The Batman: Matt Reeves Is Recasting Ben Affleck

>Matt Reeves is expected to recast Ben Affleck as the lead in his upcoming film, The Batman, according to the latest report. Affleck signed on for the role of the Caped Crusader back in 2013 for Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, an announcement that was met with a fair amount of vitriol from viewers. However, the Oscar-winner ultimately proved to be a strong fit for the part, winning a number of people over in his performances in both Dawn of Justice and this year’s Justice League.

>In a report in Variety detailing a shakeup at WB in the aftermath of Justice League‘s underwhelming box office performance, there is a passage detailing the future of Batman in the DCEU:

>While Ben Affleck is expected to appear as Batman in a standalone Flash movie, it is highly unlikely he will don the cape and cowl in Matt Reeves’ planned standalone Batman movie. The director is said to want to cast the role with fresh talent, according to sources.

RED ALERT RED ALERT

ITS OVER

Who gets to wear the cape and cowl, ya'll?

>Everyone says Ben Afflecks portrayal and character of Batman was the saving grace of Batman V Superman
>Make his character do complete 180 into Tony Stark for Justice League
>fire him

HOW DID THEY FUCK THIS UP

He could have been great with the proper material and competent direction

>fresh talent
>batman
Batman has always been played by a known name.

Hamm looks like the cowl was made for him
Adkins looks the part but is shit at acting/dialogue

OH NO NO NO NO

Snyder Batman is great, Whendon batman sucks ass.

Unironically Keanu.

brolin can't and shouldn't be thanos and batman

Rob Ager's analysis on the situation coming soon!

The more time passes the more people realise that Nolan's trilogy was a fucking miracle. Sure the last part wasn't as good as the previous two. (beginning and dark knight) but compared to the shit we have from DC today ?...It's a quasi masterpiece.

What is the point of that clip you posted? To showcase how good Affleck was as Batman? Because whole scene is done by stuntmen, Ben is there for like 10 seconds

>batman
>guns
no, idiot.
All too old. Hamm would've been perfect
this could actually be kino

Nobody cares for Nolan's bland trilogy, first movie is forgettable, second is loved only because of the Joker and third is popular only on Sup Forums

>Matt Reeves
Oh no he sucks. Why WB can't hire good directors?

I mainly wanted to post it

Also the fighting style I know will be last because its too much for WBs lightness

This scene was my favorite with Bens Bat

>Nobody cares for Nolan's bland trilogy
>bland

Its anything but bland you fucking idiot

Nolan's trilogy is the best thing to come out of the DC world. Sadly, DC is plagued by shit film directors now.

>Nobody cares for Nolan's bland trilogy

normies do and nobody cares about Bane memes outside this board

Normies cared for Joker and that's it

strawmen arguments made by mouseketers!

All movie talk is fucking ruined in this board

I didn't understand your sentence.

keep telling yourself that, Dark Knight Rises made over a billion

And when it meant something!

John Ham is going to be Batman! Fuck Gyllenhaal!
comicbook.com/dc/2017/12/07/batman-jon-hamm-replace-ben-affleck-dc/

Yes, movie that was sequel to the Heath Ledgers Joker made a lot of money, and then was forgotten by everybody

you know what? bring Keaton back. Do it.

>and then was forgotten by everybody
Marvel movies would know a lot about being forgotten shortly wouldn't they?

It is pretty bland actually, especially for a movie based on a superhero comic book character

He's done. It's over.
That Colbert interview destroyed what little he had of his career.
Maybe in 20 when he comes back from Venezuela after being taken off of the Roman Polanski list he'll direct Argo 2.

>Radar Online

That shit is National Enquirer. Automatically false.

>It is pretty bland actually

wow, some idiot in Sup Forums says so, so it must be true! Great argument!

>replace an old Batman
>with an even older Batman
Stop

getting scared already Mickey?

gosling

Well yeah, almost all older Marvel movies that are not part of MCU are forgotten, but that's not the point of discussion

TDK is dated but in a good way. It has a very strong 00s aesthetic with all that steel and blueish grey, themes of terrorism, surveillance and civil courage etc.

Says the guy who reply by insulting

>wanting some chinless soystrogen self-injecting millennial for Batman.
stop

I'm just telling you, man. They never say something that is true.

I'd like Jon Hamm to be Batman. And maybe he will. But the National Enquirer knows shit.

I can't even remember what happened in GOTG2 except for Kurt Russell being in it

People remember Blade than any recent Marvel movie.

4 u is only popular on here but bane was a big normie meme, that mask and the voice was. They even had that filter that puts a mask on you

It was popular for like a month

Okay but who the fuck is the director?

There was golden goddess Debicki. And then the crew split up. And then there were some really forced jokes and songs that didn't really hit home. And then Kurt Russell talks a lot. A disappointing final fight. qt3.14 Mantis. And that's about it.

>It was popular for like a month

not true, Bane was fucking huge that year

This thing is a trainwreck. Just bring back Nolan and Bale and act like this shit didn't happen.

