There was never a Robin called Robin!!

Dear Christopher Nolan
Please don't get me wrong, son
I love the Shit out of
The Prestige
Momento
And Inception
I think you're an awesome director
And a pretty decent sorry teller
But to be honest with you
I have some problems
With your portrayal
Of Gotham's dark protector

You see
I remember first hearing the announcement
Back then shit was way more stagnant
We'd already had some movies about some mutants
But there was hardly a geek chic movement

And my heart had been broken
Many years earlier
By a usually competent director
Fuck bat nipples
Fuck Barbra Wilson
Batman and Robin
And Batman forever

This time we're getting
Scarecrow
Ra's Al Gul
And that dude from American psycho
And it'll be too early for Robin
But I'm sure that he's coming
Maybe even as Nightwing
And that's cool yo

And I've heard it's gonna be
Loosely based on year one
Which is wicked because
I'm a massive fan of Lieutenant Gordon
Gonna watch him rock up into Gotham
Take down all the police corruption
Watch him expose Lobe
Then watch as they promote
Is ass to captain

And trust me I'm bare excite
About that ever faithful night
The Mark of Zorro
On Park Row
And the birth of the dark knight

So now I'm about 10 minutes in
To Batman Begins
And the tone is all but win
And I'm starting to think
Why am I watching
Liam Neeson
Taking my second favourite villain
Removing all the feeling
That comes with him
But I guess that's just my opinion
And his league of shadows
Were cool
But massively under used though
But at least we get a re do
In season 2 of Arrow

So what we’ve got now is
A bunch of incoherent fight scenes
And a vengeance that means nothing
And a movie so full of plot holes
It's SO far removed from enticing

Flashbacks within flashbacks
And does this piece of shit car come in black
And that voice!  
I don't know why he's gotta sound like that

And now we've got a bat who's afraid of his namesake
Who let King Joffrey just walk away
And a Gotham City
That's supposed to be all realistic and gritty
But the shitty reality
Is that it's just well ugly

And it's not just the acting
And directing that's lacking
It's the fact that your Batman is boring

And I just thing for such a cool character
You've made a well dull story

But I did watch all three movies
Some of them had their positive moments
Heath Ledger absolutely killed it as The Joker
As did Michale Cain as Alfred
Cillian Murphy was an excellent scarecrow

And Ann Hathaway is probably my favourite live action
rendition of Catwoman

But I get that it's an adaptation
And hardly made for my attention
I'm one of those old school Bat nerds
Who's far more into the comics and various animations

I just think They missed the point a little bit, is all

Oh yeah
Fuck Bane!
And his fucking Zippy sounding voice. And Fuck that moment in the last one when Catwoman and Batman are chatting. And then she fucks off and Batman continues talking in that dumb ass voice, even though he's the only one there.

Makes me so fucking frustrated
