I know I'm late to the party, but I thought I'd give my feelings on Affleck as Batman. I'm certainly disappointed, if only because I wanted so badly for Bale to return as Batman. Nevertheless, the casting makes sense. If we were to see lots of Affleck as Bruce Wayne, I'd be seriously questioning the casting. But in this context, we are sure to see plenty more of Batman than we are Bruce Wayne, so Affleck just may be able to pull it off.
