Controversial opinion. He was quite good in Twilight too. The one I watched anyway. Can't remember which one. It involved werewolves.
In light of more positive views on Robert's acting mentioned in the thread, maybe I was wrong & the role just didn't suit him.I watched Pattinson play the lead in a film recently, and he was completely outshone by the supporting cast (Christina Ricci, UmaThurman & Kristin Scott Thomas). He wasn't terrible but looked out of his depth.
What was the film?In light of more positive views on Robert's acting mentioned in the thread, maybe I was wrong & the role just didn't suit him.
I hope DC had better taste than him, I don't wanna have my favorite DC character ruined againNooo, he's become one of the more interesting actors around lately. Hope he's got better taste than that.
A period drama titled Bel Ami, mate. I actually enjoyed it, tbf.Pogue said:What was the film?
Far too highbrow for me!A period drama titled Bel Ami, mate. I actually enjoyed it, tbf.
I watch 50p dvds starring Ben Affleck and Pattzman®, chief!Far too highbrow for me!
I'm not outraged by this, but to be fair, he still looks like a late teenage boy and he's about 100lbs underweight for the role. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but I'm not sure how he's going to fill the role. Maybe it's just my own bias, but I can't take him seriously as a fully grown man who is somehow supposed to intimidate criminals.Because they have the cultural appreciation of teenage boys, and are thus only aware of him being in something for teenage girls. Ew.
I think Affleck wasn't bad, just the movies he was in as Batman were atrocious.Predictions - won’t be worse than Affleck.
Yeah, fully agree with this, you worded it way better than me.I'm not outraged by this, but to be fair, he still looks like a late teenage boy and he's about 100lbs underweight for the role.

He is only active when it’s dark, dresses like a bat and sleep with a lot of beautiful women. Also lives in an old gothic mansion, with a cavernous hideout down below.I always suspected that Batman was a vampire.
we're talking about a man who dances around in a costume at night, pull yourself togetherWell I won't be watching any new Batman films if this is true .
Still superhero fans deserve an emo Batman for teenage girls I guess
Leonardo DiCaprio is a great actor, but he'd be a terrible casting decision for He-Man unless they substantially CGI'd him. You still need to vaguely resemble the role you're playing. Unless they engineer the feck out of his bat-suit in which case he'll look ridiculous like when they designed the Superman suit for Nicholas Cage for the movie that thankfully never got made.I remember fondly when Heath Ledger got announced as the Joker and everyone laughed at the time. Don’t underestimate the power of acting.
Speaking of Batman, it says a lot how much Pattinson is rated by elite directors when Christopher Nolan has cast him as a lead in his new upcoming movie.
Of all the problems an actor might have in this role, surely getting in shape is the easiest to fix? I can't imagine it would be that hard for Pattinson to bulk up heavily if he needs to given he can pretty much dedicate all his time and effort to it, as well as pay for professional trainers to help him through the process. He's about 6ft tall so it's not like height is a major problem either.Leonardo DiCaprio is a great actor, but he'd be a terrible casting decision for He-Man unless they substantially CGI'd him.

He's a good actor but no doubt people will judge him for the twilight films

He seems to have worked with a who's who of directors in recent years.Speaking of Batman, it says a lot how much Pattinson is rated by elite directors when Christopher Nolan has cast him as a lead in his new upcoming movie.
Bale was coming of the Machinist, and looked fine by the time Batman begins was filmed. He will hit the gym and look as big as the director wants by the time they film.Leonardo DiCaprio is a great actor, but he'd be a terrible casting decision for He-Man unless they substantially CGI'd him.

Dread to think what the Internet would of been like when Mr Mom was cast as Batman.
All one has to do is wear a silly costume and say silly dialogue in a silly voice.Has there ever been a bad Batman? Even Clooney did a decent job playing the character despite the terrible script. It's not a very challenging role. Even Ben Affleck made it look cool.
