there are a lot of people who don't like Ben, but he is undoubtedly a clever and talented movie guy. Actor, producer, Director, screen writer - amazing stuff
Yeah people forget Ben Affleck and Matt Damon had to FORCE their way into the movie industry by CO-writing "Good Will Hunting" And DEMANDING they play star roles in that film. And if Robin Williams didn't agree to do it, it would never be made. AND if Sylvester Stallone didn't pave the way with demanding to star in "Rocky" a film he wrote and said he had to star in for it to be put on the big screen, we would not have Ben and Matt. Shit on those two men all you want, they forced the issue, they would never be big stars without their talent and grit. They earned it. Fuck all of you who say otherwise. And go Red Socks. How you like them apples?
Not typically a big Affleck fan regarding his acting, but he is a really good screenwriter. I really liked his performance in the movie HollywoodLand and I thought he did a great job as George Reeves/Superman. HollywoodLand is a great movie and very underrated, if you have never seen it, I would highly recommend it.
Coolest part of the whole thing is Clooney doesn't say a word. He doesn't have to. He already had his moment. Now he's letting his friends have theirs.
yeah, unbelievable. does anyone still remember argo 10 years later? i don't. same can't be said about django unchained and silver linings playbook - truly fascinating stuff, unlike another generic boring war film. this oscar nomination (surely) wasn't driven by murican propaganda, yep.
No matter what he does, people still hate on Ben Affleck.smh. He makes mistakes and stars in bad movies and you condemn him. He turns his career around, directs three great movies in a row (a feat that nolan was praised for), wins awards and brings out good performances and you still complain? You can tell by the way his voice broke in the end that this journey was emotional for him and he deserves it.
Actually I was so disappionted with Dardevil that I refused to watch any movie involving Ben Affleck for a decade. But i watched "Argo - fuck yourself" yesterday. Now I'm looking forward to his portrayal of Batman. ...But if he fucks up it's defenetly gonna take another decade for me to recover
Clark Parker that the thing for me too - Ben has always been better behind the camera than he has been in front; he started with Good Will Hunting and won an Oscar at 26 behind the scenes as a writer...then he had some missteps as an actor...then he went back behind the camera again with Gone Baby Gone and his star Amy Ryan was Oscar nominated; The Town sees Jeremy Renner also nominated for an Oscar and then you have Argo which not only won 3 Oscars including one for Ben and another nomination for acting for Alan Arkin...so as an actor - B-/C+ but as a director - solid A
Clark Parker get off your period because it a freaking buzz kill and no1 want to be around a girl when they're on their period. Once you become a "woman' you won't let thing like this effect your or even a lady.
"it doesnt matter how you get knocked down in life, because thats gonna happen, All that matters is you gotta get up". Fucking epic quote...this guy is amazing, and he is BATMAN.
I don't hate him I've just not seen much of his stuff. Never saw this for instance never saw him as Batman never saw The Town or Gone Girl so personally unless I have seen a body of work I am not going to judge him his personal life is his own business too though divorce is usually sad.
@@vithank100 You don't know that. It could also be true that he loved Garner but life happened and mistakes were made, and gradually two people just fell out of love. These things happen. And he is known as someone who is determined for repeated trying, cue the synposis of the current untitled Nike film he cowrote and directs is one example.
Completely agree. I admire Ben because he's honest. Although I think he struggled for many years to be honest with himself because he was so desperate for everyone's approval and acceptance. He's made plenty of mistakes and he's the first person to admit that, but he's also clearly trying to be the best version of himself and that began with his love for his children. I also admire him for having the guts to fight for someone he's loved for 20 years. Everyone deserves to be happy.
@@sinogarconyou’re right Ben is known for repeated trying but if he really wanted to get back with jgarner he would’ve a long time ago . Because of the children he did try several times to save his marriage it doesn’t work . Obviously instead he did the pursuing on Jennifer Lopez
Whenever I feel down, I always watch this speech. It always makes me feel better because it's so inspiring and you can tell how grateful Affleck is for receiving the award. He seems like a really good guy.
Before Ben Affleck was hired to play Batman, he won an Oscar as a producer for Best Picture the same year. Before Jared Leto was hired to do play the Joker, he won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor the same year.
