I is realised I have never written a geek post. I’m not that huge a geek but I’m kinda one. Big news today! Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in Man of Steel 2. And the whole world went bananas.
Their reaction was a straight sharp pitch voice that a baby can try to produce.
NO!
Simply cause Ben Affleck played Daredevil poorly does not mean he will play batman poorly. Ladies and gentlemen, give the man a chance. I will tell you why you should.
DC already screwed this up with rushing the production of man of steel 2 and also the impending Justice League movie. They can’t really screw it up any further. Ben Affleck played Daredevil like what? Ten years ago. Do you not know that acting skills can be improved and that people do learn from their mistakes? Before Bale was in the Prestige or The Machinist, I mean did anyone really know him as a great actor?
Personally I would love Bale to continuing playing batman. He will easily outshine Henry Cavill. But sometimes not everything goes your way. So why not give it a try? It might be bad but… it might be good. You never know.
