However, the big difference between Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and this new Batman film is that the latter is powered by Ben Affleck’s chops as a writer/director/actor triple threat.
After the fallout of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, audiences have made one thing clear: Ben Affleck was the bomb as Batman, yo.
Still, the possibility remains that Batman’s solo effort, much like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, could suffer from the sin of too much of a pre-established universe being loaded into one film’s story.
What’s interesting about this tactic is that it’s the same sort of strategy that Zack Snyder used when crafting the story for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
