Bruce Wayne for sure.
 
Gordon. The ending of TDK just slays me every time 'Stop pointing that gun at my family!'. Brilliant stuff, and a great representation of Jim as he is in the comics.
 
I like Bruce/Batman but I like Harvey/Two-Face a lot more and I don't see why you can't be fan of these villians they make him.... "Complete" like The Joker says in TDK.
 
The Joker, easily my favorite character.

From that card reveal at the end of Begins to Ledger's actual performance in The Dark Knight, he's the BEST thing to come out of these films.
 
Gordon definitely followed by Ra's al Ghul and Harvey Dent.
 
Jim Gordon.
It's a shame that he was kinda underused in TDKR. He should have done all the things John Blake did.
 
Bruce and Gordon are neck and neck but I got to give it to Bruce.
 
Jim Gordon.
It's a shame that he was kinda underused in TDKR. He should have done all the things John Blake did.

Including inheriting the Bat-cave?

It would bring "I've gotta get me one of those" full circle though.
 
Bruce Wayne/ Batman, of course.

Besides this I love Jim Gordon, and the Joker as villain.

Oh, I forgot about his scene. But why not?

Jim Gordon is "The Batcop".


Imagine Gordon in his brand new Tumbler cruisin' through Gotham with his Bat costume on and the mustache and the glasses clearly on show.
Kinda reminds me of Milhouse as Fallout Boy.
 
Fave female character is Catwoman, but then the competition aint up to much.
 
I agree with Catwoman.

Unfortunately she deserved a much better movie than TDKR. And a cowl, of course.
 
1. John Blake
2. Jim Gordon
3. Lucious Fox
4. Batman/Bruce Wayne
5. Alfred Pennyworth

Villains, traitors, cheaters, etc all ranked lower
I'd give Rachel Dawes a higher rating if she disappeared after Batman Begins, but the Dark Knight ruined her

As for how I rate villains:
1. Bane
2. Scarecrow
3. Joker
4. Carmine Falcone
Followed by the rest
 
Eh, kind of difficult to give a straightforward list, given how some of those characters can't even compete against each other (i.e. one being more about over-the-top performance, the other a relatable everyman etc.)... Bane is mostly a performance and a presence than a character, while the other big "larger than life freak", the Joker, is already more of a personality. Jonathan Crane (the BB one) probably takes the cake as the "normal" kind of cold-eyed villain, followed closely by Stryver, and... well, no one left in that category except those creepy LoS extras from BB :D
Falcone > Maroni in terms of semi-comedic mobster charm, the Chechen is a unique ethnic caricature and also in his own category, and Flass the dirty bastard can't really be compared to anyone either.
Then we haev the slightly comical "camp" blokes: the CIA agent's the best, then Daggett, and... wait who else?

Among the good guys, Catwoman and Bruce Wayne are the ones providing the theatralic comedy... she is awesome half the time and kind of awkward otherwise, he's completely awesome but only has few scenes in that character. So he'd be number one then?
Batman, the OTT version, starts out really cool, but then start becoming corny at the very end of TDK, and then it only gets worse. Where to place him?

Bruce Wayne himself morphs between charismatic, stoic and slightly dull, no idea - and Harvey Dent is a unique case of a character morphing from relatable and human into over-the-top. Guess they're about equal? Blake may be equal to Dent before he turns evil / starts showing his darker side in terms of being the sympathetic nice guy, although not sure if he get to do all that much otherwise...

Fox, Alfred and Ra's (and maybe Rutger Hauer) are equally charismatic in their supporting roles I'd say, both Rachels are merely okay.

The "devil" prisoner and the guy telling about the stolen evaporator definitely take the cake as the best one scene wonders in BB :)


So really, ****ing impossible topic makes brain hurt, no vote from me :D

I like all of them. It's really hard to choose the one. I was chose Bruce. In this trilogy we were watched Bruce's ups and downs. We saw how complex is this character.
But if I will have to choose the best villain I will take Bane.
