Jimmy Fallon had the perfect pick-me-up for Ben Affleck, who could use one after all of the negative reviews critics are giving Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Following a brief chat about the blockbuster film—which Affleck emphasized is for the fans, not the critics—the late night host got the Boston-bred star to play a game of “Pup Quiz.”
Each star had to answer animal-themed questions with the winner receiving an adorable Golden Retriever puppy dressed as a member of the Justice League. If they answered a question incorrectly, the dog would then go to their opponent.
Even a brooding Batfleck couldn’t help but smile while holding one of these cute canines.
It was a pretty heated contest, but things didn’t start off well for Affleck as he failed to answer a key Batman question correctly. The actor incorrectly guessed that the Dark Knight’s puppy pal was named Batdog, when everybody knows it’s really Ace the Bat-Hound (obviously).
Fallon seemed to enjoy his time with the costumed pooches, although they may have been a distraction since Affleck ended up winning the trivia game, and thus, all of the puppies.
