Is Matt Damon cast as “Robin?”

[who knows what evil?]

Geek websites now working...fanboys are PISSED!

Confirmed: NOT satire. Reported as a blue-eyed fact on Ain’t It Cool News.

Not sure they made the right choice.

[EEGator]

It’s getting quite sad.

Daredevil star Ben Affleck says he will never step into superhero tights ever again.

"By playing a superhero in Daredevil, I have inoculated myself from ever playing another superhero. Wearing a costume was a source of humiliation for me and something I wouldn't want to do again soon."

Never mind.

actually i can see affleck as the perfect dorothy in a remake of Oz

[DManA]

I see his character is Raymond Sellars. Is that the slimy businessman? Keaton can play a good slimy guy.

One thing about a remake, there’s no such thing as a spoiler. Everyone knows what’s going to happen.

[al baby]

He is too much a dough boy for that role

[tanknetter]

Is Matt Damon cast as “Robin?”

No. Batgirl.

Not exactly what I would call an inspired choice. Hell, they could have gone back to George Clooney and probably done at least slightly better. It should have been Bale, and even if the $50 million turn-down story is true Nolan could have made it worth his while from a plot/story point of view.

My teens hated Man of Steel, they said it was incoherent, dark and ultimately boring because the action scenes where just too long.

[Salamander]

Solely for the unscripted ad-lib “I’m Batman”.

[Salamander]

Bale owned it, much like he does every other character he plays.

“The Machinist” was incredible.

[Oztrich Boy]

Robert Lowery was the greatest Fatman

[DManA]

Boring is right. Even the fight scene at the end. After about 45 minutes I said ENOUGH, just finish this.

[USNBandit]

He was pretty bad ass in “Gigli.”

[Timber Rattler]

Way to kill the franchise, Hollywood!

[Timber Rattler]

Backroom deal by his publicists and agents trying to jumpstart his otherwise dead career.

[Jonty30]

Probably, but does he have to destroy a franchise in the process?

B. Affleck Baffling Pick For Batman As Bale Bails

[ClearBlueSky]

I`m no Batman fan but Affleck is to acting what wet bread is to a sandwich.AND he looks `slow ` and dim. But hey...maybe Superman will kill him!
