dark knight...ONLY IF YOU SAW IT...SPOILERS!

[Mukandpuria]

I don't know i think Poison Ivy would be a good one

Nikhil, If you watch the film again (guys a video couple of vidcam versions are available online, won't elaborate anymore though), youll see that after Gordon reveals himself as alive, harvey dent is being questioned by reporters where he says "I counted on batman to save my ass" or something like that, Ramirez (girl officer) puts him in a car with the white-haired male officer (can't remember his name). Thats how he ends up in their hands.

As for a next villain, riddler i think would be the best. He has the only hope for providing a new type of villain, one who presents batman with puzzles to solve in order to achieve a final goal, all the time being pursued by the police for his actions in TDK. But honestly, no villain is going to be able to follow up the joker, particularly with heath ledgers performance. Though subtle, when he asks the officer how many of his friends he had killed, then mouths the word "six" in a false shock/awe action, is in my opinion the sickest scene. Also the way he transitioned seemlessly from comical to psychotic, for instance when he is videotaping the fake batman and says "look at me" then SHOUTS it in a beast-like voice. In my opinion, one of the best movies I've ever seen. "How about a magic trick?" lolll best scene of the movie.

 

[Raashi]

this movie was brilliant.

heath ledger stole the show tho--- amazing acting... i don't think anyone can replace him...

-- rachel is really dead right? she's not gonna come back to life or anything?

anddd did they have a scene after allll the credits cuz sometimes they do to set up for the next movie... just wonderinggg.

 

[HermanJ.]

The sickest movie ever. The Joker was played so good my Ledger. Unreal. If they make another one I wouldn't mind having the villain as The Riddler or even Scarcrow. The beginning of the movie was sick, when the jokers gang robbed the bank, and they all took each other out. But again, sickest movie EVER!

 

[Jimmy]

Yea im looking forward to the riddler being in the next one with maybe 2-face around. I dont think he'll be running forever. It's just what gotham needs right now.

A lot of movies get screwed in the last of the trilogy. Only one i can remember that didnt was LotR. Hopefully the next one will be just as great even without the joker

 

[Nikhil]

No they didn't have anything after the credits.

I know b/c I stayed like a moron!
Thanks Kush!

 

[Jimmy]

I stayed too :|

Now that you think about it. Joker and Ra Al-Gul were Batman's biggest villians. Honestly, I cannot think of SOLID villians for Batman to fight now that would compare to these two mastermind. Okay, maybe Riddler. But Penguin was weak. Poison Ivy was weak. Mr. Freeze was weak, but had a touching background storyline.

I hope they don't have Robin. Ever.

 

[Kush]

Np Nikhil. By the way guys, as for staying after the credits. It's a marvel gimmick. DC has never done it (thus far).

Also, though they haven't planted anything for Robin, I'm fairly sure a very young version of BATGIRL was present in the film. anyone who knows Batman will probably have caught this... (Gordon's Daughter). I'm not saying that they'll grow on this at all, but if it were the comics, thats who she'd become!

Another interesting tidbit: This movie is currently at #1 for Best Movies of All Time on IMDB, though not at a fraction of the votes that Godfather, Shawshank Redemption, or Godfather 2 have, its been sitting up there.

And final thought-provoking question. Could you/would you have pushed the button??? or would you even be able to throw the detenator off the boat, like that bigass excon dude did? (though i'm assuming you'd be on the citizen boat since i doubt any of our members are posting from a jail cell).

 

[kinnell]

Yeah I agree - that was a shining moment in the film. When the convict took the remote and said "Let me take the guilt. Let me do what you should have done 10 minutes ago" and threw it out.

OMFG. This was an amazing movie. I cannot get the movie out of my head. It worked on so many levels. I hope I live long enough to see another movie as good as this one. :

 

[Jessica]

the movie was AMAZING, and Heath Ledger was the best joker, just wish he would've said "Why so serious?" a bit more in the movie lol

 

[yraparla]

More than any other part of the movie, Heath is most creepy to me when hanging upside down and cackling. That image of him doing this swimming motion and laughing maniacally is still in my head 2 days later.

