    Who’s your best Batman?

    Keaton as I thought he was able to carry off the duality of the role with ease. He was the only reason I saw that terrible Flash movie. I'll admit to liking West just for the sheer heck of his acting range. Plus you can't beat this classic clip

    D&D General Would you buy an AI-generated Castle Greyhawk "by" Gary Gygax?" Should you?
