Robin’s Big Date
This is a short film from 2005 that finally proves the theory everyone always knew to be true: Batman is a cockblocker. And kinda pervy too.
The video is a short film starring Sam Rockwell (Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind) as Bat-Man and Justin Long (Live Free or Die Hard, Accepted) as the Boy Wonder. It centers around Robin meeting a female friend who he is interested in dating, but as he is waiting for her to show up at the restaurant Bat-man shows up and starts harassing poor Robin and hitting on his date.
Sam Rockwell absolutely steals the show as the lecherous, creepy, and kind of pathetic take on the Dark Knight character, but Justin Long has his moments as well like drinking milk while everyone else has alcohol, or the awkward tug of his uniform trying to cover up his green man-panties.

awww. poor robin! although I find this comical (batman is such a perfect a-hole!), I must mention that I tend to think of robin as playing for the other team. I mean, come on, he wears green tight short shorts. he really ought to just move over to the bar next door with the big rainbow flag and I’m sure he could score… even if he says that’s NOT his motive!!
