I enjoyed the Joker's magic trick with the pencil.

Yes, that was very badass.


SPOILERS (i guess?)







Why did it seem like every black dude got owned in the movie?

-Gambol's thug (pencil guy)
-Gambol (why so serious, slit his mouth open)
-Random Cop (face blown off with a shotgun)
-Random Cop (shot in the hospital)

somebody was paying attention :NomNomNom:

luckily morgan freeman didn't die

That one guy who never really leaves

The Joker was awesome, but Two-Face had quite a bit of potential as well. Not nearly as much, but still, if they had just changed the story a bit so Two-Face could've survived...

I didn't like the way they just sort of disposed of Two-Face like he was some second-rate villain. Granted, between Tommy Lee Jones' Two-Face and Aaron Eckhart's Two-Face, Eckhart's >>>>>

I was satisfied with the Two-Face arc. This movie's Joker is easily good enough that he deserves to steal the screen from Eckhart (not that Eckhart's performance was bad, it's just that Ledger's was way too good), so I'm glad that he was the more prominent villain. Plus, the movie is already fucking 2.5 hours long. They just couldn't fit in more shit, about Two-Face or anyone else, without making it too damn long.

Anyway, who do you folks think the villains might be if Nolan were to make a third installment? So far he's been putting the villains in as two's, so I think he's likely to continue that. This film's ending seems to leave room for the Joker to star in a third movie, but with Heath Ledger's death, that probably won't happen. Over on RT people seem to think the Riddler is the most likely villain for a third movie, but I doubt Nolan would do that, as the Riddler is too similar to the Joker, whom he's just used.

Ah, the classic "guess the villain" game that we used to play with my friends back in elementary school when the first arc of Batman movies were popular.

I'd think the third movie, should there be one, would focus on Batman's fugitive status and how he redeems his reputation. As for adversaries, none really come to mind. The Penguin, perhaps?

Unless they can bring Heath Ledger back from the dead, I'd rather not see the Joker again. This is the way I want to remember the character forever, and let's face it, Mr. Ledger set an astonishingly high standard for the character.

I can't see someone like the Penguin as the next villain. It just doesn't fit in with the 'real, gritty' feel of the movies. Like Soja said, the movie's going to have to be about redemption somehow, but I don't see a villain that can really tie in with that.

Maybe Harley Quinn?

I don't know if you saw Batman Returns, but it's pretty dark, especially the Penguin's personal dilemma that drove him to criminality.

Harley Quinn would be good, imo. She's a character that was intriguing enough to carry her own series for a while, though her presence would have to be absolutely tied to the Joker's in some way.

I'm predicting that Harvey isn't dead. That fall was alot smaller than the one that broke the thug's ankles. Also, you never see his body in a casket annnnnnnnd they used Harvey's old picture, signifying that the old is dead but two face still lives. Besides, he was in a roll over with no scratches.

To be quite honest, I was expecting a post-credit scene where Harvey Two-Face suddenly regains consciousness or something before it cut to black.

Batman easily survived the same fall, and did it with a bullet in him, so yeah, it wouldn't be surprising if Two-Face returned.

The movie's ending seems to suggest that he is dead though, with Gordon seeming to hold a press conference honoring him, and Batman stating that "I did those things." If Two-Face were alive, they would've known and they wouldn't have been able to hide him, not legally atleast, and it seems unlikely that Gordon would turn to illegal means in order to prevent the public from knowing what Two-Face did. Then again, it's a movie, so it doesn't have to make logical sense.......neither Gordon's resurrection nor the "sonar on every phone in the city" trick were explained at all.

I think they intended to make the Joker the villain of the next film and let Two-Face RIP, but with Ledger dead Two-Face may take up that spot. I wouldn't mind seeing that, Eckhart was good, and the character has plenty more potential, considering that he only existed in like the last 30 minutes of the movie anyway.

As for a second villain, i dunno lol. Nolan doesn't want to use the Penguin. I can't see Catwoman being taken seriously in Nolan's "gritty realistic" style, same for Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy, the latter two in particular seem like one-trick ponies, it would be difficult to make them unpredictable and interesting.

Perhaps Ra's will return, we never literally saw him die in Batman Begins.

Just saw this for a second time tonight. For a movie as long and complex like this one, it was worth seeing again and picking up on all the details I missed.
