Thats not bullet time, thats blocking a bullet.

No need to ad fictitious feats to this version of Batman’s already impressive strength durability and superior costume.

how exactly is that not bullet timer aka fast as a bullet?? Batman raised his gauntlet to block the bullet AFTER it had been fired...

Bullet time is dodging bullets as if they were in slo-mo...:

This is what happens when Batman doesn't block a bullet w. his gauntlet...:

Pretty obviously NOT bullet time.

Not saying Bats doesnt win, just calling bullshit on bullet time claims.

bullet time (the visual effect) is stylistically dodging bullets ala the Matrix

being a bullet TIMER is being able to move at the speed of a bullet wether that's blocking or dodging movement

they are two different concepts of the same result

This argument could go on for a while

^^^no, it actually wont. 😆

This is KMC, i’m fully aware the originator/supporters of the erroneous bullet time position would rather undergo a root canal than change their minds/agree w. me/admit they were mistaken.
I was simply clarifying my position (the correct position) that Batman isnt a bullet timer, and moving on.

I dont intend to waste my time repeating myself for the next two pages only to have it fall on stubbornly deaf ears.

So in closing, Batman can certainly win this match up, and he is most definitely not a bullet timer.

Cheers

Aim blocking.

I never got that Batman was superhuman. I admit I haven't seen the films in a long time.
What other feats does he have that borders superhuman ability?

The sequence is off (common thing). Otherwise that bullet was slow as shit.

Plus Batman arm is already in blocking position when the screen splits to him. He just raises it a little higher, but it's was always in the position to block.

I didn't mean to get into semantics about bullet timing vs aim-blocking by Keaton Batman, I just meant to show that he has some high level 80's/90's action hero feats that happened often back then. On a grander scale, it explains why Chris Reeve Superman could turn back time by flying around the earth and reversing its rotation, rebuild the Great Wall of China out of thin air, and push the moon to block the sun's rays, yet gets knocked down by a missile or two in Superman III. It's all old-school action fun. It's how James Bond could give Jaws pause even though Jaws survived having tons of stone dropped on him in Egypt.

The most notable Keaton feats are hanging by one hand and lifting with the other Vickie Vale to the cathedral ledge, lifting a Penguin goon in each hand and smacking their heads together, punching through his Batmobile floorboard to remove the Penguin's controlling device (he did this relatively quickly and on-the-fly, because the camera cuts show how close Batman was to running over an old lady crossing the street), and moving so quick the circus strongman didn't notice Keaton strapping a TNT timebomb to his belt buckle WHILE HE WAS LOOKING RIGHT AT HIM.

Anyways, I already said Keaton Batman is my favorite Batman, but nonetheless Affleck Daredevil beats him down. Affleck has him in every category except tech, and Keaton doesn't have any of that here.
