So recently there's been news of Ben Affleck having a lot of creative control over the DCEU.

How do you guys feel about this? Personally I have a lot of faith in Affleck and have a feeling he may be able to turn the DCEU around.

Bump.

Thank goodness then, Because the guy is actually a very good director.

I can deal with some Liberal slant for a good DC movie

Bump.

Great

Not really sure how he views these characters but almost anything has got to be better than Snyder at this point.

Ah i got the news he is directing Batman film .

batman controls the JL...........inside and outside

Ben being an executive producer doesn’t really say much. Chris Nolan, far more accomplished and experienced a producer, served as one on MOS, but that was CLEARLY Zack’s movie. Also, Ben said a while back that he enjoys working in the DCEU and is excited for the plans moving forward; adding that he felt inspired by Zack’s vision as a director. And let’s not forget that Zack himself is serving as an executive producer for both Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman (and also possibly Aquaman), so Ben serving as one for JLPO, again, doesn’t say much.

I just hope this is strictly a Ben Affleck-thing and not a Batman thing. The last thing I want to see is an overrated cinematic version at the center of everything when in truth, he should be mostly sidelined for survival reasons. BVS did a great job of showing that in the final fight. Batman had a plan to stop Doomsday, but it backfired and he was almost killed. Also, while Superman and Wonder Woman were putting in the effort of trying to kill Doomsday, Batman was just trying to stay alive. I really hope that remains consistent throughout this universe. I really do. I love Batman, but he really needs to be downplayed.

Just let Snyder go. It will be better for everyone. Fans, The movies and even Snyder himself.

@ultra_beleco: That's what I want. WB are the ones that won't let him go.

Can Ben Affleck run over Snyder with the Batmobile?

has nothing to do with talent. ben affleck is a high ranked in the hollywood's occult.

I think he will be amazing as a writer, director and actor.

Can it really be any worse than what we already got? I think not.

I think the kitchen is pretty big. Another cook won't hurt. I still like what Snyder has done, but his vision might not be right for all characters.
