don't you remember Dare Devil?
it was horrible and we hoped that Ben Affleck would stay away from super hero-esque movies forever
Dare Devil was an awful character to make a movie about in the first place. Honestly as long as he doesn't try to muffle his voice by making it sound gritty and uninterpretable, he can be batman all the fuck he wants. Christian Bale is the crazy fuck Gotham doesn't deserve.

Oh dear god you just brought back terrible memories
This is horrible
I don't know why everyone is freaking out, Affleck will probably do a good job.
He's got impressive movies too, you know.

It seems he's just lacking a decent record for coming off as a serious, imposing character. Considering that's one of the essential factors of Batman's character as the Dark Knight...
Not sure if late but he's going to be batman in a justice league movie also
Well he does have two oscars so I'm sure he's capable of pulling off a [I]deep and troubled character[/I] such as Batman without too much issue.

You should check out The Town for a badass Affleck
Yet it doesn't compare the manly, strong feel Batman has to give

The idea that Ben is approach the gig the same way that he did an entire decade ago is ridiculous
It also needs to be considered that the director plays a huge part in directing the actors on how to act in each take

Christian Bale is manly and strong? Michael Keaton is manly and strong?!

Christopher Nolan. Tim Burton. Now Snyder...

Heath Ledger didn't have the decent record for coming off as a maniacal clown. Considering that's one of the essential factors of Joker's character as the Clown Prince of Crime.
You'd think that Batman fans would have learned by now.

Damn I didn't mean completely like that
I hope you understand what I mean
Paul Reubens would have been a better choice. Would love to hear him say to Superman, "I know you are but what am I?"
There's always a shitload of critique when certain actors are announced for certain roles. As far as I can recall, people weren't too excited for Bale's batman, nor Heath Ledger's joker either. Look how that turned out. Wait till the movie comes out, or at least the trailer to start judging it this harshly.

Until I googled it, I was confusing Dare Devil for Hellboy and wondering what everyone was complaining about.
I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt
Everyone remember how terrible Johnny Storm was? And everyone remember how great Captain America is?
The basis of a good Superhero is largely affected by script. We shouldn't judge Affleck just from Daredevil.

Especially since it was 10 years ago, and by the time the movie comes out, 12.
Is it just me or does Ben Affleck have an annoying chin.
Like fuck I don't want to be seeing that in a batman mask for 2 hours.

To be fair Christian Bale was a horrible Batman.
It was him as Bruce Wayne that saved it IMO.
