there is a lounge! oh my. Also still not for a robin. Maybe a reference at the end but still not super thrilled
While I am for Robin, I can't see Nolan adding him in what seems to be his final Bat film.there is a lounge! oh my. Also still not for a robin. Maybe a reference at the end but still not super thrilled
If they can rope him in to do another Bat Trilogy, then yes.In my opinion it would feel real out of place but it is entirely possible that they can make that work
You never know, WB may offer him mega money to continue....If they can rope him in to do another Bat Trilogy, then yes.

2. To me, making Robin a dark, gritty character just smacks of this:
I mean, what's the point? The entire reason for Robin to exist is to lighten the mood. If you want to make a lighter Batman movie, great, put Robin in there. But please, no dark and gritty Robin.
alright, if this won't convince people that robin is cool, then i really don't know what will. as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
and how is robin not useful?..if he'd actually been not useful, don't you think he would have been out of batman lore a long time ago. the thing is, robin's been around just as long as batman has, minus one year. i mean c'mon guys...to disregard robin completely, or to think he's been a stain on batman...that's just crazy. if you don't like robin, then you might as well not like 90-some % of all batman stories...and besides, without robin, batman would be reckless...while training minors to become crime fighters is indeed unethical, it sure beats the crap out of a psycho batman and/or a gotham city worse than it could be.
See, while I hate the general segmentation of those suits, that's pretty much how I'd want Robin to look on film, at least in terms of color scheme, except more black, and just a "red breast" down the middle and up over his pecs. And I'll still never understand why the master of stealth goes around with a bright gold belt.
Nolan presents Wayne publicly as a complete bone head. He's a rich, pompous, socialite who gets drunk and throws parties, burns down his massive mansion, randomly goes off on vacations on his yacht with a ton of hot babes, and sleeps on the job. I can't imagine the publicly presented Wayne having a serious talk with Gordon about taking a kid in. Remember their chat in Dark Knight when Bruce runs into the van. Gordon thinks Wayne has become just another rich pompous Gothamite. Not in a million years would anyone allow Wayne to adopt a child with the public persona he puts across.
I thank God for Batman and Robin's utter failiure - it'll put studio execs off using the boy wonder for a long time. Just because he's a big part of the character's mythology doesn't mean I should automatically want him in the movies.
