman is shown in his full glory on live action. Utilising every gadget in his disposal , fucking superhuman strength and agility , tossing people around while gliding with his cape. Basically the batman from animation and comics we all are used to see.
And games
BvS warehouse scene was the first time I ever felt satisfied with a batman fight in live action
Have you never seen Ben Afflecks batman?
And he is retired and past his prime yet he is kicking ass
you mean the punisher?@@Batvolle
Even after 30 years, he's the best Batman! ❤
The only and the Best.
No
@@apexatrovinator7510 Yes
One of the best sure, only best batman? Absolutely not.
@@amy_yoshikawano he’s THE BATMAN. I don’t think gen z would know
When the theme song kicks in you know it's about to get fun
I grew up with Michael Keaton's Batman. Seeing him in action again is just beyond exciting for me. 😊😊
I love that he still moves like he did in the originals. May seem a bit robotic but I like to look at it as intentional movements lol
It was intentional... I watched a special feature talking about how they made the cowl So he could actually have movement in it and he told them...No...i can't do that and said that it has to be the "Bat turn or lean" as it was in the two original films... So they went back and made stiffer cowls
@@craigwhitley1529 Hilarious if that's true!
@@Menaceblue3 Well, it's an interview with the costume designer and it is on youtube so I believe him
@@craigwhitley1529 Thats awesome. It looks intentional. you don't make him an old man ninja and move like that. also felt like a throwback to the old uncomfortable costumes
@@craigwhitley1529 Michael Keaton is a goddamn legend.
it's actually insane that this 70 year old Batman actually scales off of the significantly younger Batfleck. In Keaton Batman's prime he would demolish Batfleck if he can do this shit at 70 years old - Takes down an entire battalion of highly trained spec op soldiers guarding a base while baby sitting 2 Flashes - Still strong enough to ragdoll full grown men in heavy gear across room and through windows - While his suit is bullet proof, is able to handle the impact of the hundreds of bullets his suit tanked - Took out several Kryptonian ships with ease, all while using a Jet that could easily be 30+ behind on tech - Went one on one with a Kryptonian that was strong enough to contend with Cavill's Superman, had no prep time, and knocked him out
I suppose This Batman have not 70 yo (Keaton is 70 Old, ok). But is canon that this Batman is 30 years oldest than the first movie, And in BATMAN Bruce Wayne was in his 30. I can say this Batman in Flash is canon 60 yo
No, no, no. Batffleck will mive through him like tank through class wall.
@@gialactusfighterzpsn7527 well actually in cannon for his world he was born in 1950 so he's 73
make that 73
@@vinniequick nope: This Batman moves in 2013, the year Zod arrives: 63
They updated how this version of Batman moves with a bit more agility, but they still kept his fighting and spin kicking style from the 89 film. Loved it.
Yeah...from what I recall the original Batman suit was very restrictive so it looks like they made a bit more flexible (but not too much so it closely resembles the '89 version).
in 1989 Michael Keaton is THE Batman
Good to see the 1980s Batman get the effects it deserves 🦇
Hell yeah!
KEATON IS THE ONE REAL BATMAN
I love his mastery of his gadgets, unlike the batman we saw before in the big screen his gadget use during the fight was so fluid and immaculate that its almost an art when he uses his gadgets
To his credit, the last Batman we saw was a younger Batman in his 2nd year, still figuring out how to be Batman. Keaton’s Batman has decades of experience under his belt, naturally he’s gonna be more experienced with his gadgets.
Experience
I went back and watched the first two Batman movies with Micheal Keaton and I must say he is a really really underrated Batman. To carry the Flash movie the way he did at his age is stupendous
"This might hurt." He's definitely talking about his knees and back
I love the contrast between Michael Keaton’s Batman and Ben Affleck’s. Ben Affleck’s is more heavy duty and mechanical while Michael Keaton’s is fast and athletic. Both are great and loved the differences. Shame it wasn’t longer.
I don’t if it’s just me but between the two actors Keaton looks healthier.
did you watch bvs or no? he was literally moving like arkham batman. this is for real a stupid comment
@@killmeee6768 lol Dude, why the aggression? Chill. It's just a movie.
Ben affleck is op as batman
@@killmeee6768 Not really, Affleck is a very heavy oriented Batman, his movements are not very athletic they're more focused on weight and strenght, ofc he isn't slow per se but Keaton is far more athletic in this movie
Still the best Batman in my opinion! WB really need to give Keaton his third Batman film, Batman Beyond. It’s a missed opportunity if it doesn’t happen!
DC fans say that - and then don’t show up to the films
Tim Burton can still do Batman movies just do the in animated fashion, and he can either do them in good old fashioned hand drawn 2D animation or stop motion like Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride.
