  I actually don`t mind films with alot of cgi, it all depends on how they use it, like the ending of Iron Man 2 that is mostly cgi in the final fight but i thought that was great,
  although i agree that in a batman beyond film that an actor who can do some gymnastics would be very good casting.

  well yes iron man 2 was fine, but just think in batman beyond if say it was a typical beyond fight with batman flying around etc... then the backdrop would more than likely be cgi, batman would be cgi, the enemy would quite likely be cgi, i just think it would take a lot of skill to pull off a film with as much cgi, as beyond would need to be done right, and not have it turn out crap. it would also need a pretty massive budget for the same reason
  
  the reason i said about the gymnastics is because in beyond there's actually quite a few parts were terry is jumping around, flying off walls and all sorts of things as himself i.e without the suit on because at first i thought the suit was helping him but apparently the character of terry is just a very good gymnast.
  
  in regards to the suit he would ware, while i would obviously like it to be like the comics, i can't really see that happening as in the comics it's pretty much just flat black, skin tight looking but with no muscles showing, no belt showing etc... so i can't see that really working in a film, however i think something like the attached might be quite cool but with quite a bit less red

  Oh yeah i know i remember the parts where terry does lots of jumping around and stuff so yeah someone who didn`t have the gymnastic skill in a part like that would mean reliance on a stunt double.
  
  I get what you mean about the cgi, alot of cgi if a director is not careful can stand out a mile, some directors are good with it, some aren`t.
  
  I can`t see the pic you posted right now, because for some reason the image hosting isn`t working today i`ll check it out later, also if you search batman arkham city batman beyond costume it`s a slightly altered version of the costume from the series that would be an idea if they were to ever do it.

  yeah the one day i decide to use imagechunk like we're told to and it doesn't work lol!
  
  the arkham city could work but it's not great to me, as he has too much muscle definition showing, the belts showing and he just looks too big, i always think of the mcguiness batman as being more wirey, slim and speedy more than big and muscular
  
  not that it matters anyway because apart from the animated one with the joker i don't think there's ever even been a whisper about a live action batman beyond film

  christian bale simply for the fact that he brings a fresh element to the whole batman concept and also because the best joker of all time was in it (heath ledger)

  yea see again same thing, it's just that the FILMS were better with christian bale. if you were to take george clooney and jack nicholson (one of the best actors of all time period) and make a movie around them it would be the best batman film, but that can never happen now obviously.
  
  imagine that 'here's johnny' psychoness in a joker role?? THAT would be an awesome joker, but instead jack had to be some camp clown type lol. anyway, i'm looking forward to the next batman film

  after seeing the joker and the way it was acted by heath, i don't think anyone would be able to do it as well, and personally i've never rated jack nicholson as far as i'm concerned he's just one of those actors who everyone constantly goes on about being "the best actor ever" but i've never been massively impressed by his stuff

  are you just watching his new stuff? watch one flew over a cuckoo's nest and the shining and you'll see (if you don't think he's a great actor, maybe not necessarily one you like but a great actor, after those films then i don't know what to do for you lol).
  
  the departed is pretty good too and his performance in a few good men is great if you can stand watching tom cruise in that film lol
  but to each their own :)
  
  did you hear what he said after heath ledger's death? he said something along the lines of 'i did warn him'. cuz apparently he offered to 'consult' with him for that role cuz it's a really tough role etc, but they didn't want his help. kind of dark on his part....

  pretty certain i've seen every film of his, and while i don't think he's a bad actor by any means, i just don't agree with the way so many people seem to think he's gods gift to acting, is he very good? yes, are there many other actors just as good? in my opinion yes.
  
  and i honestlydon't think he would of been as good as heath was if he were to of been in dark knight
