In response to "how bad must it of been, with after Spidr-Man's BO from having 2 old Spideys, that Keaton couldn't carry it to getting a release." by Beaker

Michael Keaton’s name isn’t guaranteeing success for any movie.

He’s good but he’s not a draw.

It was never supposed to be release in theaters, I think. (NM) - Marlowe Aug 3, 07:33
as the original Batman? I think you are sorely mistaken. -- nm - Beaker Aug 3, 07:19 10
- After Spider-Man, American Assasin, Dumbo, and the Protege all flopped. Look at his filmography. I like the guy but he’s not a name at all. -- nm - MDH Aug 3, 07:37 7
  - MDH, four out of four STers can't be wrong. -- nm - Spawn Aug 3, 08:37
  - Michael Keaton isn’t. Michael Keaton as Batman is the defining Batman for a generation of people. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 3, 08:18
  - He *is* Batman for a *lot* of people. -- nm - Spawn Aug 3, 08:08 2
    - Yup. It's him and Adam West for me. -- nm* - Krusty Aug 3, 08:49 1
      - Add Kevin Conroy for his animated voice, and we have the trifecta of formats. -- nm - Spawn Aug 3, 08:53
  - you're correct. But it's Iconic character that he brought to mainstream movies. They'll do something with him -- nm - Remlik Aug 3, 07:42
  - not his name, but the character he played -- nm - Beaker Aug 3, 07:38
- (but, to be fair, I have been wrong once or twice before :) ) -- nm - Beaker Aug 3, 07:23
- and after No Way Home if your PR Department can't sell it, then you need to hire a new PR Department -- nm - Beaker Aug 3, 07:20