Yes!! Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck were the best bits of the Flash.
The dumb fans should have come to see this one, as a Batman Beyond movie was depending on the Flash's success.
Oh absolutely 😃
Michael Keaton my introduction to the DC and Marvel Comics movies he was my everything❤❤❤😢😢😢😊😊😊😊
We can all agree that the only reason we saw the flash was because of Micheal Keaton
God, this legend was missed
The way they made him move in this movie was SICK. I don't even care if it isnt consistent with the 89 film. THAT is Batman action right there
Perhaps it's not...after all Batman 89 was early in his career. Throughout the years his abilities would have become even more devastating.
@@robertnahum5823beat me to it. Keatons Batman understands the importance of constant improvement. That’s what makes him epic in this film- we are seeing the rewards of a hard earned career as Batman
I think it’s because now they have the technology to accurately portray Keatons fighting skills.
This is just awful. Those were all CGI animated scenes
@@JNST2023 womp womp
This is the kind of fighting style we need to see in batman live action movies!!!!
Michael Keaton is the greatest batman period. Look at his performance and gizmos and his charisma. I've been watching movies a long time and I can see a great actor in comparison over the year's. Wish he was in his prime but we all age! ❤you MK.
Michael Keaton's Batman is a huge part of my greatest childhood memory of my dad taking me to the theater to see Batman in 89 when I was 4 years old. I still remember the drive there at night with me being so overjoyed with being with my daddy and talking his head off lol. He took me twice with the first time watching it in it's entirety which was amazing and second time with the both of us falling asleep. I think of Batman, I think of Michael Keaton and those moments with my dad all rolled up in one. My favorite Batman will forever be Mr. Michael Keaton. I get choked up every single time I recall those moments ♥
I agree with You. I was very excited with his fighting scenes and moreover, with he on board on the Classic Batwing.
@@davidtorres5500 Yes indeed 🔥
Did you see the flash with your dad?!!
I went with my parents in 1989 too. On the way back, we walked through an alley...
@@roywall981roywall is just the mask...
Michael Keaton will always be a complete Batman in my opinion...
As a Flash fan, Batman was easily my most liked character in this movie - which says a lot ...especially about my nostalgia about Keaton's Batman
The best portrayal EVER of Batman in this movie. He was simply AWESOME. NO ONE comes close.
Affleck was much better ! much better fighter, way more tough, more menacing voice ! Bale is also better too !
I can agree on Affleck but not for Bale
@@brandongaribaldi8365 Bale at least in Batman Begins was great Batman and definetly better than Keaton !
Best Batmans ever: 1. Affleck 2. Keaton 3. Pete Holmes
finally, another actually good Batman fighting scenes
Yess bro
@@copyninja2549 tbf almost anything is better than the Nolan trilogy fight scenes, even (arguably) 90s Batman movies
@@copyninja2549strongly agree. Nolan batman fighting scenes was awful
@@wazeeryusry2518 When Batman kidnaps Lau in Tokyo or the fight scenes against the thugs in the street &when he picks them up into the air hanging upiside down in Batman Begins was the best in the Nolan Trilogy
@@BortaMagatbh Batman Forever is the First Batman Movie that have A great fight scene beside Burton batman mvoies fight scene
1:11 the classic theme 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
❤❤❤❤
LET'S GO
Keaton is an ABSOLUTE BEAST. The GOAT of all live action Batman’s and completely stole the show.
Keaton and Conroy are the true Bat-GOATS.
This Batman made me enjoy this flash a lot. Michael Keaton really did a good job. Why did they wait so long to make him Batman again. He was perfect for the role 💯
Man, Michael Keaton absolutely had a blast with playing as Batman again! I really hope he plays as Batman even more in future DC films
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, buuuut….
@@ace_v2905 I know........😞 WB Entertainment can sometimes be a pain in the ass sometimes
@@M64broshey what makes him twice a badass is fighting a kryptonian with no kryptonite
@@Ricky-_-H Yeah that scene was absolutely cool
@@Ricky-_-H at not just a kryptonian, but a giant one
Keaton's Batman putting up a good fight with the Kryptonians despite not having fought any aliens before was badass
That is the essence of Batman to me. Justice until his last breath
Seeing Michael Keaton reprise his role as Batman was my only sole reason for going to watch this film. He's the live action version of Kevin Conroy to me.
September, 1989, it was the first time I seen Batman as a kid. I didn’t know why people were up in arms about Michael Keaton being Batman, but I thought he was great. & to this day, he STILL is great!!! No one can ever change my mind about the fact that Michael Keaton, with the exception of Adam West & Kevin Conroy, is, was & always will be, the greatest Batman of all time!
