I'd go with The Penguin and either have Danny Devito reprise him or totally run the other way with the character.

Update him, redesign the character, and make him modern. Not sure how at this point at the night since its getting late, but I am sure someone has good ideas they'd like to share on an updated Penguin.

I'd hate for either of them to be the main villains.

I'd love to see the Ventriloquist because we haven't seen him on film before, but ultimately if it came down between the two of them, I think Penguin would be the more realistic, and thus more fitting choice for this franchise.

That said, I'd probably pick either Philip Seymour Hoffman or Ian McShane (who would help keep up the number of quality Brit actors).

never thought about Ian McShane as the Penguin...

that's him without his mustache... would that be more fitting for the Penguin?

Ian is too bad ass to be a penguin

two more votes and I will unveil the next poll. Right now Penguin would be moving on.

Ventriloquist

Well, I'm biased. I love the Philip Seymour Hoffman Ventriloquist picture that's been floating around. I think Killingyouguy made it?

The worst Ventriloquist could do is hit someone over the head with his dummy, and he wouldn't even do that because he thinks Scarface is a real person. Penguin at least has his umbrella weapons.
