Never Forget Who Was There For You During Your Lowest Moments (fanfiction).

In the DC universe there's a petition with over five hundred thousand signatures asking Batman to let Robin represent the USA on the male gymnastic team

I love the Reverse Robins au but everyone always forgets Steph, because if you go with the whole “second Robin dies thing” Steph as Red Hood would be sick as fuck. I’m begging someone to draw some Steph Hood.

Beauty is subjective... Unless you're Dick Grayson.

Literally the most acclaimed character in all of DC, the most noted for his beauty, and there's absolutely no one who doesn't consider his less than gorgeous... It's crazy.

And as a curious fact, he's also the character who has been most praised for his appearance, to the point that even villains have pointed it out...

And canonically he has no idea how attractive he is... Which is also impressive considering all the comments he gets-

klance in 2024??? 🤯🤯🤯💯💯💯

Y’all remember when Jason missed Dick so he dressed up as Nightwing and started killing people and then he ended up turning into an octopus?

I hate the “happy Robin” “angry Robin” thing because no Jason was not the happy Robin. Let’s set aside the fact that you can’t really reduce these characters to a singular emotion. Jason Todd was angry as Robin (please note this does not make him the angry Robin, because there is no angry Robin, bc let’s be so fr, they all had angry moments. ) Which makes sense because he was a kid who had to deal with way too much shit. Bruce took him in to help him grow and teach him but his life was tragically cut short.

People associate anger as bad but Jason wasn’t bad, he was a good kid who got dealt a bad hand. As if being 15 wasn’t hard enough he was out there every night facing such awful people, of course he lost his cool every now and then! Yes he believed Robin gave him magic, that doesn’t mean he can’t be angry???? Like these two things can exist at once. I feel like once you acknowledge that Jason wasn’t always cheerful and happy as Robin (and the opposite is true too, he wasn’t always angry and vengeful as Robin) that’s when you truly can appreciate his character. The fandom always either classifies him as the happy Robin or the angry Robin but like why can’t he be both? Why can’t he be happy AND angry? Can one only feel a singular emotion

A while ago, I decided to watch every single animated DC movie and rank and review them. I’ve watched about 20 of them so far and I have all my reviews sitting in my notes app.

Hi! I’m Quinn and I have a goal to watch and rank every single DC animated movie! I’ve watch over 20 so far but I just started posting my thoughts on Tumblr. Because I’ve watched so many, I decided to just post about the ones I’m currently watching! But, if you see a movie on my list that you want me to cover, just leave a comment or something or ask in my inbox!

Anywho:

In my quest to watch all the DC animated movies, my next watch was Batman Vs Robin!

Spoilers!!!!

I liked this movie a lot more than I thought I would. I wasn’t the biggest Damian Wayne fan coming into this movie but honestly? This movie gave me more appreciation for him. I was honestly shocked to find out most people felt differently. A lot of people on letterbox’d were saying their opinion on Damian didn’t shift much.

I think that Bruce’s attitude shift towards Damian lacked some build up, it was definitely there but I felt there could’ve been more. In the movie’s defense, it’s only 80 minutes and there’s a lot of plot to cover. This being said, I LOVED THEIR INTERACTIONS. Oh my gosh it was so cute. Like that’s literally his baby.

DC does better with the pacing in this movie than it does with others. The middle kinda straggles a bit but the last third of the movie is so good it’s honestly worth it.

I also want to take a moment to appreciate the fight scenes. God this movie had such epic fight scenes. Even the sparring match between Dick and Damian was peak. Watching Dick fight was especially fun because they really utilized his acrobatic skills!

A couple of other things I want to add, I did not like the soundtrack. A lot of the music felt out of place and almost like something you’d hear in a YouTube video.

There was one specific plot line that didn’t add up, Bruce had a girlfriend who ended up being part of the court of owls, and she was two timing Bruce with Talon. Long story short Talon killed her, we never got a reaction from Bruce because he never found out, but it did feel like the two of them dating did absolutely nothing for the plot. It didn’t add any emotional stake or any sense of betrayal because…he just never knew? Honestly she could’ve just not been a member of the court and the story would’ve more or less stayed the same. It felt like she was thrown in as a last minute plot twist.

This is real nitpicky of me, but I want to comment on Damian’s relationship with Talon. There were no hints that Talon was manipulating Damian other than Bruce outright saying “Damian, he’s manipulating you” which does the job but I think there could’ve been a few more subtle hints dropped.

This movie may not be the best technical wise or from a writing point of view, but it’s so fun I don’t even care. his movie is probably definitely in my top 5 so far!
