    I think Affleck is a pretty decent actor, but the problem with him as Daredevil, or Batman, is those characters are supposed to be really tough intimidating guys, and I just don't get that from Affleck no matter how many muscles he has. Batman especially is supposed to be the badass of all badasses, so to cast Affleck that's a strange choice, who knows though, maybe he has it in him to pull a Heath Ledge and surprise the world.

     

    The Daredevil movie weirdly has a lot of loyal defenders, a lot of whom cite the director's cut as a good movie (I don't think it's much better). Bullseye was definitely the best part of the movie.

    As opposed to the super tough and intimidating Michael Keaton?

    This is one of those calls where I think the caller is trying too hard to be down and is failing. Listeners of NPR aren't all white and upperclass. I would venture that all of the people of color I know listen to This American Life. Am I less black because I listen to NPR and found that Harper High School piece informative, poignant, and heartbreaking?

     

    I should ask Andrew if people assuming that people of of color don't like NPR, craft beer, and independent films is racist. Oh wait, I don't even have to ask.

     

    I agree; when Andrew stereotypes "white people" he also alienates everyone else. Not very constructive.
