Didn't know it till this thread, but i guess I'm a big Afleck fan, who knew.

Also I don't find Garner that hot at all but J-Lo and all the other randoms are good enough to confirm hes the man.

Garner has a butter face.

Put J-Lo's face on Garner's body and you have a winner.

I would choose being a "B" movie star over being a pro any day man. Affleck's made the equivalent to winning like 5 main events or more for god's sake.

As for his Boiler Room speech/character, see Alec Baldwin's speech/character in Glengarry Glen Ross.

His good roles in some comedies, and his role in boiler room were good because of a good script, director etc. I can think of a ton of better people for those roles. That's difficult to realize now because when something has already been made and garnered fame and is ingrained in everyone's brains its tough to imagine anyone other than the person who actually did it doing it.

He's just been savvy enough to maneuver his way into good roles and working with good people. Not a good actor imo. Obviously he's also done a slew of terrible movies, and has made a ****load more from these than the good ones.

OP; don't troll your own threads, especially if you don't want infraction points
