Affleck knows his stuff when it comes to drama, but not sure if will be able to handle a big superhero film like this. We'll see.

Affleck directing sounds like a terrible idea.

Warner Bros. is rushing this...

WB sure loves being responsive to Marvel Studios, don't they? LOL. SMH.

After seeing The Town, I've become much more confident in his directing abilities. I've pretty much always enjoyed his acting though.

Good director, actor not so much
Hellsing
Hellsing - 8/8/2012, 12:29 PM
and seriously people were going to bring up the whole this directors never directed action before or an action movie card, neither had nolan or whedon yet they've given two of the best CBM's in movie history. Him directing I don't have a problem with its him trying to grab a role. I mean not a bad actor but I can't envision him playing any of the JL members,
Hellsing
Hellsing - 8/8/2012, 12:30 PM
He seems to act well in the movie he usually directs. I can see him as Maxwell Lord, maybe even Hal Jordon he has the douchebag look. But who knows we'll see how this goes

He's a talented director, but is ready for the responsibility. How would he play? Wouldnt be a bad Bruce.

If they don't put comics guys in charge of this movie then they still have learned nothing . We will probably see Batman and Superman in a fist fight to a draw lol .

I have reasonable faith in his skills, but this seems like an awfully big undertaking for such a relatively inexperienced director.

Interesting

It's not like he's a bad director or anything.

@sKeemAn

As much as I want an JL film, WB needs to take their time to plan out DC films future. As of right now, this seems desperate on their part as an answer to MS. If they rush this, not only will it kill possible films (I'm looking at you GL), but it will possibly hurt the CBM genre as a whole. Don't rush it WB!

Daredevil and The Justice League

I'm intrigued, that's an interesting choice.

Considering the man is a great director I'd like to see him give it a shot however not to sure about co-staring

People seem to question the fact that he hasn't directed a movie of such scale before, but they also seem to forget about Christopher Nolan, Jon Favreau, and most notably for the fact that he did ONE movie before moving on to a big-budget blockbuster, Marc Webb. All of these directors had no experience in big-budget action pictures yet still did wonderful jobs with what they were given. I haven't seen The Town, but if Affleck is chosen, I might just watch it to see how he did.

I actually haven't seen anything Affleck has done, but I have heard of him. IDK I guess we'll see what he can bring to the table. Not sure how they're going to bring all the other characters in without solo movies though. And what about GL? I hope they reboot him, but IDK.

Might be a good director. But is a shit actor
AlexDeLarge87
AlexDeLarge87 - 8/8/2012, 12:48 PM
co-star as who?! That gets me worried.

Also i have a feeling he is better with dramas than action. But will see.

Affleck is a wonderful director. If he gets a good script, I have no doubts that he'll pull off a great movie. Really hope he signs on.
TheGambitFreak
TheGambitFreak - 8/8/2012, 12:50 PM
And hey, if the guy wants to play Batman, go for it. He's got the chops and chin.

Ben Affleck

But let's not Dismiss Aquaman, he can look the part, easily.

Ben Affleck

Then again... If he gets hired to do this, everyone is gonna smirk at the thought of this guy doing a JLA movie:
