His only success has come when he's attached himself to the likes of Jennifer A, John G, Matt D, etc, etc.

Hollywood Land, Clerks 2, Jay and Silent Bob Strikes back were not garbage - you just seem to have a grudge against the actor - which is fine for you - but your wrong if you think he's not any good as an actor.

Let's face it, they used armor costumes for a reason in these movies. It's bulks up the actors when they appear as Batman.

That fan film Batman Dead End was kind of getting at what I'm talking about.

So basically you want Van Diesel or The Rock to play Batman? Be Interesting that's for sure..

Anyhow, I don't need to see every movie Affleck has made the last several years to understand why his movies fail. I seen him in enough stuff to know he sucks, and seen the results of his last several movies even if I didn't see them personally. I suppose you have a better reason why his films are failing for so long, or is your reasoning that audiences everywhere don't like him becuase they saw DD ten years ago? ... Okay, everybody, go see Affleck as Batman because DD wasn't his fault, even though all of his movies are flops. He really is a good actor that people love, he's just misunderstood somehow....

You could always save up like 10 billion dollars and buy out Time Warner then you can make these movies anyway you want....

What are you, his ex-wife, that you like to keep criticizing him?

Chasing Amy is another one of Affleck's better films.

Agreed. Not to mention, he only had cameos in Clerks 2 and Jay and Silent Bob. Apparently, his mere presence in one scene is enough to turn an entire film to sh1t. Not that this guy's even seen the films he's slamming apparently. He just knows LOL. That must be some good tasting Hateraid.

It's nothing personal. I don't have a grudge against him. I just don't want to see him f up both the superman and batman franchises, which will mostly likely be the outcome if he's in the film for more than 5 minutes. There's a 1000 guys in Hollywood can do what he's done as an actor, 1000 more that could do it better....just saying.

no, those are your words, not mine. But to your point and some others...if his presence was worth much then the films would have done much better.

No, not either of those guys, they do not look like Bruce Wayne, nor is their presence and demeanor.

I would probably be looking at someone totally new and body builders is where I would start.

hahaha....

I don't like to keep criticizing him. I laid one complaint and some people took it personal somehow. I guess they haven't seen the thousands upon thousands or criticism of Affleck floating around every page of the internet the last 48 hours.

You pointed to films he did cameos in as examples of his bad movies. I deduced that your point was that even as cameos he can ruin films. But then, you'd have to actually see these films to know for sure. It gets tricky when critiquing something you have no real knowledge of.
