Recent reports from Facebook are surfacing that fans have begun leaving death threats to Ben Affleck regarding his casting in the role of Batman.



The Man of Steel Fan Page on Facebook having to turn of private messages and notifying their almost 250,000 to keep things civilized.

"It’s quite another, and totally unwarranted, to message death threats to the page admins over it.

...to make a threat of violence against any person is completely unacceptable and it diminishes the credibility of ALL superhero genre fans and dismisses you all into a non-relevant “lunatic” category.

...have turned off private messaging this morning. We have no plans of when it might be turned back on again. If you don’t like a casting choice, please find respectful ways, non-violent ways of expressing it. "
