I agree with megaprime and tlasjr.

Won't judge Ben until I see him. He's a hell of a lot better an actor than like... everyone... gives him credit for. And at this point I pretty much feel everyone bashing him is basically like bashing Gobots. Doing it only because it's what the "cool kids" do.

It's also hilarious how everyone blaims Afleck for Daredevil being bad. Last I was aware he didn't do anything but act in it. To my knowledge he didn't write or produce it, and I know he didn't direct it.
That's like saying Shia Labouf is responcible for Revenge of the Fallen being one of the worst movies ever made, when all he did was just act in a role. Or Hugh Jackman is at fault for Wolverine Origins being so terrible.

I'm disappointed they didn't go with Joseph Gordon Levitt (But of course, I'm also still disappointed they didn't name Levitt's character Terry McGuiness), but I won't hold that against Afleck. Another way to look at it is maybe this means they're going to keep the two franchises separate. Superman doesn't really fit very will in the Nolen Batman set up, and this could be their effort to make Batman usable for a Justice League movie.

And this conversation is the first I've *ever* seen anyone suggest that writing and directing a movie is a step down. That's just friggin' rediculous AND hilarious.
