Yeah, but Robin John Blake becomes the Batman, so now it's his.

 

[Travesty]

No?

 

[JackWhite]

No?

Unfortunately you have a point. I hate to admit it, but that awesome chalk logo has now been ruined; now that it is officially Robin Blake's.

 

[Travesty]

That's Robin John Blake to you, sir!

BTAS Robin > Burt Ward Robin . . . . . . . . > Chris O' Donnel Robin > Joseph Gordon Levitt Robin


Everyone knows your bones don't contain emotional feelings. That's George Lucas writing right there. I was waiting for Blake to tell Bruce that sand irritates him too.

Well excuse me then, .

at that last part. Are you saying that they dont know that already? Lmao, jesus. Do you take everything literally? Or do you only choose to do that when it comes to things that you dont like, so you can convince yourself that it's way worse than it already is. Lucas writing? Well, considering ive never felt any emotion from him, yet i feel a ton of emotion in Blake's speech (and it's not just JGL's performance). No it's nothing like Lucas.

As for the first part..

Forever Robin wasn't as bad as the next movie, but still pretty lame. Burt Ward Robin had funny moments but mainly annoying. I do like Robin's Reckoning. As a matter of fact ive always liked Dick's origin as it relates to Bruce, and i quite like Nightwing when written and drawn a certain way. But ive never been a fan of Grayson anytime he's Robin. Hated Jason Todd, glad they killed him off in the 80's. Kelly was a nice change in pace but i could still do without her. Drake is actually the only Robin that i ever liked once he's trained and working as Batman's sidekick. Even then, i mainly like how he deduced Batman's identity, which influenced Blake's character.

Shauner, you're breaking my heart! You're going down a path I cannot follow!

O' Donnel Grayson is quite good in Forever. The characterization was pretty spot on for a film. I loved the speeches about justice and revenge. For me, it starts to fall apart when they go to Claw Island in the end though. He ends up being a hostage that Batman has to save (sort of like the comics), nothing more.

Batman and Robin Robin blew though. I felt sorry for Chris O' Donnell.

Burt Ward Robin had funny moments but mainly annoying.

Burt Ward Robin made Batman look like a ***** when it came to Riddles. Without Robin, Batman would be dead. Robin also tied with Bruce Lee when they fought. Superior Robin.

BTAS had it perfect. While I prefer a solo Batman, having Robin partner up with him when he was on his college breaks from Gotham University was brilliant. Robin was actually cool and hard nosed. Robin's Reckoning is one of the best BTAS episodes. If a filmmaker were to adapt it this way, it would work.

 

[Travesty]

But Robin John Blake can see faces. That counts for something, right?

 

[The Batman]

Bones and stuff? I dont see how it's funny that a person is so angry that they feel it deep in their bones, in their soul, from losing the only people they loved. HAAAAA HAAAAAH! soooOO funny!

I have to LOL at how seriously you take these discussions sometimes...

Burt Ward Robin made Batman look like a ***** when it came to Riddles. Without Robin, Batman would be dead. Robin also tied with Bruce Lee when they fought. Superior Robin.

See, I always interpreted that as West Batman making sure that Robin could figure out riddles on his own, hence why he'd say things like "Precisely" after Robin solved them, instead of something like "Why didnt I think of that?"

For example, at the climax of the first Riddler story, it was Batman who correctly pointed out the location of Riddler's final scheme when Robin guessed wrong.

Well you know he feels these discussions in his bones and stuff...

Hahahaahha, well played Mr. Napier

 

[shauner111]

Me? "I" take these discussions seriously? Hahahahahahaha. Riight.

[shauner111]

Sorry, not everybody can be like Travesty who just exists on this forum to post sarcastic remarks and gifs.

 

[Travesty]

Come on, Shauner. Don't do me like that, brahhhh! Now I may not see faces and and feel things in my bones like you, but at least I'm no hothead.

Never change your avatar, location or sig. This is definitely you now. "Robin John Blake", a true Travesty.

His location in his sig had me in stitches.

Looks like I missed some good entertainment.

That gif is how I feel every time I see people on here ranking something like the Chris O'Donnell Robin over Blake. There is a point when whining becomes trolling. We crossed it months and months ago.
