No, he's just having a bit of fun. Never once has he made a remark that even slightly resembled that of a troll. Lighten up, Esteban.

Castro, calling me a troll just because you love Cuaron's Gravity and I don't is not precisely smart, and completely false.
I only troll you because you act like an irrational fanboy, there's a difference.

I'm not a fanboy, Esteban. I haven't seen the movie. I don't blindly defend shit. I'm actually known for fucking with people like that(back on the old Hobbit forum). YOU, on the other hand, are hating a movie without having seen it. You're just as bad as they are. And just as obnoxious.

You call this trolling? That's just your defense mechanism for when you want to feel superior to the person you're arguing with, so you try and dismiss it all as "trolling". You're pathetic.

And Heath was a crap Batman. He looked just like the freaking Joker.
Still better than Bale, though.

Fine with it. If it doesn't work it will be due to poor direction or editing, not Affleck.

I cant wait to see what Affleck brings to the table as an older Batman. People keep bringing up "Daredevil" as the reason why he won't be a good Batman. Absolutely stupid. Daredevil wasn't great, but it wasnt terrible. The director's cut is worth buying. I loved Chasing Amy, Changing Lanes, The Town, Argo, and even Paycheck. The guy has 2 Oscars for a reason. People need to stop crying over Bale, because he turned down the part. And let's not forget that people cried over Keaton, Ledger, and Bale when they got their roles for Batman.

Sep 25 - 03:26 AM

Jeff Goldblum

It ah shows how fickle people are when ah they complained about Bale and his ah throat cancer voice when he was... batman BATMAN and ah now they ah beg for him to come back.

Sep 25 - 06:22 AM

Bale was an okay Batman in great Batman movies. When it comes to the Bat, Michael Keaton and Kevin Conroy are the best.

Sure, Daredevil was shit. However, I'm not going to ditch this decision until I see a trailer. I think he's grown substantially, and there is a chance that the results here may be entertaining. That's my take.

If you look at Ben affleck now he has become a really good director and actor he may pull it off well. just like heath ledger when even heard that heath ledger is the new joker he got a lot of hate but when the movie came out every one felt like idiots.

You're not alone. People have been trashing Affleck for Daredevil, but that was TEN YEARS AGO!!! If they would look at his more recent stuff, he's improved a lot! I'm give him a chance. Plus, nobody thought Heath Ledger would be good as The Joker. Same thing with Michael Keaton and Christian Bale as Batman.
