Warner Brothers, you sure know how to get DC fans excited, don't you?

Reportedly, they've offered the director's chair for the Justice League movie to Ben Affleck. Say what?

Marvel's done nicely overall picking unique filmmakers with solid genre experience, and Joss Whedon certainly knew what he was doing on The Avengers.

For some reason, WB still has "gritty reboot" on the brain if they want The Town director and former Daredevil Affleck to lead the League.

Regardless of how Affleck would do if he accepts, it's a risky move for Warners, and feels like a big middle-finger salute to DC fans hoping for a geek director who will do these heroes justice.

Who would you want to see in charge of the JLA movie?
