  - He did not engender goodwill with his Daredevil performance nor with the subsequent voicing of regret for having played a costumed hero. - Mop on Nook Android Tablet Aug 23, 19:11 8

      - Yeah, all people should need to do is look at Mark Steven Johnson's credits. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 23, 20:00 1
        
        There's hope for pixie! -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Aug 23, 21:42

      - I saw the director's cut. I wouldn't call it great (which is why I still make jokes), but it was watchable. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 23, 19:16
    - One problem is that he ALSO sucked as Matt Murdoch. :) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 23, 19:12

    - Sure, but the hits are fantastic. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 23, 19:03 4
      - he's got 2 Oscars for goodness sake!!!!...... I think you ran into a few Affleck naysayers on the NCIS boards a few weeks back :) -- nm - peglegpete Aug 23, 19:14 3
        
        Granted, they aren't for acting. but still! He's not the greatest actor, but he is solid. -- nm - loosi at home Aug 23, 19:37 2
