Batman: Robin Hood
built 649 days ago
As is typical with this series, the villains were the central focus of Batman Forever. Rising star Jim Carrey was cast as the Riddler -- a role once written for Robin Williams. Carrey was still best known for his appearences on In Living Color and his break-out movie Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Batman Forever was the first film to showcase his range as an actor who could do more than physical comedy. Naturally, Carrey chewed up the scenery and stole the show. His performance ... paid loving tribute to Frank Gorshin, the original Riddler from the 1960s TV show.

That's really Batman. So the real Batman's gay. On Christmas day in the early fifties, Batman was chasing The Joker through the streets of Gotham. It was reported that Batman had been up all night partying, and he hadn't had a chance to shower, so he smelled. Robin had, unfortunately, come down with a bad case of constipation, so he was unable to aid Batman on that night.
When Batman (West) and Robin (Ward) get a tip that Commodore Schmidlapp (the final role of actor Reginald Denny) is in danger aboard his yacht, they launch a rescue mission using the Batcopter. After a tangle with an exploding shark, Batman and Robin head back to Commissioner Gordon's office where, by case of deduction and wisdom, they figure out that the tip was a set-up by four of the most powerful villains ever (Joker, Penguin, Riddler and Catwoman), who unite to defeat the Dynamic Duo once and for all.

While primarily operating either alone or with Robin, Batman is at times a member of the Justice League of America or the Outsiders, though his status is often that of a part-time member. He even has a friendly rivalry with Mister Terrific.
The latest Robin to join Batman is Tim Drake, a young student who has greatly risen in the eyes of his teacher. Drake has since become a part of the Teen Titans.
