Not to the conversation, but it would certainly explain why everything you don't like is "gay". I find your use of the word offensive, especially since you consider it an insult. I don't typicially hear anyone over the age of 15 using it in such a manner. Which, I would point out, makes you one of those "kids they should go screw".

I never said everything I don't like is gay. I don't like you but I don't call you gay, do I? And I said that's how other people interpret the character of Robin...as being gay. This is what other people say, all I've said is that I don't like the character and some writers have even almost make him come off as being that way.

I am gay.

Good for you, I don't care.

Much like the people on this forum feel about your opinion.

Your sarcasm and smartassness exceeds your intelligence.

And we'll find out how well yours adds up as soon as you string together a few words into an intelligent thought that illustrates even a basic appreciation for the actual history of Batman, and not the attitude of some kid who changes his forum name everytime a new shiny object catches his eye.

Ooh, smart guy. Listen, if you intend to try to pwn someone, how about doing a good job at it? I'm allowed to say that I dislike a character because I find him to be boring & generally uninteresting. It's okay for people to like him, but I don't so get over it. Mmkay?

I don't like him either. I just asked that you not insult so many people by saying he sucks because he's "gay".

And the first one to use the term pwn is usually the one that feels threatened. But who has "pwnd" who is up to the other's who've read our discussion, not us.

And before someone else that doesn't like this guy comes into the thread, there's really no need for you to get involved in it. I'm not trying to pwn anyone.

O good lord.

No one feels threatened, nor am I saying I don't like him because he's gay in the way you think I mean. When I said gay, I meant the way they made the character during the times when he had first been created. They made him seem that way, I didn't.

😂 I don't see many people on forums talking about Robin. In fact, the majority of people think he's gay & lame (that's just what I've read).

Because most of those people have never even read a Robin comic, so they wouldn't know how much Robin has changed over the years...

And Tim Drake Robin has been with several girls (a mob boss's daughter, a street gang member, a Russian girl, and many others) since he debuted in 1989, and had a regular girlfriend for a LONG time (Stephanie Brown/Spoiler), from the Knightfall series to the War Games series, so he's definitely not gay (I'm not sure about the Chris O' Donnell version, though)

Most of those people you speak of are just childish anyway...

If they don't like the character, that's fine, but using childish insults like that just proves that they are immature...

Hahahahahaaaa... Had a similar "conversation" with him in a different thread, so true.

On topic'ish, I've been watching "The Batman" animated series, even though it's aimed at the younger crowd, it's decent.

You didn't have a convo with me or anything similar anywhere on this forum.

If its doing so poorly, why is the Robin comics still saleing???
They dont sale stuff that dont sales. Batgirl comics failed, but Robin is still going strong.

I don't see how, I've seen him as having a big fanbase. He has fans...all characters have some sort of fans, but his fanbase isn't huge.

That about sums it up... Thanks for explaining it so well...

(btw, haven't seen you since before I took a break from the site, around 2005, it brings back memories of the old days: when Burton bashing threads were abundant and Begins rumors were running rampant... It was a kool time)

yeah.well done. 👆 Robin is definetely needed for a cartoon show.

No, he's not. Was he needed for Gotham Knight? No. Most of TAS best episodes were without Robin.

And yet the episode "Robin's Reckoning" won an Emmy Award...

Look, my thing is he doesn't need to be right behind Batman in everything. I want a series that focuses on Batman...a young Batman. Introducing Robin all the time just doesn't cut it for me, especially not in "The Batman" where I thought Robin & Batgirl were horrid. Give us a series with just Batman becoming more of a mature hero, and leave Robin out of it. If not, at least we'll have a franchise of movies without Robin.
