- langdonalger, on 07/24/2008, -3/+142i'd really like to see a Nolan Catwoman.
EDIT: that's a Catwoman character played by an actress in a Nolan film, not Nolan as Catwoman. - fcruz1331, on 07/23/2008, -0/+82The Batman movies have focused a lot of attention towards the Mob, so Black Mask does seem like a likely possibility if he can be adapted the way they did with the Joker; the same can be said for the Riddler. As for the rest, I really hope that the producers do not sacrifice realism just for the sake of having a big name villain.
- CCB0x45, on 07/24/2008, -0/+43I hope that its Bane... bane from the comics was a badass... bane from batman and robin was completely retarded, he couldnt even speak! In the comics he was smarter than batman.
- whatthefu, on 07/24/2008, -1/+35It's going to be unbelievably hard to top the Joker. Half of those wouldn't be able to carry the movie as a "main" villain. Catwoman would simply be on the side since she is a love interest. The Riddler I could see happening, but to me he is like a lame version of the Joker.
- radsprack, on 07/24/2008, -2/+35Yeah...the article says that. Thanks for the update.
- bannus, on 07/24/2008, -2/+33How do you possibly pronounce Zsasz? Zuh-sass-iz? Just "zaz" ?
- SoopaflySAM, on 07/24/2008, -10/+38What!! No Mad-Hatter? Ventriloquist? Man-Bat? Clayface?
Half of these have already made it to the movies. Let other villains make it to the movies - Lucifugerising, on 07/24/2008, -0/+27Black Mask and Zsasz seem to fit Nolans bill perfectly.
I can also picture Strange being easily worked into a smaller role. - inactive, on 07/24/2008, -2/+29I want to see Bowser.
- hyperboy, on 07/24/2008, -1/+27Riddle me this Batman!
- TalkingBanana, on 07/24/2008, -2/+26...I wanna see Christopher Nolan as catwoman...
- Kohaxx, on 07/24/2008, -0/+22Meh, I liked the cartoon version, he had all the elements of a decent batman villain:
Snapped due to a bad day: check
Already had slightly insane tendancies (punctual to the point of obsessive/compulsive): check
No powers but picked a signature calling card with some cheesy themed weapons (Sword shaped like a clock hand): check
Certainly not a movie worthy villain but he wasn't the worst. Now Calendar man, that was another story:

- rbk303, on 07/24/2008, -1/+218 is kind of a lot for one movie isn't it?
- dagamer34, on 07/24/2008, -0/+20Catwoman is hardly a real "villian" but more a nuisance. I don't think you could drive an entire story with just Catwoman. Sure, she'll probably be in it as it plays into the whole anarchy bit, but we need a villian that can attempt to match the theatrics the Joker pulled.
And no, Nolan probably isn't going to do Catwoman + The Penguin. No "Batman Forever" rehashes please! - RedStateRetard, on 07/23/2008, -11/+30dugg because they left the "Clock King" off the list.
worse...villain...ev-er - swaters210, on 07/24/2008, -0/+19Black Mask would be some scary ***** in a Nolan film. I never heard of him until just now , when I looked at this article.
- ZenMojo, on 07/24/2008, -0/+18I think he means Cain and you mean Bane.
- Kohaxx, on 07/24/2008, -0/+18I think people are digging you down because they don't remember the Condiment King from the animated series.
Dispatcher: Disturbance reported at the top of the Crown restaurant. Suspect is a male costumed extremist armed with what appears to be a... ketchup gun.
Batman: It's going to be one of those nights.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Condiment King: So long, suckers! Parting is such sweet-and-sour sorrow. (Batman yanks away his loot bag) What's this? Ah! The big bad Bat-guy. I knew you'd ketchup to me sooner or later. How I relished this meeting. You, the dynamic Dark Knight, versus me, the conceptual Condiment King! Come, Batman. Let's see if you can cut the mustard.
Batman: Quiet! (He punches the King in the stomach)
Condiment King: (Slumps to ground, gasping) You hit me!
One of those priceless parodies of the campiness of Batman villains. - inactive, on 07/24/2008, -1/+18Aw, they left out the Condiment King
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -3/+20Mr. Mxyzptlk.
