Ben Affleck Is the New Batman

Because of South Park, when I hear about Ben Affleck, I think of this

And this...

I didn't think they'd be able to do any worse than Val Kilmer or Clooney as Batman. I was wrong.
 
No words...

When guys at worked emailed this to me I read the topic and just assumed it was a joke.
 
I'm still not sure how he can play an "old" Batman since he is only 2yrs older than Bale. In the Dark Knight Returns story Batman is in his 60's iirc.
 

Hahahhahaha. Ben Affleck is one of my favorite actors, but I just don't see how he can be the Batman.

The wonders of make-up.

I still don't know why everyone is hating on Ben. Maybe he'll be a good portrayal of the character.
 
Some of these tweets are good:

"I've just seen Christian Bale going to Affleck's apartment with some Huey Lewis records and an axe."

"Casting Ben Affleck as Batman sounds like something The Joker would do to create a distraction at the nerd bank."

"Spend ten years working your way back into everyone's good graces. Win an Oscar. Then you get cast as Batman, and BAM! You're Gigli again."

"Holy shit... BEN AFFLECK IS THE NEW BATMAN!!! Do you know what this means? It means that I've seen Batman naked!!!"

"For those wondering why Ben Affleck would agree to be in this movie, I have the answer. my 10-year-old just asked: who's Ben Affleck?"

"Affleck gonna be like "It's the Jokah! Or the Riddlah! Rahbin! Call Commissionah Gahden!"

*IN TEARS* You know what, I slept on the #Batfleck thing, and think it may work... *PUTS GUN IN MOUTH* *PULLS TRIGGER*

*GOES TO HEAVEN* *BEN AFFLECK IS ALSO ST. PETER* *PUTS GUN IN MOUTH* *PULLS TRIGGER*

"In the Ben Affleck version, Batman's parents kill themselves."

"Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne? RT if you don't want to live on this planet anymore. (And want us to help with that.)"

"All I’m saying is not even Pol Pot cast Affleck as Batman."

Anything can happen, personally I actually like Ben Affleck, I just thought it a strange choice but like they say, the proof is in the pudding. He could be the best Batman yet, we'll just have to wait and see.
 
I have a funny idea that this won't be the worst movie in the world. The internet might just have to swallow it's tongue if he pulls this off.

It is also Zack Snyder making this film. He's pretty good when it comes to comic book/fantasy movies. They aren't always the best movies that I have ever seen, but they sure as hell are the most interesting.
 
Saw this posted on another forum

Ben Affleck responds to criticisms of him being cast as Batman/Bruce Wayne in Man of Steel sequel!
