Dropping The S-word
Who was your favorite Batman? Not many people would say it was Ben Affleck, but when the actor let the “S” word slip during filming, it was a memorable moment. Naturally, it immediately came up for debate. Does Batman cuss now? Is that too unpredictable? Can we get away with it?
In Dawn of Justice, when our potty-mouthed Batman fails to lure Doomsday into his trap and realizes that he is now coming straight for him he scripts slipped the “S” word into his dialogue. Not only did they get away with it, but it also shined a new light on Batman as we knew him. And frankly made him a more relatable and funny character, which is a good break from his often too-serious demeanor.
