I wonder if the "comeback" pieces will be so plentiful that by the time the film actually rolls around everyone will be wishing for its demise -- nm - con_carne Aug 22, 19:42 1
- Who isn't already hoping for its demise? I know I am. - Beryllium Aug 22, 19:46

Kevin Smith will be going crazy. his podcast Fat Man on the Batman is pretty good. -- nm - Remlik Aug 22, 18:27
a step up from Daredevil i'd say -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Aug 22, 18:26
I hope he and Supes fight on a titter totter -- nm - Beaker Aug 22, 18:25

Honestly, that doesn't bother me much at this point. - Will Hunting Aug 22, 18:18 17
- This nearly puts it in the realm of Man of Steel, for me. - The Ruiner Aug 22, 18:27 10
  - Affleck 5-7 years ago....agreed. - Will Hunting Aug 22, 18:29 2
    - He's still a much better director than he is an actor. -- nm - the liioulu with copper wire Aug 22, 18:30 1
      - A brilliant insult! -- nm - colin Aug 22, 19:26

- The fascinating aspect is that he had been angling to direct Justice League. -- nm - David Aug 22, 18:22 3
  - He had been angling? Or he was offered? Two different things, he turned down Superman. -- nm - Remlik Aug 22, 18:25 2
    - He had been angling for it. There were a few reports about six months ago that they liked him more to star in it. - David Aug 22, 18:28 1
      - huh. interesting. -- nm - Remlik Aug 22, 18:46
F- you. -- nm - The Ruiner Aug 22, 18:17
