Well there you have it folks the Sparkly Vampire will be the new Batman, maybe they will put sequined underwear on him. Or better yet get Kristen Stewart to star as his love interest maybe in the role of Vicki Vale, how great would that be...
He's a terrible choice in my opinion as he is too wimpy looking to be a badass superhero crime fighter, he was not even intimidating as a vampire hell even a bat is scary as a vampire.
