Ben Affleck's Son Calls Jimmy Fallon The Man
/ fallontonight

[@claytonbaker49]

His son is going to be one lucky kid, He'll be able to say sat career day, " This is my dad, He's Batman"

[@xiang5814]

"And my name's Damian"

[@Jadorelainie]

+Clayton Baker let's pray the movie turns out well otherwise kid won't be saying that hahaha!

[@charlestabing9777]

+Clayton Baker but the follow up to the sentence is: "but I like Frozen better."

[@claytonbaker49]

***** very true XD

[@MalikG01]

+Clayton Baker I know right!

[@sammuirhead8827]

I had no idea Ben Affleck was so funny and awesome! I'm like in love with him right now

[@JuveKW]

Dad sense of humor all day from Affleck LOL

[@StarTheWolfPuppy]

he honestly seems like one of the most normal actors I have ever seen. I can imagine meeting somebody like this just anywhere around normal life. People who say he's arrogant, just look at how you and your friends talk, and you might see that even though he's a celebrity, he talks basically exactly the same as you

[@avocado6623]

***** Except he's a scientologist.

[@TheManInThe5uit]

Wulf Not anymore I think. He lately started backing off from it... Seems he realized the BS

[@avocado6623]

L1keASir Not according to the documentary "Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief" that was released this year. It's pretty interesting considering I didn't know much about Scientology.

[@samsmith9245]

***** He's one of the most evil actors in the US. He supports terrorism.

[@StarTheWolfPuppy]

Sam Smith when on earth did he say he supports terrorism -_- ?

[@logandh2]

Any time I see him in an interview I imagine he's Bruce Wayne keeping up the facade of being a playboy billionaire.

[@Cassandra6]

logandh2 SAME

[@dianam3004]

saaame!

[@genesisobadiah]

hahahaha

[@tiboonx]

+logandh2 hahaah, true

[@beaverwhiffer27]

+logandh2 WEIRD!!!! Having an imagination is great and all, but yours is on a sick lvl. #Sickinthehead

[@francyl29]

The sad thing is that Ben was really excited about this iconic role, but the haters and the critics put him down and stressed him. But I'm still convinced that he's the best Batmam, he deserved better treatment and a first movie starring, not with Superman. There was so much potential.

[@optimus2008]

He's only very slightly behind Bale for me. He reminds me of Conroy, maybe cause his Batman is involved with the Justice League.

[@saraoliveira8836]

I love jimmy's face when Ben Affleck say "do it like the man"

[@victoralcantara7592]

Ben affleck be like: its time you learn what it means to be a man😂😂😂

[@teflonpipe7477]

Affleck is so affable and funny in this interview. His comedic timing is great.

[@movieholic-92]

"I think Ben Affleck just asked me to fight him." I died, lol.

[@bellajuventina]

Papa can I watch Frozen? 😆

[@AshrafAnam]

+bellajuventina I'll never forgive Disney for screwing up Damian Wayne

[@KindaSorta451]

Such a great guy. Can't wait to see him as Batman...I think he's gonna ace it

[@vanmorgan1867]

Agreed

[@quinnquinnquinn215]

Veronica A You probaly don't know anything about Batman.

[@ElementaryHack]

Phantom666z what makes you say that?

[@quinnquinnquinn215]

Elementary Hack Dude, it's reality. I've absoutlutely nothing but respect for Ben Afleck, however he doesn't fit the role as The Caped Crusader.

[@quinnquinnquinn215]

Escorpion Venenoso They should get Ben Afleck, then overvoice him with Kevin Conroy and they should use the Arkham Knight suit. That would be good.

[@heisenberglannister700]

He is going to be fucking awesome as Batman

[@Nowaknight14]

Gonna have to disagree

[@heisenberglannister700]

We need to hope

[@daiseypaisley]

Kurt Lawrence Yup

[@RamsesVillalva]

Haile Hatcher Why would you disagree ? Cause honestly the only people who disagree are the ones who judge him from his beginning work as an actor .

[@zombirai]

Haile Hatcher you are going to eat those words when the movie comes out and i am personally going to feed them to you MARK MY WORDS

[@I.pray.to.George.Carlin]

I didn't know Ben had a personality? Learn something new everyday.

