In response to "Sure, but Keaton made more sense for Batman at the time (a little goofy). Just don't get Affleck. -- nm" by colin

Ummm, actually no. Not according to the fans at that time

Batman's fans at first were thrilled by reports that Warner Bros. would spend $30 million to make a new Batman movie, for release next summer. They're no longer thrilled. Warner has cavalierly ignored their advice to cast a serious macho type--Sylvester Stallone or Clint Eastwood, say--in the spectacular. Instead, director Tim Burton has given the part to Michael Keaton.

I remember the outrage cause, well, by some standards, I'm old. This was my senior year of HS (www.timburtoncollective.com)
