I agree with many different opinions here. Keaton did a very good job, and got out before it got too cartoonish and ridiculous.
The later movies destroyed many characters, especially Bane.
I think that Bale is a good choice for the studio, but I think it is a mistake for Bale. Too many people just steer clear of superhero movies in general, and I think it will hurt him because it will be his most public role and generally the critics are not kind to these types of films. A bad review in a very public film could damage Bale for a long time. Granted, Spider-man and the X-men films created a mini-superhero boom with both the critics and the general public, but I think that Daredevil and the Hulk just destroyed the genre again. People will be lining up to just blast the next few superhero movies.
