He looks done and tired and the DCCU isn't going good.
Hope he can leave and whatever he wants, a shame though, he is great as the Bat

The moment you realize you'll have to work with a "method" acting Jared Leto, and expect weird things in the mail for the next eight months.

That pic is greatness because we all been there, when you are just plain tired of it all. You on your last break and still got 2 hours becfore you can leave

He'd be justified punching him in the mouth for real and chalking it up to staying in character.

That's what I'd do at least.
 
Is John Campea reliable? All I know about the guy is that he hated Laurel so much on Arrow he blew up over her and stopped watching the show. Plenty of reasons not to watch, but his came off as pretty pathetic.

Hit or miss. But he gave huge caveats on this one.

How come you don't get these kinda of rumors out of Marvel or Fox? Except for the Fantastic Four

Because when things are going bad, that's when the leaks start to happen. People start to leak to show that whatever went wrong wasn't their fault.

Example, and i'll bold this: What leak do you have from Wonder Woman?

Some people may try to say because it's DC, but no. Bad productions have leaks. Solid to great productions don't.
 
You know we are talking batman, but Wonder Woman is out in a few months. And no one talks about taht

I wish i had seen your post.

You haven't heard anything about the movie except a 2 trailers.

Don't know if that is good or bad, but we will see

Wasn't there a leak that it was bad as well? Thread here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1334822
 
It's both hard and easy to believe at the same time.

Think about how shitty something has to be to make someone not want to be Batman anymore. Hell, the ad campaign for The Lego Batman Movie was centered around the fact that it is always better to be Batman than to be anyone else.

Poor Ben. He's a good dude and this was a dream role for him. It's really sad if this is true.

Yeah, make people realize how trash every X-Men movie save one has been

You...are not wrong.
 
This isn't true. He loves playing batman for his young son to see. In an interview he even said he had the studio send him the bat costume from the movie so he could dress up for his son's birthday party. He will play Batman for his son.
 
Caveats and all, I believe it. The way it's said is important: he wants out. There's no saying if he can or not, the contract being the big key here.

In movies his son won't be allowed to see for 10 years. Makes sense.

Hint, The Wolverine ain't the one because that last act is garbo

This is exactly why the "the first 40 minutes of Logan are fantastic!" gushing does not convince me of anything whatsoever. We've seen Wolvie blow it in the third act once before.
 
For as much as Cavizel made a great non batman batman in Person of Interest, I don't want to see him involved in this mess he don't deserve it.

Honestly no talented actors deserve the DCEU. Unless you're in dire need of money and/or of the spotlight, I don't see why anyone of note would want to associate themselves with this shitshow at this point.

They need to seriously consider a hard reboot for their plans. Preferably they should stop chasing Marvel and do movies that at some level come from a creative standpoint like Nolan's Batman Begins instead of purely from the idea to create a megafranchise that you can (potentially) milk forever. This mess all started with Man of Steel, which was made (and by made I mean rushed to production with a half-baked cacascript helmed by a director that didn't care about its caca-status) because WB was in danger of losing the rights to some elements of Superman.