- cadmiumpaint, on 07/24/2008, -0/+14I like the Riddler, Zsasz....the serial killer aspect is great and i could see batman chasing down a creep like this. .the penguin could work if you reinterpreted him as a billionaire madman...Rockafeller meets insane crime boss kinda thing.
actually I think Nolan could make every character on that list work if he really wanted to. I think the Batman franchise is in good hands if he sticks to the the same philosophy that made the past two films great. - FUR10N, on 07/24/2008, -0/+14i could see edward norton as the riddle, that would be great
- Miamisun, on 07/24/2008, -3/+17I am voting for the cerebral assasin the Riddler. Room for a secondary villain might also be available. Hell bring back Scarecrow in the third movie as well.
- AllButOneDay, on 07/24/2008, -2/+14I have recommended John Malkovich for the role of Mr. Freeze in a previous post.
Maybe this time someone will read it. - krisscofield, on 07/24/2008, -2/+14I'd love to see Nolan or an equally as dark/creative director tackle Mr. Freeze. Maybe even bury and shame the Schumacher version?
- Kohaxx, on 07/24/2008, -0/+12Nah we still need time to recover from "Ice to meet you", that and the only way he could be envisioned realistically is as a chemist with a wife dying from cancer who makes a suit to commit crime with a gun that sprays liquid nitrogen, and even then, that's not cerebral enough to be a menace to Batman.
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -0/+12You're an idiot.
- blacklilyninja, on 07/24/2008, -1/+12needs new villain
i call him CUCUMBER EYES - xyllar, on 07/24/2008, -1/+12Now there's a character that just SCREAMS realism.
- Aigan, on 07/24/2008, -0/+10Who honestly played that?
- martoq, on 07/24/2008, -1/+11I'd settle for one well thought out one.
- CLShortFuse, on 07/24/2008, -0/+9"zaz"
as pronounced in the Batman Begins video game - jellydoughnut21, on 07/24/2008, -2/+11you can't say bad things about Batman on digg!! DUGG DOWN DUGG DOWN!!
- vgtek, on 07/24/2008, -0/+9Damn, Ice Cube knocked Debo all the way to Gotham?
- CCB0x45, on 07/24/2008, -0/+9That is Batman Returns. Batman Forever was Riddler and 2 Face
- vism, on 07/24/2008, -0/+9While on a 3g iphone
- Kohaxx, on 07/24/2008, -2/+11Mad Hatter doesn't work without superpowers.
Clayface clearly has superpowers.
Man-Bat. worst named on the list and obvious superpowers.
Ventriloquest, he's a crazy old guy with split personalities, no thanks. - mecharabbit, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8You racist bastard! Why does it have to be an African American playing BLACK Mask?
- chancesarent, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8Why do people equate that guy with Bane? He has nothing in common with the Bane character besides being large. That, and the prisoner was actually a pretty noble and stand-up guy.
- 2h3px, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8So basically someone compiled the comments here: http://digg.com/movies/So_Where_Does_The_Dark_Knig ... into a story.
- tweaq, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8Me and my friend were talking about the next villain the other day and decided on the Ventriloquist, because he would fit in with the tone of the TDK and he hasn't bee used before. But Nolan has stated that The Riddler is the only villain he is interested in working with, but I don't think he would fit in with the tone of his movies. (he doesn't kill anyone)
- Kohaxx, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8True, however there is no current technology that could be possibly misconstrued to make his hats seem realistic. It's about the same as trying to pass off the Mr. Freeze storyline.
- sindex, on 07/24/2008, -0/+8Oh god no.... do not want.
- chicken101, on 07/24/2008, -3/+10Dark Mask played by Samuel l. jackson.
- WillNavidson, on 07/24/2008, -0/+7Batman Gothic would make a marvelous and truly scary film; unfortunately, this will absolutely never happen.
- eastsoccer19, on 07/24/2008, -0/+7Nolan already said the Penguin was too zany for his interpretation.
- MaxwellEugene, on 07/24/2008, -0/+7You don't. You read it in dialog balloons.
- DarkDx, on 07/24/2008, -1/+8I'm tired of these ***** bat mans in my ***** city!
- fcruz1331, on 07/24/2008, -0/+6I don't think there's any chance we see a new Joker any time soon. Rumor has it that he was intended to play a part in Batman 3 but was eventually written out after Ledger's death.
