THEIR TASTE IN MOVIES.

characters written about in this piece : bruce wayne, dick grayson, jason todd, tim drake, damian wayne, barbara gordon, duke thomas, stephanie brown, cassandra cain

note : i lit thought of this last night and wrote it within 12 hours is this my comeback

BRUCE WAYNE

you guys are gonna hateee meee 💀💀💀💀 but i think bruce wayne is an avid documentary watcher. he likes living in real life, likes knowing everything he is experiencing is real. and he likes being in the know of the topics circulating the planet he's living on. he's not a reality tv person though (although he may have a super super guilty pleasure of love island uk that tim and barb found out and he literally threatened them to keep to themselves, but they use as blackmail anyway).

movies i think he would like :

fyre: the greatest party that never happened, 2019. directed by chris smith

how to catch a serial killer, 2018. directed by john holdsworth

athlete a, 2020. directed by bonni cohen & jon shenk

the hatchet wielding hitchhiker, 2023. directed by colette camden

DICK GRAYSON

the total opposite of bruce, i can see dick watching more idyllic things, and just feel good ! he might like a nice biopic, but is really picky (pun unintended) about them. he also enjoys musicals !! but musicals that focus on realism and story instead of theatricals, like i think he'd pass on moulin rouge, just because there's so much going on at one time. also likes media he consumed from when he was younger, he likes the fuzziness of nostalgia.

movies i think he would like :

the greatest showman, 2017. directed by michael gracey

a knight's tale, 2001. directed by brian helgeland

the truman show, 1998. directed by peter weir

bohemian rhapsody, 2018. directed by bryan singer

JASON TODD

jason loves an action movie. he so wouldn't tell anybody, but if he likes a move he's seen in a film, he'll try it on patrol, taking out one of penguin's henchmen, or even when just training in the bat cave. but he loves films where a lot's going on and the choreography is really impressive !! he really admires fight choreographers for being able to make them look realistic, and likes to laugh at the ones that are shite.

movies i think he would like :

bullet train, 2022. directed by david leitch

scarface, 1983. directed by brian de palma

kingsman: the secret service, 2014. directed by matthew vaughn

john wick, 2014. directed by chad stahelski (and all the sequels)

TIM DRAKE

this guy prefers to watch alone, meaning he can experience sadder watched exactly how they're meant to be watched; in tears. he probably struggles to be emotional, so also watching films like these is an outlet for him. i love how with all of these their films are like a guilty pleasure thing they wouldn't tell anyone. i think people's choice in film is very telling though, so...

la la land, 2016. directed by damien chazelle

manchester by the sea, 2016. directed by kenneth lonergan

aftersun, 2022. directed by charlotte wells

dead poets society, 1989. directed by peter weir

DAMIAN WAYNE

we all know damian wayne is an... interesting species. i feel like even though he knows it is an unlikely scenario, he has figures out everything he would do in a zombie apocalypse, but hasn't told anybody, and would actively make fun of someone who has done the same. like he knows what weapons he'd need, where he'd go, how he'd make an antidote. what i'm trying to say is he likes zombie movies, and horror movies. it feels like he's testing himself, on his ability to be scared or prepared in these or future scenarios. even tho he doesn't actually get that scared. also doesn't mind foreign films, he thinks they're better at telling a story.

movies i think he would like :

train to busan, 2016. directed by yeon sangho

split, 2016. directed by m night shyamalan

hereditary, 2018. directed by ari aster

long legs, 2024. directed by osgood perkins

BARBARA GORDON

i can see barbara enjoying older films, like she likes films that show what life used to be like, and why it may have been better then, and why it may be better now. she's a very philosophical person, always thinking about shit like that. might be a black and white fan, but i'm talking technicolour classics ! she likes a good romance as well, but not ones she cries too, ones that are more feel-good and make her crave the love from that movie.

movies i think she would like :

how to lose a guy in 10 days, 2003. directed by donald petrie

west side story, 1961. directed by jerome robbins & robert wise

funny face, 1957. directed by stanley donen

notting hill, 1999. directed by roger michell

STEPHANIE BROWN

this girl will watch ANYTHING like she has such a wide taste. i said that with her music taste too, like i think she could find a way to enjoy anything. she doesn't like film bro films too much, thinks they're poo and they stink and if you're a guy and you like them you stink too and "get no bitches", but obviously that's up to opinion. obviously. although she will watch anything, i think she has a preference for comedies, and that can come in any shape and form!

