I think Bale did an excellent job in his first attempt. The best since Keaton for sure.

I'm with you this one really has me scratching my head, but well Nolan did great with Batman Begins so I guess I'll trust him. I seem to remember a name for the joker floating around that sounded like a great fit, but I can't remember who it was.

After seeing Eckhart in Thank You For Smoking I have no doubt he'd be a great Two-Face.

Crispin Glover would've been the ideal joker in my opinion...but I agree on Nolan as a director. So far he's proven to be an excellent film maker so I'll trust him with this.

That is the name I was thinking about. Crispin Glover would be absolutely perfect. I haven't seen a movie by Christopher Nolan yet, that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. Momento, Insomnia, Batman Begins, and the Prestige were all very good movies.

I thought Bale was a great Batman. I really like Batman Begins, probably my favorite of all the movies.

Agreed. Batman Begins was by far the best of the franchise and in my opinion the best "Comic film" made. Even without the superhero elements, it would've been a fantastic movie. Christian Bale handled the role very well.
