Affleck Signs Up for Debut as Film Director

I thought that Affleck was just in an acting slump, but now I wonder if he'll ever have another hit movie. It could still happen. John Travolta made a great comeback after many years. Maybe this directing gig will pan out for him.

Well, you know the old saying - Those who can't...teach.

Le'ts watch another Hollywood big shot try and depict a realistic portrayal of a working class neighborhood (i.e-like Mysitc River so AMAZINGLY did with [my hometown] South Boston!)

The idiot is from Cambridge! That is far from a working class neighborhood.

Ben Affleck sucks anyways.

I used to live in Southie.

Now I live in Georgia.

There's no comparison (IMO) but Georgia's OK but I miss South Boston (alot)

Too bad it's invested with high $$$ condos and ugly yuppies (who, fyi, are too scared to make eye contact with Southie teenagers, believe me I've done it and they get a scared look & look to the ground

)
