Is Robert Pattinson the Best Batman to Date?
Below is a list of things Robert Pattinson does better than any other Batman actor, courtesy of CBR.com.
He's Got The Best Batman Voice In A Live-Action Movie
The way Batman actors change their voices is one of the most fascinating features of the franchise. Kevin Conroy's voice was arguably the finest at switching between Bruce Wayne and Batman in the animated Batman, but Pattinson is the best of the live-action Batman. His Batman has a distinct voice from Bruce's, yet it's never absurd.
He's Had the Most Batman Moments Ever
The Batmobile is inextricably linked to the Batman legend, and "The Batman" takes a unique approach to it. Instead of an impossible supercar, the Batmobile in the film is a souped-up muscle car, which viewers don't get a good look at until the movie's pursuit scene near the end when it jumps through a fiery explosion to slam into Penguin's car.
He Is, in Fact, a Detective
In the movies, Batman's detective skills were either lacking or reliant on equipment. In the comics, Batman isn't always the finest detective, but he's better than most of the film adaptations. In contrast, Pattinson's Batman is a true detective.
