RavensTillIDie Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 He's actually been a surprisingly good actor in just about every film I've seen him in outside of Twilight. Low key excited about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thumping your chest in a debate over something so trivial gets your rocks off...power to ya. Not saying one is better than the other, but saying Affleck is terrible makes you look even worse. I was trying to have fun with it. You could probably chill out about 300 degrees. Affleck was indeed terrible. He's a terrible actor in general, and he wasn't good as Batman. Michael Keaton was phenomenal as Batman. Also, if you actually look at any "popular" list of who the best 'batmen' are, Keaton is always ahead of Affleck. It's not only my opinion, it's the opinion of most other people as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, Clooney was AWFUL. Kilmer was fine. Keaton = <3 Clooney was for sure the worst. Best Bruce Wayne on paper. Didn't carry it through.

You're definitely in the minority on this. Affleck is universally regarded as the sole positive of BvS. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any actor could have saved that awful, awful movie. I was expecting it to be better than the negative hype when I finally saw it, but nah. And yeah, Affleck has his bad movies for sure, but he's generally pretty good as an actor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keaton was better, and he was atypical for the part. Pattinson is atypical as well, and I'm hoping he can do at least as well as Keaton. *Just remembered Affleck was in Phantoms. I stand by him being a bad batman, but he was in Phantoms. I'll back off. Edited May 17, 2019 by nagahide13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can dislike Affleck's Batman but the consensus was that he did a good job (great in BvS, decent in JL). I don't think anyone is calling him the best. I also am cautiously optimistic about Pattinson. I want to see where it goes with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My OP was that Keaton was the best and he was atypical, and that I didn't like Affleck and he was "perfect" for the role. I thus though Pattinson deserves a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninerholic Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 When I first heard that Heath Ledger was going to be the joker I though he was gunna be terrible. I was obviously wrong. So I’ll definitely hold off judging this decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
