The Dark Knight Rises Matches Malone In Third Film

[returntovoid]

I think Batman should use the Matches Malone identity to escape the police in the third film. Matches Malone was created by Dennis 'O Neil and introduced in Batman #242 (June 1972). Malone is former small-time mob leader and Batman sees his good deeds. When Batman begins his war on Ra's Al Ghul, Batman first asks Malone for help. Malone refuses and tried to shoot Batman but is killed by the ricochet of his gun and Batman uses his identity to gather information.

that would be a good idea

 

[Sweetchuck]

Huh? That wouldnt be a bad b plot for the movie...

Matches Malone should be a cop instead of being a Mob IMO.

that doesn't make sense... criminals don't talk to cops. A Matches Malone identity has to be free of any ties to the police in order to gain trust in the underworld.

I guess you're right.

I guess you're right.

I think that's the appeal of Matches Malone. Batman isn't a cop, so he never slips into seeming like one or acting like one, as an undercover cop might do.

I agree with that.

How does Wayne disguise himself as Malone?

 

[Nepenthes]

with a scar on his face, fake beard and crappy clothes

It's good because as someone pointed out on another thread, Batman is outlawed.... but Matches Malone isn't.

 

[DeGenerate10]

So is he suppose to be on the run from the cops go take off his suit which could take a while and put on some hobo rags? I don't think it would work.

 

[Sam18]

Maybe he can pretend to be Bruce Wayne to escape from the police.

Is that really what you think i'm talking about?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

[Charlie The Red]

I'm all for Matches Malone...in fact, I was hoping and praying that we'd get a little bit of him in The Dark Knight.

 

[ThePoisonPuppet]

trying to look gritty, maybe he can re swap jackets with that Bum...

 

[Gianakin_]

^Heh.

Sure, I'd like MM in BB3. When Bruce left the hideout with his red motorcycle in TDK to go and look into things in the Loeb funeral scene, I half-expected him to wear some prosthetics before leaving, thus turning into MM.

 

[Nepenthes]

Batman is outlawed...Matches Malone isn't.

those were my exact words. I'm bemused that you need elaboration but here we go.

If someone sees Batman on the streets they might call the cops. Helicopters and cars will be chasing him wherever he goes and this is inefficient. But if someone sees Matches Malone walking down the street, there not gonna give a damn are they. Bruce can do his detective work and mission prep much easier as Matches, and then go into the costume when he really needs to make an appearance and strike fear.

 

[Riven]

Meh.

Yeah, I still don't like it. Keep that for the comics and cartoons. Bad idea for a movie IMO.

 

[Nepenthes]

why on earth would you say that?

 

[DeGenerate10]

why on earth would you say that?

Because I don't like it. Just because you think it's a good idea doesn't mean I have to.

 

[Malone]

Malone, hmm. I like that name .

The idea seems pretty cool.

 

[darkseid26]

^^lol

yeah, i like this idea, i'm for it.
