The Dark Knight Harvey Dent/Two Face Thread

[ghost_x]

I loved Lee's Two Face, his look was far closer to a burn than usually interpreted, he had that decayed, moulded effect, which personally I think would look great on screen.

By the way, has anyone seen Thursday, it's an overlooked gem of a film. It's a very Tarantino style film, with black black comedy and sharp dialogue. It's Quite old now but Eckhardt is in it along with Thomas Jane and Mickey Rourke. Eckhardt plays a crazy gangster, it's a nice watch to see what he could bring to the Dent role.

They should have replaced Rachel with Dent in BB, this way we could have a Two-face in The Dark Knight (now they have to rush this). Then we could have had The Joker in a story simulair to that of TLH and DV.

I think that to intriduce Dent in TDK is quite perfect, as long as two face doesnt appear till the last shot of TDK or in another sequel, just build the character in this movie, and use the villain in the next movie/s.

I hope Dent hasn't become two face by the end of this film. I really hope they end TDK as the trial is about to commence, but you see whoever it is sneak in the acid. That way you can leave the audience anticipating the verdict of Joker? and for anyone who doesn't know will be led to realise that there will be trouble at the trial and someone will be getting hurt. Than the very first scene of Batman 3 will be the continuing of the trial.

I would go one further and actually have the acid splashed on his face and have the last shot of him in the hospital... all bandaged up.... then the screen goes black and you hear that familar sound of a coin flip...

That might be nice. It would create a nice structure if TDK ended with an allusion to Two Face in the same way that Begins ended with an allusion to The Joker.

my thoughts exactly. after i saw Begins i started writing a fanscript for the third film, and it opened with Harvey already scarred and in the hospital. never got far with the script though....

 

[Dark Knight]

when and if harvey becomes two-face, would any off shoot of jae lee's interpretation be stupid?

Which book is this art from?

That was what my idea was leading to, it's too obvious to have Dent scarred at the end and than end on a cliffhanger after seeing his face. By leading up to it, it creates a sense of foreboding, you have the surprise of Jokers conviction at the end and the sense that someone is going to be seriously injured with the acid. That's a real cliffhanger.

this would be nice. but not hte last scene of hte movie. this is a movie about batman so i think it would be nice to see him again glide above the city.

 

[C.R.E.]

I think the ending can go either way and it will still be good; two-face could show up at the end of TDK or at the begining of the 3rd movie. I think he will show up at the end of TDK in one of the last scenes. But I'm pretty sure he wont be a villian in this movie at all, because it would be too much story to fit into one film. I think they are just going to establish the Harvey Dent character.

Forgive my ignorance, people, but has there ever been a storyline where the Joker and Two-Face fight? At the risk of sounding like a nine year old that would be money

 

[ghost_x]

ye, there was a special called Batman: Two Face (I think that was it's name), Two Face kills Pamela Isley, who wasn't Poison Ivy in this. There was some sort of potion involved in the story which was created from a plant (pamela's involvement) it would cure Two Faces split personality, but Bruce takes it and he gets super strength. Selina Kyle's also in it, but she's not Catwoman either just another superhero. Joker cripples her, very similiarly to Barbara. Joker and Dent and I think Gordon was there fight, Joker basically kicks the crap out of Dent. It ends quite strangely, I think Batman died and two face too the potion and becomes a superhero who looks like Batman.

Obviously it was an alternate world from the regular Batman.

Well, The Joker fights Harvey in The Long Halloween, and shoots Two Face in Dark Victory. They also have a great standoff in Engelhardt's Dark Detective run.

Yeah, I was about to mention the Englehart story. Great stuff between them. Nothing else springs to mind other than what you've mentioned.
