Do you think Robin should be included in a Batman Begins sequel?

Robin in Batman Begins Sequel?

Personally I wouldn't like to see Robin introduced into this franchise but everyone has different views on this and it seems like a worthy discussion. Basically, would you like to see Robin in a sequel?

Also, here is what director Christopher Nolan recently had to say about the subject:

"Like Begins, one clear cut villain isn't the plan [though]" and the likelihood of Robin appearing "The studio wasn't interested in Robin. We weren't either. This is a young Batman, so Robin's a few films....not for a few pictures anyway. Dick Grayson's still in a crib somewhere. I seriously doubt I will even be involved when Robin's in the franchise" says Nolan.

I agree with the studio.....no need for Robin at all. If they make 5 or 6 six films?/ Maybe.

yeah... robin is neither wanted nor needed...

I picked maybe in a 3rd or 4th movie as long as they could get the right actor for the role of Robin.

by the 3rd or 4th film you shall beg for Robin. he is batman "son" and where else should a son fight but alongside his "father"

i think that there should be a movie about robin but batman makes occasional visits that could make a good movie

that could work A Robin featuring Batman movie....but I think they should put Robin in A Batman movie...(3rd or 4th..3rd would be better) before they make a Robin movie...it'd be a spinoff from the Begins series....Dick Grayson backstory and character are too cool and important to the batman mythos to be thrown out like stale Mac and cheese but until about the 3rd film it should be all about the Bat.

I don't mind a Robin in the movie but I agree is too early to re-introduce him. Pick anyone as Robin except Chris O' Donnell.

hair I think.

It would be treason to not include Robin- a huge and an important character of the Batman universe in a sequel.By the time the fourth film is made,he's GOT to be included.

We are in total agreement on that Wind.Whatever they do,dont bring Chris O'donnel back for the part.He was way too old back then and he would be even much older now than he was then for the part.

They're never gonna recast the same roles in these films if they didn't even let Elfman do the music, so don't worry about O'Donnell ruining the role for the 2nd time. I think if they do Robin it'll be in at least the third or fourth, and it'll focus around a kid that's younger, maybe 15 or so. On movies.com they have Barbara Gordon listed...I don't remember that part of the movie, but she's apparently in there. However, I think that the sidekicks won't show up for a while. After all, this is just the beginning of Batman's career. They could skip a year or two and start off there with Batman 2, and so forth, but they'll never skip like 5 years at one given time. Robin shouldn't occur until the third at the earliest.

yeah good point.If they didnt even allow Elfman to have his music in it then they sure wont bring Back O'donnel as Robin then.I just hope this time they can remember the name Scott Weinger.

Bale also talked to the Chicago Sun-Times where he expressed his thoughts on Robin, the character whom plays Batman's teenage sidekick in the comics and previous Batman films.

"Thank God, there was no Robin," Bale says. "You really don't need him because Robin makes it campy and not dark.

I for one am glad Robin is not in the sequal.

He's not needed.

Like I said in another Thread, have a Robin at the very end of the last Batman movie of this series. This was there can be a spin off (if they so desire) and even a good starting point for the next series of movies. But keep this series dark, dont have a Robin in it.

I'm glad you agree. The revival of the franchise does not need a Robin.
