It would be fair to say that Ben Affleck's career has experienced its fair share of ups and downs. After bursting onto the scene and sharing the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay with Good Will Hunting co-star, co-writer and best friend Matt Damon at the age of just 25, Affleck quickly became one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. However, a string of poor creative choices saw his career begin to wane before he reinvented himself as a critically-acclaimed filmmaker, resulting in a second Academy Award for his role as producer of third directorial effort and 2013 Best Picture winner Argo. Oh, and he's also Batman. Such was the turnaround in fortunes that Affleck was actually awarded a special 'Razzie Redeemer' award in 2015 thanks to his transformation from landing Worst Actor and Worst Screen Couple awards in 2003 (both for the legendarily crap Gigli) to Academy Award-winning filmmaker. With his career once again pointed in the right direction, it seems unlikely that the Boston native will add to his eight Razzie nominations anytime soon.
I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
