I disagree with the Batman statement. I fee like some performed better than others regarding different aspects of Batman.
Also I'm still in the camp of Affleck not leaving.

I agree some did better than others in different aspects, but there was no one who you can point to and say, "Nah, he didn't work at all." Clooney was in a shitty film, but he was fine as Batman and great as Bruce Wayne. Kilmer is the least Bruce Wayne, but in costume, he was decent.
Clooney and Kilmer were both bad dude. Keaton wasn't very good either. Too weird and strange. The only guy who got Batman and Bruce right is Ben. Bale nailed Bruce but his Batman was as goofy as Bane's voice.
There's no way WB swerves off that date given the perceived weakness in the Transformers franchise and this is a spin-off no less.
Unless this is serving as the cornerstone of a huge merchandise push for Xmas I bet this gets moved to spring 2019.

Paramount can't afford it. Bumblebee will move, especially after the fall Transformers suffered at the box office this time around.

I hope they don't go with a younger Bats, I like cranky old Bruce just fine. Age would set more limits for him in contrast to the godly metahumans he fights alongside. He's human, let him be.

Keaton was great. Weird, but great.
You're great.

Folks still put Keaton at the top of the list of Batmen. (three links there.) My personal thought is people conflate the movies with the actor leading them, much like Spider-Man. Clooney has one of the better Bruce Waynes in my opinion, though I think Affleck has a shot as best Batman.

I always thought Clooney would be a great Lex Luthor.
Keaton is kind of a joke these days. You watch the Burton Batman films now and he can't fight. He can't move. He's going bald and he sleeps upside down. Doesn't matter what people say. I'll just peg it to nostalgia taking over people's minds and coloring their perspectives.
I love Returns because it's a weird and funky film with awesome performances but it's hardly what I would call quintessential Batman. Of course I know this all subjective and basically falls under "Not muh Batman", but the coolest versions of the character always existed in the comics and cartoons until Snyder showed us Batfleck. Those other movies have bizarro versions of the character.
Yeah I think they'll move. Just no idea why they'd move it to that date knowing Aquaman is there and Transformers is very weak.

If they're gonna continue with the aged veteran status for Batman, I would like Jackman for the role.
We can't have Jackman be both Wolverine and Batman. Even he isn't badass enough to pull that off.

Considering how Paramount has been run the past year or two, they probably didn't even know Aquaman moved from November to December. I don't think anyone has a clue over there right now.

This is the first time I've ever heard of a Bumblebee movie. What a waste of money.

We all know that Jon Hamm is the right answer. Just get a body double for the action scenes and CG his face if Hamm is too old for that shit.

Nah. Not after Big Little Lies. He's too scary.
I could honestly see him being a better Leto replacement than an Affleck one.

No clue. THR report says it's coming down the pipeline after The Batman ends Affleck's three picture contract. Take it like any other report. Could be true, could be not. Given the outlet, they likely have a good sources, but it's Hollywood and shit changes.

Justice League merchandise should start popping up in stores today.
I got all the figures I wanted early last week, so I'm not sure if I'm getting anything else yet.
