Why people keep saying this? Robin was lame and I hated it long before Forever and B&R.

Well, I'm not sure whether or not you are a comic fan, but there was rarely a time Robin wasn't a part of Batman. Honestly, I used to hate the idea of Robin too. But, I have realized what he means to the Bat. I'll put it this way, there is a special place and time for Robin. I just wish people would accept Robin for what he brings to the story of Batman. Obviously, he isn't the most popular character, and it isn't horrible to leave him out, it just disappoints me.:(
 
If superman can have a kid I don't see why batman can't have a robin.

Because Batman is not Superman?

Then I must ask you, how would you feel if Rachael was pregnant with Batman's baby in TDK? It would be in line with the current comics I believe.

Nolan could change Robin to being Batman's son and so then we'd have a new dynamic Duo in the movies, El. Wouldn't that be Marvelous?:supes::up::)

and also beacause the superman movie was corny

yeah I know but I see some accepting that superman can have his super child and batman has a child in the comics so it wouldn't be too left fieldish if a child for batman was introduced... though that'd probaby piss a lot of people off.
 
No sidekicks...in the name of all that is sacred and holy, please...:(
 
Maybe if he just had a better name. I mean honestly, "Robin!" Just not scary. I mean, "Oooh, watch out for, Robin." Might as well call him Keith.
 
Yeah, no Robin.

THOUGH...I wouldn't mind seeing a tip of that hat to old dick, well actually Jason, by having some random kid at some point trying to pull something off the batmobile and Batman walks up and scares the crap out of him and he runs off and then maybe Batman smiles and then drives off. That woud be it, no mention of his name or anything, just that quick little scene.
 
I'd like to see Robin but it won't be happening in this franchise.

They should NEVER bring Robin in. Not only that, but they should have Batman beat the crap out of Nightwing for being a pansy, and then have different villains kill off everyone who's ever worn the costume in the comics.

I will never understand the Robin hate...I love Batman as much as anybody else but his supporting cast is just as important. No Robin to me is the equal of no James Gordon or No Alfred or No Lucius Fox. I'd like to see him brought in eventually, just not too soon, rather than not at all. Ever since Nolan's Batman came out, the character has recieved all this unfair hate and that is not right. I can tell at least 90% of the people on these boards don't even read the comics because of the way they talk about this guy alone. It's one thing to not like a character, it's another not to acknowledge his importance to the Batman mythos.

I say Robin should be included in the third one. He's not as difficult to bring in as people here will have you believe.

What's funny about this is that if Nolan did bring him in and did a great job with the character, everybody would be going nuts about "How perfect" and "spot on!" and "He nailed the character!".

I can make an argument that the Batsuit is not necessary either, doesn't mean no-one here would throw a hissy fit if it wasn't included. You can make all the arguments you like about how stupid it is to include Robin but the same argument can be made about dressing up like a giant bat.
 
Never hopefully.

After killing the stigma of 'Batman and Robin' there is no way we will see them on screen in this franchise.

Nolan has all but said he won't do Robin and Bale said his prefers Batman as a loner.

If you have Robin where do you draw the line?

Batgirl, Huntress, Bat-Mite?

Batgirl becomes important but I don't see these movies lasting long enough to include her.

Huntress is mainly a Birds of Prey character and her ties to Batman seem to be minimal.

Bat-Mite is a pre-crisis f**k up as much as Comet the Superhorse and the Supermonkey.

That being said, I don't expect to see Krypto the Superdog in a Superman movie but Supergirl does stand a chance.

So says the poster using the lamest Joker of all time as his avatar.
 
They probably won't get around to it...but I wouldn't mind a Dick Grayson cameo...as a boy or teen or something. But only as nod to the fans cuz I really don't think they'll ever be able to fit a Robin storyline in there.