EddieMachetti actually if we’re considering the facts Jack Nicholson won an Oscar and then heath ledger won an Oscar for the Dark Knight but is was posthumous and then Jared Leto won one for Dallas Buyers Club then Joaquin Phoenix won one for Joker this past week
Can we give a shout-out to George Clooney too? Dude was a total class act here: one of the winners and definitely one of Hollywood's biggest names, but he knew that was Grant (his producing partner, who was winning his first Oscar) and Ben's (producer and snubbed director of the film) moment, and was content to stay in the sidelines and let them speak instead.
+Margaret H Yep thats bullshit. Ang lee should not have been nominated and in his place he should have been Ben Affleck. Quentin Tarantino should have also been nominated for Django Unchained also
he won for direction the BAFTA,Golden Globes,Critics´s Choice awards and Directions Guilds Awards and guess what ? not even a oscar nomitation for director ? probably one of the biggest and most impundent snubs of history by the academy.
He said something along the lines of why do we fall, to learn to pick ourselves back up. This guy was dropping Batman references before knowing he was gonna play Batman, crazy. And a previous Batman is up there with him AAAND the joker presented him, coincidence? I think not
+Giorgi Tsurtsumia "It doesn't matter how you get knocked down in life, because thats gonna happen. All that matters is that you gotta get up" Amazing quote
Terrific speech - and especially because you could tell it was truly from the heart! He was honest, humble, and appreciative of everyone who's helped him - and his work on Argo speaks for itself-
+Luke McGowan I have no idea why he was passed on for Director. Ben Affleck may not be the best actor alive, sure. But he is one HELL of a F***ing Director! The shots, the cinematography, the Scope of his visuals ALL scream talent for Directing. AND he tends to be good in the films He himself directs.
He probably will. After the Snyder cut and hbo max wanting ben to return, I wouldn't be surprised if he's movie actually gets the green light. It'll be awesome!
@@aseem2985 The Snyder Cut was a success The servers were crashing on HBO MAX so that's great to know Hopefully Batfleck gets a larger role in Flashpoint and an extended role in the DCEU
Fun little story about that, actually. The Academy members get two votes, one for something they are passionate for and one for a film they think is a shoe in. Everyone there thought that Ben Affleck was a shoe in, so they didn't vote for him and cast both their votes to others, thinking that somebody else was bound to vote for Affleck. So, a mistake like that cost him his Directing Oscar, but at least he got this one to make up for it.
"It doesn't matter how you get knocked down in life. It's gonna happen. All that matters is that you have to get up." Thank you, Ben Affleck for those words of wisdom.
How can he not win the best director award. I mean when i was watching Argo, I legit was terrified within the first 30 mins and was at the edge of my seat for the most part of the movie. I never experienced that in any movie , that was so intricately directed.
I absolutely loved Ben's speech. He stuttered and sped through it. Just so genuine and maybe one of my favorites. You just know it really means a lot of him. And even though he's such a big name, he still feels like we all would if we were up there. Just perfect. Hope he has the chance to get up there again. (And Damon deserves to be back up there as well)
Perhaps the most beautiful, honest and heartfelt speech I've ever seen from the Oscars. When he can't even finish the sentence when he's thanking his kids...
He cheated on his wife and then tried to blame HER for his alcoholism/substance abuse AFTER achieving sobriety...not really THAT great of a man...and blaming others for your addictions means you're not accepting responsibility and will relapse. You hope for the best...but I'd be planning for the worst.
Because their marriage was a JOB and it didn't work, and Ben was already about to separate from Garner, and he felt sorry at that time for separating from the children.
Argo totally deserved that award. It is humerous, tense, heart breaking and overall a unique movie that depicts an event that people need educating on. Affleck did an amazing job.
Loved how Affleck had to announce the Best Director this year. He just looked like he wanted to get it over with. I still can't get over how he was snubbed...
