a-wayne-at-heart:

My dream Batman canon issue: ALL the four Batboys (Dick, Jason, Tim, Damian) and Cass coming out of their respective bedrooms at the Manor in their sleep civvies, woken by the scent of Alfred’s cooking; each getting to the kitchen in his/her own Extra way, playfully but competitively shoving each other out of the way; Tim breaking off from the chaos to open the door, high-fiving/fist-bumping Duke and Luke as they file in; Babs arriving two minutes later, on the phone with Steph, telling the latter to come ASAP (breakfast is almost served); Kate coming in much later, amused by the loud morning chatter, nodding at Bruce, who’s seated at a kitchen stool, patting Titus on the head while Alfred the cat purrs on his lap.

I dunno. Something incredibly MUNDANE like this when Tim comes back. We already had Batburger, and that was lovely. Just… It would be great if they were ALL there.

Selina coming in through a second story window; Basil catching up with Cass and Harper, telling them how Jean-Paul’s meditating on a mountain somewhere so he can’t make it, while Alfred mops up his clay trail. Maybe Clark and Lois (literally) flying in to drop Jon off for a sleepover with Damian.

Too much to ask?

Jake: Boyle, I need to throw away this piece of paper and I can’t move my body.

Boyle: On it, Jakey, it’s show time. Here we go. I love this. We’re like Batman and Alfred.

Rosa: You’d rather be Alfred than Robin?

Boyle: He has access to the Bat Cave and, plus, he gets to drive all Batman’s girlfriends home and dish.

Jake: Doy.

The thing about The LEGO Batman Movie (2017) is that it really is a satire of its comic book counterpart. It simplifies (and humorously so) a lot of deep canon concepts in the Batman universe that fans who intimately know the Batfamily can relate to and those who aren’t yet can appreciate nonetheless.

I mean, even this little scene right here? Robin being put on “time out” for disobeying Batman’s orders? And Dick being an enthusiastic Boy Wonder who’s grateful to Bruce for being a friend/father figure regardless of the drama that surrounds them? I think it playfully sums up much of their dynamic.

Robin [as Nightwing]: You noobs are so desperate to impress Batman. Why? He’s weak.

Blue Beetle: If your papa’s weak, what’s that make you?

Robin: *scoffs* I take after my mother.

Blue Beetle: I’ll teach this mocoso a lesson. Hope I never have a kid like you.

Robin: I was the perfect child. Batman just wasn’t fit to be my father.
