I haven't had a chance to see it yet, but I picked up The Town over the weekend....I hear he is tough and gritty in that too.
Ill never understand people saying "this is BEAST!" LOL what the hell does that even mean...that it's good? How does that make sense?
Back to Affleck, yes The Town was a good movie. Im usually not a fan of Ben or even Renner but they were both good. That's why I trust in his directing.
Kinda old news, sorry if this has already been posted."I think one of the most important parts of playing Batman is to make a good Bruce Wayne. I think he'll make Bruce smart. I've heard him talk about it."

Zombie Frankenstein on Ben Affleck as Batman:
"arrrgh....urrrrrr.....I....hope he can capture the nuances of the character but I think this will be a good role for him.....brains."
If anyone understands the Batman character then it's Zombie Frankenstein.
How smart Affleck's Batman is depends on how smart Goyer's script is (that sound you hear is the snarky laughter of a million Goyer haters). There are actors who convey great intelligence innately; I don't really think Affleck is one of them, but that's not me saying he comes across dumb.
First time I read that. Thanks for the find.Justin Timberlake about Ben Affleck as Batman:

Bad meaning bad-ass. Beast just doesn't make any sense.It's just a colloquialism, kinda like some people use "bad" to mean "awesome", like in "Shaft, he's one BAD *shutyourmouth!*.
Affleck is an actor...He can ACT intelligent...surely?
Even Arnold Schwarzenegger can act intelligent.
Arnold is such a great actor that he can play average American characters with average American names, despite having a thick Austrian accent. You can see that comparing these two is not fair to Ben.
I'm growing more and more comfortable with Affleck as time goes on. I'm not exactly pumping fist for Batfleck, but I'm not hating either.
