Batman's Next Onscreen Villain
Heath Ledger gave Batman fans what they wanted...a truly evil Joker! Since the release ofThe Dark Knight, fans have been eager to see what Batman villain will be next on Christopher Nolan's list. To this point we have seen in his films, The Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul, The Joker and Two-Face. I would like to see a truly frightening film with The Scarecrow. I felt that character had great potential. One thing for certain, though, is that Nolan will have a difficult time following up The Dark Knight with another stellar movie. The rumor mill has it that the villain will be The Riddler and that the 'evil questioner' will be portrayed by Johnny Depp. No facts have yet to be established.

I'd wanna see Bane and the whole broken back thing play out.
ReplyDeleteActually, Christopher Nolan has confirmed that it will Not be the Riddler. As for Killer Croc, he's already in the Nolanverse, technically, as one of the villains in the animated "Gotham Knight", which takes place between BB and DK. The latest (and greatest) rumor I've heard is it will be Doctor Hugo Strange, but that's really not who I'd like to see.
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for Bane and Talia al Ghul, the one villain team left that both fits into the Nolanverse perfectly and has the potential to utterly destroy Batman.
Great comment Stephen. Thanks for contributing. It seems you and Dave both want to see Bane. Batman has some pain coming his way!!
ReplyDeleteEven Though Nolan Has Stated Riddler Wont Be The Next Villian, I Still Would Of Like To See Him Portrayed In The Nolan-verse, I Had Heard Rumors Of Riddler As A Cyber Terrorist Which Really Intrigued Me, That Would Of Been A Sure Hit For My Man Edward. But I Would Like To See Bane, He Deserves A Second Chance. Maybe Have Him In The Employ Of Rupert Thorn In The Next Movie.
ReplyDeletealthough she couldn't be main villian i'd still like to see catwoman in a nolan batman movie.the character deserves a new face since the halley berry catwoman movie that didn't even follow any kind of cannon.plus we've covered bruice wayne's love interest in the last two movies its time for batman to deal with the love interest. catwoman is just as important a supporting character as robin or batgirl even. that and selina seems to pop in and out of bruice's life as well as in batman's.
ReplyDeleteHad to vote for the Penguin as an homage to Burgess Meredith. I think I might be the only one here, but I really didn't care for Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker. I really wanted to see his interpretation of the character rather than his interpretation of Jack Nicholson's interpretation of the Joker. I'm not saying that Ledger wasn't a good actor, but simply that I was disappointed to see him appearing to simply do an impression of Nicholson. As for my vote on the Penguin, I think that character needs to be in another movie due to the fact that the Devito version was in my opinion not a very true to character portrayal. Wha, wha, wha...
ReplyDeleteWell Its Offical, Catwoman And Bane Will Be In The Dark Knight Rises! I Just Hope That Nolan Does Bane Justice. We Dont Need Another Batman And Robin Mess! Tom Hardy As Bane, I Would Of Pick Someone More Muscular,But I'll Give A Shot Like I Did With Ledger As Joker. Mr. Nolan Please Dont Disappoint Us!!!
ReplyDeleteI tend to agree with you Neo. It will be interesting to see how well he follows up after The Dark Knight. I'd also like to see Batman a little more settled and less reckless. I would have preferred Talia over Catwoman but I am open to see how this film develops.
ReplyDeleteTalia Would Of Been A Great Addition To The Story, But I Think Its Still A Little Too Earlry For Her Because They Haven't Done Robin Yet But Nevertheless She Would Of Made It Interesting, Expecially If Ra's Returned. Batman Begins Was A Great Movie But I Felt Ra's Deserved More Film Time Than He Got. But Catwoman Is One Of Batman Greatest Rogues Plus A Major Part Of Bruce's And Batman's Love Life. Plus I Like The Choice Of Anne Hathaway. I Have Faith In Nolan, Both Movies He's Done For Batman Have Really Changed The Game When It Comes To Superhero Movies, And Thats A Good Thing In My Book. I Cant Wait For It, And I Hoping They Have A Casting Call In Detroit When They Shoot, Cause I Would So Love To Be An Extra In A Batman Movie!!!
ReplyDeleteI've loved both films too and yes Ras need more screen time. I just always have that hollywood's gonna screw up the superhero movie fear. Nolan has done great though!
ReplyDeleteWell Hollywood Has Messed Up So Many Good Properties. I Have Had That Fear Since Batman Forever! But There Have Been Some Glimmers Of Hope Recently! Nolan Has The Dounting Task Of Ending The Trilogy On A Good Note, And That Can Be A Real Hard Thing To Do, He Got Past The Sequel Curse Now Its Time For Three In A Row. Im Just Thankful He Decided To Do The Third And Not Have Someone Else Ruin It, Kinda Like When Burton Handed Batman Over To Schumacher. Such A Sad Day That Was!!!
ReplyDeletei chose the riddler i know hes not in the next one but i just would like to see another riddler batman and have johnny depp do the part it would be amazing another great performence to go after the joker but i still cant wait to see who gets on batmans nerves in the caped crusader
