YES, oddly my biggest complaint of the film is that Chicago WAS a character in the first 2 films and when it becomes an analogue for NYC and is no longer shot in Chicago, you NOTICE. I missed real Gotham an awful lot :(
But the rest = agreed.
The Robin story played with my Chloiser brain. It's like YESSSS Nolan gets that it's not about a name as much as WHAT the character does and the reveal was so good that I went back to watch the film the next day to go "Yes, he IS so Robin, how did I not see it!"
Also, the MoS trailer was good but only 1 minute, I want to hope they FINALLY got it right, so much and wash the SR AND SV taste from my mouth! I'm so jazzed for Amy Adams and hope she's a lot like chloe!
You know, I didn't see the Blake = Robin at all but then about half-way through the movie Mr. Latetothpartyhp leaned over and whispered, "So this is the guy who's gonna be Robin without being 'Robin', right?" and I thought "D'oh!" After that the "you should use your full name" joke at the end felt a little cheesy but I suppose someone involved just couldn't resist

I did at first when he came to see Bruce Wayne and talked about being an orphan but he didn't mention the right back story of having been in the circus or whatever and wasn't a Tim Drake, Jason Todd, or Dick Grayson, so I was like "Guess I'm wrong." Then they reveal his real first name is Robin and I was like ha-ha, see what you did there, but about the time he was trying to save the bus of kids I was like "He'd make a great sidekick!"
I think it's very much a it's NOT the name, it's the BEHAVIOR and that's what I've always maintained, and that's always been what Chlois really truly is. I still think the no-Clois and less iconic 70 years can play into Chloe/CHlois getting hooked up with Clark :)
I think Nois and Clark the douche in a trench coat are both ironic versions, they have to be.