I do not understand why so much hate Ben Affleck, this video is not a simple video but is proof that anything can be done. Look at his face, he is happy and excited, he succeeded in his dream and you criticizing not conclude anything, is a talented guy, and it's a winner, you just failed. (Sorry for my English but I'm Italian and I'm 15 years old)
right about 4:42: the tall guy coming up on the stage from the left is one of my favorite people in the whole world. Alexandre Desplat, who did the musical score for Argo. He went on several years later to be nominated for Best Musical Score twice in one year: for The Grand Budapest Hotel and (the hauntingly gorgeous) Imitation Game. He won the Oscar for the former. Yes I'm a huge fangirl of anybody who writes musical scores, and especially this guy
cristian trujillo Cranston could be anything he wants to be. He did the iPad Air commercial and even made IT sound like a decent product, instead of more obscenely overpriced nonsense.
It's so easy to forget all the different ways in which he's talented. He's not always the most likeable celebrity, but the guy has Oscars for writing *and* producing, is widely acknowledged to have deserved the directing Oscar for this film, did a hell of a job acting in it, etc. Now he just needs to add singing and dancing and he'll have the whole deal.
I love Ben man, such an inspiration. He came from sharing a single bedroom apartment in Hollywood with Casey and Matt, to being of the new kings of Hollywood. Just awesome.
I don't care about how people viewed the movie (whether you love it or not). Ben Affleck's speech was awesome. He was genuine and humble. He even gave respect for the other movies that also deserved to win. He gained my respect.
Thank you Ben! I love this guy so much he's so down to earth and he knows the real things going on. Love from an Iranian American :) You were a great Batman!
I don’t understand why this world is just so full of hate! I haven’t seen much movies that include Ben but the ones I’ve seen, he’s good! And he’s an AMAZING BATMAN! Like he really is! He’s so humble and nice and I just don’t understand why people would hate on him for being in ‘bad’ movies, it’s not like it’s his fault that these movies didn’t get success . So for those who hate, STOP, AND did you see how emotional he was?! He meant everything he said and I could just see the sincerity in his eyes! WOW!
Your username... your profile picture... I don't think I could've laughed longer or harder... You had more chance of being a genius than Einstein had, yet you've used it all up here. I do have a nice day now tho because of it :D
I love Ben Affleck. He's so likable, you know what i mean? i don't get why people hate on him. maybe he's not the best actor but he's ok. there are worst actors than him and everyone loves them. and acting is not what he is getting awards for. annnd i love how his voice cracks at the end. he's so moved. and him and his wife are adorable. and i was hoping he would thank Matt Damon :P.
I don't get it either. Ben is a very talented person, infront and behind the camera. His acting career was a bit rocky at first, but he worked hard and turned it around. He's a great director, and has done nothing but good performances as an actor since The Town. He was really good in The Town and Argo, and excellent in Gone Girl. Haters can go fuck themselves.
At the ending of the video with all of the emotions and excitement, Ben almost cried... It's amazing to see someone like him, his speech for his wife was very rewarding, and I hope that his movie will be very good... ! If the script of his new movie will be good ( that is sure that will be) it's sure that the action will be good too, Ben waited so much for acting as Batman, and now he has the chance, and I know that he will strive. For all of the haters, just try to do trhee things at the same time like Ben : acting, direction and production!
No matter what you think of Affleck, its great to watch someone bounce back from adversity and through his speech he never forget what those people did for him
Yes... And in mid-2013 Ben filed for divorce , though Garner disagreed. Ben already started his on-off romance with Lindsay Sookus in 2013, which Garner discovered in Ben's chats, so they fought once again and secretly separated. The marital relationship already was over in 2013. And they finally announced their divorce in 2015.
I had faith in Ben Affleck directing the Batman movie because of his amazing performance in BvS. I just finished Argo (I watched it to have a look at his work as a director), and it was awesome, and well-directed. I have faith in Ben Affleck #FaithInBatfleck
doubtful since the academy doesnt take superhero movies seriously. The Dark Knight being the rare exception, and even that movie didn't get as many award nods as it deserved. But who knows? Ben Affleck DOES have a best picture under his belt and it sounds like his new movie Live By Night will be another contender . Can't say the same for Chris Nolan despite how popular his movies are.
