I have seen something like two Affleck films. One was Chasing Amy, and when I left the theater I said "he will be a star someday." The other was Good Will Hunting. His choice of projects since then has just not led me to the theater or even the video library/streaming service. But everything I hear about him now says he is talented and smart. I will not prejudge him for any role

The DC movie I would love to see that will never be made is The Elongated Man. I consider him much cooler than Reed Richards and much less of a jerk than Plastic Man; also, mystery crossovers FTW. But he's virtually unknown in the wider culture, so they'll never even consider him.
Only if they get someone really REALLY good to play Sue Dibny. An Elongated Man movie without Sue would be like making a Sherlock Holmes movie without Watson. Ralph may have the stretching powers, but Sue is an equal partner.
This is a building block to a wider DC Universe, though. Yeah, Superman and Batman are very familiar, but we haven't seen them in live action together. And then there's Ollie and Barry on the small screen...
