: Q. But Ben Affleck, admittedly, has had his share of flops on his own. "Sum of All Fears,"
"Daredevil" and "Paycheck" didn't do well.
: A. The thing with Ben is very early on, they started throwing him in the action movies, the
first one being "Armageddon," and when "Armageddon" does well, they keep putting him in
action movies. I'd rather go see an action movie with Ben in it than without him. But that
being said, I think his stronger suit is in comedy or drama or something that is very
character-oriented -- not something where he's running away from asteroids or putting on
red tights.
What was their combined box office? $300 mil?
