8 Ways New Batman V Superman Trailer Made You Change Your Mind

8. Ben Affleck Actually Looks & Sounds Like A Worthy Batman

What You Originally Thought: There was something of an uproar amongst DC fans when it was announced that Ben Affleck, star of Gigli and (worst of all) the superhero movie flop that was Daredevil, had been cast as Batman. Most of the criticisms aimed at this casting decision seemed to dwell on the idea that Ben Affleck used to be a "terrible actor," and is nowhere cool enough to play the Dark Knight. Whilst the backlash died away somewhat in the months following the announcement, a small amount of concern still lingers in the air as to whether Affleck was, indeed, the right choice. How The New Trailer Changed Your Mind: By the looks of things, most of the fears surrounding his casting have been totally unwarranted. Not only does Ben Affleck look like a believably aged Batman in the latest trailer, but he sounds and feels like Bruce Wayne, too. From the moment that Affleck launches himself into the huge smoke cloud that consumes downtown Metropolis as a result of Superman's fight with Zod, he rings true. You buy into the idea that this guy used to be the Dark Knight once upon a time - and it's nowhere near as distracting or ill-fitting as everyone imagined to see Ben Affleck in the context of a fully-fledged Batman flick.
