Ben Affleck's 'Batman' Movie Has a Title

This is interesting: Ben Affleck's standalone Batman movie, the one he's writing and directing, will be titled The Batman. "How in the world is that interesting?" you inquire? Because the Batfleck we got to know this past spring had already been wearing the cape for years, and the Batman is the name the Gotham Bat-newbs gave the Dark Knight way back at the outset of his gig. (A la the Batman Begins trilogy, 2005-2012.)

Also, what a perfect setup for a sequel: The Batman v The Superman: The Dawn of the Justice.