movies i think she would like :

scooby doo, 2002. directed by raja gosnell

scary movie, 2000. directed by keenan ivory wayans

white chicks, 2004. directed by keenan ivory wayans

mean girls, 2004. directed by mark waters

DUKE THOMAS

duke likes epic films, like if we ignore for a sec that we're in the dc universe, he would love the batman films, especially the nolan trilogy. but he also would actually be a huge marvel fan, i can totally see it. so he likes superhero films, and he's def a fan of comedy, so if it's mixed into one genre, that's a winner for him. he likes movie nights with the family, so sitting down and getting snacks. probably loves the cinema too, so goes to see the new releases every month. isn't too picky.

movies i think he would like :

deadpool & wolverine, 2024. directed by shawn levy

kick-ass, 2010. directed by matthew vaughn

the harder they fall, 2021. directed by jeymes samuel

top gun: maverick, 2022. directed by joseph kosinski

CASSANDRA CAIN

cassandra watches MASTERPIECES. she definitely has a letterboxd account and writes wayyy too much than she needs to about a film, no matter if she loved it, hated it, or was in the middle about it. she adores foreign films, and loves films with a message. she'll watch and enjoy a film with no plot, but can get tired of them. she likes a packed plot that keeps her focused.

mustang, 2015. directed by deniz gamze ergüven

oslo, august 31st, 2011. directed by joachim trier

eat drink man woman, 1994. directed by ang lee

devdas, 2002. directed by sanjay leela bhansali

[mikeluciraphgabe]

Duke wanting to help out at night but not the actual fighting because he has finals thankyouverymuch but he instead starts an app

You login and and request a “walk home” with your location

Obvi he can’t be everywhere so there’s a reason part you fill out and he goes to most needed areas

It helps many people feel even safer

(It also helps the bats find criminals)

[himejoshiangels]

duke thomas/the signal headcanons

it's so important to me that duke is a parkour fanantic, in his intro he's flipping all over the kids who decided to pick a fight w him. the guy loves running across gotham seeing what jumps he can make and he watches competitive tag competitions and is like "pftt I could do that"

it's already pretty headcanoned that bcs Duke has the dayshift gothamites are more aware of him. I think after they get over the initial shock and he starts saving more people they fully accept him. Like you'll see the Signal helping a kid out with his homework in the park or stopping muggings on the street so it gets to the point where he's gotham's like little star. After his patrol Signal has to bring home several tupperwares of food from the elderly or shiny rocks and trinkets from kids who stopped him in the street

hes so careful when he brings stuff back bcs he loves the gifts civilians give him and he keeps all the stuff he's given in his closet. Tim jokingly points out that accepting gifts is an easy way to get a bomb in the house but duke shrugs and says he's willing to take that risk

him and Cass coordinate matching outfits for when they go out or make public appearances as rich ppl and it takes hours bcs he's so particular about colors and shape while cass is mainly worried about looking cool :))

mainly listens to metal music ofc but he also listens to a fair amount of punk, rap, and old hip hop

duke is a fast learner, he'll pick up anything like that, he's good and intaking and retaining information and skills so he just needs to see a move twice before he's already perfected it

wears his heart on his sleeve. this one's a favorite of mine, I think once duke is comfortable around anyone it's pretty much impossible for him to hold his tongue or hide his emotions. like when he feels he feels so big!! when he's sad or upset its so apparent and when he's happy he literally and figuratively glows. he cares so deeply so once he's used to someone there's no holding back with his hugs (which are incredible) or I love yous

kind of spiteful and mean when he wants to be, playfully so to people he cares about, but he's judgy and petty indiscriminately

[boiledbirdy]

Duke Thomas Headcannons

⭐️He is either insanely talkative quoting memes sarcasm dripping out of his ass or completely silent

⭐️Duke is the type of person and leader that doesn’t need words to have an impact on people, but does use words primarily

⭐️He’s a people watcher, the type of guy to order one blue berry scone and a vanilla cream coffee and sit there for hours, barley noticeable scone half eaten and sits in seeming focus while watching the ins and outs of the coffee shop

⭐️Is the type of person to have everything but the one specific common thing EX Duke has a mini magnet chessboard, tissues, hair ties, flashcards, a few extra snacks for his friends, pens every color of the rainbow (except for black) like hoW?

