Spin: why is Keaton seen as the best batman?

[Neuromancer]

I don't get it. He didn't look anything like Bruce, he was balding for Godsakes and his batman was more camp than anything. Why do people praise him when Bale was better, he'll Kilmer was better at looking the part. Affleck definitely did a better job than him in a poorly done movie. What gives

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

visually he doesn't resemble what you expect bruce wayne to look like but once he's in the suit he nails it. his swag and intensity was off the charts and he didn't need a voice modulator to sound tough.

of all the live action batmans no one had more screen presence while IN the suit.

He seemed like a joke to me tbh.

I never understood why Keaton was hailed as the GOAT. Bruce Wayne was supposed to be a handsome playboy while Batman was on some. I didn't get that from Keaton. IMO it's:

1. Affleck
2. Bale
3. Kilmer
4. Keaton

Keaton captured the essence of batman nh fam had the juice

Kilmer was the best bruce
Up until dkr bale was the best combo of bruce and the bat

Afleck spartan kicked bale out that spot and has the potential to be the best batman. Right now he's tied with keaton
