Ron Catapano of Ron's Comic World in Mount Holly, New Jersey comments on the selection of Ben Affleck as Batman (see "Ben Affleck Will Play Batman").
Someone at Warner Bros. has their head stuck up their derriere and needs help! After finally making a passable Superman movie and getting everyone excited with the announcement of a Superman / Batman movie, they just took everyone's hopes, chopped them up into tiny pieces and pooped all over them with the announcement that Ben Affleck has been chosen to play Batman.
While this isn't as bad as Nick Cage for Superman, it's not far off. If it wasn't for their animated work we'd never have a DC movie worth watching.
