WM: So they casted for the Superman/Batman live movie that’s coming up in 2015!
Me: Mmmhmm
WM: So guess who’s Batman?
Me: Uh, okay. Can you give me Superman first? Henry Cavill again?
WM: Yes, he’s in for Superman.
Me: Ok..because that would be cool. If they just switched him over. Anyway. Going with the comic movie trend they should be casting a young–
WM: Nope!
Me: Uh, okay…hot British–
WM: (gleefully) Nope!
Me: No? I was going to guess Cumberbatch then. How about Brandon Routh?
WM: No!
Me: Eric Bana?
WM: Nope! Hint — He was in a super hero movie already that tanked.
Me: Uh, okay…Green Lantern? Green Hornet?
WM: Nope, nope. And the sequel tanked even worse.
Me: I give up.
WM: The sequel starred…(dramatic pause)…HIS WIFE.
Me: …………….Ben Affleck?
WM: YES!
Me: Geez. If they were going with 40 year old Batman, they should have gone with Jeremy Renner.
WM: I hate to say this, but he’s kind of a small guy to play Batman.
Me: He could be Batmite! But he’d have to lose the guyliner.
BTW: I’m available to play a 40 year old paunchy BatGirl, if needed. Call me!