⭐️Has doctor hand writing (very ineligible)

⭐️Relating to the one above takes most of his school notes in doodles that just make sense to him

⭐️Is the kid who can do really cool pen tricks when no one notices, if you ask him to do it consciously he cannot

⭐️Detective wise he cannot use the professional terminology that Bruce has tried drilling into him for hours upon hour, case notes are various ways of typing thing or thingy that Duke has to translate before entering into the database cause his brain just can’t compute

⭐️Low-budget Sci-Fi movies are his shit, its on a sketchy ass website or youtube 50/50 on whether you can recognize the costumes from JC Penny

⭐️He is as scared of villains as he is of his own powers

Sticks his tongue into his cheek when he’s thinks really hard

⭐️Authority figures have failed him to many times that he just does not trust them.

⭐️after yr 1 with the Waynes he knows that they aren’t family in his eyes but more the closest friends which makes him scared of what happens when his parents get back conscious. - will he ever be the stereotypical family that’s been driving him for all these years. - will he actually be a child or just be a caretaker to his own parents????

⭐️Love and Family aren’t words he likes much but trusts more through actions

⭐️I think he may have 3c or 4a hair???

⭐️Knows seemingly everyone in Gotham??? Like oh thats Richard he’s a plumber yeah he has two little girls and he’s a single dad (gives a whole flashback for this middle aged man)

⭐️His room decor is really obscure band and movie posters and the live laugh love like signs that he found in hobby lobby, thrift shops, or tjmax

⭐️In spars and in real combat will bite people if he needs to or feels trapped

⭐️that being said Duke motherfuckin’ Thomas is feral like the type of feral where you get a shiver up your spine before he comes in a room

⭐️Chronically listens to Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chillipeppers, Joy Division, 2Pac, and Drake (theres more but thats short hand)

⭐️He has tumblr and has announced to the world through twitter that he sees all of the Wayne posts on there and supports those accounts especially the more bizarre ones

⭐️Favorite color is that deep deep lucid blue that seems to just be the paint of clear night sky (#030640) is the hex color code

⭐️he texts like a psychopath with the correct grammer everywhere but spell check is off and the short hand acronyms are constant

⭐️favorite soda is probably mtn dew which I disapprove but it’s the fact of my brain

[yeahimcal]

DUKE THOMAS BEST BOYFRIEND IN THE WORLD!!!

He smothers you with kisses and little goodies that he makes you, he’s the kind of guy to weld you a bouquet of flowers and act like it’s not the sweetest and most thoughtful gift in the entire world. He bakes you stuff. He holds you like you’re made of glass but he squishes your cheeks and peppers you with little kisses if he hasn’t seen you for a long time. He could stare at you for hours.

He’s such a words of affirmation guy. “I love you (you’re shoving cake in your face)” “you’re perfect (you’re yelling at some guy who catcalled you)” “you look so beautiful in this light (you’re in the grocery store frozen food isle)” “I wish I could stay by your side forever (you’re asleep next to him)”.

He absolutely adores you. He’ll tell you every chance he gets. And god forbid anyone mess with you, otherwise Signal shows up and scares them so bad that other muggers give you a WIDE berth. He’s scarier than Red Hood when you’re involved.

Just… ♡Duke Thomas♡…………

[fckbatmanhiskidsareminenow]

multilingual batkids. they learn each others languages so they can mix and match. for example:

tim in french: have you figured out how we’re gonna tell b we’re not going to that gala yet?

damian in arabic: no i thought that was thomas’ job?

duke french: me? no jason said he’d do something

jason in arabic: hey don’t drag me into this!

dick in romani: i’m gonna kill him i really i am

steph in russian: who are we killing?

dick in english: ah! nobody! wait i didn’t know you spoke romani

tim in greek: you’re an asshole

jason in english: wait my greek is rusty say it again slowly

tim in greek: you’re an asshole

jason: …. you motherfucker

cass signing: nice drawing

damian in chinese: thank you

dick yelling at bruce about something he did

jason in spanish: what language is he speaking right now?

tim also in spanish: uh all of them i think

jason: does bruce even know-

tim: no he doesn’t

[demonicsuffrage]

Headcanon that when the batkids are mad at Bruce or just, mildly annoyed, they deliberately use last names that piss Bruce off, a lot.