 

[Jabar Jung]

BESt superhero movie, fk spiderman and all the other pple...and fk batman too. It was all about the joker!!!

HE was insane, Pencil trik was brilliant haha


im going to watch it again!

...why so serious?

 

[kinnell]

im going to watch it again!

I think I will do that too. Damn. lol

 

[abhigames]

i was told that the guy who tries to reveal batman's identity eventually becomes the riddler. also, think about how they casted a well known actor (anothny michael hall or whatever his name) to the role of the tv newscaster - he could become a villain as well.

the joker is the anti-batman, the batman is the anti-joker...theyre jst compliments of each other, each unable to exist without the other. twoface is still alive - he is beind held in arkham where he is bantered by other criminals in there, eventually leading to him creating a deeper more evil two face persona

ra al ghul could come back as he is immortal...according to the comics batman falls in love with his daugther as well. robin could be interesting if they make him out to be the first robin (the one who ends up killing a person with a gun because the villian kills his girlfriend...he and batman part ways, but he later comes back as nightwing which would be siickkk)

they could bring harley quinn - a nice addition to the joker, but ultimately annoying. killer croc would be cool...The Mad Hatter could actually prove to be a versatile character, even the ventriliquist could be pretty creeepy going with the whole nolan schematic.

who knows though

The director said he doesnt want to get into the robin saga.

The manager of the bank was also a popular actor as a choice.

The movie was brilliant. I've always felt that the Joker was one of the best villains of all time, in any genre or medium, and Heath Ledger finally realized that potential. It's been a great summer for comic book movies with this, Iron Man, and Hellboy 2 (which was great as well, though not nearly as many people saw it). And I still have yet to see the Hulk.

And final thought-provoking question. Could you/would you have pushed the button??? or would you even be able to throw the detenator off the boat, like that bigass excon dude did? (though i'm assuming you'd be on the citizen boat since i doubt any of our members are posting from a jail cell).

This was such a great, suspenseful moment. I was just waiting for one of the boats to push the button, only to find out that it was rigged to their own explosives, killing themselves. That certainly would have fit in with the Joker's knack for creating chaos and confusion, but wouldn't have worked out as well thematically.

Also, the movie definitely makes you believe that Harvey Dent has died by the end, but I would bet money on him returning as at least 1 of the primary antagonists in the third one. I don't think the Riddler would be included with him, since that would be too similar to Batman Forever, but I could see another minor villain being reinvented and included with Two Face. Maybe the Penguin as a more realistic mob boss, as Sulmoney guessed. That could potentially provide some opportunities for Dent to struggle with his dual nature as he might have to cope with cooperating with an evil crime boss. Catwoman is another character with ambiguous morals that might make it interesting.

jus saw the movie and OMG tooo good i was entertained from start to finish...i wish there was moree of Joker...Joker can't be replaced.
"why so serious???" best line

Yep, I thought that was what was going to happen - especially with all the twists we were handed to us. I totally agree that it would have been Joker's style. I'm sure it would have happened, but we shall never know. lol

Hmmm, I really doubt that Dent will make another appearance, unfortunately. Nolan has tried to make everything in Batman make sense whether it was identifying each villian's madness or showing how the characters came to be (All of the Joker's stories were awesome). Dent fell down and presumably broke his back... unless they were able to save him and kept his existence from the public.

 

[Chidiya]

WOW! Undoubtedly THE best movie I have EVER seen in my life. Heath Ledger definitely stole the show..what an amazing job he did!!!! I was drooling when Bruce Wayne was on the screen ;-)

So the two people that Dent killed were in fact with the Mob? I'm a bit confused on that one..? But he came after Gorden too..does that mean he was on their payroll as well?

Even though it was a long movie..it really didnt feel like it...every single second of it was worth it!!!

Why soooo serious?
