WHAT?!?! ...... fuck you Travis!! i haven't got that far with cilvil war, thanks a fucking lot! I'm in Ireland, we're way behind when it comes to the comics!

Wow, i'm 15 and know who bucky is lol He recently came back as the new Captain america

"Bucky"... was one of Capt America's friends during the war that kind off ended up becoming his side-kick.

Yes well this makes sense. If you read the first few years of Batman's early career you will find characters like Scarecrow, Carmine Falcone, Salvatore Maroni, Harvey Dent/ Two-Face, The Joker, Ra's al Ghul, Henri Ducard and others. Especially taking in consideration reading Year One, Man Who Laughs, Long Halloween, and Dark Victory back-to-back. Case in point with the movies: Gordon is still a lieutenant, and hasn't even been christened as Commissioner of the city yet. So right there we know it is still at a way early point in Batman's career. If BB was Year One, TDK is Year 2-3. I know that Two-Face is setup in TDK to transition into a #3, and Robin is introduced in Dark Victory, but Bruce/Batman has got to get over his internal struggle first and clean up the crime bosses off the streets of Gotham before they could think about introducing Dick Grayson. He comes at a later point, like in a movie #4, being the last one, or a last one being #5, where he turns into Nightwing and Gordon's adopted daughter Barbara becomes Batgirl (not some silly story about Alfred's niece or whatever - sorry, B&R totally blew).

yeah, how long have i been out of the loop. who the hell is bucky?

who the hell is bucky???

then why say it? ya know, i really hate you!! no wait,...... i loath you! lol

I didn't mean that he's actually gay, but if u think robin's gay then u must think buckey's gay...but not me, buckey and robin r cool :)

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!! are you referring to bucky as in Capt's bucky? you better not be Trav!

All u guys can say to bash robin is that "he's gay." Wow, ur all a bright bunch. At least i gave reasons for why he's an important aspect in batman's history, even if i don't want to see him in this series. But, just for the record, robin's far from "gay." With that logic, Bucky is gay.

I jus think Robin should never be in the new Batman Franchise. I think he'd destory the darkness in Begins and Dark Knight.

I think everybody established that Robin is a tag-along fagit ass "hero"

Think about it. Robin. What a gay-ass superhero fag name. Robin. Ha! It would be no different if Batman had a sidekick named Tweety Bird.

Please don't put a faggy gay ass Robin in this new and awesome Batman franchise!

so does this confirm a new film

What the fuck is Robin's role besides being a gay sidekick? Good CB doesn't want him.

I would like to see Jim Carey as the next JOKER tho... I really don't care about Robin that much I think the movie is getting too serious for another tights to join force.

I think the robin storyline could work if robin starts as a small boy adopted by batman an trained. then becoming nightwing and done as a spinoff to batman movies.

Thank God

batman forever and batman & robin were directed by joel schumacher guy he just sucks just look at The Number 23

The director of those movies wasn't chris nolan either, vincent

Robin is super gay.

I think Batman Forever and Batman And Robin were terrible and those are the only two batman movies that he had sidekicks in.

I don't blame Christian Bale. Robin doesn't fit in the tone of these movies. This Bruce Wayne is not equipped to play anyone's foster parent, nor is does this Batman seem patient enough to have an understudy. I could see him getting older and training someone to take his place.

Please don't have Robin in the next film(s). This is called the 'The Batman Begins Saga' or something, where he's first starting out.

THANK GOD FOR THAT!!

Its up to the filmmakers, we are just "commenters" or critics however u wanna look at it

I don't want to see robin in this series just like the next guy, but i think u guys r missing how important robin is to batman history. U have to remember, when robin was created, batman wasn't this dark avenger that we all know today. He was dressed in gray tights, and blue cape; he didn't necessarily scream "dark vigilante." If anything, he was more comical than vigilant in his golden age tactics of crimefighting. Also, it makes sense for batman to have a sidekick in the comics. Batman's parents were murdered, and he vowed to never let that happen to neone again. BUT, then dick grayson's parents were killed. Logically, batman feels it's his duty to train robin in avenging his parents deaths in the same way he trained himself. A perfect interpretation of this is Frank Miller's "All Star Batman and Robin, the Boy Wonder" which delves perfectly into Batman's mentality for wanting a sidekick, not to mention the interactions between the 2 r hilarious; "I'm the goddamn batman." ha IF robin ever came to the big screen again alongside batman, this would be the book to adapt. If he doesn't, there's a teen titans movie under way, neways

Didnt matter in the 90s series.

Robin never really fit the BAtman bill, here's this man who has been emotionally scarred by the death of his parents and feels the need to avenge them by dressing up as a bat and waging a one man war against the crime in the most corrupt city ever...and he has a teenaged boy in short shorts named after a bird to help him? WTF?