Kidnappers over the phone: We have Richard Wayne in our custody, if you want to see him again-

Dick, mad after Bruce made him throw out the discowing suit, in a muffled voice: It's actually Richard Grayson-Kent, get it right

Bruce, on the verge of a heart attack: Chum Please

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Barista at Batburger: What would you like your coffee cup to say?

Tim, not mad, just mildly annoyed at the way Bruce did the reports last night: My name is Tim Jordan-Gardener-Cruz-Scott

Bruce, clutching his Jokerized fries so hard veins appear: You're grounded

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Author, at a book signing event: And who should I address this to?

Jason, after Bruce had let the Joker live yet again: To Jason Dent, please

Bruce, standing in line next to him, whom Jason had brought along to pay for the signed copy: I should make Harvey pay child support

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Announcer: And the award goes to, Ms Cassandra Isley-Quinn!

Cass, mad because Bruce missed another one of her recitals, walking up to the stage:

Bruce:

Bruce, signing to her: You're killing me, you know that? You're killing your father

Harley, sitting next to Bruce along with Ivy: Yes! That's our daughter!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Duke, calling some shady Gotham lawyer right in front of Bruce after he lectured him a little too much about keeping up secret identities: Hi, how much to legally change my name to Duke Thomas-Queen?

Shady lawyer: About 50$

Duke: Got it. Hey Bruce can I borrow 50$?

Bruce:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Steph doesn't use the Wayne name anyway, but sometimes she uses it for Benefits™

Damian would much rather die than adopt the last name of anyone in the justice league or the batrouges or anyone except his very infamous lineages, because he doesn't want to associate with incompetent people

[incorrectbatfam]

Alfred gets sick of Bruce breaking and losing stuff on patrol so he gets a label maker and starts naming items after the kids

Alfred: I got you a new phone, just like you asked. Its name is Jason. Try not to let it die.

Bruce, tearing up: Why would you say that—

[gothamite-rambler]

Duke Thomas gets added to the payroll

Bruce Wayne (seeing Duke walk past his office): Duke.

Duke backwards walked to Bruce’s office.

Duke: Sup?

Bruce: Did you check your bank account? The direct deposit should’ve hit.

Duke: The what? Oh you were serious about that?

Bruce: Of course, you’re not only my son, but you do work for me and you deserve an income.

Duke: Thanks dude, but I can’t take your money I work at the library.

Bruce: Duke, trust me. You deserve this. I do it for all my kids… except Tim.

Duke: Why not Tim?

Bruce: Long story… he owns part of my company, plus he- he definitely embezzled a lot of my funds before I noticed so him working at my company is his paycheck.

Duke (alarmed): That was him?!

Bruce: Yeah, but that’s not important currently. You enjoy your first payhcheck and I’m proud of you.

Duke: Thanks man.

Duke left the office, checking his phone as he walked to his room. He nearly dropped his phone seeing the four digits in his bank account that had five dollars in it three days ago.

Duke (shocked, happy): Three- Three thousand dollars?! Woooooooo! I’m eating good tonight! No wait, game stop here I come!

Duke ran out the house passing by Stephanie and Jason.

Duke: I can finally buy a PlayStation!

Jason: Wait until he finds out it’s a monthly payment.

Stephanie: I’ll tell him later. Want to go tell Tim about it first?

Jason: 100% yes.

[adhara2034]

Headcanon that the batfam has a Samsung smart refrigerator or whatever it's called, and it is used entirely for doing work while in the kitchen. There has been justice league meetings held on that motherfucker and nuclear threats disengaged.

APOCALYPSE GAMES.

