The actor, who has taken over from Christian Bale as Batman, is said to be frustrated with how David Goyer’s script is shaping up, according to Cinematallica. The production has also been delayed after the film’s release was pushed back to May 6, 2016, and Affleck is reportedly concerned that the new shoot schedule will clash with his plans to direct the adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s Live By Night later this year.

Good, he wouldn't make a good Batman anyway.

[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;43628588]Good, he doesn't make a good Batman anyway.[/QUOTE] How come i knew this would be the first comment.

Because it's true. He doesn't have the build for it and he doesn't have the attitude for it. He's too sarcastic. Hell, he'd make a better Spiderman or Deadpool, if there weren't already good people for those roles.

I wouldn't be surprised if Goyer's script was turning out to be a turd. [editline]22nd January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=DeVotchKa;43628597]Because it's true.

I'm sure Affleck would tone down his 'attitude' for the Dark Knight. [editline]22nd January 2014[/editline] Devin Faraci of Badass Digest is saying that the 'Affleck quitting' rumor is bullshit on his twitter.

David Goyer confirmed to be the film's main villain. [QUOTE]frustrated with how David Goyer’s script is shaping up[/QUOTE] This does not bode well.

The vast majority of other forms that Batman can be portrayed as aren't usually Bruce Wayne. Batman has pretty much remained a constant, one that an actor like Affleck doesn't fit in with. Don't get me wrong, the guy is a good actor and I like his movies but he's no Batman.

Lets hope this rumor is true, because we don't want him anyway.

I keep expecting moviepoopchute references. I keep getting disappointed.

[QUOTE=varg666;43628788]Lets hope this rumor is true, because we don't want him anyway.[/QUOTE] If Affleck is being honest, the script is probably more of a problem than him.

[QUOTE=varg666;43628818]Rate me dumb, but can it be both?[/QUOTE] I doubt it. Ben Affleck as Batman is one thing but Goyer's bad script can totally fuck up a film from its core.

[QUOTE=varg666;43628818]Rate me dumb, but can it be both?[/QUOTE] Not really when the script is the core of the movie that can't easily be changed.

[QUOTE=kimchimafia;43628843]I doubt it. Ben Affleck as Batman is one thing but Goyer's bad script can totally fuck up a film from its core.[/QUOTE] Case in point, Man of Steel.

He seriously can look anorexic one year and built like a tank the next year.

I've never even heard of the source this is citing , and it looks like shit lol. Yeah this is more than likely just another dumb random website trying to generate hits with a fake rumor, or someone with a totally bogus source. You're gonna see a lot more of this as it gets closer to release.

Well, this thread basically begs for this as much as I hate FG. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Xy5C-0P0zs&safe=active[/media]

Good Affleck, you're better than this. Don't star in a Hack Snyder movie.

[img]http://www.laznoticias.com.mx/images/Notas/Curiosas/batman_bin_suparman.jpg[/img] just get this guy and you won't have to worry about either

[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;43628588]Good, he wouldn't make a good Batman anyway.[/QUOTE] Just like when people said Ledger would make a shit Joker. Whoops, funny how that turned out... that being said, I don't approve Affleck as Batman simply because he's already played one superhero.

i thought goyer wasn't writing the script anymore? or was it someone else, and goyer was who they changed it to?

To all the people who complain about Ben Affleck not being serious enough for Batman : [t]http://batman-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Michael-Keaton-Batman-01.jpg[/t] [t]http://bloody-disgusting.com/photosizer/upload/beetlejuice090511.jpg[/t] Same actor.

Excuse my ignorance but what's the reason they didnt cast Bale again for the role of Batman?
