I know I'm in the minority here but I have to say, Give Ben a chance. What we have to keep in mind is that we sturdy comic book fans always expect the worst when it comes to superhero movies because Hollywood usually treats superhero movies terrible. Marvel doesn't always have the same actor play the same character either or did you forget about Eric Bana and Edward Norton being the Hulk then the Avengers movie gives us an actor who surpassed them both (an actor I was at first disappointed to find out was replacing Edward Norton), Tobey McGuire IS Spiderman and Marvel replaced him with that horrible Andrew Garfield. The Punisher is a different actor in the Punisher and Punisher:Warzone yet Warzone was a better movie IMO. And what about the outrage when Heath Ledger was cast as the Joker?? He received death threats, people hated his promo pictures of him in costume and then what happened? He is now considered the best Joker actor of all time. Sure Daredevil sucked but it sucked for a helluva lot more reasons than Ben Affleck. The Kingpin was badly cast, Colin Farrell over-acted, the plot was weak and Jennifer Garner looks more like Scarlet Witch than Elektra. In fact Daredevil was the only good thing about the movie. In closing I would also like to say the biggest difference between Bale and Affleck as Batman is this: To Bale Batman was just a job. To Affleck (a comic book geek) Batman is a dream come true. As fellow comic book geeks we should at the very least "Give Ben a chance". After all it could have been worse they could have cast Topher Grace as Venom...Oh that's right Marvel DID that..
