Batman Vs Superman Movie: 5 Key Inspirations For Affleck's Bat

4. Shannon Hamilton

mallrats One thing that Ben Affleck shouldn't have any trouble portraying is the arrogant, aloof playboy Bruce Wayne, Batman's alter ego. Let's face it Affleck has more experience playing characters like that than he does playing a masked vigilante. So which classic Affleck persona should he seek his inspiration from? Well we've racked our brains here and the best choice we could come up with is Shannon Hamilton from Mallrats. Shannon is an arrogant, misogynistic arse hole who treats women like they mean nothing to him as long as he gets to have sex with them in a very uncomfortable place, and we don't mean like the back of a Volkswagen. To keep his secret safe and to distance himself as much as possible from his heroic side Bruce Wayne needs to portray a character not unlike Shannon. We even see him do this in the Christopher Nolan trilogy as it's his big cover. No one would suspect the grade A dick head to actually be the city's masked saviour now would they?
