ya know despite the fact that Mel Gibson is apparently a real piece of sh!te, I really do enjoy him as an actor, and he just might have been able to pull off Bats.

Surprisingly the one problem I have isn't with any one cast member, but with the pairing of Mel as Bats and Eastwood as Gordon. Eastwood might have even made a decent Gordon, but there's no way I could take Batman seriously anymore if Commissioner Jim Freakin Gordon is a million times more badass than Batman himself. It just feels weird.

My only suggestions

Malcom McDowell as Joker rather than Hammil, and maybe Helena Bonaham Carter as Catwoman for a more bad ass AND seductive feel as opposed to just bad ass.

other than that, this cast is literally perfect.




Some of you asked for more of my paintings, so here's my Joker Painting! (OC)

I'd watch the shit out of this movie! Although I do dig the choice for Joker @TheSoulEater recommended! McDowell is incredible in A Clockwork Orange. He'd be phenomenal

Great cast! Hamilton is not right for Selina.

McDowell for Joker ftw.

I wonder how much research you put into this because at face value this is very good. What I mean by that is, are the ages copacetic? Were they famous at this point? What does iffice year is this if it's not '89. 4 years ago, I made an effort to make a Burton Batman if I were helping him.

And sequels

I also made an '86 Batman based very heavily in truth

And I'm churning out my latest take on this idea as I type this. This one sees 1989 as the year TDKReturns hits theaters and moves on from there. One left until I complete that series by here's what I've got so far

That was 1989-90, 93, 95, 97 and 99 will come shortly

@ager

I loved your having Gregory Peck as Alfred

Also loved your Shadow of the Bat '97 cast!

@I know right Spooks!!!

He'd own it then the way Heath did this century

Why not Dafoe as Joker? Seems more fitting.

@GuardianAngel

Given the feel of this cast, I think that what Dafoe can offer as Big Bad Harve is ideal to the ensamble so far
