^ Sleeping with Ma Kent.
I think he'll be fine. And he has the physical presence to stand alongside Cavill and not be overshadowed. Wouldn't have been my first choice but he's a much better selection than some of the names being rumoured. He arguably looks more like the comic Batman than any other actor to play him to date.
The consensus seems to be the opposite of what you're saying. Most people loved Clooney, but thought the movie itself was crap. And as far as I can tell, most people blame Schumacher, not Clooney.Look at Clooney in Batman and Robin. While I may enjoy the movie as an homage to the campy 60s show, Clooney did not do a bad job acting as either Wayne or Batman. The problem was people did not want a campy Batman movie, or at least the level of camp that was in that movie. So if Clooney had been Batman in a less campy movie I think people would not be putting the blame for that movie on his shoulders.
He's neither middle-aged, nor pudgy and personally, I loved him in the role. He seemed like an odd choice at the time, but I thought he ended up playing the part very well.Never bought into Keaton either. Batman as a pudgy middle-aged man? Yeahhh... Sorry don't buy it.
I still think Clooney looks the most like how I'd imagine a real life Bruce Wayne but Affleck is good too.He arguably looks more like the comic Batman than any other actor to play him to date.
Nope... A completely different universe...
With the same Wayne Enterprises corporate logo...![]()
That was an easter egg rather than forward planning.
A lot of the MSM are now reporting on the internet backlash about this. In declaring the fanboys "consistently and always wrong", they cite Heath Ledger, Daniel Craig, and the Star Trek reboot.
I do hope they go with a better Batsuit and Batmobile this time. This pic. looks good, I want to see a Batsuit where I can recognize the Batsymbol.People are already doing manips (from eyesskyward):

I'm wondering what Kevin Smith has to say about this?
I'm really surprised the internet hasn't blown up yet, they keep pushing and pushing.
Didn't one of the recent animated movies have a really cool Batmobile? In the new 52, doesn't he have a shit load of Batmobiles? I hope the Suit is not overly detailed and I hope it's grey this time and not black. Maybe some kind of armor similar to Captain America in the first movie.I do hope they go with a better Batsuit and Batmobile this time.

The Batsuit and the Batmobile are very crucial to get right. A grown man in a Batsuit can look silly if not done right. I am sure they will select a suit that goes with Superman's suit.
I mean, what's next, Indiana Jones finds Bigfoot and Anikan Skywalker's Ghost fights Darth Maul's Ghost in Episode 7?I'm really surprised the internet hasn't blown up yet, they keep pushing and pushing.
Batman Fans Beg Obama To Remove Ben Affleck From 'Superman' Sequel
- There's only one person tough enough to save the country, nay the world, from the sight of Ben Affleck dressed as Batman: President Barack Obama.
Or so some Batman fans thought when they signed a petition at "We the People" to request Affleck's removal from playing the Caped Crusader in the upcoming Man of Steel sequel. "We the People" is part of the White House's official web site where common folk can push change they can believe in.
Sadly, the petition has been taken down from the site.

I don't want another tank. I want a cool car, not over the top cartoonish, but cool. I think a balance between TDK, TAS. and the Arkham games would be nice. The realistic approach with cool gadgets and a badass Batcave and an Arkham style suite would be perfect, I think.Didn't one of the recent animated movies have a really cool Batmobile?

In The New 52 he does have a cache of batmobiles which seems to be each one he's had in every incarnation of the character. (A visual in-joke) the one he primarily uses has Tumbler-like features.
