Adam West is DB Cooper. I would never, ever vote for a skyjacker.

Keaton was an outstanding Batman, but a poor Bruce Wayne. I really thought Clooney had the best Wayne but by the time he'd landed the role the franchise had denigrated into a farce. His portrayal of the actual Batman didn't help matters. Neither did nipples on the bat costume.
Bale's probably the most well-rounded actor ever to step into the Batman role, and though I thought he was forcing it sometimes as The Bat, he's got the yuppie billionaire persona nailed down tightly. I'm REALLY pumped because it looks like the joker looks like he's written properly and Heath Ledger seems (seemed) to get the idea too. I had to vote Bale... not necessarily because he was the "best" but because the way Batman Begins was written and directed it allowed him to be better than the others. It was close enough that the better script let him win out in the end.

Besides, no one has yet to fill out the role of Catwoman like the original three, Julie Newmar(those cheekbones! that voice!)
Lee Meriwether(that smile!)
and Eartha Kitt(those eyebrows, the hair and voice, my my!)

Keaton was best! All those who had read the comic for years realize that.
He did a beautiful job. Bale is .....pale in comparison.