Those fight scenes seem to have been the best Michael Keaton has performed in his Batman role. The intensity, the carnage and the skills were just top all round. I didn't expect him to pull such amazing fight scenes. Those fight scenes alone are way better than the entire Shazam 2. Respect 🐐🖤
It’s cause it’s not him. They got stunt doubles to do all the fight scenes and cgi’d the rest. But that aside, I 100% agree these fight scenes were absolutely amazing
What’s even more amazing is that Michael Keaton is 71 years old now and can still move like this.
Yeah it's called CGI and stunt doubles
But also to be fair let us recognize that even in Keaton’s ORIGINAL Batman films his martial arts and ballet stunt doubles were responsible for 95% of the amazing character movements we know today. Keaton built the character, but these guys gave him the physical movements
Yeah and Michael Keaton the actor did such a great job flying the batplane and deflecting those bullets, too! Didn't know he had it in him!
This is the batman we deserved .. thank you michael u ll be in our hearts forever
What a treat. Thank god for this movie, they actually brought the GOAT Burton-Keaton Batman back for us!!.. 😎👍👍
But not the one we need so that we have to hunt him
"I'm Batman"!!! Gave me chills.
All due respect to every other actor who played Batman but Micheal Keaton just made him very very real. I remember getting those toys for Christmas man it was something to get the Keaton Batman toys!
Keaton carried this film pls give him one last movie bro would be awesome
I was born in 1982. Michael Keaton will forever be Batman in my eyes. His face was on every Batman toy and video game. My fellow 80s babies know what I’m talking about. I would binge watch the original 2 films over and over with my dad and play with my Batman toys and man made grapple hooks I made with sticks and a rope (darn thing never held up ) Man those were good times. So many memories and chills watching him return with HIS cowl. Hearing all the classic one liners again was so cool. And to see the original batwing jet with the original theme playing in the background was madness. Epic is all I can say. I’m a older man and a father myself now but you brought me back to my childhood when I was a little boy in my batman pajamas with the cape and I really appreciate that. You carried this movie on your back. I’d love to see more Keaton films as the aging Gotham knight era Batman. It’s so much they can do with Michael. He saved this film. Thank you for giving us one last ride Michael.
I was also born in 1982, Michael KEATON is BATMAN for me. I discovered the character thanks to his movie and the rerun of Adam WEST séries. 70 years old and he comes back ! Respect... Regards from France !
82 right here as well! Saw Batman 2 times back to back when it came out in 88!
@@zorrovengador8625 man remember the toys. The utility belt with the grapple hook on it. Man nobody could be the face of Batman in my eyes. It took so much for me to wrap my head around Val and couldn’t stand Clooney at all as Bruce. Nobody could hold a candle to Michael Keaton when he wears his cowl.
@@CHAMPl982 I agree: the one and only Batman : Michael KEATON
@@unholyorders82 man I could watch the Keaton films all day man. I’d sit there with my action figures and go ballistic man. Nothing like the 80s I swear that era will never be duplicated.
coolest batman we've had in a movie for years, love the fact that they gave him an Arkham series like style in his fighting and partly in how he moves and behaves, but still keeps this Keaton's carisma, really makes it very enjoyable to watch compared with other batmans in movies, since they tend to seek for some kind of realism just in the worse way possible and then you see the assassins who trained him doing cooler stuff and that will just make it lame
Seeing Keaton as Batman and Batman’s well choreographed fight scenes made watching worth something, Keaton’s been my favorite since 1989 and his version is still badass with a baterang. I only wished they had Danny Elfman score his music. It would’ve completed the nostalgia high 😂.
He legit carried this movie, they have to give him one more movie so the original trilogy can be complete
I’d love to see a dark knight returns live action movie with Micheal Keaton as Batman
@@geeebuttersnap2433batman vs superman is already a retake on dark knight returns my guy from the plot to the suit lol
@@killmeee6768 I know, I was just hoping for a better interpretation of it.
That'd be fucking dope.
I want to see a Batman Beyond movie with Michael Keaton as old Bruce Wayne
Proof you can make a Batman Beyond movie at this point
Yea as long as they dont screw it up with a terry casting choice (among other things) and i would at least hope timm and dini were some how involved. Id be all for a batman beyond movie but i dont think we’ll ever see that
So good, man. So good!!
Michael Keeton carried this movie on his back. I had no clue how much i liked him as batman. Brought back a lot of cool memories of when i was a kid watching his movie. I even had this super well made batman costume that my mom bought for me from oversea. Good times, man...
