Ben Affleck has reply to the repercussion againstBatman v Superman : Dawn of Justice , admitting that some of it was warrant . Affleck has n’t had the easiest drive in his time with the DCEU.His initial cast back in 2013was met with ridicule and while many came around on him as an former Dark Knight , there has been rearing speculation about his own scepticism sinceBatman v Superman ’s critical drubbing .
His theorise reaction to the bad reviews in a junket interview went viral when grade to Simon & Garfunkel ’s " The Sound of Silence " , and since then he ’s been dogged by speculation about the future of his role ; first as manager ofThe Batmanstandalone film ( which has now been pass over to Matt Reeves ) and later whetherhe’d cling up the mantle and cowl for good . The role player ’s responded to the Sad Affleck meme and those hearsay , making clearhe ’s not going anywhere , but has only now directly addressed the film itself .
Speaking toEmpirefor theirJustice Leaguecover story , Affleck discuss how the fresh movie will be different toDawn of Justiceand sound out that he understood some of the unfavorable judgment :
" I can empathise multitude saying [ Batman v Superman ] was too dark , or this was outside the tone of what I ’m used to seeing with a Batman story , and I call back that ’s a clean criticism . "
Batman five Supermanwas criticized for a full reach of filmmaking problems , but its murderous , un - Batman Bruce Wayne was at the forefront , peculiarly in fan circles , and it seems the role player has come to realize that . It ’s a candid statement , specially in an approved feature , which highlights how important this is .
Although while that may sound like Affleck is throwingBatman v Supermanunder the busbar in an attempt to appease burned audiences , he ’s more trying to show savvy of the divisiveness of Zack Snyder ’s reinvention of the role . Indeed , he went on to talk about how , even though those involved understand the criticism of the previous picture , theBvSbacklash did n’t lead to changes toJustice League :
" But this was all written and position up before that movie get along out . The approaching was changed anyway for the second one . It was natural progression . "
This is a prominent view from the mold of the moving picture ; thatthe design was always to go lighter . Speaking further toEmpire , Affleck also said , " Zack want to make a movie that was more fun , that was a little bit idle , that was n’t so encumbered with heavy melodrama " while Gal Gadot added that " Justice League is not a dark or heavy movie . It does n’t have the exercising weight Batman v Superman had . "
Whatever the genesis , theJustice Leaguewe finally see will certainly be a lighter prospect than its predecessor . There ’s been a greater sense of comradery in the laggard and report card suggest thatJoss Whedon ’s rewriteswere aimed at provide a more real team dynamic . We have n’t seen too much in way of outright trick , althoughEmpirealso ply a hint at them with several shaft from Jeremy Irons ' Alfred when Batman turn up with the sleep of the League , show his sarcastically funny side : " If you ’d warned me , I would have baked a bar " , " I ’ll break get to the party hats and the pinata " and " I ’ll make some Camellia sinensis . Do n’t know where I ’ll find the cups . "
