1. Batfleck was good

2. Superman leaves
   DC: that's okay we still have batma-
   Batman leaves
   DC: Hey so Christian Bale….wanna come back?

3. DCU is a cluster f.ck.

4. DC should give up on superheroes movies…or take some years of and rethink everything from the begining

5. They’re gonna have to reboot it now aren’t they. They can’t go any further along with this mess surely

6. I love Ben affleck but damn he made a mistake 2 movies as Batman and now he’s quitting for what somebody better get Christian bale on the phone

7. Goddamn it. My favourite Batman retired. I was really looking forward to his Batman movie. This really upsets me…

8. Marvel>DC

9. Didn't play the video, instead i came here read the comments about the thumbnail

10. Christian Bale

11. He’s my favorite Batman dammit.

12. Okay, time to get Armie Hammer to play the Bat!!

13. DC you are so trash. Afleck was a pretty solid Batman

14. daily marvel better than dc comment.

15. I'm sorry but I'm now done with the DCEU, this is an absolute joke and kick to the face exactly like TASM films… These morons have set up all these films, even a freaking team up and now you're losing the main actor/character who plays it perfectly well? piss off WB.. you just did what Marvel would never do.

16. He’s too old, they never should’ve gave him the role to begin with

17. Nobody wanted ben to play batman

18. The DCU is one large mess. How can you stay consistent when even your actors don’t want to be in the films anymore. Yes Aquaman exceded expectations but mark my words it’ll be just like Wonder Woman. A good film followed by lots of bad ones. Then the DCU starts to come up all of these absolutely pointless spin off films when all I want to see is a film that focuses on main characters that build up to something. This proves MCU is better and not saying it cause I’m a fan boy, the films just do everything that the DCU doesn’t. Emotion, good background stories, that actually BUILD towards a goal to stop the decimation of thanos.
    DC is wack

19. Good because Ben Affleck is a trash human being

20. Star Wars Ruined…Is Batman gonna be a joke too?

21. So…Ben Affleck is leaving and yet you use a pic of Christian Bale in the thumbnail…nice work IGN…nice work…

22. Well it’s official, that Internet’s “Sadfleck” meme has officially broken Ben Affleck & killed off his acting career.. man it definitely does seem like the Batman & Superman roles are cursed since almost every single actor that’s been tied to those roles have had a shitty acting career after that or has been associated with their roles in such a way that it’s permanently left a an unwashable stain on their acting careers that they are now completely ashamed of being apart of those roles, almost like somebody’s cursed them so nobody walks away from playing a DC character intact.. ?

23. hm i guess the editors don’t know what ben looks like

24. Dc needa stick to animated movies.

25. Really bizarre that they pick the Nolan batman movies for this.

26. Ha

27. Ben afleck has had so much screen time that even the movie that litraly said batman barely should him he was always a secondary character

28. Your telling stuff we already know this isn’t new smh

29. ? was not a fan of Batfleck

30. It’s kinda sad. Although bvs wasn’t great he was great in it. When the JL movie came out you could tell he had given up.

31. Remember when we all wanted him gone before BvS came out?
    Well, ya got your wish.

32. I like Ben as an actor but not to play Batman

33. Nooooo?, OK then now they should make a deathstroke movie or make him the antagonist in the upcoming movie

34. Ben affleck is the best acor and batman but the movies could have been better made
