The Dark Knight kicked ass. That's an undeniable FACT.:P

So, what villain combo do you vote for the 3rd movie in the series?

I personally want a Riddler/Penguin Combo.

Riddler is a compulsive narcassist who leaves clues in his crimes to take credit for them, so the realistic gritty (which is what these new films go for) version of this compulsion could be very interesting. And the Penguin is aristocratic (in the comics atleast), which could make the Bruce Wayne side of Batman more prominent and important to the story arc.

What do you guys think?

I'm not sure if I'll even come close to being as impressed by a villain for as long as I watch movies. Not sure if, because of that, I could even venture an answer. If I had to answer?... whew... Riddler?

Mr. Freeze's story would follow the dark flow of the movies well. Though I admit with how much they've been tryingto stick to scientifically possible side of things, it would be hard to explain a gun that freezes things.

Riddler I like but he's kinda silly and doesn't follow the dark flow well. I guess penguin is the closest I could think of to a fitting next villian. By the way, not only is catwoman lame but she also hardly qualifies as a villian.

Don't be fooled by Jim Carey. Riddler is actually not that silly at all. As I said, he is a compulsive narrcisist. A real-life comparison of him would be a serial killer that puts clues in his kills tracing them back to him.

The great thing about Heath's Joker is that he's not actually clown-like, he's more of a psychopath. So if Riddler was just done for realistically, it could work.

Oh, I'm not fool'd by him at all, I know his story. Same way I know what Mr. Freeze is after the abomidation that was Arnold Schwarzenegger made of him. Though riddler's story never is too consistent.

Way too many threads of this already....

But I would have to say Mr. Freeze. :P That would be the most epic of Batman villains knowing his unusual freaky condition and his desperation to do whatever it takes. No doubt, that would make for a great story. And while Riddler would be an obvious road to take, it would feel almost like Joker again.

no angelina just expressed that she would really like to play catwoman, which would be an absolute piece of garbage.

in regards to the question i would like the riddler to be in the next movie as long as he isn't played too similarly to the joker. mr. freeze and poison ivy would also be fun.

Bane would be awesome if he was done right.

His proper origin is a very compelling story, and if the film focused more on Banes dark and horrific past, it could be a very philisophical film and would be awesome.

From Wikipedia:

"

The origin of Bane has similarities with another fictional character, Alexandre Dumas' Edmond Dantès. Born to serve the life sentence of his father, Bane's childhood and early adult life are spent behind the walls of Peña Duro, an infamous prison located in Santa Prisca. Though imprisoned, his natural abilities allow him to develop extraordinary skills within the prison's walls. He reads as many books as he can get his hands on, builds up his body in the prison's gym, and learns to fight in the merciless school of prison life. Despite his circumstances, he appears to have found teachers of various sorts during his incarceration, ranging from hardened convicts to an elderly Jesuit priest, under whose tutelage he apparently receives a ****cal education. Bane murders this priest upon his return to Santa Prisca years later. However, he commits his first murder at the age of eight, stabbing a criminal who wanted to use him to gain information about the prison.

During his years in prison, Bane carries a teddy bear he calls Osito (Spanish for "little bear"), whom he considers his only friend. It is revealed that Osito has a hole in his back to hold a knife that Bane uses against anyone who bullies him.

Bane ultimately establishes himself as the "king" of Peña Duro prison. The prison's controllers take note and, eventually, force him to become a test subject for a mysterious drug known as Venom, which had killed all other subjects. It nearly kills him at first, but he survives and finds its effects enhance his physical strength, although he needs to take it every 12 hours (via a system of cables pumped directly into his brain) or he would suffer debilitating side-effects."

It would be good if he had a more personal connection to Batman, like Batman's father and Bane;s father having a connection somehow.

It should be called "Knightfall"

I was kinda hoping that 2-face would be the next villian. He would have fit perfectly...

The next villian should be Penguin. Who else is gonna run for mayor?

Obviously the Riddler. he can begin by being a sort of Detective hunting Batman and then corrupt himself to the point that he doesn't care if people live or die, as long as he catches Batman (sort of Miev from Warcraft III).

Superman. They need to make The Dark Knight Returns graphic novel into a movie. And what wouldn't here be to like. A much older Batman vs. Superman.

I think it is Catwoman.

[spoiler] When Batman is getting his new lightwhight suit, Lucius fox said that the suit probably wouldn't protect him from a dog, but maybe a cat. It may just be a reference to her. [/spoiler]

Maybe they could make Robin the villian, starting the story off with Robin trying to imitate Batman's heroics and just ends up blowing it causing Robin to rebel against good all together and ends up hating Batman cause he'll never be Batman. Carnage ensues and ..........

maybe, cause I would still love to see Robin killed off for retribution due to those awful performances of Chris Odonnell. I hate that guy.

I agree, Scarecrow was my favorite Batman villain. But he just can't come back...[spoiler] They completely turn him into nothing more than a common thug in TDK and send him to jail, you see him on the boat that the Joker has a bomb on. Worst mistake they could have done with that character in my opinion. [/spoiler]