— pop goes the zombie!

summary : fenced off from the dead that roam the earth, you and duke try to make some fun out of the dreary situation you're in.

note : FIRST DUKE POST !!!!!!

surviving the apocalypse alongside duke and the other surivors you'd met had actually been quite fun, taking everything into consideration.

after months, you and your friend tim had found a group of others, all around your age. although they seemed gritty — dick, duke, jason and stephanie — they were no harm to you. the six of you teamed up, blood-pacting and pinkie-promising to not turn against each other.

you'd found your way to smallville, a farm town, and an abandoned farm along with it. with the use of supplies already in the barn, and supplies found elsewhere, you fenced up your territory, keeping out the living dead and raiders alike.

today, a bland day, you and duke were patrolling from the watch tower — a hut built on top of the barn — when something seemed to catch his eye.

"hey," he hummed, and you glanced up from your binoculars, pointing them out the open window, staring into the trees.

"what's up?"

duke was standing at the window behind, his rifle in his grip. he peered over at you, watching as you lowered the dual telescopes. "i bet you..." he glanced around the watch tower before his gaze landed on a wrapped candy bar on the table. "this chocolate bar you can't kill these two zombies with a single bullet."

as he swiped the bar from the table top, you migrated post to stare out his window, bringing the pair of binoculars back up to your eyes.

sure enough, lingering slowly in the trees, just far enough away from your territory to be confirmed a threat, two undeads wobbled on their scrambly thin legs.

with a chuckled scoff, you placed the binoculars on the window sill, bringing your rifle up to your chest. "next time make a difficult bet."

as you pulled the rifle up higher, your eye met the scope, the pulling green zombie skin magnified. your finger was about to press the trigger when—

"no scope."

eyebrows creased, you pulled the rifle down, and you turned to glare back at your partner. "excuse me?"

but it was difficult to keep looking at him like that; not when he offered his sickly sweet smile in return. "you heard me. no scope."

he's only saying that because he knows you'll win the bar if you scope them. one bullet. two zombies. you know this.

unable to resist his charm – his duke thomas charm – you tugged at the scope atop your firearm and removed it, pocketing it for when you get your hands on that chocolate bar. with one last playful glare his way, you had returned to your original stance, rifle up.

admittedly, it was more difficult from this distance to see the living dead in the dark of the trees. maybe you wouldn't be getting that chocolate bar. maybe you'd be stuck in this watchtower for another two hours, having to watch duke unwrap it and savour the sweet chocolate with each bite, and then, once he's finished it, you'll only be left with the memory of what chocolate you missed out on.

on your exhale, you pulled the trigger, and immediately duke shot forward to grab your binoculars.

in his silence, you still didn't breathe in, lungs aching for him to reveal whether or not you'd hit two in one.

and he laughed.

"looks like i'm getting that chocolate bar."

without giving him time to pass the dual scopes, you put down your gun and grabbed them from him. eyes squinting, you were, unfortunately, able to make out the two zombies, probably moaning and groaning, trying to figure out where the gunshot had come from.

"you dick," you scoffed, pulling away from the scene to furrow your eyebrows at him. "you don't deserve it unless you can do it."

if you hadn't been so close to him, you would have missed the flicker of uncertainty over his features; he really wanted this chocolate bar.

his eyes lingered on you for a moment, corner of his lips twitching, before he reached forward and took your scope-less rifle from the window sill. as he positioned himself, you reached for the binoculars, preparing yourself to witness a failure worse than yours.

then you could get the chocolate bar.

bang!

your jaw dropped, and duke immediately questioned it. no way. not a chance!

"you're a cheater..." you muttered under your breath.

now that you think about it, you easily could have lied to him, told him he'd missed and taken the chocolate bar; but you were much too much in shock.

two zombies with one bullet.

own jaw dropped, duke tore the binoculars from your weak grip, pressing the lenses to his eyes. "no way!" he gasped, involuntarily jumping for joy. "no fuckin' way!"

without wasting another second, duke was unwrapping the crackly packaging of the bar, laughing to himself under his breath. way to rub it in?

your starving gaze lingered on the way duke's perfect teeth chomped down into the chocolate. maybe next time. with an inward sigh, you turned back to the window, pulling your binoculars back up to your face. if you looked hard enough, maybe you'd find two more zombies to one-hit?

duke's chewing ceased after a few moments, and you noted the silence. it wasn't broken until you felt a tap on your shoulder.

when you turned, you found duke holding out the rest of the bar. he'd only taken one bite.

