And something else... You're right that eye mask is a little big. Also the codpiece. Schumacher made him look like Chris O'DONGell mirite? I'm shocked the codpiece didn't get name checked in the opening credits.

Looks good; though to be honest, even the Robin costume in Batman Forever was pretty good sans the nipples. And something else... That suit looks really unconfortable to wear

I liked Robin in Batman Forever. I thought Chris O'Donnell did a good job playing the character. I love the story he tells Alfred about saving his brother during a circus show, and the scene in the garage/car museum.

O'donnell did a good job, he was just way too old for the ward thing.
It's like when Commissioner Gordon was asking what Dick's gonna do now, it's like: "I dunno, get a job? Do something else with the circus? He's f***in 25."

Had a 15 year-old Robin saved Batman from being buried alive that moment would've been epic.

Yep. Even with some tweaking to the script it probably could've worked as well--say they'd had the 'partners' conversation from and Robin and made it more of a protege relationship from the get go.
Like it's not a major thing, and you can just shrug and let it go, but there's bits of dialogue and plot points that are funny when Robin is old enough to vote, buy a beer, rent a car, open a 401k etc.

Not much to contribute other than I’ve always seen Robin and Cody Rhodes as doppelgängers. Watch closely. Cody Rhodes just seems like a Robin to me.

Honestly I'd probably be a lot more interested in the show if it was Tim. Dick's awesome and all but I get tired of him being the only one ever used in anything... and for that matter also get tired of Tim pretty much being shoved in the corner 90% of the time these days. I agree with all of this. My first Robin was Jason Todd, and I thought he was an annoying little turd even at age 5. I remember when Tim came around in A Lonely Place of Dying, and he became my dude. Loved the character from day one, and he's easily the best Robin. Dick Grayson has always been Nightwing to me (born in '84).
