..what? Why would batman fans be mad that superman asked him a sandwich?

that is completely understandable as being a joke about breaking bad and breaking the bat a old batman storyline where bane cripples batman...  just not really related to the thread discussion. Why not just discuss stuff without funny unrelated images to try to pass on points?

Because Batman has the worst fanboys of any comic book hero not named Squirrel Girl.

Where were you people when they cast Chris Evans as Capt. America? Heath Ledger as Joker?

Batman needs any other emotions than those three?

batman worked under the guise of a myth for years before in batb they use this period to be the one where he gets training by the jsa with black canary.

Also yea in most cases I believe batman was around first

um I thought they were offering christian bale 50 million dollars to play batman again did he seriously turn them down?

Whatever.  It doesn't matter what actor they got for the role, this Batman was always going to suck regardless because they're introducing him as a sidekick in a Superman movie just so they can fast-track their Justice League project while the Avengers franchise is still popular.

Superman and Batman both have to exist independently before you can make the World's Finest thing actually work.

iron-man, who was a *b-team character till his movie came out

*while popular in his own right he wasnt batman popular till the iron man movie came out prove me wrong you fucks

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the process began earlier this year when director Zack Snyder had finished working on Man of Steel with producer Christopher Nolan. Snyder and the studio already had ideas for a follow-up, and Snyder reached out to Affleck to check the star's interest.

It's unclear when these talks began. Multiple sources say the studio approached Josh Brolin, as well as other actors. Ryan Gosling was also a possibility, but the actor dislikes the idea of sequels.

But Affleck was curious, and initial talks focusing on story and character began. Once Affleck was satisfied, WME's Patrick Whitesell and Ziffren Brittenham's Sam Fischer began negotiating his role in the Superman sequel. Sources say that Affleck has been signed for multiple other movies. The talks were so secretive that many Warner execs and most WME agents remained unaware of their existence.

On one level, Affleck’s return to superheroes seems bewildering. The Oscar-winning co-writer of Good Will Hunting drew scorn after donning the red suit for Daredevil, and later agreed it wasn't his best work. After he'd recovered and turned in a bravura performance directing and starring in The Town, Fox offered him the chance to direct and star in a Daredevil reboot -- but Affleck turned it down.

More recently, Nolan offered Affleck the chance to direct Man of Steel. Affleck declined, seemingly because of a desire not to return to the world of capes -- despite being an avowed comic book fan.

Because since it’s considered a sequel to Man of Steel and not a Batman movie, any potential underperformance issues won't ultimately land on his shoulders.

The deal also potentially lines Affleck up to star in and direct Warner Bros.' answer to The Avengers: The eventual Justice League movie.

Hell Tom Hardy as Bane wasn't well received at first either because of how "small" he was.
