The Dark Knight Harvey Dent/Two Face Thread

[Octoberist]

yes!

 

[The Caped Knight]

well how else would you expect a guy hit in the face with acid to look?


like this?

or this?

hopefully not this abomination

BTAS is my favorite version of TWO-FACE.

The scarred side of his face looks like taffy.


The older movie makes me hungry when I watch them because when I see Batman 89, and Joker in that the white looks like powder. He looks like a powdered donuts and that makes me want some donuts. Now I see that pic of two face and it looks like taffy, but it is too bad I can't find taffy around here anymore. lol.

HAHA
Batman '89 is edible! yum yum I always sort of had the joker-jelly donut idea,
but I never really thought of that actually, concerning two face, it does kind of resemble... taffy.. lol

In the latest Gotham Times, it says Dent's father died when he was very young, and he was raised by his mother. Does this mean we won't be getting the childhood abuse angle with Dent?

 

[Aidan2209]

^Most rikery.

 

[Nepenthes]

why the hell would you want to go into his childhood abuse anyway. not when you have the Joker, vigilantes, mob wars, blackmail, batpods, mass carnage and Gator to keep you occupied

never seen this before. wow. any others?





my main problem with the concept art (do we know this is concept art for certain?) is that his scarred side looks like a deer in the headlights. He looks dazed and corpse-like, more like a cheap horror-house mannequin than a scarred man ravaged by schizophrenia.

Also with no eyebrows, eyelids or lips it's nigh impossible to show facial expressions out what is essentially a crusted mask. Why would you do that, just paralyze half of an actors face? It means the Two-Face side of his identity would have less personality than Harvey Dent. This makes Harvey Dent the dominant side no matter what you do, that's how it will be perceived, as Harvey Dent merely "behaving" angry and psychotic with one half of his face frozen into a goofy stare, and not actually Two-Face and Harvey existing as separate identities in one body. He looks disgusting but can he convey emotion, or even menace? The second face of Two-Face needs to look like be a real person, not a doll.

i really dont see why so many ppl hated TLJ's twoface look, hes pretty much comic accurate and just gruesome enough.

 

[Bat-Mite]

Edit: Oops.. you said the look. I thought you meant the character in general. But yeah, aside from the outlandish dress (even more far out than the comics ever went), his scarred side looked like his face was covered in purple silly putty.

 

[TNC9852002]

Yeah, TLJ's Two-Face is pretty accurate, but they turned it a little too cartoony by making his face so brightly pink and giving him more of a permanent grin on that side instead of it looking like his cheekbones and jaw muscles were destroyed.

[The Guard]

It wasn't sure post, Figs. It was more a general sentiment of the look's critics that was prominent back when the concept art was first leaked. It segued into all this technical discussion about him going into shock, and wound infection, to the point where I just wanted to scream "HE'S A COMIC BOOK SUPERVILLAIN!"

You know, that actually kind of makes sense. Shock can take many forms, perhaps for Harvey Dent that's a part of it, that muddled inability to think clearly. In many versions of the character, the acid has eaten through, affected his brain, etc, that would be another angle of the same idea.

I really hope two-face looks like the leaked action figure pic

 

[TheBatman072]

Hmm.


All depends on HOW young. If Harvey's dad was dick enough, he could have beat him a few times before kicking the bucket, and Harvey was young enough to either not remember or just block it out.


So, we've got the possibility of repressed memories.

 

[batman_1982]

Maybe there will be a bit more to how harvey's dad died? Maybe he was killed by a mugger like bruce's parents in this one, which would help give them something to relate to. It's a bit of a stretch but you never know?

 

[TehUberMuffinXD]

I'd rather see Two-Face look like the concept art, but the design of the action figure, how it looks as if only part of his face is scarred, not right down the middle.

 

[Spoonman]

Yeah, TLJ's Two-Face is pretty accurate, but they turned it a little too cartoony by making his face so brightly pink and giving him more of a permanent grin on that side instead of it looking like his cheekbones and jaw muscles were destroyed.

Exactly, I actually like TLJ's makeup as Two-Face for the most part, What I don't like is the coloring, but the scarring itself is cool to me (love the evil grin). Of course I'm not saying that's something I'd like to see in TDK.

No, what I meant was, they were arguing that, realistically speaking, Dent would die from shock or infection, that he couldn't survive, never mind become the criminal Two-Face.
