Re: Man of Steel 2 (Superman/Batman--Official title to be confirmed)
Cranston is in the lead for Luthor

And so begins round 2 of yet another freak out of a cast in the Batman world.
Let's not forget the "wonderful" reaction of all the fans to Heath playing Joker. Gotta give Ben the benefit of the doubt.

It's apples and oranges. People couldn't imagine Heath as The Joker because no one had any idea what the make-up would look like, how he would portray the character, etc. They basically looked at Nicholson's Joker and replaced him with Heath and thought "Oh hell no!".
Which is the biggest difference between that character and Bruce Wayne/Batman. Ben Affleck is gonna be Ben Affleck. Period. He's pretty much the same dude in damn near every movie he makes. He's not a character actor (like Heath) so he's not going to develop a persona to play the role. It's just gonna be HIM.
Same goes for Batman. It's gonna be him in a suit. And that's evident in the Daredevil movie, regardless of the script. It's Ben Affleck being Ben Affleck with other characters in the movie calling him Matt Murdock/Daredevil. The script didn't say "Be yourself Ben, F-it!" so it's not because of that.
Terrible choice, on par IMO with Kilmer who never fit the role either.
We don't disagree on much VDG, but I don't think I've seen a post yet defending Green Lantern....People that are going to bag DD / Affleck - & defend 'Green Lantern' / Reynolds - need one of these:
You know that Warner Bros. animation and the directors of those animated films wanted Keaton to play the Dark Knight Returns Joker right? That would have been weird.
So the word now is that Snyder will direct JL, while Affleck will direct the next solo Bat flick.
I've pinpointed the exact moment that I began hating Ben Affleck.

Incidentally, it's also the exact moment that i began to hate Liv Tyler...
...and that godawful Aerosmith song.
I can see Affleck pulling off the "millionaire playboy" role, but only genuinely. A dark and disturbed vigilante that pretends to be a millionaire playboy? Not so much.
His chin should look good in a cowl though.
I love that song