>bane was a big normie meme, that mask and the voice was
I remember going out clubbing that year for New Years, they had a costume theme on and there were 10 or so Banes running around. 5 of them were like 5'4", not big guys at all

He was already casted once

Paul Thomas Anderson

Daniel Day Lewis as The Batman

>This thing is a trainwreck.

all the movies have made money so far to justify sequels, Harley Quinn and Letoker have sold gangbusters with normies.

Remember that the soundtrack for Suicide Squaf outsold most albums with real music that year

Hey, remember when people were screaming that Affleck wanting to jump ship as soon as his contract ends was fake news?

>all fucking white males

Suicide Squad seemed like a huge deal when it came out. So many normies saw it on opening weekend that it actually reduced traffic on the roads in my city.

The hype didn't survive the first weekend, though, and I never saw that kind of hype for a DC movie since then. I can't help but wonder if SS caused more damage than BvS.

Get out of your fucking basement for once, you clueless twat.

Batman can be black the same day when Black Panther is white.

Hamm by far.

Adkins for a younger Bruce.

Probably the same people that were saying the final cut of JL WASN'T two hours long and that cinemas were lying

You CBM fans have short memory. Raimi's Spiderman would be for the ages and reference by future filmmakers. The Dark Knight Trilogy is not as overrated as the entire MCU would lead you to believe. It has more weak parts than it has strong parts. Half of Civil War is literally an Avengers preview.

This. Hamm would never fucking get in shape for the role though.

Marvel still has the only functioning cinematic universe and they're about to wrap it up. I really hope that will be the end of every studio hitting us with a "new and exciting" CU five times a year.
>fucking Dark Universe

Adkins should stick as a stuntman.

>all resemble the source material more than most african american males do
It's not because we hate blacks for fuck's sake, it's because Batman is literally white

Yeah but now its the studio wanting him gone

Studios were still making YA novel adaptions in 2016 after Harry Potter and Hunger Games had finished.

Disappointing. Batfleck is one of the best live-action Batmans ever.

I think I found someone better.

Affleck said he'd be playing Batman as long as they were wanting him. Turns out they're wanting him out because he's a PR nightmare atm.

hence my
>almost all
I know Spiderman and Blade movies are still loved and remembered, but nobody cares for FF, Daredevil. Ghost Rider etc

Chill Nolan

for you

>the only film in which affleck got to actually act like batman was a suicide squad cameo

Wew

>>Everyone says Ben Afflecks portrayal and character of Batman was the saving grace of Batman V Superman
it wasn't. his Batman was fucking retarded.

There was a Daredevil movie?

>hurdur nobudee curs
>grosses 2.5 billion

Affleck isn’t the problem, the script is

>cape and cowl

Ugh, anyone else cringe when these 2 words come up while talking about Batman?

Hamm’s drinking again. WB isn’t going to sign another alkie.

So did Transformers, Nolan

The punches didn't feel heavy enough, And honestly Batman's got to be more OP than that if he wanted to hangout with his JL buddies
Also, batman using guns, not just guns, but fucking two handed assault rifles is the worst thing about him in BvS and JL

Could be cool.

I fucking promise you that what they will do is do Flashpoint and switch to Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Thomas Wayne (the character he played in BvS) as Batman and keep it like that. Screenshot this post, I'm a WB executive :^)

Adkins is the fucking man. I’ll give my left nut for a movie where Batman fights like Boyka.

jon hamm already said he would never lower himself to capeshit

He just hasn’t had a lot of chances to do stuff other than flipping and kicking dudes in the face. He’s got potential.

I guess this is it for the JUSTice league

Kevin Smith is an egregious example

How can a knife penetrate his armor buy a bullet can't?

adkins makes gal gadot look like brando

I’d love to see Gal Gadot look like Brando. Someone give her a cheeseburger or five.

the helmet is armored plated underneath the mask. the neck down isn't armored.

> guy bursts into room
> batman has his back to him
> has a fully automatic M4
> moves it aside and takes out a grenade instead
i don't think this semen slurping universe is me

Nobody cares =/= reflection of quality
People “cared” enough to spend money to see them. I know this is a difficult concept
for you

This isn't Batman, though. This is good choreography, but it's just the Punisher wearing a Batman outfit.

Brawling, stealing guns, killing henchmen left and right? Minimal gadget usage, absolutely no element of stealth apart from the very beginning. He may as well be a superhuman or have special powers; he clearly doesn't believe he's just a man at all, and isn't using fear against his enemies.

Basic and stupid. They saw the Arkham games and just wanted to copy the most banal, boring part about them, the "mash X to do something cool!" combat.

And then forgot them, beside the one with Joker

Justin Theroux pls

Batman Begins was my favorite movie of the Nolan trilogy, and will never be forgotten to me. I say this while hating the current state of affairs in DC with a passion, and while preferring Marvel movies.

Because we've already established guns aren't exactly favorable int heir current predicament and the thug decides to use the big guns. Whats the problem?
