    For some reason, projects that never happen tend to be called greatest or worst. No one can know unless it actually happens. The production part is the hardest and most challenging part of a film. Also, I doubt it would be at least for me. Deathstroke as a main villain? JL characters in it? Batgirl? Sounds like a lot of things going on and more focused on other characters than Batman himself.

      Agreed. While a lot in the movie sounded amazing to me, it also could've been too unfocused as a Batman story. One of the things I loved about The Batman is even with its lengthy runtime, it used it all to tell POV character-study that never shifts focus from Batman the whole time. I won't judge the movie based on plot details, but I would've wanted to see that for Affleck's version.

      @@themadtitan7603 I've actually made my own pitch for what Ben Affleck's Batman movie could of been. It seemed to me Batfleck had issues in his past with his family especially with the death of Dick Grayson, apparently a divorce with Selina Kyle, the loss of his parents, and maybe having ties cut to Barbara after Dick died. So I wanted to adapt Son Of Batman lightly where Damian comes into Bruce's life and this becomes his second shot at fatherhood but gets mixed up when Deathstroke and Joker team up. It could be revealed that Grant Wilson, Slade's son, died when Bruce fought him because the Mira Kuru Grant would take was very unstable and Bruce pushed Grant to his limits and that caused him to die. So the story itself is about Bruce becoming a father again and reconnecting with those he's lost contact with like Selina, Babs, Lucius, and anyone else and having to accept the sins of his past which there's alot of. While also being a way to introduce Damian/Robin into the DCEU. And you could still have the third act take place in Arkham showing off many of his supervillains like Riddler, Two-Face, Bane, Clayface, Penguin, Black Mask, Hush, Poison Ivy, Firefly, and many more.

      @@domgeek5632 This sounds like an amazing pitch imo and would definitely have Batfleck's emotional arc right at the centre of the plot, any story that's focused on Batman's relationship and role in the Batfamily and how a struggle within it forces him to change and grow instantly peaks my interests.
      I like the theme of Bruce becoming a father again after the death of his son and being involved in the death of a rival's son who's now trying to dismantle his life because of it. Him doing so through by first having to reconnect with his allies is also a good way to feature a lot of the Batfamily in fairly prominent roles.
      I don't remember any indication that Selina was married to Bruce at some point in BvS but it'd be again, a good way to feature an ally and have it make sense with the central throughline of the story and it's a good background for the DCEU's Catwoman who we don't about.
      I imagine Alfred here shows Bruce there's people that are still there for him and a father he could look up to as inspiration for himself, Gordon shows him that there's still good people left and Barbara is a child figure to Bruce in her own right which could show that he can be a good parental figure and role model to encourage him to face his demons and take up Damien by the end of the film.

  • @queazy03
    @queazy03 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I'd be very interested to see what Affleck could've done. Matt Reeves' The Batman was pretty good, but it falls apart in some places. His Batman doesn't so much figure out clues as much as he blurts out answers to riddles, and in some cases others just tell him what to do because he can't figure it out on his own. The ending was kind of forced, where Nigma had all been about justice and exposing the corruption of the city for the entire movie...until the ending where he wants to drown half the town for no good reason (kick the cat). Ben Affleck's Batman script feels more emotional and brutal.

    I would have made it similar to Arkham Origins but with a veteran Batman, not a rookie. The Rogues Gallery going to war against Gotham and the Batfamily to stop then would have been great. Have Deathstroke lead the Rogues and fight Batman like the game intro as the final battle.
    A high octane action movie like Mission Impossible, not a super dark movie like Halloween

    This Batman film sounds like it could've been something very special, but what Matt Reeves gave us was epic. I think looking back at it, the combination of Ben's personal life (divorce from Jennifer Garner, alcoholism) along with the added pressure from fans, the media, and WB led to him not being passionate anymore about the film and wanting to get away as far as possible. This guy proved he was an amazing filmmaker, and yet WB/DC couldn't just give him the creative liberty they gave Matt Reeves to allow him to make the film as near perfect as possible? It really sounds like something of a gem.

      @@markmolino679 This statement is the absolute truth and it needs to be more known among the audiences. I swear if I didn't know any better, Marvel/Disney paid off critics to purposely slander and undermine DC films. Fans and critics absolutely loved The Dark Knight Trilogy and the seriousness and realism it brought to comic book films. Then all of a sudden Joss Whedon makes Avengers 1 and lays out a template that sacrifices quality filmmaking for cheap laughs and fun to make it very accessible to mainstream audiences. Then apparently if any company didn't follow this template, the the critics would condemn the movie.
      Now fast forward ten years and we see what the majority of these superhero movies have De-evolved into. Marvel/Disney is literally going through it's Ouroboros stage in life and DC has been maimed ever since and self sabotaged from within. It's very sad that the right lessons weren't learned from what Christopher Nolan brought to the genre. Zack had the right idea. Had Zack started making his films right now, they would be regarded much much differently.
      It's really sad actually. As a life time comic reader to see so many of these films come out and not respect the source material, let alone it's own integrity as a movie. It's a little soul crushing. I do feel The Sam Raimi films and also the X-Men films had their hearts in the right place. I still cringe whenever I think about what Disney will do when they make their own X-Men films. That company is simply not the right fit for that type of comic book movie and the serious themes and drama that need to happen within them. The Fox movies may have not been perfect, but thematically they were in tact and there was some incredible acting in them as well.

