This Trivial Pursuit question from a 2008 model of the sport has folks on the net in tatters.
Writer S.E. Sinkhorn posted a pic to Twitter of an old Trivial Pursuit card from 2008. Less than ten years ago in time, perhaps 1,000,000 years in feelings. There's so much we all know now that we didn't know then, and most of it is bad.
It's in all probability comprehensible then, why Sinkhorn took the question, "Who has never been Batman?" lovely personally.

In 2008, the makers of Trivial Pursuit concept we'd live in an international the place Ben Affleck would by no means be Batman. Little did they know that no longer most effective would he at some point don the software belt and take a seat in the Batmobile however that he would deliver forth the worst iteration of Batman ever, and that's the reason announcing a lot. If you have not lately seen the Val Kilmer and George Clooney versions, they had been pretty unhealthy, however they appear to be Citizen Kane after seeing Zak Snyder's vision of the Caped Crusader.
But could it's some evil film exec saw this clue in 2008 and began getting ideas? Evil, evil ideas? That seems to be the place a number of other people on Twitter are taking things.

The right kind resolution is Ben Affleck as he must by no means had been solid as Batman after Daredevil bombed so badly.
— Joe Lefoe (@JoeLefoe) December 4, 2017Others laid off Ben Affleck and took their blows somewhere else, trying to rewrite another painful second within the historical past of Batman movies. I occasionally do this when folks try to declare there was once a Ghostbusters 2 when everyone is aware of there was that one in 1984 and the NO OTHER MOVIES after which the only with lady Ghostbusters but indisputably not a third within the heart.

It's appropriate to disavow Clooney over the bat nipples issue.

Also, anyone identified this used to be a identical question in an version of Cranium, even though they do not specify the 12 months this edition was once revealed. But if it preceded Affleck's casting because the dark knight, that is frightening:
Conspiracy, anyone???
