Dear Film Industry,

If you are considering giving Ben Affleck a lead role in a film and that film involves him crying, please, PLEASE reconsider. We all still appreciate Good Will Hunting and some agree that Kevin Smith (sorry, no non-offensive links available) knows how to cast Ben to get a decent comedy performance out of him. But you all now seem to think that he can play serious roles and that he doesn't look embarrassingly ridiculous when he tries to tear up and pretend to be sad. He does. Please don't make us watch that anymore.

Most recent example: State of Play.

(Since I can't find the relevant clip, watch this if you need evidence.)
