    I've seen separate threads for the casting of individual villains and/or villains who haven't been used in the prior Batman films, but how about a thread where we list any and every villain and who you'd like to see play them in one thread... Assuming this Bat-franchise goes on as long as the Bond series, cast any villain you'd like from A-list villains such as the Joker and Two-Face to obscure villains such as Abbatoir and Steeljacket.

    Here's my ideal cast for future Bat-villains...

    I've never thought of Jason Lee as the Joker. I think that could work.

    Strong disagreement with Pressley. I thought we wanted actors, not B-movie late-night Cinemax poptarts. Better off with a Blaylock

    Still think Liev Schreiber for Dent. But thinks Pierce is great.

    Doesn't Paul Giamatti look more like Gear head in that pic?

    And I'll have to go against everyone's easy choice for Catwoman. Still believe she'll be passed over.

    I Officially declare this the 99,000,000,000th "Cast all the villains" thread. It's about the fifth to have a picture comparison thing in the first post.






    I'll do mine in the morning.

    Jaime Pressly is more than a B-movie late-night Cinemax poptart. She has talent, and the role of Poison Ivy does not require someone of Julia Roberts calibur; just an actress with a beautiful bod/face who knows how to make the male audience members begin to sweat under their collars (which Pressly has down). Her face (the chin-line, the eyes, etc.) IS Poison Ivy, and her body is flawless. True, she has been in some pretty lame (late-night) movies/TV shows, but this could be her moment to shine. I am confident that she would nail the part if she were to get it.

    Thanks to those who complimented my casting ideas; I have a few more I'll be posting soon.

    i'm going with Cole Hauser as Harvey Dent/Two-Face. he looks a little more aggressive (like he could snap on you) than Liev Schrieber; stronger chin. he's also about the same age as Bale and has the raspy voice from the cartoon.http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/1007/Events/1007/mcg2?path=pgallery&path_key=Hauser,%20Cole

    I think a problem people might notice, if Crispin were to become Joker, is that his voice is very quivery. It's almost rather nervous sounding.