I’m 43 years old, grew up with Michael Keaton as the ONLY Batman that mattered, and this literally has me in tears. I’ve watched it like 10 times
Word🔥🙏🏼
Yeah, sad that he’s dead, but hey, he went out taking out a Kryptonian General, that’s why he’s the goat 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You need to get your hormones checked, too much estrogen.
@@angryboi595the kryptonian actually ended up getting up later after Bats died so he just fought him and knocked him out 😭
@@itsvillayne that’s still much more than anything the entire military could do
1:03 "You... You... You're..." "Yeah... I'm the old man that just duked it into my kitchen shelves."
This variant of Michel Keaton's batman has to be on par with Ben Affleck's batman. Never seen such an agile and energetic batman like him and I love it so much
Michael Keaton will always be the Batman.
This is why Andy Muschietti is going to absolutely KILL IT with The Brave and the Bold. Every Batman scene in this movie was masterfully directed.
💀
My ego's far too big to say thank you💀💀💀💀
@@joloarpia866 I don't really see what everyone's problem with that line is, but either way, that's writing, not directing. Muschietti didn't have anything to do with that.
@@DrewFilms05 yeah and they change of the script writer so we are gonna have a good writer and a good director and a great fucking movie
@@DrewFilms05it seems that Christina Hudson wrote that line 💀💀💀
I wish this was a batman movie , the fans have been crying out loud we want to see him glide , fight and do cool stuff . In all the batman films we get a half and half , this is the closest we have goten to batman in the comics.
Facts.
Dude so true! I am so tired of the "realistic" Batman. Although Nolan did a great job giving it a spin its time for an actual comic representation. Batman is a Man amongst Gods and he should be able to showcase why he stands head and shoulders and even above at times the stronger and gifted members of the League.
@@CarlosSanchez-ip1vs you all just wanna see a god like batman with no flaws and its weird, nolan in fact did not do a good job of a comic representation, any batman fan with above average knowledge on the character knows that, matt reeves created the first proper good bat verse that feels like the gritty detective noir comics, not the justice league ones where batman is unstoppable
@@geordiemc4571 I said a Batman who was a man amongst gods, someone who can actually stand alongside godlike beings, I never said I wanted an unstoppable Batman, I said I wanted a comic accurate Batman, someone who is both a detective and a League member who is actually worthy of being there. Nolan did his own thing which was good because it gave a breath of fresh air to the franchise after the tragedy of Batman and Robin. But now we need more of this type of Batman and as you can see, he is STILL HUMAN he still died but not without a fight, and actually knocked out a Kryptonian. That's all I actually want.
This Was beautiful
"Yeah... Im man"
I don't get it. He said "I'm Batman". is there some kind of inside joke I'm missing?
@@oel734 is he stupid?
@@BaileyC-ni3bz Why? For saying he's Batman?
@@oel734Jonkler?
@@oel734get back to the alsume!
Honestly, probably one of the most accurate Batman fight scenes we've seen in live action to date. Before I would have said the Ben Affleck Batman fight scene in the warehouse was, but realistically Affleck kinda made Batman just a brawler. In Flash, Keaton's Batman exhibited all of Batman's fighting prowess and characteristics: actual martial arts with punches, kicks, and throws, tactical use of various gadgets including using them in unique ways like ricocheting a batarang off a pipe to hit the opponent he was grappling with, and using his glide capabilities with his cape to pick up an opponent and slam them into the ground. It was just the complete package that Batman fans have been DESPERATE for.
Taking those rifles was unrealstic tho lol
@@wingedhussar1453it's still batman still comics not everything is gonna be realistic
@cryosound6043 I get thr but when did batman take rifles head on like this. It's a Lil to much.i don't think he ever did in comics he was more stwalthy
@@wingedhussar1453 I can forgive that part a bit since live-action really has zero hope of properly exhibiting the combat prowess/acrobatic skills Batman possesses in the comics. I think it was more to showcase how armored his suit is that would allow him to engage emenies with automatic rifles like that. Given the physical limitations of the Hollywood costume department and... well... physics... Batman's suit wouldn't actually allow him to perform complex aerial combat maneuvers like we see him do in the comics and video games, so I can kind of understand the decision to go in the direction they did with it.
@@wingedhussar1453 battinson has him do it in a damn hallway, dark or not
It’s exiting to see Michael Keaton back in the bat suit . Reminds me of that young 13 year old kid when I saw it in the theaters !!
I agree with You. I was very excited with his fighting scenes and moreover, with he on board on the Classic Batwing.
I agree I was 12 and will never forget that year or that movie. I had all kinds of Batman merchandise 😅
This is level 10 Batman returns . What a badass scene
The live action Batman of my childhood ❤
