Batman fans worried about Ben Affleck’s size

When Ben Affleck was cast as Batman, many fans were worried he just didn't have the physicality needed for the role, especially compared to Christian Bale, and Henry Cavill who would co-star with him as Superman.
Zack Snyder's vision for this Batman was that he was older, and more experienced, darker, and more of a brawler at this stage in his life. He needed to have more of a larger intimidating frame rather than a more slender athletic look.
Ben trained for a year with well known celebrity trainer Magnus Lygdback, and when combined with the new bat suit, looks superb as Bruce Wayne/Batman in the new movies.

@Noo So much is genetics, and people don’t like to hear that. I was 178 lbs. and 5’11” when I started a weight lifting class my junior year of high school. I didn’t do anything but just lift as heavy as I could and keep lifting, but I also swam a lot and played tennis, and ran for warm ups. I was 212 at the end of my junior year, and I had 11% body fat overall but 8% on my abs and arms, etc. Part of that is age, but the muscle part is my genetics. My dad held up a car while his friend changed a tire because the woman didn’t have a jack. He was 5’8” but broad and dense with muscle just by doing a lot of physical exercise outside all the time. I do think he was still a Green Beret when he held the car up. It was a VW Bug, but still…. I was 16-17 and it was 1990/1991, and I have never had access to any supplements. I have a lot of big and very strong people in my family. German, Scandinavian, etc. Anyway, a year of lifting heavy and eating great and doing cardio can do that for sole people. I had a friend in that same weight lifting class who lifted as much as he could, but he just got lean and wiry muscle and super cut (much more than me), but he couldn’t lift half what I could or gain much mass. Those were his genetics. I wanted to be more like him, and he wanted to be like me. Also, thanks for your service. I was in the r Army, and even running five miles or more every day, lifting often, and doing a lot of patrols in Iraq, I still didn’t drop below 197 lbs. at 5’11”, but looked lean. I just weigh more than other people, usually 20 lbs. more than people the same height who look the same. I would look anorexic at 170 lbs.

[@urticantspoon9960]

I like the way this Batman looks, what I dislike is the casual killing scene where he pulls the trigger and blows up a car with people inside(scene from Batman v Superman) the rest of the character I can see as a very dark version of Batman which makes sense as this Batman was inspired by the dark knight returns series Batman who was old and brutal but one aspect that remained about that version of the character is the no killing rule, meanwhile it appears from this one scene and the other scene where he shoots the guy with the flamethrower that this Batman doesn’t really care for his one rule anymore. Ben afleck did great with the character he was told to play and I think he’d do great as the Batman but this version of Batman is where I take issue with and that isn’t the actors fault that’s the writers fault. Now I never watched the Snyder cut but I have seen clips and it’s not my favorite incarnation of the justice league, it doesn’t really live up to the standards set by the animated series in my opinion, but maybe my expectations are too high. If Snyder was going for a much darker more semi-realistic version of the dc universe he did that pretty well.

[@urticantspoon9960]

@@milagomez55 I know In the OG it didn’t matter, he had a gun on the bat plane and shot people down, shot at people with handguns, then the comic book people decided Batman can’t use guns. Then the next 60 years of comic books came out exploring the generic character of Batman who has a no kill rule, an “I don’t like guns” rule, and depending on the incarnation of the character may or may not be fine with shattering a thugs collar bone and/or giving traumatic brain injuries. My comment points to the ANIMATED SERIES as a reference for a reason. I grew up watching re runs of it, and I liked that Batman, I liked that flash, I liked that Superman. I thought Wonder Woman smashing things was cool, my tiny child brain enjoyed it. And so I have rose tinted glasses towards it like another million or so people. I did not like snyders version of Batman, he looked cool and awesome and some of the stuff he did was ripped out of comics, two incidents from Batman v Superman were not. Also before someone brings it up aliens have generally been excluded from Batman’s no killing rule at least in animation from what I remember seeing. I’m pretty sure explosions kill. But the Batman my brain automatically compares every Batman I ever see to is from the animated series if i say it doesn’t live up to that, then in my opinion, OPINION, it doesn’t live up to that. “We’ll get off the internet opinions aren’t welcome here” I got that, goodbye, I get that my opinion gets attacked a lot I’m tired of people pointing out the same stuff every time as if I haven’t even bothered watching a video that gives a summary/history of a character when I have and I did fact check via google.

One of the best batman...the suit was awesome

[@heir2n018]

In all honesty his self depreciating sense of humor was awesome to see 😆 the fact Ben took it lightly but worked his ass off to get Into shape for the role was excellent in of itself. Ben actually has the ability to play a good Batman he just needs an actual script and Role to pull it off

Batfleck being batfleck 😂🔥🔥🔥

[@mrmurphy8609]

This was a great team of characters

[@thee_edward_]

He is my favorite Batman and to be honest I wish he would have done that Solo Film, he would have been a Beast!!!!

[@NickyLunaLove]

Out of all the on screen Batmans we’ve had, his had the best presence in terms of menace imo

[@e6staffsargeify]

I've always wanted a Batman movie with just him after seeing BvS, I like the digitized voice too

[@Faoludi97]

He's one of the best batman i never liked batman idk why but when i saw ben affleck as batman i fall in love with batman He look so badass nd fearsome

[@acgamingpresents9070]

He was straight massive, which is another similarity between Snyderverse Batman and Dark Knight Returns Batman.

[@meatwax]

Affleck needed a solo Batman movie for sure...he was freaking awesome...he was so scary and violent it was amazing

[@amayapierce19]

I honestly really loved his Batman and wished we got more of him in the role

[@JMrealgamer]

They said the same thing about Chris Pratt voicing Mario while not knowing he honors Lou Albano’s voice of the late 80’s cartoons. The OG voice of Mario.

[@therealest7959]

Zack got inspiration from the dark knight returns comic which makes sense given the look of the bat suit and his old age

“I like your workout program G” 💪🏽

[@monketo00]

Batfleck was one of my favorite Batmen!!

[@joshchacko7729]

I like how he almost started breaking down reliving his hellish workout regimen.

[@NerdAdventurer85]

I think even in interviews he's got a bit of a Bruce Wayne thing about him. At least the way i think of Bruce. A sort of fun-loving guy, who whole heartedly jumps into things but is intelligent with it. 😄

[@niellycristine4848]

He IS Batman from The Dark Knight Returns animated movie. I couldn’t be happier when I saw they chose Affleck for that “older” role. 🎉

[@VincentBones44]

The noooooo made me lol

[@Swnsasy]

I think he did an excellent job! Him, Bale, Keaton and Patterson as the young batman just coming into being The Bat was very VERY good.. Especially since he said he channeled Kurt Cobain that's why Nirvana was played so much in the movie...

[@jacobfilasky2729]

Twice

[@bhakt5551]

even Henry was surprised how big Ben was .

[@tonnyk83]

I love him as Batman . More plz

[@itztans]

"looked awesome " broooo 🤣🤣🤣

[@masanobuyamamoto6395]

They should have done MoS 2 and stand-alone Batman movie instead of BvS
