I know, only ten options - so I left an "other" open.

2. Deep Roy

[fishwax]

3. Pretty much anyone from the cast of Cheers

[alphafemale]

5. Norm woulda been alright. So long as he didn't ever have to run. nt

[fishwax]

7. as a now-aging and apathetic batman he might be about perfect

Answer the bat call or have another beer? :)

[Amerigo Vespucci]

4. Trump would be GREAT...he'd TALK the super-villains to death.

There'd be lines outside of Arkham Asylum and Gotham City Prison a mile long, with all of those daffy bastards turning themselves in, just to make...that...voice...STOP.

:rofl:

[riderinthestorm]

6. Mike Myers. He'd THINK he could do it... but naw... nt

[Dr. Strange]

9. I'm the Batman, Bay-bee!

[sarge43]

8. Pauly Shore

It's too early in the morning to post a picture of that creature. In fact, it's never a good time.

[UTUSN]

10. Other: Nicholas CAGE. That is all. n/t

[whistler162]

11. William Shatner if you consider him a actor!

[Lionel Mandrake]

16. Captain Kirk would have been an excellent choice

in the 1960s.

Now he could play Tubby the Tuba.

[Incitatus]

12. Rob Schneider nt

[KamaAina]

13. Ron Jeremy

:evilgrin:

[HopeHoops]

14. Maybe they could call the movie "BatBone"

[gratuitous]

15. No Steve Buscemi?

The cowl would be no disguise whatever.

Funny story I heard about the Michael Keaton/Jack Nicholson first Batman movie: They're setting up for a shot, and Keaton has Nicholson by the lapels. They're waiting for everything to get into place, both in full costume, and Nicholson mutters to Keaton, "We're grown men."

I have no idea if that's true, but I'd like it to be.

17. Tracy Morgan

[eShirl]

18. Mr Whipple is dead

so I picked him

[SOteric]

19. Gilbert Gottfried.

[hyphenate]

36. Add Bobcat Goldthwaite to that, too. eom

[rurallib]

20. Danny Devito

[Frank Cannon]

21. In Clooney's defense, the director/screenwriters were fucking idiots

I actually don't think George ever got a fair shot at the role.

In fact, I'll go out on a limb here and say that I think he now has the acting chops / maturity to play the big guy in a film adaptation of the Dark Knight Returns. That's right. Flame me, if you must.

[HopeHoops]

25. I've seen Clooney in other things ("Burn After Reading" for example).

He can't talk without bobbing his head around - Soap Opera Syndrome. He just isn't convincing as an actor.

[Frank Cannon]

32. The head bob reappears when he's being silly.

I don't recall any bobbing in "Solaris" or "Up in the Air". He was very good in both of those movies.

But yeah, he started out a bit rough. I still think he'd make a good Bats, given a suit without nipples.

[HopeHoops]

34. The only thing that gave that movie ANY redeeming qualities was Aaahnold.

Aaahnold's performance in the Terminator movies was - well - "meh".

I really liked his acting in "Sixth Day". He was pretty much the only aspect of the 4th Batman movie worth anything. The rest was pretty stupid.

[NewJeffCT]

29. I agree with you on that

He has an on-screen intensity that works well in the right role - not the godawful Batman movie he was in.

[Frank Cannon]

33. He was also having to "act" with Chris O'Donnell in B&R

Chris O'Donnell is the only actor in Hollywood who makes Paul Walker look like Jimmy Stewart.

[Deep13]

22. David Spade nt

[Burma Jones]

23. Keanu Reeves

My go-to for worst possible choice for any number of roles......

[meow mix]

24. John Goodman

:rofl:

[mysuzuki2]

26. Rob Schneider

[Orsino]

27. Chris Farley, of course.

[nolabear]

28. Jerry Lewis.

Hurts just to think about it.

[geardaddy]

30. Adam Sandler

:scared:

[krispos42]

31. Joel from MST3k n/t

[JonLP24]

35. I thought Batman & Robin was awful

but George Clooney was a pretty good Batman I thought.

[doc03]

37. David Caruso, the worst possible actor to play anyone

38. Bob Newhart. n/t
