"hate" is a strong word but i can't say i love what the guy looks like when he's out in public in the paparazzi photos. He always looks schlubby and over-weight, and the beard (usually) doesn't do him any favors.

You mean the actor specifically or his portrayal of Batman

We do not hate bale as bat-sy he was mature and played the role very mature

Nothing. I love everything about him.

That he didn't throw the script for 'Nolan's knight rises' in the nearest bin and refuse to do the movie until his character was changed back from an arthritic clueless imbecile who couldn't find his own ass with both hands and a Bat-ass detector to the Bruce Wayne/Batman of TDK.
An opinion is not offensive just because you do not agree with it.

The voice, his stupidity in TDKR, and the way they played Bruce Wayne as Paris Hilton with a dick.

1. BVS 2. TWS 3. Avengers

Nah, that title goes to UltimateHippo

aka Nolan's biggest dickrider

I love Christian Bale. My only problem with him is the same thing as everyone else. The Batman voice is so goddamn stupid. "Where is the trigger?! Where's the trigger?! TELL ME WHERE THE TRIGGER IS!!!!"

Hmm that's an interesting idea. Dent sure but joker? That would be something

He was just the wrong actor to portray Bruce Wayne and Batman.
How exactly?

He was just the wrong actor to portray Bruce Wayne and Batman. He would have made a better Harvey Dent or Joker.

Only the voice but I don't have huge issues with it. They should have used a voice modulator.

Thats all an act, Thats not how Bale's Bruce Wayne actually acts when in private. That's his public persona.
I know. But that doesn't make it any less annoying.

annoying, spoiled billionaires.

That's exactly who Bruce Wayne's public persona is supposed to be. So what's the problem?
While previous portrayals of Bruce Wayne certainly have played the character as an eligible bachelor, I never thought of them as annoying, spoiled billionaires. Val Kilmer's Bruce was professional, hard working and a respected figure around Gotham City. Christian Bale's Bruce is more of a rich punk everyone reluctantly puts up with. Granted it was all an act, but it got annoying fast.

The problem is that they overdid it a little, is what they are saying.

They kept playing on the idea of him being this annoying, spoiled playboy billionaire.

As a person, or his Batman portrayal?
I'll overlook the voice, but I guess my only real problem is not so much his Batman, but his Bruce Wayne. And that comes down to the writing. They kept playing on the idea of him being this annoying, spoiled playboy billionaire. He started out good in BATMAN BEGINS. You'd almost believe he could also pull off the professional businessman Bruce Wayne. But it got worse with the sequels. And his clearly go nowhere relationship with Rachel was annoying because neither came out and said it was so obviously not going to happen. And her
death leading to his eight year absence was crap

It never seemed like he actually cared about the character. He was incredibly bland in all 3 of those movies; there's no trace of the guy who from American Psycho or The Machinist. He was just Generic Action Man. The voice was terrible too, but I put that more on Nolan, since he changed it in post-production.
