Seriously now I am oppopled. Isn't robbin not even that old enough too be driving and riding motocycles. This is to me is like killings fish that are in barrels. I thinks too even that many kids mifght think that it was even kool too do that cause of the robbin though. Don't even try to get my wrong though robbin is so a bad a**S COP hero guy and probably had too be prity tough to even be friends with batma but it's reali think of the kids on this one. I even has a uncle that is fifteen now and if he was ever hurt on the cycle I woukd be mad. Smart Upo B-MAn!!!
Part of the problem there was that Chris O'Donnell played Robin not as Dick Grayson but as a childish 23 yr old Jason Todd (the second, more rebellious, Robin). And even with that there were conradictions throughout the role. For example, why would this Robin need to be anyone's "ward"? Like you said, he'd riding motorcycles and he's clearly not a child.
Interesting fact: When Robin was first introduced in comics long ago, he was written as being 8 years old. I doubt a modern Robin could realistically fight crime at 8, but it just goes to symbolize the vast disloyatly and criminal carelessness with which Burton and Schumaker approached this franchise.

I dont think burton did aproach the franchise with carelessness and disloyalty, shumacher maybe, but not burton.

Burton may be likeable and bright.
But, he killed The Joker (literally) after making him the killer of Bruce's parents AND starting him off as some mob thug. He cast Billy Dee Williams as Harvey Dent only because he had no clue that Dent would become Two-Face (upon which the realization led to the dropping of Williams from the sequel). He turned Penguin into a miserable punchline who couldn't mastermind a game of tic-tac-toe. He put machine guns on the Batmobile and had Batman kill like 5 people. And, he gave Catwoman 9 ACTUAL lives. That's just for starters.
Sorry. But, when it comes to Batman, in light of all the evidence, I have a real problem with the "Burton Defensive Team".
