He was a good Batman, problem is they would have to reboot the character eventually because of what age they brought Affleck to play Bruce Wayne in as, he would've only had a limited time with the character then you would've been having a Hugh Jackman/Wolverine the last five years scenario with him. They also made him look completely weak, old, and breaking down in Justice League which didn't help his character either.

Blame that second part on Joss Whedons shit. He definitely was older more battle worn. Similar to The Dark Knight returns.

I think Reeves will do great...I'm excited yet bummed because JL was watered down and the casting of these characters was good. So far now it's Aquaman and Wonder Woman left. Think they redo everyone else and stick to individual movies

Gimme John Krasinski or Adam Driver or Jon Hamm if we're gonna go with an older BW/Bats.

I can't respect anyone with a full back tattoo as Batman.

I love John Krasinski, but it's really hard for me to picture Jim Halpert as Batman.

LOL I gotcha...but then I watched A Quiet Place and I was like yeah he could pull it off.

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor is way worse than Affleck as Batman.

Still waiting until they make a standalone movie about Lex Luthor and recast it.

Just call it LUTHOR. Show him growing up, how he becomes a monster. Do it Breaking Bad style. Smallville tried - but it could be done way better.

That was a damn good movie. He was also good in 13 Hours. Which was also pretty good.

The Affleck Batman looked stupid anyway. Looked like a middle-aged dad-bod who ate too many Donuts before stuffing into his bat suit.

He looks just fine in the Batman movies physically. I think people are just suffering from exhaustion of seeing Ben Affleck in stuff. Kind of like what happened to Tom Cruise

IMO this is outstanding news. I loved Matt Reeves' Planet of the Apes sequels and think he'll do an outstanding job with the Batman franchise . Read an article saying its being described as more "noir" Batman where he is more of a detective so that's definitely interesting.

also as far as Affleck being recast , thank god. Its time to give the role to a younger/much hungrier actor.
My problem and solely my opinion. The only good Batman outside of JL animated series is the old man Batman. Bring on Terry McGinnis Batman and a elderly Bruce Wayne.