[@gaiusscipio]

Well maybe his family, friends and fans knew

[@TitoTimTravels]

Amazing Amy Watch him in Kevin smith movies... I have loved Affleck for years :)

[@JuiceHasser]

He completely lost his voice from playing Batman.

[@mohammedal-nasser2557]

From the juice my friend 😉😉

[@FranziskaScheumann]

He sounds a bit like his brother Casey here...

[@LegitJesusChrist]

+HufftyPuffty He used his regular voice.... I think you're still stuck on Bale being le batman.... Ben is gonna be the best batman we ever seen

[@logandh2]

+Jesus Cuellar He definitely did not use his regular voice for Batman.

[@Rosieangela24]

I guess you didn't know he using his real voice

[@ValpasKankaristo]

Ben Affleck is actually secretly Batman

[@septicsuggpewdiepie2549]

no shit

[@eureka0521]

@HarveyBirdman Did u two really not get that joke or am I missing something?

[@_Glory_to_God]

Yea he drink too much xD

[@Drift808616]

"I think Ben Affleck asked me to fight him" lol

[@jludwig5374]

just like Bruce Wayne. Putting on a show making everyone laugh only to distract from his true nature. I'm not saying Ben is hiding something but I can definitely see him as Bruce/Batman

[@linqi3127]

+R. Robin That's really shocking! I like that!

[@Whosaskin]

They never been in the same room...just sayin.

[@larryjake7783]

+Viserion Targaryen exactly, clearly he's Batman

[@thevisionist9861]

"Keep the car running!" HAHAHA I'm dead

[@Arian259]

This guy gets too much hate now and then. He is an amazing actor, director, and writer. Other than that, he seems like a great great guy! Dude is humble, he is gonna be a good Batman!

[@gabe3134]

not gonna lie this was one of the best interviews jimmy has ever done. he actually let the guest talk lol

[@thirdlucila]

That's not Ben Affleck, that's Bruce Wayne!

[@renragged]

"I think Ben Affleck just asked me to fight him." LMAO

[@Commander_Shepard.]

It's hard to pinpoint exactly where Bruce Wayne ends and Ben Affleck begins....

[@Mars-wq9hd]

When he starts smiling

[@leftmostsaihh1471]

+Marcos Gonzalez 😂😂😂😂

[@paulrodriguez3757]

and i quote "i hear you can talk to fish"

[@that1guy350]

his parents

[@Hu2Kay]

Darius Lyon do N OT !!!1!!1

[@pedroquedas8369]

It's really getting fucking annoying how everybody complains about Jimmy Fallon's laugh being "fake" on every single one of his videos and those comments keep getting likes. Once and for all, people: IT'S HOW HE FUCKING LAUGHS! Jesus Christ, people. Let it go, already. It may be a strange laugh but it's certainly not a fake one. Just let it the fuck go.

[@ColumbusWasWrong]

you said "let it go" :p

[@pedroquedas8369]

***** Oh brother... And you get likes for that comment. Amazing...

[@ajahni1901]

I get that that is his actual laugh.... However, there are some times when I think he is fake laughing--- not that he's making up a laugh and doing it, but that he's doing his actual laugh to something that is actually not funny.... *that* is what gets on my nerves, personally.... Obviously his laugh is his laugh, but there are times when the guest said or did something hardly funny and Jimmy cracks up like its a George Carlin stand up or something....

[@lilyjameson5156]

(SINGING) "Let it go...let it go..." Lol.

[@pedroquedas8369]

Ajahni Husbands Yes, I understand your point. But I really do think he's just easily amused :p So my point would be that he doesn't have a fake laugh, but more of an easy laugh.

[@clintonjackson1597]

This guy looks like the guy from Batman...

[@SoRandomGirl10]

I really hope you're joking

[@fireblade3655]

Chill guys hes talking about Fallon.. XD

[@-hasamastersdegreeinwumbol8565]

it's so very possible that he IS the same guy. I don't know if that's true though.

[@abbyc9924]

Now that you mention it, I can sort of see it

[@lisasullivan6376]

it is the guy who plays batman

[@MrVidau]

After Gone Girl, I couldn't be more excited about Ben becoming Batman.

[@InfiniteCyclus]

Papa, why did you kiss the babysitter? Why are you destroying my childhood?

