Um, no.
Iron Man said:What do YOU think?
Iron Man said:I once wrote an idea down (about 3 months ago) where Dick Grayson/Robin is in his own feature film...without Batman. (Well, Bruce Wayne is there, he's just not Batman anymore) The story goes like this...
"Dick Grayson is a smart young man working for Wayne Enterprises, Bruce Wayne's company. When Bruce is so impressed by Grayson's work, he invites Dick to his granddaughter's birthday party, (who Dick is in love with) but Bruce has another suprise for Grayson. When Grayson arrives at Wayne Manor, he falls through a mysterious hole, leading him into the BatCave. He finds Batman's costumes, arsenal, and Batmobile. Bruce Wayne then steps in, and tells Grayson his origin. (Please be aware that Wayne is about 70 by now) Grayson is offered the life of a superhero and accepts. He becomes ROBIN, the Boy Wonder (well, the Man Wonder) and fights the crime in Gotham City. He becomes an instant celebrity, and loves the attention, but will it consume him?......"
I didn't really think of a villain (like Joker or Two-Face) but I think it'd be great to see Robin in his own series of movies if he's not going to be in Nolan's Batman series. What do YOU think?
GL1 said:I thought a Robin movie should actually follow the plot of the comics, where a circus kid loses his parents and gets taken in by Bruce Wayne. The background explains a younger person would be any good at acrobatics, swinging, throwing weapons, disguises and sleight of hand that would make him useful at all to Bruce Wayne's mission.
You put him through his paces, give him a young love interest -- call her Alice and make her a target for Mad Hatter, you brining in Killer Croc for muscle and we can attatch them emotionally by having them come from the same circus.
Keep Batman in the background as a harsh trainer and let Robin fly Solo, as he almost always does, in an effort to stop Mad Hatter and prove himself. Done deal.
Have to agree with you there. Nightwing NEEDS his own Movie!SpeedballLives said:I think a Nightwing movie would work better than a Robin movie.

People always say the same crap. "Nightwing is cooler than Robin." What they really mean to say is "Nightwing's costume is cooler than Robin's," because that's pretty much the only difference. And when they say that, they always think of the yellow cape and green underwear, because heaven forbid Robin be included in a movie wearing Tim Drake's costume or an amalgamation of Robin & Nightwing's suits.GL1 said:This always confuses me...
1) They're the same character.
2) Batman: Year One/Two/Three is of the same (a lower) experience level of a Nightwing, has the same method of Operation, much of the same supporting cast and generally, is like making Batman "2" with a different character.
3) Robin's costume can be updated, just as it has been in comics.
Ahh. I have seen this. Guys if you haven't seen "Grayson" you really need to check it out. Very well done!!!!Worldbuilder said:
