Dear Clark,
I've been thinking. (Yeah, what else is new? -R)
Whom do you have to deal with out there? Lex Luthor, for the most part. A non-powered human who uses his vast intellectual, technological, and finantial resources to put himself on a level with you. Let's face it, he's the evil version of me.
Meanwhile, over here, I've got the Joker. A madman with grandiose schemes that I have to find clever ways to thwart. (He was going to use the word "stop." Can you believe him? -R)
Of course, there are others. You've got the Prankster, I've got the Riddler. You've got... (I think you get the idea. -R)
Now, if I was in Metropolis, I'd be keeping a very careful eye on LexCorp. Instead of waiting for them to roll out their next killer robot and having to battle it in the streets, I'd have spies in their ranks, computer experts keeping track of their finances and projects, informants I could pump for information, etc. I'd take it offline before it could ever be built.
You, you could do a sweep of Gotham and find all sorts of interesting things it'd take me weeks to uncover. If Joker poisoned the lake, you could take care of the whole thing in seconds. If Killer Croc got loose, you'd have him behind bars before the Batmobile could even get to the scene.
Much as I hate to admit it, Gotham could probably do with some color and cheer, too. No one here is used to looking up. Metropolis, well... a healthy dose of cynicism couldn't hurt. People don't tend to wonder what's lurking in the shadows.
What do you think? You want to trade for a while?
Yours,
Bruce (&Co.)
(P.S. I love this. You two are the world's finest pen pals.)

And yeah, I wonder, too. Wouldn't it be cool if they actually did try it for a couple of months in the comics?
(Though I suppose there was that Batman/Superman ep where Bruce went missing and Clark had to pretend he was Batman. That was fun. But not quite the same thing.)

I know everybody likes Micheal Keaton's Batman, but Christian Bale is the only one I'll ever see in the suit. I cannot WAIT to see Bale and Ledger on screen together - Legend in the making. It'll be like The Prestige all over again. I wonder who could play Robin to Bale's Batman?
Hey, Paul - who's your favourite Supes and Batman?

OMG, Christian Bale so is the one and only! Michael Keaton is Mr. Mom for god's sake, not Bruce Wayne!!!! Sheeesh!

Kinda too bad Chris O'Donnell is too old... he made a good one, imho. :)

No ideas for Robin, but I'm sure they could find some suitable unknown.
Supes-wise... Routh did a very good job as a Reeve stand-in. I never really saw Kirk Allen, and it's too late for him, George Reeves, or Chris Reeve. I do like the animated voice actor, too. And, of course, Dean. But, basically, these days... Routh is the only way to go. I just wish they could update the character. Drop some (more) of the Silver Age stuff...

You know this is just crying out for a fanfic. Screw the comics; you could do it so much better. :D
