That's pretty much everything :hehe:
 
That's my order of best to crappiest Aegy...:dry:

Don't know if I missed any...
 
Joker - Ledger
Two-Face - Eckhart
Catwoman - Pfeiffer
Penguin - DeVito
Riddler (green) - Carrey
Joker - Nicholson
Two-Face - Lee Jones
Riddler (silver) - Carrey
What about Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Bane, Scarecrow and Ra's al Ghul?
 
1. Catwoman.
2. Joker(s)
3. Penguin
4. Bane
5. Mr. Freeze
6. Poison Ivy
7. Riddler
8. Two-Face (Jones)
10. Scarecrow

Not counting Ra's or Aaron Eckhart's Two-Face because they weren't wearing costumes.
 
1. Joker (Both Ledger and Nicholson)
2. Catwoman
3. Two Face (Eckhart)
4. The Penguin
5. Poison Ivy

The rest are either meh or bloody awful, IMO.
 
In ways I really think that Burton’s Catwoman was the best visual interpretation of her ever done; Comics and Film alike. While I love the film Jokers both, they don’t hold a candle to some comic book versions.

Well a good excuse would be that I don't consider Batman and Robin as a movie...But a poor excuse to cash in on the Batman name...

But really...Ijust forgot...Thanks for the reminder!

Agreed.
 
Joker = Heath Ledger. Jack's was more in line with the flair of the comics, but Ledger's contributes greatly to the creepy factor.
Penguin = Burgess Meredith. Sorry, but for lack of a "Nolanized" version, I like my Pengies as dapper coattailed fellows who could actually pass for crime bosses, rather than mutant-man-birds suffocated by fur coats and grungy old umbrellas.
Catwoman = Michelle Pfeiffer. And that's all I have to say about that.
Riddler = Frank Gorshin, but not the tights - rather, his suit with the bowler, coat, vest, and slacks.
Two-Face = Aaron Eckhart. Because even beyond just the suit, they got the scarring to look semi-realistic, and while that's not exactly part of his costume, it IS integral to Two-Face's appearance.

And yes, Meredith and Gorshin did play those characters on the big screen, so I therefore included the '66 movie.

I can't count the suits in B&R simply because: A) it's the only time any of those characters have appeared in a live-action movie so far, and B) I haven't seen the movie in a long time, and frankly that's not something that I'm ashamed of.
And true, altogether there have been four different live-action Freezes, each with a distinct look (George Sanders, Otto Preminger, and Eli Wallach on the TV series; Arnold Schwarzenegger on the big screen), but frankly I'm not impressed with any of their getups.

What about Riddler when he's wearing the jacket that lights up? It keeps him safe while he's jogging at night! :hehe:
 
Catwoman. :wow:

Followed by Heath's Joker (that's my kinda style!) and Carrey's Riddler (when he enters Two-Face's lair - the suit and bowler hat; not the later Ziggy Stardust look :o).
 
Nicholson's Joker, Devito's Penguin make-up + costume, and Michelle Pheiffer's Catwoman suit. :up:
 
Nicholson's Joker had some awesome suits. I never really understood how he managed to assemble so much purple stuff so quickly, but I really do want those plaid pants he had.
