I don't think he's a good choice. I'm not even that familiar with Affleck's work except Pearl Harbour, Armageddon and Dare Devil (I haven't watched ANY of those movies all the way through, I just watched bits and pieces of them and he didn't exactly capture my interest) he just doesn't strike me as a Batman. Nothing moody or imposing about him. I heard they wanted to feature an older Batman, but I was picturing someone a bit more rough and rugged, like maybe Liev Schreiber.
I suggest watching Hollywoodland, a generally overlooked film for which Affleck received a Hollywood Film Award, Volpi Cup Award and Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor and was nominated for the same for the Critics Choice Award, Chicago Film Critics Association Award, and Golden Globes Award. It's probably the most relevant work as he portrays the real life actor George Reeves who played Superman on the old black and white television series and was somewhat of a dark and brooding character in both the movie and real life....My suggestion, watch Dogma, and Good Will Hunting...
So let me get this right. You're basing your opinion on him acting this particular role, whilst not being familiar with his works, nor watching any of his movies all the way through? Logic flaw, I think haha. My suggestion, watch Dogma, and Good Will Hunting, though I'm glad to see you've seen Armageddon. Three amazing movies, mainly because of Affleck. Just a suggestion
Terrible choice, so bad. Who is casting these people? I'm a pretty big Batman fan so this kinda urks me. WE ALL REMEMBER DAREDEVIL DON'T WE!? I can only think of one movie where I thought Ben Affleck was good, and that was The Town.
I think what people liked about bale was wayne, not batman.

... Oh wait.. I forgot it's considered a good movie because six pack abs and explosions. Forgive my blasphemy!
Personally I come for the spandex.Is there any other reason to watch a superhero movie?
