You mean you'd take Bale's nuanced, mature Batman over Affleck's Murder-Man? That's an absurd stance to take!

(I got scared whenever I saw Cavill's Superman; that's when I knew they really messed up.)

Totally forgot about Murder-Man, but good point. Yet another reason Synder f-ed that whole thing up.

All these problems about Batman fitting into the larger super universe were solved decades ago by Bruce Timm.

Maybe everyone else caught on to this sooner (since I'm slow), but do y'all think part of the reason Cedric Diggory was cast as Batman was for the free PR in the "outrage" over the Twilight vamp becoming Batman?

It shouldn't be a big thing. Leo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt started as heart throbs but have moved on to being successful dramatic actors.

It's the director's first public acknowledgment of Pattison in the role. That's just a gif from one of Pattison's latest movies, Good Times.

Ha, oh. You know who Richard Dreyfuss is, right? Famous actor who's now in his 70s? That's the joke. That he auditioned to play Batman, but Affleck got the role instead.

Ha, he's old! The joke is that an old man auditioned for Batman, thought he had a good audition, and is disappointed he didn't get the part. It has nothing to do with being "tuned in to Hollywood." It's so obvious that I assumed surely you just didn't know who Richard Dreyfuss is.

guy tells his dad, famous actor, to tweet out that he auditioned to play batman but he didn't get it, and they gave it to Affleck instead.

it's funny because this is not the type of role that Richard Dreyfuss would audition for. so everyone understands that he would not be serious when he says that he was disappointed that they gave it to Affleck.

Well the joke is terrible and unfunny. And your first thought would be that someone doesn't know who Richard dreyfuss is, not that the joke could be seen as terrible, unfunny or plain not understood? GMAFB.
well, if you see Richard Dreyfuss' tweet there's a good chance it's because you follow him or people in that same circle. and if you meet that criteria, there's a good chance you know that he's a famous actor, as well as his approximate age and the type of role he generally plays.

you see, it's funny because it's an incongruity between your expectations of him as an actor and the expectations for the role of batman.

Dude. Let it go. It was a harmless, random post I threw up on a whim. You sound like a child, stomping your feet that you didn't get the joke, actively looking for reasons to be offended by utter nothingness. I can't even believe I'm even having this conversation.

Ah, yes, there it. The go-to, "Wow, you're taking this way too seriously" follow-up post with the laugh/cry emoji after b*tching about something YOU brought up and kept yammering about. Standard TexAgs protocol.

Alright getting us back on topic, any guesses on who they will cast as Catwoman if they decide to use the character? I think Sofia Boutella would be great.

I know they are in everything right now, but my vote would be Florence Pugh or Saoirse Ronan.
