User blog comment:Night Watch the revenger/WHY I DON'T LIKE THE DIRECTOR OF THE NEW BATMAN SERIES/@comment-1038387-20120625142816

A little research would have made this post a lot more useful.
 * Christopher Nolan. Not Noah.
 * Dick Grayson's parents were killed by Boss Zucco. He worked for the Sal Maroni.
 * Jason Todd's parents were (pre-Crisis) killed by Killer Croc.
 * Post-Crisis, he was an orphan before he met Bruce.
 * Tim Drake's mom, Janet Drake, was killed by Obeah Man. His father, Jack Drake, was alive for some time into his career as Robin, until he was eventually killed by Captain Boomerang (the elder) during Identity Crisis.
 * Two-Face was responsible for Robin's parents in two popular (and easily accessible) continuities:
 * In Batman Forever, he planted a bomb that the Flying Graysons heroically stopped, and tragically orphaned Dick at the age of 21.
 * In the DC Animated Universe,, he had Stephen "Shifty" Drake, Tim's father, killed. No word on the mother. This Tim Drake from The New Batman Adventures, has several elements from Jason Todd added. The mainstream Jack Drake was no criminal.
 * I tried peanut butter and jelly once. It was disgusting. Why do people keep saying it goes together?
 * Despite being five or so years into his career, Nolan's Batman still has the Year One feel.
 * It's extremely difficult to make a grown man in a batsuit look convincing in live action, how do you think a young boy in red, green and yellow is going to look? Also, they would have to cast an extremely athletic teenager, which reduces the chance that you'll find a good actor.
 * So: I don't miss a Robin. At all.
