Personally I would love for both these actors to depict Riddler and Penguin, Depp in particular

would do great as Riddler. Although they shouldn't take the mindset of trying to top Heath or TDK, they

should only focus on telling another good Batman story.

I figure that all the performances in comic book movies are going to be compared to Heath Ledger's. If there's no attempt to top the other performances out there, then there's no reason to make the movie in the first place. Why do you think Uwe Boll became the director he is today? Nolan and company has to put something truly special into both the Riddler and the Penguin or else they're going to be useless characters.

I don't think they should use either or them. That is what the crowd wants and expects so instead throw a curve ball and give something completely different. No one expected Heath's turn as the Joker but it was great so go with a different character entirely.

I still say its a mistake to use the Riddler this soon after the Joker. But I think I know where Nolan's head is at in all this. I think he just wants to get this whole Batman thing behind him. After Heath Passed, it just was'nt the same any more.

 

 

 

Now maby I'm just over empathizing with the situation, but I think Nolan just wants to give WB there freakin movie so he can put the pain of not just Heath's death, but also that of his ultimate DARK KNIGHT movie trilogy to rest forever. Nolan knows no matter what he does or who plays what chacter......................things will never be the same for The Dark Knight.

 

 

 

At least not for a very very long time.

How do you know what Nolan is feeling?? I mean the death of Ledger was sad, but I can't imagine it having affected Nolan to the point of wanting to put the Dark Knight behind him. I mean, he got a chance to work out his feelings when he was cutting the film, as he has said, that being able to see how spectacular his performance was during the editing process helped him.

 

Also, why do you think the Riddler would be a mistake?? This is Nolan we're talking about here, he could portray the Riddler in a whole new light, more of the serious Riddler we saw in the Animated series, and less the comical buffonery we saw in the 60's show or the Carrey Riddler! I'm hoping a mix of humor and seriousness!! I mean take Freeze for example, he was a 3rd string villain until the BTAS portrayed a more melodramatic freeze, creating the backstory of his accident and death of his wife, which gave a more sympathetic look to the character. The fans loved it, and so DC followed suit and used that origin story as well!! I think we'll be surprised at how Nolan uses the Riddler!!

 

Now as long as the Penguin in no way or shape resembles that abomination that was the Tim Burton Penguin, I'll be happy!!

How do I know what Nollan is feeling? I don't. That's why the context of my original post is formatted in that of an opinion. & yes it is my oipnion that The Riddler should not be used so soon after the Joker. I know, silly me to use a public fourm to express my thought & opinions........i mean the nerve os some people LOL.

 

& 2nd, No matter how Nolan or the acter who plays Riddler spinns the whole thing, people are still gonna go in to these theators subconsicencely expecting "Joker style mayhem". I mean after all why do you think there doing the Riddler at all..............BECAUSE THEY WANT MORE JOKER.

ok my 2 cents. ledgers death was sad granted but im tired of seeing people drone on about it. he gave a good performance but even if he (ledger) didnt die who ever played the next villin would still have to top what came befor. Thats what makes movies sell or makes movies interesting. i havent made up my mind what villin would be best for the next movie, but if riddler is it then i agree he needs to be dark and evil not campy with bad riddles. carry was ok but could have been better. shumacker was to blame for that hot mess. but anyway my thought is bring in 3 badies.who would yall ike to see? riddler, penguin ,catwoman, man bat, killer croc, mr freezz,posin ivy,bane, would love to hear you list.also if not riddler now when? and who out there would be a good catwoman?

honestly the more i think about it i think riddler but has to be a dark crazy mad off the chain riddler. and penguin would be crazy but throw in a lil bane for the topping on the cake

My money is on Mr. Freez & Cat Woman. sorry guys I don't realy pay enough attention to hot babes to be able to say who I want for Cat Woman, just not Anjolina Jolie. she's to old IMO.

 

I don't think Catwoman works for the overall dynamic. The series has been about saving Gotham and Catwoman is more in for herself and not for the overall welfare of the city. Also I think Freeze would be too hard to not make campy. I have a feeling it will be someone we haven't seen in a Batman movie before, I think Nolan taking a character we don't have much if any preconceived notions about and taking it and just doing something amazing with it would make for a fitting finale to series..

I don't think Killer Croc would work either, even Nolan's Joker didn't fall in a vat of acid. If Nolan did Killer Croc it would just be a normal guy who wrestled crocodiles or something. It wouldn't be the reptile guy.

i see what you are saying. well if nolan keeps it real world possable then riddler and penguin would make the most logical chioce. but if this will be his last bat movie i still think we need 3 villians some how

Having too many villians in a movie destroys it. Anyone remember Spiderman 3? I'd really like to see Scarecrow be given a chance to really shine, the first two movies portrayed him as a joke villian.

I think Nolan was on vacation and last I heard hadn't discussed a third film. WB hopes for him. This is fan rumor. I think it would be a terrible idea. Depp is too big of a star and Riddler, regardless of Hush, is a weak Bat-villain. They can't try to repeat TDK with weaker characters. Riddler will remind people of The Joker. That's going backwards.

 

The more logical, and suitable story for Nolan's take, would be a Deadshot/Deathstroke/Bane story. The Joker can't be topped, so they should dip into another element of Batman's world. Just my two cents, but I'd be shocked if there was any truth to this.

 

Hoffman as Penguin on the other hand works well. Not as a primary villain, but shady casino owner/mob informant angle would be perfect in these films and Hoffman fits that bill well.

Well the most important thing right now is that no one knows who the villain will be and Nolan is not back on board and there is very little official talk of the third movie. While I think that most of the Batman rogues do not work I think Nolan and company will be looking for someone like Dummy or someone who is a little more out of the normal for a third villain. We do not need three villains or something like that, hell one is good enough if the villain is good. And Spiderman 3 is a perfect example of too many characters and too much story. Penguin would work if he isn't part bird, but I think its going to be someone not in the movies already.

I never refered that Scarface and Dummy would be the third

 

I want to see them in a movie vs Bats and not dependent on help from other villians

 

I don't know why there are two know

 

Its getting to be like Shumachers (villian wise)

 

Why do we need to go through the Dark Knights rogues gallery so fast

 

One villian per movie will suffice

I never said that Dummy was going to be in the third one I just agree with you that it would be an interesting character and one that would work for the series. I also don't think we need to correspond the villains with the number of the movie, actually TDK had three but only one was a "true villain". I really do agree that one villain per movie is enough.

I just hate them cramming them in like this

 

Well yeah Scarecrow is done, Two-Face is dead and I doubt that Joker will be back. So it would be a good idea for Batman to take on just one villain b/c with the way that TDK ended he would also have to worry about the Mob and the Police. So they already have a ready made story all they have to do is throw in a big bad for flavor and they got a good story. But you are right one villain is fine no reason for more.
