The one with Arnold sucked but who else would've played Mr. Freeze? |
I happened to be reading about the Batman franchise on wikipedia today actually. According to a (sourced) statement there,

Anthony Hopkins, Patrick Stewart, and Ben Kingsley were all considered for the role of Mr. Freeze, though ultimately Arnold Schwarzenegger was cast because Joel Schumacher decided that Mr. Freeze must be "big and strong like he was chiseled out of a glacier".

Wow. Here's the link:

It almost makes me want to go back and watch all the movies... I remember really liking Tim Burton's original. I don't remember the second one well enough to comment. And for the Schumacher installments I was in late elementary/middle school so I don't remember picking up on TEH SUCK. Another interesting note on wikipedia is how some people perceived the films to be homoeroticized by Schumacher. I can't really comment on that since I don't remember and those perceptions could be the product of homophobia. But I REALLY want to go back and watch those for the pure cheese factor alone.
