I can't do it. Still not giving Ben Affleck credit. Batman looks good in that latest trailer but that's not due to Ben, that's just due to good directing. Bruce Wayne still looks like a chump though and that's all Ben Affleck. People were wrong about Heath Ledger when they shyt on the pick originally......true. But when it was time for the Joker to perform that was all Heath and no one could deny it. Unfortunately because of that, people that were in the Ben camp from the start are gonna act like some stuntman jumping through that window and kicking ass is the same thing as Heath Ledger putting on an oscar worthy performance as the Joker when it isn't. fukk it.....what's done is done.....

What's now changed exactly?

Affleck isn't the stuntman in the suit or the one who's doing the stunts for the action scenes :mjlol:, that could be any actor :mjlol:


That now = a good performance and proves he was a good and the correct choice for the role? :what:

Hey, that trailer speaks for itself. That Batman leap through the window and laying the smack down was straight out of the Arkham videogame series. That Wonder Woman leap into the fray was beautiful. Batman blocking Superman's hand and the stunned look on Supes' face. That's coming from Zack Snyder.

Damn, it just dawned on me that Affleck is hands down the worst actor they've cast as Batman in the modern era.

Keaton, Kilmer, Clooney, and Bale are ALL far superior actors than Affleck has ever shown himself to be.

Affleck isn't horrible, but he's limited as fukk and really only seems capable of putting in a good performance in films where he's involved with the writing or directing.

This is some sad shyt, grown ass men are really mad about the casting of some one who they will be dikk riding once he does good in the role. you nerds said the same about ledger, and we seen how that turned out. Ya'll:umad:

Well he definitely has the look, the more I see these the more I'm starting to see why he was chosen. You know what fukk it, I'll even go as far to say if the script is great for once, then I think Ben Affleck migh pull of the shocker performance of that year.

Two years from now, this thread will be great to look back on. Just to compare people's reactions. Who was right and who was wrong? What were people's reactions in 2013 and what were people's reactions in 2015? It's gonna be a trip. :wow:

I can't wait for his Interview in Mens Health where he will say 'yeah I put on 30lbs of Muscle in 5 months by just hard work and chicken breast and broccoli' :mjpls:

But I'm hoping Affleck knocks it out of the park. I'm on his side here. I want to see him succeed. He came back from a lot of shyt to becoming one of the most respected actors and directors in Hollywood. I'd just love to look back on this and be like "Hmmm. I was right." :obama:

No one said anything about Hugh Jackman having "the look" of Wolverine because no one knew who the hell Hugh Jackman was and the pictures of him that existed at the time of his casting didn't scream "Wolverine!" at all especially considering he was damn near twice as tall as Wolverine was supposed to be. The primary talk was that he was a desperation choice because the original dude they cast (Dougray Scott) backed out in order to do the Mission Impossible sequel.

Daniel Craig got shytted on for being too blond, his eyes were blue, he was not conventionally attractive enough, he was too buff. Basically he didn't fit the established look that fandom had of James Bond.
And RDJ was a total :what: when he was cast because at the time RDJ was a 2nd tier actor who was looked at as a lot of wasted talent due to his battle with drugs. before getting Iron Man RDJ was playing nothing but supporting roles so it was that people hated the casting, everyone was just completely shocked. But because no one really was giving two shyts about Iron Man at the time the reaction was completely muted.

Affleck was not the problem with Daredevil. Take a look at the majority of reviews for the movie and most critics pointed to Afflecck as being one of the positives of the film. Daredevil suffered greatly from too much studio interference so that was was released to audiences was a crappy b*stardized version of what was intended for the movie.

And people really need to stop trying to act like Batman is this role for the ages like Othello or something. There has not been a truly great Batman performance from any of the dudes who played the part in the movies. The actors have all done well as Bruce Wayne to varying degrees but Batman has never been a role that has set the world on fire. So what exactly is being a convincing Batman? Because aside from George Clooney's hamming it up in that disaster he starred in Batman is not some difficult part to portray.

I love how people think it takes Daniel Day Lewis type of skills to play fukken batman.

And let's not act like Christian Bale raised the bar. I have faith Affleck will do a good to great job. Especially with the back lash.

I'm not gone listen to any you fakkits a month before the movie comes out. Last time I let ya tell me the movie sucked and it happen to be the best movie out this summer. Ya'll ain't gone get me twice.

I was hating at first, but the more I see it, you can see he was getting ready for the Bat in Gone Girl. I think he's a great actor, and the hate I hate for him about 10 years ago is gone. I can definitely see him playing Bats. Probably gonna be first in line, even if Man of Steel was a bit disappointing.
