 Hey, what's going on everyone? It's be Avery here for another episode of just my opinion. Thank you so much for tuning in I really do appreciate it. So this news right here. You've seen the thumbnail You've seen the title of this video. This is news is not new to anyone pretty much Everyone has known this but Ben Affleck is not going to be returning back as Batman in the DCEU universe And to be honest with you, that's extremely disappointing to me I really haven't talked about that ever on my channel and I wanted to now and actually when Ben Affleck was first announced many Many years ago that he was going to be reprising the role of a Christian bill, you know as Batman I was excited. I was actually one of the people that was actually saying, okay I think this is a great idea. He wouldn't be my first pick But I am not you know complaining about that, you know at the time everybody was just you know losing their minds acting crazy You know referring to older movies like G. Lee or whatever and I'm just like you know guys He's a great filmmaker. He's a great director. He's a great everything. I mean he did With the town he directed that and he started that you know, I love that film That was one of my favorite movies of that year So, you know, I'm loving everything that he did and the Batman v Superman movie Even though that wasn't a good movie, you know, and I have it right here And you know Justice League was a disappointment as well I was very very happy with everything that he had to do with that film now Of course, it was announced about a month ago. One of brothers came out via deadline Just saying that we are going to finally get the Batman movie June 25th of 2021 so we got a little ways away and that is going to be directed by Matt Reeves now another thing That's just really disappointing to me is we're not going to get the Batman film that Ben Affleck wanted to direct himself In my opinion in Hollywood, you know, he is the biggest fan of Batman, you know in the world And you know, he's just not a fan boy. He's a fan So he's not just gonna throw a bunch of crap, you know into the fan into the film Excuse me just to you know appease fans or whatever, you know, he is he is a talented actor He is a great creative and he is just a die-hard Batman film I believe it was said once that has like a Batman cave in his house and a Jay Olivia This was on Twitter not too long ago He says hi bill the original Affleck script was the best Batman script I've ever read Ben had a kick-ass story and I believe that the audience and fans would have loved it That was actually tweeted out so then on this September 4th of 2018 and I want to see that, you know what I'm saying I mean, you know, he was leaking What was it? Is it I can't death stroke? I Can't believe I'm forgetting his name right here and I'm talking about Batman, but you get my point I'm just like I wanted to see that, you know, but I mean Ben Affleck, you know, he directed the town That is a fantastic movie. They came out was that 2011? I believe yet. No 2010. He also Directed Argo. I got there right here fantastic film. I mean beautiful film. It won best picture So I'm just saying to myself like what is it that Warner Brothers the executives over there Then him and Jeff Johns just cannot get along and just come out with this picture that we know is gonna be fantastic for all movie fans I'll come up with fans. It's just it's just really disappointing when you when you know He has such a great track record. You got Jay Olivia. That's you know knee-deep into everything DC Send out these good things, but you know the powers to be over at Warner Brothers just you know cannot Get things together at least the way I want, you know I'm just I'm just giving you my opinion and so of course, you know, Ben he went on Jimmy Kimmel other day. He said, you know, I tried to direct a version of it and work with a really good screenwriter But just couldn't come up with a version couldn't crack it So I thought it was time to let someone and take a shot at it and they got some really good people and I guess that they're talking about Matt Reeves. I personally my opinion of that. I am not excited about Matt Reeves Taking over as director. I mean, I'm pretty sure he'll do a decent job But I really just don't see him doing a better job than Ben Affleck here. Now if you look at Matt Reeves Excuse me Femography he directed a popular film that a lot of people know right here called Donna the planet of the apes Came out in 2014. I love this film. It was fantastic. That's why I bought it You know, this is something that I can Watch over and over and over again. Now, guess what that film that I just held up is related to this film right here Rise of the planet of the apes that came out in 2011 and guess what? I like this film better than I like Donna the planet of the apes and Matt Reeves didn't direct rise Rupert Wyatt did that and I prefer this film more than the one that Matt Reeves did The quality of that franchise went down and not only did Matt Reeves direct Donna the planet of the apes He also directed war of the planet of the apes They came after this one. That's even worse than this one So you have the first one in this series that everyone is bragging about that wasn't done by him It was done by Rupert Wyatt, which I feel is a better film than both of his I Was extremely disappointed with war for the planet of the apes and so now we're gonna be getting this person to do the Batman movie Okay, I'm not excited about it I'm gonna go in with an open mind and give it a fair chance But I'm not finished here and say that I'm happy about it. And then when we look at Matt Reeves Filmography, what do we have here? Like I said, we have Donna the planet of the apes and war the planet apes There was no war. He did Cloverfield in 2008. There was a shoestring budget, but it was a great film The ending was so so but again, I really didn't enjoy it. He also did let me in With what is a character's name the real name? Chloe Grace Moretz. She was hit girl in the kick-ass movie that came out in 2010 fabulous movie as well You know, so he has those under his belt simple before that You know a bunch of TV series and things like that But I mean all the best thing on his resume right now is Donna the planet of the apes Which I like rise of the plenty of the apes better And you know now he's gonna be over Batman instead of a person that was able to give us a best picture win in 2010 so I don't know guys that then you know reports are coming out that army hammer Was going to be the Batman. There's a site because the revenge of fans. Y'all was gotta check the source He's like breaking army hammer and finals house to be Batman the exclusive is time and then some people over at Was a THR the Hollywood reporting variety Justin Croll and Boris kit. I'm not just gonna read that tweets. You've already seen them probably. Well, no, maybe you haven't but Boris kit from the the Hollywood reporter. I'm not in the business of the bunking Bunk but considering everyone got dizzy over this There's no truth to the below talking about the tweet from we're being defense being told There's no truth to this below being told they haven't been any other meetings of the Batman But it doesn't mean that Reeves and Warner Brothers don't have ideas of who they were like I'm pretty sure they have an idea who they like that Daniel Radcliffe Name was not not Daniel Radcliffe. Excuse me. The Twilight guy Robert Patterson name was floating around and then Justin Crowell The gentleman with variety one of the major film publications trades Yeah, that Batman rumors false that said potential for this week to be very interesting on a number of front front sleep tight, so The army hammer thing is not happening With the heat was he my first choice? Absolutely not But what I'd be pissed off. I mean, I don't know I would get over it But guys I am bummed out that I mean it's old news But you know, it's out the bag to cast out the bag I was still kind of just hoping that they would trick us But pretty much confirm now that a Batman that Ben Affleck is not gonna be Batman I'm bummed out about it. You know, I had we had a good little thing going on with man is still you know continuity with BVS and Wonder Woman and Justice League and now it's all just we got it all together and it's just falling apart You know, it's just falling apart. I don't have a suicide squad They're rebooting that in the way cuz it sucks But guys that is just my opinion on this latest news that has come out about Batman the DC army hammering all that good stuff What did you think? I mean, you know, are you happy with Batman being out Matt Reeves coming in? You know, you're not what did you want?
