Look, as a Robin fan, I’ve got to make my peace with the short shorts and the pixie boots. There’s just no other way around it. I hate them with a passion, and I hate that society as a whole has so maligned Robin because of them. So yeah, it bugs me that they’re the first go-to joke in the full trailer for The LEGO Batman Movie.

But other than that, I don’t think Robin’s portrayal is all that bad! And Michael Cera does a pretty great voice! I’ve just got to keep faith in the franchise. The LEGO Movie is one of the greatest movies I’ve ever seen, with a completely unexpected depth. If this movie can pull off that same trick with Batman and Robin, then wholly heck! That would be amazing.

Plus, it doesn’t look like we’re going to get Robin in the DC Cinematic Universe, so I suppose I should take what I can get.
