This isn't Captain America, where you can tell the story without Bucky. This is Batman, as in..."Batman and Robin". The PROBLEM is that quite often Robin has been portrayed as this kiddie figure, but he is QUITE an interesting character and contrast to Batman. One of my favorite Batman series of books is where Robin is killed. What great writing! Bruce's humanity comes to the surface and you have this incredibly vulnerable humanity play with all the anger and sadness coming out. I think Bale is way off. Nobody wanted to see another BATMAN movie yet he proved everybody wrong by acting well. I think there should totally be a movie with Robin.
Now, if they try the PENGUIN...THEN I'm with him -- chain me up. Daryle On Tue, 08 Jul 2008 09:48:03 -0400, B. Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree with Bale.