I love Ben Affleck. He does seem like a genuine guy. He may not be the greatest actor (not saying that he isn't, he's a very fine one), but he is an amazing writer and producer. What I love most about him, is his passion towards his projects. You can see how much he really cares about Batman and the DCEU and everything else he does. Unlike a lot of the Hollywood actors who portray superheroes, Ben does actually love and care about his character portrayals and what not and genuinely cares what the fans think. I will always be Marvel, through and though, Comics & films, but f*ck, I cannot wait for The Batman. This film could be one of the best superhero films EVER. This has a big chance to surpass Nolan's films, in the sense of filmmaking & writing, as well as the superhero/batman element (most likely). I hope Ben has full control of this film, and DC & Warner don't try to control everything.
TheSchoolOfPotatoes yea you can tell he doesn't want to screw up the batman movie waiting for the right script before starting production of the movie as he did say batman is a movie is not a type of movie you can silently fail at
Tamara N The divorce with Jennifer Garner, and his blackjack addiction. But now he and Jennifer are together again. So now the things are starting becoming good again for Affleck ^^
there are a lot of people who don't like Ben, but he is undoubtedly a clever and talented movie guy. Actor, producer, Director, screen writer - amazing stuff
he already is a movie star, he's still young enough, wants to explore all areas, why not ? while he can

I love how he dedicated the award to his daughters at the end and nearly broke down.. (Violet, Sam, and Seraphina) Very touching.
Because their marriage was a JOB and it didn't work, and Ben was already about to separate from Garner, and he felt sorry at that time for separating from the children.
was Ben marriage to jgarner tumultuous? did Ben love jgarner at all? Did jgarner know that Ben was going to leave her?
the way he tears up when he talked about his family🥺
Argo totally deserved that award. It is humerous, tense, heart breaking and overall a unique movie that depicts an event that people need educating on. Affleck did an amazing job.
I liked more Django or Life of Pee, but Argo is a great movie.
Loved how Affleck had to announce the Best Director this year. He just looked like he wanted to get it over with. I still can't get over how he was snubbed...
And We Never Going to ever get "The Batman" Directed and Produced By Ben Affleck .
I’m excited for Robert Pattinson Batman, but I also wish we could ever seen Affleck’s version :(
Affleck coming back for best director in The Batman...
hahahahahahaha good joke not even christopher nolan (except for best supporting actor)make it to the oscars in his batman films affleck has no chance
Maybe, but its Hard for superhero movies to get oscars-nominations yo know
Ralph Regis I have faith on him
bagus suherman heath ledger was a legend doe
not anymore :/
2012 was SUCH a good year in film-making!
Affleck is a great actor & a brilliant director 👏 Argo was brilliant
Ben seems so nervous. For being such a dominating presence, it’s kind of refreshing to see him react how any regular person would.
I do not understand why so much hate Ben Affleck, this video is not a simple video but is proof that anything can be done. Look at his face, he is happy and excited, he succeeded in his dream and you criticizing not conclude anything, is a talented guy, and it's a winner, you just failed.
(Sorry for my English but I'm Italian and I'm 15 years old)
Well said!
This movie was propaganda garbage, that's why.
U JUST SAID FACTSSSSS
bcs this is propaganda
Came here after hearing his Howard Stern interview. Damn. Bravo Ben. Bravo.
Affleck should have won best director. That was total bull shit.
Yeah, why wasn't he nominated after winning the Golden Globe, Bafta, critics choice, and directors' guild?
I don't know, all the other directors did a fantastic job. Argo went up against such brilliant films that had their own right to best picture
haterz gonna hate
I think Argo should've won best director and Life of Pi for best picture, but hey, I'm not the Academy.

Argo was a good film, but it did fail to nail the seriousness of the situation in Iran that is told in the book
This is one of the best acceptance speeches Ben Affleck was great, stifling tears
Argo is one of the most thrilling and best movies ive ever seen.
Idk much about him but Ben Affleck seems like a hell of a nice guy.
I just finished Argo a few seconds ago. It deserved the Oscar. Ben deserves the Batman role. Damn awesome movie!
right about 4:42: the tall guy coming up on the stage from the left is one of my favorite people in the whole world. Alexandre Desplat, who did the musical score for Argo. He went on several years later to be nominated for Best Musical Score twice in one year: for The Grand Budapest Hotel and (the hauntingly gorgeous) Imitation Game. He won the Oscar for the former. Yes I'm a huge fangirl of anybody who writes musical scores, and especially this guy
Beautiful score for Argo.
That was a really sweet speech! Good for you, Ben!
Bryan Cranston with the Heisenberg look at the Oscars. Enough said.
Wow. Heisenberg, Batman, Joker, Danny Ocean sharing the same stage.❤
Ben is brilliant!!!!!!! Both acting and directing
and he looked like he needed a moment to be wild for this great moment
2 Batmans and Heisenberg in the same stage? Epic...
Cranston also could be Jim gordon, he was the voice actor for him in the animated movie Batman: year one :) :) :)
And the Joker.
cristian trujillo Cranston could be anything he wants to be. He did the iPad Air commercial and even made IT sound like a decent product, instead of more obscenely overpriced nonsense.
You can tell he was nervous because of Jlo. She was standing clapping for him when he received this trophy. They always loved each other... 😭
Where was Jlo sitting at when Ben got his award? I didn’t see her was looking for her
No he's not Jlo is irrelevant lol
It's so easy to forget all the different ways in which he's talented. He's not always the most likeable celebrity, but the guy has Oscars for writing *and* producing, is widely acknowledged to have deserved the directing Oscar for this film, did a hell of a job acting in it, etc. Now he just needs to add singing and dancing and he'll have the whole deal.
i'm so impressed with Argo.Thanks to Ben Affleck for making a amazing film that i can understand about plolitical history in this time.
It's not very historically accurate
what a year for best picture nominees! wow, so many outstanding options! Argo deserved it. i’ve seen it many times.
I love Ben man, such an inspiration. He came from sharing a single bedroom apartment in Hollywood with Casey and Matt, to being of the new kings of Hollywood. Just awesome.
love how he's friend made a point of mentioning how he directed the film, almost giving the finger to the Oscars for not giving him the directors nod
What a beautiful beard he has. Looks so perfect.
3:41 two Batmans are hugging!
And jokers on the stage too lol
Shahrez Aziz and also heisenberg
+Shahrez Aziz I was looking for Jared Leto the entire video and then I rembered that Jack Nicholson was the Joker too lol
DaChanChanMan e
Fuck he really loves it he cried, never seen anyone get so emotional, he must work really really hard
I always liked Ben. Not quite sure where all the hate stems from. Seems like a genuinely nice guy.
I don't care about how people viewed the movie (whether you love it or not). Ben Affleck's speech was awesome. He was genuine and humble. He even gave respect for the other movies that also deserved to win. He gained my respect.
Thank you Ben! I love this guy so much he's so down to earth and he knows the real things going on. Love from an Iranian American :) You were a great Batman!
I don’t understand why this world is just so full of hate! I haven’t seen much movies that include Ben but the ones I’ve seen, he’s good! And he’s an AMAZING BATMAN! Like he really is! He’s so humble and nice and I just don’t understand why people would hate on him for being in ‘bad’ movies, it’s not like it’s his fault that these movies didn’t get success . So for those who hate, STOP, AND did you see how emotional he was?! He meant everything he said and I could just see the sincerity in his eyes! WOW!
BRUCE WAYNE WON AN OSCAR 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
+Cynical Movement Hahah yes three Bruce Waynes have won oscars and one has been nominated !
+Avik Pandey lol yup
Cynical Movement 2*
I don't see Christian Bale there
PureMadness why would you ? Bruce Wayne won the Oscar not bale
Walter White on stage.
like you username
Your username... your profile picture... I don't think I could've laughed longer or harder...
You had more chance of being a genius than Einstein had, yet you've used it all up here.
I do have a nice day now tho because of it :D
ThisIsAParticularyLongUsernameThatIHaveIncludedOnRUclipsForNoApparentReasonIHopeYouHaveANiceDay hahahaha
The thing I like most about Ben Affleck's speech was how he got emotional when talking about his family.
Two Batmen and a Joker, Oh my gush!
and a meth cook! :p
I love Ben Affleck. He's so likable, you know what i mean? i don't get why people hate on him. maybe he's not the best actor but he's ok. there are worst actors than him and everyone loves them. and acting is not what he is getting awards for.
annnd i love how his voice cracks at the end. he's so moved. and him and his wife are adorable. and i was hoping he would thank Matt Damon :P.