      That being said I do recognize that some people would prefer their superhero movies to be more fun and not to be taken seriously. To me the only marvel movies I really enjoyed were Captain America: Winter Soldier, Thor 1, and Infinity War. I'm really not too crazy bout any of the others. And also while they followed their formula, Marvel wasn't quite off the rails as they are now. They've certainly self indulged and aimed the genre to go right off a cliff into oblivion. And don't get me started on the newest Spiderman Trilogy.... I'd take Sam Raimi or Garfield movies any day over those movies and those new Spiderman movies are like exactly the type of throw away movies I can't stand.

    Matt Reeves’ The Batman was a good film. No doubt. But, it was too soon and just not necessary. I, and I think many others, really wanted to see Affleck’s Batman written and directed by Affleck himself.
    I think we lost something really special when Ben decided he wasn’t doing this film. Maybe, if everything lines up with the new leadership at WB and Ben being in a better space mentally, he’ll change his mind and decide to make his version of The Batman.

    Another great and very well researched video from the channel!
    It's disappointing that Ben Affleck's Batman never came to furniture. Seeing an older and more experienced Batman would've been refreshing for sure, so is the arc the film would've taken in him on, and with the addition of Deathstroke a villain we hadn't seen on the big screen before would've been exciting, especially in the way he was portrait here as systematically destroying Bruce's life, I could easily see this as being an iconic and very intimidating performance based on the whispers alone. I also love the inclusion of Batgirl because again, it's a character we haven't seen before.
    It will always be shame we will never get to experience this, as I believe it would've brought something new to the Batman franchise with the Arkahm/comic book inspirations, the villain, Bruce's arc, etc.

    I loved Ben Affleck as Batman, but I did not like Snyder's Batman. It works visually, but not conceptually. If Batman straight up kills without remorse, then what's really left of the character? What inspires the most about him is his restraint and the lengths he's willing to go to help/save someone even if said someone is literally trying to kill him or others. He knows what breaks a person and knows every psychotic villain he faces has also faced despair and lost. Most of the main cast of his rougues gallery represents psychological aspects of Batman himself, which is genuis in terms of writting and character developement because he sees himself in most, if not all of them, and understands them. His methods aren't always top tier, but the fact he keeps himself from crossing that abyss of murderous rampage is what makes him one of the best and most inspiring characters ever concieved. That being said, sometimes you really have to put a rabid dog down and his unwillingness to do so leads to him failing those he tries to protect and his loved ones (Jason Todd for example). Instead of making Batman a killer, they should've explored the conflict between his rule of no killing versus the other members of the JL who are willing to kill like Wonder Woman and Aquaman.

  • @DangerousDevilOfficial

    While Keaton will always be the best Batman IMO, I also think there is plenty of room for multiple iterations of Batman. So it would not bother at all to see his Batman live side by side in his own movie with the Patterson films. I enjoy the different stories and timelines.
    This could have been very cool. I am also saddened that a bunch of the Keaton scenes for multiple upcoming films have been scrapped. Most any new Batman content is usually a good thing. So maybe, just maybe we will get a Batfleck film… 🤷‍♂️

    Honestly, Affleck's Batman idea just sounds like the Knightfall storyline only with Bane replaced by Deathstroke which, for anybody aware of how much The Dark Knight Rises utilized similar elements from that story (particularly the revenge conspiracy over something fleetingly personal) is disappointingly tedious. The Dark Knight Rises was only about four or five years old prior to Affleck being slated to direct this Batman film, and I think had it gone through and he managed to direct it, it would have been dead on arrival for partly those reasons as well as Affleck's obvious sense of torment in and out of the project. Warner should be grateful the Reeves/Pattinson variation turned out as well as it had, things could have gone much, much worse.

Even though he chose not to direct it, having worked on the script, and wanting the final fight with Deathstroke to be like in Arkham Origins Trailer, is really cool. It's unfortunate that working on it had become such
    a burden, that he abandoned the entire movie. Still, it would have been great to watch a Batman movie with Ben Affleck and Joe Magenello as Deathstroke. That would have been so