[@nazihj7674]

+sistaledaren you sir deserve a medal

[@sistaledaren]

Nazih J \o/

[@salmamaka8200]

+sistaledaren it's nice to stop telling bullshit

[@sistaledaren]

salma maka wut

[@aznpanda510x]

+sistaledaren lmao! ( slow clap ) i like her but he just playing his role as Bruce Wayne. He not really cheating he one of those actor.

[@GotLost86]

I love Ben Affleck! His interviews are so funny.

[@edrodriguez4822]

he hirt his throat doing the batman voice

[@SQIRLDARKKON]

I don't honestly know how to respond to this

[@edrodriguez4822]

Lol

[@rogercasado8639]

When he said "Keep the car running!" all I pictured was the Batmobile turning on outside the studio

[@cheekyoziechick]

Most anticipated movie in my family at the moment. Ben has the best jaw line ever. He will do Batman justice.

[@KaranShah731]

He is really funny.

[@dearrain5639]

ikr

[@mayurp8298]

I want DC to make a dark animated series of Batman voiced by Ben Affleck.

[@Tiigerr]

Look at his body language and facial expression back then, and look at it in his recent interviews. 4 movies coming out, directing 2 of them, writing and producing another, I think he's overworked.

[@lovememorethanurdogwould5849]

Tiiger I think potatoes are served well with sliced carrot

[@saksxmusic]

he looks like paul rudd

[@rebruisinginart2419]

ikr!!

[@BakaryD]

No Paul Rudd looks like me

[@batmanfan817]

Not even a little what's your problem?

[@mackaylimegan2829]

Sarah Sakeer Ben stiller + Ben Affleck = PAUL RUDD

[@saksxmusic]

BOOPER DOOPER JSE YASS OML.

[@DanicaCidosa]

What happened with his voice? Is he sick?

[@aimeemarie5462]

He sounds likes hes very sick. He coughed and cleared his throat a few times.

[@neptune360]

I think its because he's been putting on his batman voice all the time lately that his voice has become hoarse

[@kubyn93]

He's batman.

[@gabb05]

Lam Hua no, IM BATMAN! lolol (christian bale voice)

[@neptune360]

I'm not wearing hockey pads!! (christian bale voice)

[@PlayMudSandGamer]

Oh god, please take care, Ben... his voice

[@TheYeahMan55]

haha i felt bad for him eventually losing his entire voice. but you can tell he is a great guy who loves his family.

[@jamihanks6962]

He’s a funny man, great actor... and when he slips into his Boston accent 😍

[@joyfulnoise6975]

This was such a great interview. Loved it.

[@latsboar95]

One of the only actors that made me laugh.

[@goddamnzordan]

Affleck is awesome dude!

[@aloneinmidnight]

Never thought I'd see Batman singing Let it Go

[@coltsrock56]

"It's time you learn what it means to be a man"

[@mrj6073]

LOL!

[@uaidadi]

Ben is really funny, and he's a good actor, just need to choose better scripts. I have my bets on him for the new Batman.

[@alexcastro7959]

I hope your comment was a joke

[@alexcastro7959]

I hope your comment was a joke

[@UnifiedaxxS]

Alex Castro He's gonna be a great batman

[@Mike918]

*Cough*Argo*cough*The Town*Cough*

[@georgegraham9822]

Mike Gonzalez Yeah, he's proven to be a fine director. In fact, I wish B. Fleck was directing Batman vs. Superman too. I'm not a Snyder hater, but I dunno.

[@zizozidane6984]

Great guy with a great personality

[@benjaminpeterson6470]

+yoseiki yeah he ruined good will hunting alright

[@benjaminpeterson6470]

yoseiki have you ever heard of good will hunting or gone girl? Are you just someone who likes to hate him cause its cool and you dont have your own opinion?

[@benjaminpeterson6470]

Well than thats your opinion but rarely does it the actor ruin the character because hes just following the script and directors wishes and hes quite a good director writer himself so i dont understand why you hate him so much he hasnt done anything wrong

[@benjaminpeterson6470]

And what proof do you have of this over ratedness and yeah as an actor you want other peoples input so you can improve and I dont see where you are pulling this info from because he wasnt over rated when he was announced as Batman or when he played Daredevil I just feel like you dont know what you're talking about and you're just hating him cause its cool

[@megatron2171]

that moment when all your children didn't appriciate you for being batman

[@yashmishra2901]

Ben. Affleck,s the badass batman ever

[@ShreyaRaomehyeah]

Looking forward to Ben on gone girl 💕💕💕

[@selinakyle2237]

I like Ben. I'll be honest: I was looking forward to see him being Batman ever since I first saw Daredevil, because I think that he can do an awesome job, at least in terms of his look. For once, I wish to see a Batman which actually looks like Batman. Everyone is concerned about the other aspects of the character, which I totally agree, but still...