I don't get it either. Ben is a very talented person, infront and behind the camera. His acting career was a bit rocky at first, but he worked hard and turned it around. He's a great director, and has done nothing but good performances as an actor since The Town. He was really good in The Town and Argo, and excellent in Gone Girl. Haters can go fuck themselves.
I love ben he is a real person not perfect but real
Ben affleck is on a roll like really fast and nervous and handsome as fudge
At the ending of the video with all of the emotions and excitement, Ben almost cried... It's amazing to see someone like him, his speech for his wife was very rewarding, and I hope that his movie will be very good... !
If the script of his new movie will be good ( that is sure that will be) it's sure that the action will be good too, Ben waited so much for acting as Batman, and now he has the chance, and I know that he will strive.
For all of the haters, just try to do trhee things at the same time like Ben : acting, direction and production!
I have to say, Ben is so talented
That faint this is for you at 7:48 😢
No matter what you think of Affleck, its great to watch someone bounce back from adversity and through his speech he never forget what those people did for him
Yes... And in mid-2013 Ben filed for divorce , though Garner disagreed. Ben already started his on-off romance with Lindsay Sookus in 2013, which Garner discovered in Ben's chats, so they fought once again and secretly separated. The marital relationship already was over in 2013. And they finally announced their divorce in 2015.
Heartfelt spontaneous speech by Ben. Don't think I saw that year. But very cool.
Why is this guy hogging the mic?! He's got Batman on his left, and Batman on his right. Give us some damn Batman!
George Clooney was a shitty batman.
i freakin love ben affleck
One of the few times a Best Picture Oscar went to a film that deserved it.
I'm late but congrats Batfleck! So proud of you! Batman solo film will be the next best picture! 😃
+TheSimcraftFixion
And now he's the executive producer of the Justice League movie.
3DSDF Really? That's good news! :D
I had faith in Ben Affleck directing the Batman movie because of his amazing performance in BvS. I just finished Argo (I watched it to have a look at his work as a director), and it was awesome, and well-directed. I have faith in Ben Affleck #FaithInBatfleck
+Siddhant Pandey yes same here just saw Argo , amazing movie , he was also great in gone girl btw
doubtful since the academy doesnt take superhero movies seriously. The Dark Knight being the rare exception, and even that movie didn't get as many award nods as it deserved. But who knows? Ben Affleck DOES have a best picture under his belt and it sounds like his new movie Live By Night will be another contender . Can't say the same for Chris Nolan despite how popular his movies are.
Oh Ben, so much will change in 2 years :(
+Adi Adrian after the news it ré-changes in a better way, temporal rift ;)))))
+Adi Adrian Oh! You mean the divorce?
Alejandro Pérez Rodilla yes, it's very sad i think they're reconciliating :)
Ayrton Senna He broke up with Jennifer Garner ;(
Ayrton Senna No. He broke up with Garner because she realized he was cheating on her with the nanny of their children.
the most sincerest speeches are delivered by ben affleck whether for good will hunting or for argo! such a gifted screenwriter n director!
I love Ben Affleck. He does seem like a genuine guy. He may not be the greatest actor (not saying that he isn't, he's a very fine one), but he is an amazing writer and producer. What I love most about him, is his passion towards his projects. You can see how much he really cares about Batman and the DCEU and everything else he does. Unlike a lot of the Hollywood actors who portray superheroes, Ben does actually love and care about his character portrayals and what not and genuinely cares what the fans think. I will always be Marvel, through and though, Comics & films, but f*ck, I cannot wait for The Batman. This film could be one of the best superhero films EVER. This has a big chance to surpass Nolan's films, in the sense of filmmaking & writing, as well as the superhero/batman element (most likely). I hope Ben has full control of this film, and DC & Warner don't try to control everything.
TheSchoolOfPotatoes yea you can tell he doesn't want to screw up the batman movie waiting for the right script before starting production of the movie as he did say batman is a movie is not a type of movie you can silently fail at
*Director, I meant.
Me too I respect Affleck so much. Hope that he overcome all this struggle ^^
Ryan Irwin- Diehl what personal family issues does he have?
Tamara N The divorce with Jennifer Garner, and his blackjack addiction. But now he and Jennifer are together again. So now the things are starting becoming good again for Affleck ^^
