Henry Cavill: Best DCCU Casting Decision?
@pokeysteve: didn't think of him. Sinestro was awesome. Cavil was cool but I don't think he was the best ever
We'll see how Affleck does.
I certainly think he's the best/perfect Superman. Plus look at that bulk! You know you want that bulk! Just looking at Cavill makes me want to close grip bench until I can't feel my tris....
Considering that Cavill so far portrayed Superman in the single existing DCCU’ movie, it’s a bit difficult and early to judge. Then again, I think that he as Supes >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Routh, so yes, Cavill was a good choice for casting.
Yes, Henry is a great Superman. Just wish Dork Snyder would have Henry be his charismatic self instead of having him be all serious all the time.
@superguy1591: I mean, he didn't really have a lot of time to be Super charismatic. Serious shiz was going down.
@jj_was_here: Superman makes time to be charismatic, that's mistake number for Snyder.
@superguy1591: In super crazy invasion situations, I'm sorry, but he's more to the point than he is charming or charismatic. And remember, he's learning to be Superman at this point. He's adjusting to this new role. There wasn't time for him enough in the movie for him to make that leap into veteran Superman. Have you read any Earth One? Superman is really not very charismatic in that. In fact, he's kind of a dick. Same could be said for certain new 52 iterations. Cut Snyder a break. He's trying to create a Superman that both the fans will embrace and the haters will open their minds to. It's not an easy job.
I'm pretty sure the OP was considering all DC films released thus far, as in the collective DCCU, not the one being built up currently. If so, then yes, he most definitely is but I can't wait to see what Affleck does with Batman.
@deranged_midget: Hmm, if what you assume is true, then, yes, I believe he is definitely the best casting decision that we've seen play out.
Batfleck is gonna be perfect

So far, pretty much yeah. I do have faith in Ben Affleck but his performance is yet to be seen. A minor peeve of mine is that in the comics apart from martian manhunter, generally, Superman is the tallest member of the justice league and with Affleck and Momoa around that really isn't the case. However, Cavill's chiseled jaw and incredible upper body make up for it :D