[@johndanielsforJesus]

Selina Kyle - So, now that you've gotten to see Ben as Bats in two movies, what's your take? I, personally, think he's the best Bats we've seen. (I'd say 3 movies, but I don't think we got to see enough of him from his cameo in Suicide Squad)

[@RatnoHaiddy]

too many said "do you bleed" make his voice fade away? :p

[@tawrightDE]

This was an awesome interview thanks Jimmy for being The Man!

[@rayanrawanduzy4207]

Is he losing his voice from doing the batman voice so much or is that just his regular voice?

[@aimeemarie5462]

He sounds like hes sick

[@PlagaXTifi]

Too much sucking of the dick.

[@synhet84]

No he always got his voice. listen to his Brother Casey, it is the same but worse.

[@I.pray.to.George.Carlin]

Probably has a cold dude. Celebs are humans too (I think)

[@thatbrokevin7940]

Ben Affleck is THE MAN... Or better yet... THE BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@fellaontheroad]

jimmy's laugh is great!!! its been cracking me up since his snl days

[@e.f.6824]

love love love this interview!!!

[@kolos4650]

No, he is definitely The Man!

[@aminaaa1409]

Lol Ben Affleck is funny.

[@hiimelfo1748]

Wow, didn’t know Ben was such a nice guy!!!

[@Tgkjj]

+Schmatt Outer Space he came from the viewaskew universe most people that are friends with kevin smith are gennerally very nice

[@hannahlouisethreadgold993]

He gets more handsome by age😍

[@bobdylan7274]

they better fucking do they same for papi.

[@michaelolson4366]

I'm a sox fan through and through but if I'm being honest Ortiz doesn't come close to the player and person that Jeter is/was

[@sarcasmxkate]

David Ortiz is a phenomenal human being and a different type of player, what he's done in that position will never be done again because he did it first and did it unbelievably successfully. Jeter was a fantastic player and deserves all the accolades he received, but they're too different to say one is better. And the way Ortiz stood up for the city of Boston after the bombing makes me proud to be a Sox fan and makes me proud that he's a kind, thoughtful, and loyal person in general. They're two very solid and respectful men and they both deserve the best from what they do in life.

[@MegaDragonslayer1997]

This interview could possibly confirm that he's doing the batman voice. Either that or he's getting a cold. I think it's the batman voice. #IMBATMAN

[@dcchambers7713]

he has a cold. got it from his kids.

[@juan-davidmora1970]

That's just an excuse, it's because of the BATMAN

[@dudewotever11]

Your right I think he hinted it during 5 secs of the interview because I knew straight away that the voice was so similar to the dark knight return animated which makes sense cos his suppose to portray at 45-50 yr old Bruce

[@VFEA20]

Damn, I didn't know this guy could be this funny. Voices and physical comedy.

[@victoru8215]

His voice though!!!! He's ready! + I never knew he was somewhat humorous!

[@Silverjerk]

Maybe I'm biased because I'm from Southie, but Ben is a badass.

[@Tony_The_Monk]

Because he's BATMAN

[@redheadfirecracker01]

Never knew he was so funny and down to earth!

[@jacquelinetalavera3123]

Omg I freakin love him!!

[@o.w.140]

Ben affleck seems like a cool dude wish the best for batman v superman

[@warrenkensington6091]

What is Van Persie doing here?

[@mojibi]

Hahhaahha

[@LaReineBleue]

omg!!!! (y)

[@christinelee1949]

Funniest guest in such a long time!!! 😍

[@olivialr]

I haven't heard a Boston accent in so long, my family lives in NH but I grew up in Indiana so I don't get back much and I don't hear it often, it was like music to my ears.

[@killer2403]

That's Batman.

[@Nowaknight14]

No...IM BATMAN

[@CanadianRM4]

And you're Iron Man. :-)

[@Bigdeezy74]

Haile Hatcher Deadpool you're not Batman. How many times to do I have to tell you this?

