Social Media Uncreativity has already created Trending "Batfleck" as expected.

Maybe they should have cast this way:

It's ridiculous. I think Henry Cavill played a weak Superman. I mean the guy was struggling to lift things in the movie. And c'mon, he could have used his super speed to save his Dad before anyone realized what happened.

I had such high hopes for a Justice League that could blow away Avengers. Now not so much. Give me a moment...Sad

Anyone else playing the same part just feels wrong.
Whenever Bale is mentioned, all I can remember is this.
It's not that Bale is not a fitting actor or bad actor, it's this ridiculous idea that Batman has to wheeze, croak and croup to be the batman. Seriously, wtf...

The five stages of Batman: Affleck denial, Affleck outrage, Affleck Twitter jokes, contrarian Aflleck praise, Affleck acceptance.

Sometimes it feels like I'm almost the only person on the interwebs that doesn't think Christian Bale was that great as Batman (movie was fine, actor could have been better), nor Affleck that bad as Daredevil (given what he had to work with, script-wise)...

Believe me, I know how you feel. I'm on the outs with most of the world for loving "The Tree of Life".

Ben Affleck goes to his mansion, polishes his Oscars, has sex with Jennifer Garner, then looks at his PC and says...

Only "actor" possible worse for the role as batman, would probably be Antonio Banderas..



I do hope they reconsider...

Maybe they meant Ben is going to be a villain? Bruce Wayne's dweebish greedy stockbroker?
Or maybe they're doing meta-gaming casting. Controversy = tickets sold, at least on the first weekend.
I'm kind of surprised that prestigious writer-director Ben accepted that role. Mid-life crisis?

Keep the casting utterly secret.

Movie opens with exciting scene with Batman in costume.

At end of scene, whip off cowl for the reveal.


See how many stay and how many walk out when it's Steve Carrell.
