With Apologies to the two people havn't seen the dark knight rises

Right off the Bat gonna be spoiling the end of the dark knight rises for the three people who havn't seen it. okay now that we have that out of the way let's talk about this

now ignoring the photo shopped picture of nightwing, and the fact that they've clearly confused the two lets talk about why this is a very bad idea. the thing about any character in christopher nolan's films is if the character was a major character they had a place in the comics. they may have been changed or adapted to fit into the real world but they had a place in the comics. The character of John blake was not he was a character created just for the movie.the whole robin thing at the end of the film was fan service and clear joke to all the fans who spent most of the production speculating he was robin. now in the history of the comics there have been 5 technically 6 robins none of which had the name john blake. In the history of batman there have only been two men who weren't bruce wayne to take up the cape and cowl Jean-Paul Valley and dick grayson the second robin


Now the reason ultimatly having that character be batman in the justice league film is a bad idea. okay i need you to think about this your finally getting a justice league movie and batman isn't even batman he's some random dude from one movie. to compare it would be like if in the avengers iron man wasn't tony stark  he was some random dude who manged to just guess at how to use the suit
now that being said if you want joseph gordon levit as batman have him be bruce wayne in the inevitable batman reboot. other wise batman fans are gonna feel ripped off
