DC attracts the best.

This may be the first comic book movie nominated for an Oscar for best film.

There is some cool images and shots but a very unlikable film as a whole and the editing was a mess.

I have no trouble believing that Affleck and whomever he works with can write and direct a damn good Batman story.

If DC wants to make another somewhat intelligent move, they'll tell Zack Snyder to piss off as soon as possible.

if wb was smart they would let bruce timm be the architect of the dc cinematic universe and relegate snyder to only composing and shooting the action scenes. having affleck direct batman is a step in the right direction though.
