Make it happen, DC!

 :o



with the success of faora, i think they should roll the dice on  Kara Zor-El, a bit of a dark supergirl / amazonian instead of catwoman but i can just live with her in the universe if it goes down.

Fat Boy is already complaining the suit is too tight on him, and is hating it ,

According to some reports, Ben Affleck is not loving the batsuit he is forced to use for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. The Oscar winner actor-director needs help from several assistants to remove and put back on the cumbersome suit.

But if the reports are true, is Batfleck acting like a diva? After all, he is part of a multimillion franchise here and he did join the cast willingly. For fans who were vehemently opposed to Affleck’s casting in the first place, this sounds like a lot of whining.

Of course, Ben Affleck is playing a new version of the Caped Crusader — big shoes to fill in the absence of Christian Bale, who played the character in the Dark Knight trilogy — in Zack Snyder’s Batman v Superman. On May 13, the director shared a teaser of what the batsuit looks like this time around.

According to Metro, Affleck is finding the suit incredibly restrictive and is struggling with coming to terms about how it feels to wear it on a daily basis. Insiders told the Daily Mail that he is has trouble breathing while wearing the batsuit.

    “The suit is extremely restrictive. Ben finds it hard to perform basic tasks and struggles to look natural. He’s constantly trying to avoid going to the toilet because it’s such an ordeal.”

Taking off and putting on the batsuit reportedly takes about 30 minutes, so it’s a chore. It’s also probably very hot in Detroit right now since they are in the middle of summer. But Affleck is not the only one wearing a heavy, hot suit for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Henry Cavill, who plays Superman, wears a similar costume and did so graciously for Man of Steel.

Isn't Affleck (192 cm) bigger than Cavill?

When was Batman bigger than Supes?

hahaha, this is bullshit. i'm not a ben fan but the guy built his own bat cave and lobbied for the role. i doubt he'd cry about anything.  my concern would be the warrior suit falling off of gabot when she moves, since there is no ass and tits to hold it up.

They said the same thing about Michael Keaton.

Hell, they said it about Heath Ledger as the Joker. If you want to keep it recent.

No desire what so ever to see Ben attempt this roll, he is a douche and who ever thought this might be a good idea probably has downs.

Obviously no one chose him, he chose it.  After winning the Oscar for Argo he was able to write his own tickets in Hollywood.  probably thought he'd be great in the role and called the producer and said "shalome, put me in the lead role".

Keaton was the best Batman in my opinion.

Bale was the best BW.

Possibly.

The only point I'm really making is that waiting until the finished product is done is the intelligent course of action.

Wait and see is what you do.

Very very difficult seeing Affleck as Bruce Wayne / Bats

Judged by his demeanor and acting from all his earlier films.

Josh Brolin on the other hand is more serious and fits the bill as the Dark Knight.

I actually thought he would have been a good choice as well, but I will reserve judgement.

I hated The Dark Knight Rises, so I'm lukewarm to the whole thing anyway.

if the guy can win an oscar, then he can act.  btw, gadot for all her skinniness is a bigger woman than faora but is a "B" level actress.  I hope the classes are working out.  

 


antje was all costume in MOS.

i still don't like her look, but based on New 52's WW, she is a fit with another 15 lbs or so.

true but affleck's following in some big footsteps.
 Keaton was the first to bring the character to life in a big budget hollywood movie and people had their ideal in mind.
 Affleck failed miserably with his portrayal of a lesser superhero character in daredevil and from his past movies there's nothing bruce wayne/batman in him unlike say brolin who fits the bill obviously.

Seems for every successful actor playing batman the next would be a flop.  Just look at Kilmer. Horrible, Clooney, same shit.

Kilmer didn't bother me at all.

The only problem with those 2 Batman movies was Joel Schumacher... The campy Batman style had gone out back in the 70s and him trying to bring it back screwed the franchise.

I don't get the need for a batman vs. superman movie in the first place.  This is not a precursor to the JL so it's kind of lame.  At least have Superman fight Doomsday or Darkseid before bringing in Batman.  The producers should have fought hard for Bale just for some consistency.  Is Affleck even going to do the JL movies?  Having Lex be the villain.  Yawn.  So tired of it.

Yep.

As soon as this hits the theaters, or even before that, they should announce a reeboot of Batman with Josh.
