The Dark Knight Rises: What's the deal with Robin?

WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS FOR "THE DARK KNIGHT RISES" AHEAD


 Anyways, the topic of this sparkled many rumours, made many nerds (or non-nerds) bash their heads in, scratch'em, film YouTube discussions, blog, etc. The moment at the end, when officer John Blake revealed his real name - Robin, and inherited the Batcave.

A lot of people were automatically like "THERES GONNA BE ANOTHER MUVEE WITH ROBINHH!!!!11", but is that even possible, since it interchanges a bit with the plans of... well, everibody. Christian Bale said that he would return for a fourth movie, if Nolan approached him with a script and if there was no Robin in it. Chris Nolan announced that this will be the last Batman movie he will make and that it will end as a trilogy. That is understandable, since Nolan just isn't that typical Hollywood director that would just push for sequels to make money, since he wasn't even sure about filming a third one. And there are also the Warner Bros., which  announced that they will be rebooting Batman in a lighter form in 2015 (complete bullshit, if you ask me), so they can make a Justice League movie and make even more money, since they only produce about 3 blockbusters per month, so that's clearly not enough.

So what does this Robin thing mean? Is it just a so-called Easter Egg for fans or a hint for an another movie? Many people proclaimed that it doesn't mean he is Robin, since Robin's name wasn't really Robin. But another explanation could be, that they just said Robin, so everibody would understand the hint, since they said Robin, even my mom and sister understood the thing. I've done a little research and read many interesting theories, including one saying that actually was Robin from Nolan's wiew and it was just a nod to the character or that he will simply become - Batman. That makes sense, since the last shot in the film is Robin Blake rising upwards on a platform, surrounded by bats and then we see the title: "The Dark Knight Rises". But the possibilities are immense, so I have found two scenarios, which I call WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN and WHAT I THINK WILL REALLY HAPPEN.

WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN:

To be honest, I think we all agree on what we want to see. We want another movie, we want to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt become Robin the Nolan's way in another dark superhero epic. Just imagine for an example, Michael Fassbender as The Riddler or Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin in a Nolan Batman movie, inspired by the Arkham City videogame. There are simply so many awesome ideas that would fit and would make another great film in the 'Nolanverse'. But on the other side we also feel like this should be the end of Nolan's Batman. The story has nicely concluded, why not let it be a trilogy and potentially ruin with sequels? I'm sure a possible Robin sequel woudn't be bad and woudn't exactly ruin the franchise, but it simply feels so much more noble and right to leave the Nolan's Batman trilogy an excellent trilogy.

WHAT I THINK WILL REALLY HAPPEN:

This was just a way to make people smile and sadly, there will be no Robin whatever movies, just the shitty (or maybe not, but I will automatically ignore and despise it) reboot in 2015. Maybe Robin John Blake will become Robin or Batman or whatever, but maybe that's simply what will happen to the character in his fictional universe, there just won't be any movie depicting it. What is slightly suspicious about this, is the way they covered it up. Just like Miranda Tate, we didn't know anything about John Blake except that he is an idealistic cop. So why would they hide him? In the end, whatever is going to happen, I think the Robin thing was great. Nolan really knows how to play with people's minds as he does in most movies. The Batman trilogy might be an exception, but he does play with our minds before and after the movies. Who will be the villain? Will Batman die? Will Bruce Wayne die, but not Batman? Is Catwoman the villain or the romantic interest? And even tough Nolan said this would be his last Batman film, he also said there won't be any Robins in his movies. So really, what the fuck will make out of this?

What do you think's going to happen? Was it just a joke, something bigger? Do you want to see another Nolan-Robin movie? Comment below, let me know!