[@mikewelder8250]

Donald Smith im blackman

[@Batman-yq9pc]

Haile Hatcher *Ahem* Excuse me? *Does batglare*

[@MankarCamoran8799]

Whoa he's going to have a son. Damian Wayne?

[@aioia21]

Never realized that Ben Affleck is so funny. Love it.

[@Zencobos]

love the glasses on the left duck

[@yanniesays]

He's the closest thing ever to a real life Bruce Wayne. ♥

[@misusa7]

The fake laugh that Jimmy does, can't take it any more

[@jeffbrown8117]

How do you know it's fake? Have you heard any other laugh from him to compare it to?

[@delia1985]

ok, BYEE

[@emilystuart7039]

It could be real. Both my brother and my boyfriend have real laughs that sound super fake.

[@eugenegrewing2587]

Oh for Pete's sake it's not fake! He's laughed like that for 20 years.

[@Donatello97]

Jeff Brown Yeah....The non-fake laughs(or at least they sounded natural and genuine) last year and before hand. Now he's just putting it on, it's so obvious.

[@monroe8828]

Love this

[@sanandidas9096]

Idk why he became underrated suddenly but he deserves more love and support cuz hes a champ irl. From his bad addiction to becoming sober he has fought hard n emerged victorious. I love him the way he is. He is a fab fab actor. I will stan him till my last breath. He deserves a lot more n better. I love Affleck like anything. ❤❤

[@nourxnf]

Ben affleck will always be one of the best and one of my favorites, but most importantly, he will always be my batman 👑❤️

[@kevinsagun9258]

I admire chrstian bale and i always enjoy watching him in movies especially the prestige. But somehow i see bruce wayne more out of ben affleck than him.

[@kennytran1551]

That's cuz he got the look of Bruce Wayne and he is Batman at this point and we're just waiting for the movie to come out

[@JamesPeach]

Yeah Bale face seems mire suited for a psychopath. Affleck has the face of a rich-famous-play boy.

[@lowercase21]

Yeah if batman was always going threw puberty.

[@xiang5814]

Yeah, affleck looks exactly like Bruce wayne

[@VSfraservalley]

+Jericho Swain I actually think Christian Bale was spot on for the role of bruce wayne/Batman but I cant wait to see a different version of the batman/bruce wayne from ben afflick

[@abi-uz5ln]

loving the bits at the end of the videos, also loving that ben affleck is so into batman's character that he can't stop talking like him.. I AM BATMAN!!

[@stefiswift280]

I'm really happy that Ben really loves his kids...

[@garrettdarkstar2647]

Pixar Kid even batman is sick of frozen :)

[@PixarKidProductions]

lol

[@King7Dom]

Why is Bruce Wayne constantly dropping into his Batman voice?

[@sufia14]

oh my jimmy's laughter....

[@bluesky6028]

He's so fun!!!

[@abhikoolblue]

Lol, Pike is right. Ben Affleck could be a stand up comedian.

[@eclipsedancer7]

really enjoyed this interview, love this guy

[@HeroGame7]

I wasn't a fan but when i watched the accountant. I really loved his acting there it made the whole movie on a whole new level

[@PermanentHigh]

Man of Feels

[@thekillingjoke8474]

Love his personality lol. Can't wait to see him as batman in #BvS

[@siblingproductions3764]

he seemed so happier then compared to now :/

[@someonethirsty1957]

What do you mean?

[@ielizabethm2]

It was nice to see Ben so comfortable in interviews before his split with his wonderful most kind-hearted wife. Nowadays during his recent interviews, he seems uncomfortable and quiet. Poor Ben, I just hope they get back together some time.

[@ScienceOfDeduction1]

This makes me think about when they did the Boston Teens sketch together on SNL waaay back in like '04 ish. It was the best tbh

[@shenanigns]

this proves that Bruce's secret 2 and a half year old son loves Frozen from the next Riddler actor.

[@rico6233]

2:48 .. see...that's how Jimmy looks when he doesn't find the joke very funny..but I believe other than that his laugh is genuine..he's just a very outgoing personality and he laughs a lot (I've seen a lot of stuff with him and he's just like that)..he's the host for god's sakes he can't be sitting there with a poker face ..think about how inappropriate that would be

[@1i1cece]

I LOVE this

[@titusyang777]

lol the ending was funny
