I have come to realize that Ben Affleck is one of the worst voice actors. Ever.
shareI thought he was really good. I'm not kidding.
I'm anespeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericumbobulations...
I respect your opinion, OP, but personally I thought Ben Affleck wasn't that bad. I don't care for him as an actor, but in general he did a good job as Joseph. Matt Damon gets a lot of stick for his vocal performance in Spirit, and I actually liked his voice over/narration and loved the film.

I have to disagree. His voice acting may not be memorable, but it's pretty solid. It's not like he does anything annoying or out of character.
shareMan, I don't even like Ben Affleck (that song from Team America pretty much sums up how I feel about him :P), but I thought he was great here - he hit the right balance of cocky and spoiled vs. ultimately good-hearted in this kid who had a lot of issues to work through. It probably also helped that I didn't have to look at him. :)
I think Dreamworks at least pre-Shrek did an excellent job matching voice actors with characters. (Jeff Goldblum as Aaron in POE will always be my favorite DW casting choice.)
