Tis old news, but welcome news

Robin done right would add a whole new layer to the Bruce Wayne character... So at some point, I'd like to at least see Richard Grayson... But not yet...

Maybe, but not with Bale as Batman.

I didn't realize I messed the link up, so for those too lazy to copy and paste:

Pretty funny comments by Bale if you ask me.

What I wouldn't mind see happen. Chris Nolan could introduce Dick Grayson at some point and the spin him off into his own film.

Really? But they look like they were meant for each other!

Same pose and everything 😆

I agree with this completely.

I agree.It would be nice to see him in a sequal at some point,just not quite yet.If done right,Robin would be a great addition,the problem before was O'donnel was about the worst candidate possible to play the role,cant think of too many people out there who are that much of a worse actor than him.To top it off he was way too old for the role so people have that horrible memory to go by and automatically assume Robin would be bad for a Batman sequal.

same here as well. 🙂

robin is as queer as the senator larry craig.... this new batman franchise needs to stay solo with batman only.

What layer would that be? Creepy billionaire pedophile?

No, teacher/mentor/father figure...

Robin can be done, he could even kick ass, I believe it's possible, but they'll most likely blow it.

But look at Bumblebee in transformers, they made him kick ass, and trust me...Bumblebees not kick ass. . .

Not my fault you think about that sort of thing...

Anyway, yeah, they can make a good, believable Robin... Maybe a Nolan Robin could be the Batman 89 for Robin in terms of making him a serious character...

And it's not my fault you can't take a joke.

For the most part I prefer loner Batman. I do believe Robin could be done correctly in the films but I just prefer my bats the way he is. By himself.

You guys are all thinking he'll be a "side kick", but why not go the route they've gone in the comics?

Have him be a close ally to Batman... Let Robin kinda do his own thing, taking down the small time thugs and such, while Batman takes the Mafia bosses and psychos... And when necessary, have Robin and Batman work together on very large cases...

That way, you still have Batman as a loner character, but you also get what is imo, a vital part of his character development, and that's the mentor part...