"what?" you hummed, looking between him and the bar, appetising as ever. but... "hey, no. you got two in one, you won it fair and square."

you weren't actually that mad; you swore you remember catching a glimpse of a few candy bars under tim's bed that morning. if you were peckish enough, you could just swipe one and face tim's wrath — not anything you weren't used to, however.

but duke shook his head, prodding the barely-eaten bar towards you. "i was just playing. take it. we both know you would've got it anyway, if i hadn't made you take off your scope."

allowing a few beats to pass between you, your eyes flickered between duke's seemingly genuine smile and the chocolate bar he held out to you. one bite wouldn't hurt... and so you swiped it from him, sending a grin his way.

just between you and me, this story isn't about a guy wanting a chocolate bar.

[thefriendlyneighborhoodace]

sometimes i think about how funny it would be if bruce had a slight english accent as a result of alfred being the only adult in his life for most of his formative years. that or he just says british slang instead of english.

this either drives his children insane, or they think it’s the most hilarious thing ever.

[galaxymagitech]

Most of the Batkids lie to Batman.

What’s unique about Tim “I lie to Batman” Drake is that he lies *successfully* to Batman.

Damian just states blatant untruths and expects people to believe them. Dick puts on a good act, but it can’t fool his family, even if they won’t call him out on it. Jason’s emotions are too easy to read, even with his helmet on. Cass lies with her words, but never with her body. Duke lacks self-awareness of his insanity and thus doesn’t try to hide any of it. Steph and Barbara don’t even bother, because Batman has no authority over her whatsoever.

Tim, though? He was raised by boarding schools and nannies and practically incentivized to lie to adults. He’s so earnest and well-meaning that everyone expects him to be a compulsive truth-teller, and he weaponizes it like the little gremlin he is. And when that isn’t enough, he knows how to spin things just right that they don’t quite sound like an untruth.

[jesterraconteuse]

You don't understand there's a part of me that wants Alfred Pennyworth to never age but there's another part that's like

As Alfred grows older his body grows tired and everyone notices. And for Bruce that's his surrogate father. For everyone else that's Grandpa. Immediately there's a secret boot camp in the Batcave for everyone to start learning how to better care for themselves. Selina Kyle assisting of course.

There's already disability accommodations for Barbara so they just need to tweak and add some stuff. They've learned from her needs and start researching on how to care for the elderly for Alfred specifically.

On paper he's still a butler but really everyone (who lives or stays for a long time in Wayne manor) makes sure they learn how to do the hardwork for themselves. Most of his job is just to be there for them honestly. They insist on doing things for themselves.

But Alfred is Alfred. So he knows what's going on. And he's so deeply proud of them. He doesn't let him do anything he insists he can or wants do himself. He's still his own person after all, and they gradually learn his boundaries and patterns.

Bruce keeps paying him but not in a way you'd pay a butler usually. More in a way where you'd send money to your retired parents.

Do you see my vision?

[violent138]

The idea of the Batkids doing normal people things while suited up is hilarious to me, you know, like Red Robin and Spoiler making the 9 o'clock news while racing through a grocery store because they totally forgot to get the things Alfred asked them to bring for the family dinner. Or Damian and Dick swinging into the Bludhaven Zoo mid-patrol because Dami really wanted to see the new baby tiger. Red Hood buying lemonade from a kid's stand and then standing there awkwardly messing with his helmet, trying not to hurt the kid's feelings. Black Bat, on a particularly tiring day randomly appeared in the nosebleeds of the ballet hall and started sniping phones out of people's hands. Or Signal and a deeply irritated Batman changing out a blown-out tyre in some back alley, earning amused looks.

[fckbatmanhiskidsareminenow]

do you think that bruce sometimes calls the bat kids by the wrong names? like

“dick can you pass me that file please?” and tim’s standing there with this 😑 look on his face.

“what?”

“you called me dick.”

“did i?”

or

“jason-tim-cass fuck titus!” he was trying to get damians attention who is looking at his father like he’s having a stroke.

or

“can you ask jason to come here please?”

“jason doesn’t live here b”

“what? oh no i meant duke.”
