That's the difference between acting and just sort of a mimic or a ventriloquist or whatever puts their arm inside the thing of Batman does a pretend. Truly acting the story of what it's like to be Bruce Wayne in Batman, you're not putting on a voice. You're being another person. And that person has a set of realities that you have to commit to.
Well, no, no. But you know what I mean? Like I've heard, I've heard voice work. If I've had coffee, I'm too close to Wally. Fine, fine. I lied about believing in magic, but magic is the real lie. A major load.

Yeah. And if you hear Bruce in his head, it has to have this weight to it. I mean, if you look at the words, you look at what he's saying, he's like, you know, Mother, father, there's this weight to the syllables that are coming out of his mouth. There's not a ton of dialogue.

To be fair to everyone, the amount of words on the page I have noticed as an actor are far less than what you get in cinema. They're less than what you get in television and animation. Because in a comics, the art is doing so much heavy lifting for you. The actual words that are being spoken are fairly abbreviated to the point, well chosen.

So there is this weight that comes along with what Bruce is, when he speaks to himself or to others, that has to accompany it. He chooses his words, even in his own mind, very, very carefully, I feel.

That's correct. Yeah. You're not going to find an over-wordy Batman comic when Bruce is talking.

You're not dictating into your phone and then just throwing that up on panels. But I feel like Bruce's emotional content lends itself very well to that. It lends itself very well to that brevity, that there is this weight when he even arrives first at year one and he's, you know, I should have taken the train. And there's this sense of responsibility. There's regretfulness at times.

Could I have done this better? And as humans, where do we get those voices? Do we get those voices from our father? Do we get those voices from our mother? Where do those things come in? What makes us have this sense of internal responsibility? And on top of that, he's had to live his life without them. So yeah, I think it has that weight because of the story.
