>Word broke recently that Affleck would no longer direct the film, and that Matt Reeves will be his likely successor. With directing and most of the writing responsibilities of his plate, things seemed to be looking up for the film with Affleck’s workload being cut considerably. However, the latest rumor points to him wanting to eliminate that workload altogether.

>On the latest episode of Collider Movie Talk, host John Campea stated he has heard from three separate sources involved with Warner Bros. over the last four days that Affleck is looking to leave the role of Batman. Along with a warning to take what he’s heard with a grain of salt, Campea said:

>“Ben Affleck, make no mistake, he wants out. He doesn’t want to be Batman anymore.”

>Campea went on to say his sources tell him Affleck is in discussions with Warner Bros. to get out of his deal to continue playing the character, which includes The Batman, but if a deal cannot be reached in time, the solo film will be the last appearance he makes as the character.

Wtf is going on at dc/wb?

Enough with warner brothers.

Shit like this is what makes their movies stink. Same thing happened with suicide squad, could have been great if it wasn't for everyone behind the scenes being a fucking retard. Just do your job right.

Just get Karl Urban instead.

I'm going to blame Affleck for this, honestly. There were reports that he was rewriting his scenes of BvS on-set. If that's the case, how could he have let this fly? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJfIg8fXM-w

What happened?

How were the Nolan movies made without as much as a hint of scandal, while nearly every DC movie now is a disaster

Because DC is tripping over its balls trying to get Marvel money.

Because Nolan's trilogy was overseen by Nolan, he had a vision and he carried it out. The MCU has Feige. The DCEU has a collection of reactionary randoms who try to change movies after they've been made to appease the people who didn't like the last one.

WB should upgrade their DC Animation to full theatrical animated movies. Do the same shit with bigger budgets. Go CGI while they're at it. Release two movies every year: one with Batman, Superman, or the Justice League and one that takes a risk with an unfamiliar character whose success could move them to the former category.
>>
>>79442826
I agree that a step in that direction wouldn't be a bad idea. DC films just don't seem to work well as live-action. Excluding Christopher Nolan's Batman.
>>
>>79439259
WB didnt fuck around with the nolan movies

WB thinks whatever marvel did with their last movie is what audiences now want, so they rewrite it over and over again until its a mess

and they never learn
>>
>>79442826
Seriously. WB Animation has been producing some quality DC content and doing so consistently.

I just watched that Justice League Dark film and was surprised how good it was.
As a small example, Batman's constant grumbling to himself as paranormal shit happens around him provided tone-perfect, very subtle, levity.

WB cant into live action. It's over. Give the money and go full jap budget on an american animated film - something the west hasn't seen in a while.

Peoples fondest memories are from TAS anyways.
>>
>>79443009
>WB Animation has been producing some quality DC content and doing so consistently.
It's really sad that you're probably over the age of 10. Their animated movies all look like dogshit. The voice acting is even worse. You're better off reading a fucking comic book at that point.
>>
How can you see into his eye, like open doors?
Leading you down into his core, where he's become so numb, without a soul.
>>
>>79437520
would suck if he left, he's really a great batman, and he has a great Alfred, shame WB had to stick with Hack Snyder
>>
>>79440320
lolno

WB would never let someone like him get any influence on movies. DCEU is Tsujihara's baby. He still has all his regular movie execs doing the same old, same old. No Alan Horn around to keep things running smoothly.
>>
>>79441943
With what? He has an Agatah Christie court drama coming, but if he wants more vanity projects, he needs a blockbuster. Nolan ain't gotta do shit anymore after his time on TDK trilogy.
>>
>>79440949
Still haven't topped Iron Man
>>
>>79439543
You realize that everyone who has worked at Marvel and Disney fucking hate Ike, right? They have for decades. He has caused massive problems witht the Marvel films.
>>
>>79443164
You know what? Ben KNEW that BvS is fucking mess. He already knew that Snyder and Goyer killed his career and the whole DCEU from the begining. Look at the pain in his eyes. He wants to scream. He wants to warn people, but he can't. I'm sad that he couldn't stop these faggots from ruining action-live Batman and superior capeshit universe for next 10-20 years.
>>
>>79443111
Yeah they have no fucking budget from WB - really gets the noodle noggin why the animation quality isn't Ghibli-tier.

The voice acting is fine overall. Batman and Robin both need to be replaced though.

It really does. Idk why people keep buying them. One would've hoped Killing Joke would be the straw that broke the camel's back.

>BatKarl

I like it
>>
>>79443352
I've been daying since the fucking 90s with Schumacher. If they had any brains they would spend the money on live action dreck instesd on animated movies made by Bruce Timm and company.

Instead we get these half length shitty direct to video animated movies. Some were good, but all seemed too cheap even when I like them. They deserved better.
>>
>>79437650
yeah i hate DCEU but I'd see BatDredd

Why didn't you save him /tv/?
