I’d like to see Jimmy Kimmel as Robin. And Batman could be investigating a wave of dead hookers found in the vicinity of Gotham City Movie Studios.

If you can get Sarah Silverman as Batgirl, I think we have ourselves a movie.

Damon can be the villain. Or the red herring. He doesn’t know Silverman is BG and Silverman doesn’t know Damon is the bad guy.

A. He’s not a “mediocre” actor. If you have seen him in The Town, or Bounce, or The Company Men, I don’t think you’d say so.
B. I’ll grant you that he doesn’t have the greatest range, but that’s true of a lot of fine actors. Jack Nicholson, for example, plays Jack Nicholson in every role. Woody Harrelson has no range, but the internets love him. (As they should. He, like Affleck, is a fine actor.)
C. Internet groupthink is tiresome.
My main problem with Affleck as Batman is that, whenever he plays serious and brooding, he comes across as a whiny, entitled prick. I am not saying he is in real life, it’s just that he does better with a bit of humor to his roles and when it’s not there, when he has to play it totally straight, he isn’t nearly as good.
I can actually see him semi-making it work as Wayne when Wayne is playing the carefree playboy role, but I can’t see it at all when he’s his brooding, grim real self.
Two petitions at the White House web site were even started in an attempt to remove Affleck from the role - LOL.
Allowing Affleck to play Batman will be proof positive that Obama is a Muslim bent on destroying the American way of life. And that he was born in Kenya.
