Exactly. It’s what nerds do. I remember this one fake female fan said only female characters take flak online and someone shut her up by showing how much negative flak Ben Afflec got when he was cast as Batman

I think consensus is that Clooney gets that title.
I don't know, but watching that movie now, it really isn't far off from the Adam West incarnation, compared to the Dark Knight trilogy ...

There was so much wrong with the bay turtles that her casting was just the least of it. Like the noses on the turtles
They did.
