Share

It didn’t take long after Ben Affleck was announced as the new Batman for the social media world to lose its collective mind.

On Twitter, in a blink, hashtags related to Affleck-as-Batman news occupied five of the top 10 trending spots on Twitter in the U.S. But the #Batfleck on is probably the most likely to stick.
