    He shouldn't go all moody and angst ridden until his parents are knocked off, but i bet he will be in this cat turd.

      Tonite on ..."May Parker"...
      May's nephew, Li'l Peter Parker at the eye doctor getting his first pair of glasses.
      Should Aunt May use the eye insurance or just pay for them cash?

      THAT would be exciting TV!

            >He spent his whole life training to become Robin. How can they not show that?

            I think you guys mentioning "Smallville" have hit it: they want ANOTHER Smallville, but since Batman is too dark and gritty they'll go with the next best thing. It'd be tough writing Bruce dealing with typical adolescent problems.

            >We watched 8 seasons of that drool before he "put on the costume."

            "Unbreakable" really did a number on the ol' superhero. Now people want all the powers without the tights. Which is sad, 'cos the iconic longjohns are a big part of what separates superheroes from everything else.

              The initial idea for Smallville WAS the adventures of young Bruce Wayne, traveling around, learning the skills he'd need to be Batman. WB was trying to get the Batman franchise revived, so the suits nixed the use of Bruce/Batman, and let the producers have Clark/Superman. Good thing too, because much of Batman Begins was about just that.

              And Smallville is forbidden to use young Bruce due to the movies, so chances are, you won't be seeing Bruce on the Graysons if it ever makes it to the screen either.

                  just break out your dvd's of The Flash. I never got into smallville and I am not even a superboy in the Jammies fan ( i actually like the Byrne reboot CLark kent). I watched it occasionally but eh. I am shocked it;s been on this long.

                    Maybe the biggest disappointment is that DC really thinks that they only have a couple of characters. Superman and Batman. The others are pretty much "...and the rest..." like from Gilligan's Island.

                        It frightens me that this was considered yet a series revolving around Oliver Queen, the guy who boosts smallville ratings, wasn't.

                            Green Arrow would be all right. I thought they were considering a Justice League type series with the group of heroes from Smallville as well....doesnt look like that will happen either, yet both ideas would do far better than Dick Grayson or even Smallville is these days.

                              His family was gonna be a famous juggling act? So they would've been killed by an exploding bowling pin or something? Maybe that chainsaw juggling bit got out of control? Flaming knives tossed inappropriately and OOPS? Now we may never get to see it. Shucks.
