The DC Universe has been slow to the game when it comes to making cinematic masterpieces, unlike Marvel.

For instance, Ben Affleck has had poor reviews when it comes to his role as Batman. This is especially troubling since there are planned Justice League movies in the works for the DC Universe. The only successful reviews that have lately come from the DC Universe has been the addition of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman.

So, here are 15 even-better actors to play the newest replica of the superhero we all know and love, Batman. Any of these men could easily take DC Universe off of the ground.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
