Batman-News is a joke. They've posted two updates in the last seven minutes. Comingsoon has posted like 20.

Told you guys they are shit.

 

[Obliterator]

You know what. they should go all in and throw in some Doctor Manhattan too.

I'm totally cool with this.

The whole Watchmen being part of Rebirth is pretty awesome imo

 

[a916]

Because Suicide was more successful than MOS and was their most profitable film before Wonder Woman it would be weird if we did not get Suicide Squad 2

A MOS2 sequel done right would dwarf Suicide Squad. I don't even think SS2 can outgross SS1... that was marketing hitting it out of the park and they may not be able to capture that again.

AFFLECK LAYING DOWN THE TRUTH

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Hope they change Lex and Joker as well for Flashpoint, at least the look and direction of those 2.

Oh shit, I was so focused on Affleck that I didn't even think about that. If these two get recast the DCEU would get a massive upgrade.

@slashfilm
Aquaman clip show, like the opening of Star Wars but for under the sea. Very cool.

 

[Future Foundation]

JL cast taking the stage

 

[Ahasverus]

Let me be clear, Batman is the greatest fucking part in the world, I am thrilled to do it

Ben Affleck, just now.

I think we might have fallen for clickbait guis

 

[broncobuster]

"Let me be clear," says Affleck, "Batman is the greatest f--king part in the world. I am thrilled to do it."

He says that he would be an ape in the background for Matt Reeves, so it sounds like he will be doing the film after all!

Ha

 

[Hagi]

It's insane that they are going straight to Flashpoint but fuck it I'm in

Can somebody summarize for me what has happened, I'm lost.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

Ray Fisher the GOAT

Zack "God" Snyder

 

[dcelw540]

Ben Affleck is batman in the solo film confirmed

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Batman-News is a joke. They've posted two updates in the last seven minutes. Comingsoon has posted like 20.

Stop looking at it.

Just look at the #SDCCWB twitter search

 

[Mariolee]

Ben Affleck, just now.

Take with a grain of salt, but at least it shows he'll be in The Batman.

 

[Gleethor]

Sounds like Ben is at least on board for The Batman

 

[a916]

Cyborg rips apart Borg Life shirt to show "I <3 Z S" for Snyder.

 

[Violence Jack]

Ben Affleck is batman in the solo film confirmed

He didn't confirm or deny anything

 

[Ashhong]

Take with a grain of salt, but at least it shows he'll be in The Batman.

...This we should take with a grain of salt but believe an anonymous source?

 

[Farsi]

Batfleck re-confirmed.

Best news all day.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

JL cast taking the stage

Where can we get a "I [Heart] Z.S."shirt?

 

[VanWinkle]

It's insane that they are going straight to Flashpoint but fuck it I'm in

Well it could be like 5 films down the line for all we know

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

Affleck is a Batman fanboy. Dude has his own batcave in his house.

The Batman and the following movies are a ways off. Maybe he´ll get his shit in order. Cause i bet he would love to do it.

 

[a916]

Affleck also said he was directing Batman on Kimmel weeks before dropping out... probably PR spin at this point.

 

[Theorry]

Ben is the Bat. Haters gonna hate.

 

[b&jy77VjiKn$#F]

Asking the right question there.

Clip of Affleck saying what he said,

I'm hating so fucking hard

 

[Boke1879]

TBH a Flashpoint film won't be around for like 3 years at the least. That's plenty of time to have gone by.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Flashpoint probably isn't a reboot considering wonder woman 2 and The Batman.

Is there hard dates on any of them?

True though wasn't really thinking when I posted.

 

[Vibranium]

Nice to see Affleck confirmed for The Batman. I'm going to assume that Flashpoint will be after it.

 

[suaveric]

Don't forget that they have to sell Justice League for the next six months. I'm not sure Ben would be announcing stepping down at this point. That happens after his last movie.

 

[Boke1879]

True. I don't think any of those are in any sort of order.

 

[SJRB]

Holy shit the comingsoon liveblog is like a memory black hole, what a shit site.

 

[Mariolee]

...This we should take with a grain of salt but believe an anonymous source?

Reported by THR which doesn't fuck around with sources like Comicbookmovie.com or something. Affleck has also been shown time and time again to make definitive statements on the production of DCEU films, specifically on The Batman, and then only a few weeks later we find out the exact opposite is occuring.

 

[Obliterator]

I'm way good with Affleck staying on as Bats.

But remember Flashpoint could be quite a ways away, so it may be true they are gonna recast some people as well.

 

[jett]

Borg Life guy is really trying hard.

 

[S1kkZ]

so its not my computer.

Yeah, there's no way in hell they can announce he's stepping down when they still hvae to push JL.

 

[BossDarkseid]

If we get a Green Lantern I hope its Jessica Cruz.

I can't think of a Hal arc in my head that wouldn't be too condensed, and Guy/John/Kyle work better as part of GLC rather than solo...Jessica would be something new.ish

 

[mjc]

Borg Life guy is really trying hard.

Method acting for the role.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

But remember Flashpoint could be quite a ways away, so it may be true they are gonna recast some people as well.

Could also be a soft reboot, freshen up the universe as opposed to a hard reboot where they recast everyone.

 

[MANGOD]

Haha if you dont like Ben Affleck as batman then FUCK YOU

 

[Wingfan19]

New JL trailer time!

 

[Cuburt]

Affleck also said he was directing Batman on Kimmel weeks before dropping out... probably PR spin at this point.

Yeah, did people forget this ever happened?

On second thought, I take it back. People immediately scrubbed that from their minds as soon as he dropped out.

 

[Lokimaru]

You can't have a League with just Five people but I guess Justice Group doesn't roll off the tougue as well..

 

[jett]

Holy shit the comingsoon liveblog is like a memory black hole, what a shit site.

Stop using Chrome, opened it on Firefox and I got no issues.

 

[Dominator]

They better drop this new trailer immediately lol I'm itching.

 

[a916]

Borg Life guy is really trying hard.

Yeah I hate when people "try hard" and be excited.
