Would/will + like

Hello,

This is amazing picture. Ben should see this!

Which of these blocks include correct replies to above? (A or B?)

A:
A1) Do you think he would like it?
A2) Yes, I think he would like it.
B:
B1) Do you think he will like it?
B2) Yes, I think he will like it.

Thanks.

Both are possible grammatically, but the set-up makes it look as though the speaker is going to show Ben the picture quite soon. That means it's a real situation, not a theoretical discussion. So B is more appropriate.
