Ben Affleck is Batman.

The actor will replace Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne in the upcoming untitled Superman-Batman feature for Warner Bros., the studio announced Thursday.

And DC/Warner shot in his foot with this decision. Affleck is not a good actor. I'm not excited about this movie anymore, not until I see a trailer that changes my mind.

Worst choice possible, he should be allowed to make super hero movies after Daredevil.....
Lets hope he is at least watchable

I just hope it's better than the Dark Knight Rises.

To be fair, the badness of Daredevil wasn't really his acting's fault. It just had the bad timing of being in that era where every action movie ripped off the matrix.

I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. I remember a time when everyone thought that Heath Ledger as the Joker was going to be a disaster since he was just "that dude from that gay Brokeback Mountain film".

So, let's wait to judge him as Batman.

This just occurred to me. Somewhere Kevin Smith has or is currently masturbating to this.

Would not surprise me. Also, sometimes I hate being right.

The idea of a crossover is kinda lost when it doesn't involve the Batman everyone is used to, isn't it?

Everyone is used to Batman though, the character.
The actor doesn't matter much if he plays the character right.
Im also keeping my expectations low so that if its good it will be a nice suprise

Maybe. I don't know if it would be possible to do the Christian Bale version of the character in a crossover movie, though. How would you have a dark and moody character from a grimy and realistic world coexist with someone as goofy and unrealistic as Superman?

No, George Clooney. Everyone's favorite Dark Knight.

Meh. I don't care anymore.

I could go for years without seeing another superhero movie.

Also there's small fact that in that continuity Bruce Wayne is broke and legally dead. The last thing I read said they were offering him like 60 million to do it, which is about as absurdly high as you can get without offering him points on the gross, which for something like this they do not want to do.

I like Christian Bale a lot but he was kind of a shitty Batman; the Dark Knight series was really only as strong as each of their antagonists. Ben Affleck has a good face for playing Bruce Wayne and I haven't seen him in enough movies to like or hate him, so i'm pretty indifferent to his casting. Hopefully this movie will be more than a popcorn flick like basically every superhero movie ever.

I've said it before, but there are too many fucking superhero movies.

This is what I'm going to do. It doesn't matter anyway, I'll just end up comparing it to The Dark Night anyway.

That is such a weird choice. He's not bad in all his movies, though. The Town is a good example. And lol @ Kevin Smith. That dude is always tweeting high.
