Who would you rather be Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne?

Both billionaires, neither have actual super powers, both rely on technology to fight crime, one has a hot assistant the other has Alfred. In the movies Tony drives an Audi R8, Bruce a Lamborghini Murcielago.

So what's your pick Iron Man or Batman?

bruce wayne without question. Totally agree with O-Banker that Alfred > hot assistant.

Besides, look at Stark's house--- fuck that gaudy new money shit. Wayne Manor (assuming it's rebuilt now) is about as baller as any residence can be, and it's classy.

"Class, Class, Class" (vince vaughn in WC with a bacon-wramped scallop in his mouth)

 

Wayne

"Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, for knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA."
 

This leads to all sorts of lifestyle issues.

Do I want to be a borderline psychotic whose early death of his parents lead to dressing up in tights or do I want to be an alcoholic with a fusion reactor in my chest so that I don't get metal fucking shards in my chest.

But for bad ass value totally batman.

 

Plus, if you ever watched the Justice League Cartoon, Batman has a back up plan to take down the entire team in case they go rogue. He's just a mere mortal with no powers and he has plans for the Martian Manhunter. So yeah. Don't fuck with Batman.

 

Would it be possible to form an alliance with Tony and get a modified Iron Man suit but in a Batman motif?

Bruce Wayne fits my style way more than Tony Stark but being able to fly around would be bitchin'. And I don't need a hot assistant when I'm having sexy with every chick in the Russian ballet.

FreeWeezyBros you're missing the main point here I think. Nobody knows that Bruce Wayne is Batman, so he can't even reap the added pussy pounding benefits of being a superhero (though I'm sure he does okay as a billionaire playboy). Anyway, if I'm a superhero I want my mug out there.

Tony Stark can fly bitches.

I like where your head's at thinking about this from the pussy perspective, but getting pussy is not a major issue when you're a multi-billionaire socialite from the most prestigious family in the city... so it doesn't really matter either way.

You are aware that he has like the worst powers ever. Who wants to talk to fish? I'd rather be rich and kick ass than save the whales.

Reality hits you hard, bro...
 

I'm in the minority with Stark. Bruce Wayne is too emo for me. He always seem clinically depressed and lives in a huge house with Alfred all alone. Stark is a lot more outgoing, has fun, and actually enjoys life. Stark house in the movies overlooking the bay kick azz.

Iron Man armor >>> Bat suit + Bat Mobile in my eye. Stark's pad (open air, sun, design) >>> stiff Wayne mansion.

Yeah, definitely Bruce Wayne. He has the class associated with his family's name and money, awesome gadgets and tech (without being made out of it), and some great ideals (the reason for having Batman take the blame for crime(s) he didn't commit, ridding Gotham of the evil slowly consuming it over time, beyond generous charity, and so on).

Even if not for all those reasons, what seems to be cockiness coming from Stark is pretty undesirable.

 

Stark. Nuff' said.

I doubt Bruce Wayne has half the fun kicking ass, and consider that Iron Man has never had his back broken and thrown into a deep-ass pit.

If possible though, I'd combine the two. God knows that Stark can do with half the tech Wayne Enterprises.

I think a lot of you are forgetting Stark has a nuclear reactor in his chest!

Bruce Wayne all day.

A non banking post for a change: I would argue for Tony Stark as fundamentally he is a genius, playboy billionaire. He's also worked for his money, building inventions etc with his father and now alone with his company. Bruce just inherited family money and went reclusive for most of his life. Stark for now is a hero, but eventually will become the best "support" character for all the other heroes. He will keep his brain when he is older.

To be honest, Poison Ivy didnt really do that much for me, and Hathaway was well fit in the TDKR. In real life you'd probably go Thurman then Hathaway, but then again in real life you wouldn't be Batman
