But I wonder why Bale hasn't said anything about the editing of his voice?


Hmmm .....

Why so ... hoarse?
"Imagination is a quality given a man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humour was provided to console him for what he is."

I had heard rumors, but I didn't know it was true. Production is ruining Bale's Batvoice, what the hell is wrong with them?

Yeah, the cowl in TDK looked at times ridiculous, especially with the lighting during the beat'em'up (aka interrogation room) scene. He really looked like a Catman with this cowl.



LOL, I didn't even know that such a thing existed.

Why so hoarse? At the end of the day, I think we can take this voice as some cheese value in an otherwise dark film. ALL good comic book films have cheese value, no matter how serious they try to take themselves (be it Burton's Batman, Iron-Man, Singer's X-Men, Raimi's Spider-Man or whatever), so one can be fine with that.  :)

Presumably, it's clearly unintentional ... but that just makes the easily mocked Bale hoarse voice even more hilarious!

I still dont believe they dubbed Bales voice.

What the hell are you on about?

Bale's voice was not dubbed.

The Bale Batman voice IS Bale, just digitally altered a tad to sound raspier.

I think it's a crashing course by altering his voice. Hopefully in the sequel they'll just leave it alone (& maybe he'll try to make his voice sound less forced).

I think people exaggerate Bale's Batman voice. I don't find it as bad as people say, I commend Bale for making an obvious distinction between the two roles - Bruce and Batman. When he puts on the suit, his personality changes. He has to disguise his voice after all.

I think that Bale's Batman voice was a little over the top in BB, & was made worse in TDK. I can't imagine Batman having those voices. But hey, that's me.
