True, but typically only for articles that don't cite any sources. The passage I posted was cited with this source:

Andrae, Tom; Blum, Geoffrey; Coddington, Gary (August 1983). "The Birth of Superman". In Marschall, Richard. Nemo, the Classic Comics Library (Fantagraphics Books) (2): 6–19.

For fuck sake. How many threads have to be derailed into a religion debate before a banning? Nobody gives a shit. Take it to the religion forum.

Mod Note: Moviefan, this is your last chance. You have been warned about bringing religion into threads in Movie Talk before. You've also been warned about misrepresenting Jews. If you continue to do either you will be suspended.

So he's been trained as a master assassin since birth.
Spoiler:
Damian was a badass. He got killed off by an adult clone of himself recently. Bruce hid the death because he was secretly trying to resurrect Damian. But the League of Assassins stole Damian's body and have plans to further torment Bruce. Meanwhile, they have a whole mess of Damian Wayne clones.

"El" is also Spanish for "The". In other words, as taffer said, his Kryptonian name means nothing.

Affleck is wrong for Batman! Like Clooney, he just doesn't have the right acting skills to pull off these kind of roles. Did the execs at Warner Bros not watch Daredevil?

Daredevil was a decade ago. How about looking at something more recent like The Town or Argo?

For fuck's sake, people are STILL bringing up Daredevil??

A billion things went wrong with that movie, but Affleck's performance wasn't one of them...

Actually, Clooney would have been perfect as Batman if the studio edict had not been to make what amounted to a poor homage to the Adam West series designed for the sole purpose of selling toys.

Dare Devil was fucking amazing.

This is brilliant casting and I can't wait to not watch this (so long as Snyder is involved - fool me once...)

Any chance we'll get a musical out of this? I mean, if Batman & Robin got one...

All of these hastily done mockups of Ben in the suit look like shit, but again, this should be fun.

And of course the "Fire Affleck As Batman" petition.

There is more internet interest over this than Syria and Egypt COMBINED.

But wait there's more..


Someone even submitted a petition to the White House "We the People" petition system that asked the government to make it illegal for Ben Affleck to portray Batman, or any other superhero for 200 years.

Being an atheist, I hate to get on the Superman/religion thing, but it is sort of there.

If you squint, you can sort of see the Golem myth in the early appearances of Superman. And it's not a stretch to later turn Superman into sort of a Christ-figure...
