Hot Toys Reeve Superman or Keaton Batman?

[BXCOLLECTOR]

love the superman movies

but im a bigger batman fan so KEATON wins

 

[nash]

As far as i'm concerned the ONLY batman is BALE. Keaton and everyone else was terrible. Reeves as Superman was legendary.

 

[rw23]

Reeve FTW!

 

[Cap'n Cook]

No question here. Reeve all the way.

 

[RJMacReady16]

You're on ignore!

Ouchies.

Reeve all the way. He is a Superhero Icon- I need a Superman figure, and will not settle for that poser Brandon Routh in his inaccurate costume. Hell, Dean Cain was a more believable Superman than Routh, and Cain was restricted by a TV budget. Keaton was a compelling Batman for the time, his performance a revelation, but the films hold up devastatingly poorly, though I do consider myself a Keaton (as an actor) fan. (He kicks ass in "Much Ado About Nothing".)

Keaton, hands down. THE definitive batman, imho. If a superman got made, of course, Reeve is the only superman period in my eyes, he is probably the definitive superhero of both, but i personally want a well made Keaton first. I'd buy both however

 

[Dr.Mirakle32]

There is no question. I would have to buy both.

Choking on my coffee. What! you're kidding right?

All this talk about the inaccurate costume. If you check superman's history his costume has had many changes

I'm going for Reeve. We need something to make up for that awful DC direct statue.

Superman's costume has had a basic look for decades. Cain's costume was close to Reeve's costume, was close to Byrne's costume, was close to Swan's costume, you get the picture. Yes, it was a bit different early on, and the shield especially has evolved some over the years, but the fact remains that the reds were too dark on the Routh costume, as well as the shield too small. To my knowledge, he has never had the "S" on his belt, either. It looked like overkill, the aesthetics were bad.
Ohyeah! The cape attachment looked bad, too. Superman has always had that cool "cape tucked in" look at the neckline, and Routh's costume did away with that. It just seemed like the coolest things about Supe's costume were done away with for the Routh, and for no good reason. The "panties" rode too low, and the boots were a bit too short, too. The lowered "underpants" combined with a smaller "S" made his torso look too enlongated- it exaggerated his appearance, making his legs look short, and his torso too tall.

It was a new interpretation of the costume, that's why some things were changed.

I loved the new suit, the little 's' making up the large S on the shield was a nice touch.

Well, that's obvious.
That said, I thought it got rid of the best details of the classic costume in favor of pointless changes. it was an unnecessary new interpretation, just Bryan Singer's way of putting his own mark on it. Not needed.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Reeve Superman.

 

[Batman5]

Reeve Superman ftw.
While I want a Keaton Batman I'll take a Reeve Superman in a heart beat.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Well, that's obvious.

That was my point. A classic ver suit would have looked dated in a glossy new Supes film like SR was. Update was needed and well done.

 

[Riko]

Keaton Batman, no doubt.

Menacing, dark, black, a cool mask, gadgets + even a batmobile => all the stuff a serious superhero must be made of ánd would be nice to have in a 1/6 scale

OE YEAH!:chew

 

[fantasymaker]

Absolute keaton batman .

 

[Ven]

everyone who voted reeve, you're dead to me.

 

[rabidwolverine21]

i like em both but if i had to pick it would be keaton batman, and god knows hot toys could make a bad ass figure for each of them.
