Max Shreck

[Nirvana]

Is he not the most Bad Ass person ever? Seriously, Christopher Walken is awesome and Max Shreck is definitely one of my favorite early Bat-Films Villains.

Discuss!

 

[The Joker]

"You think you could go fifteen rounds of Mohammed Shreck?"

Max was awesome

 

[Venom75]

I liked him too,although I wasn't crazy about the hair. lol
Burton based him off the the actor who played Count Orlock in Nosferatu(1922)and you can't get any creepier than him.

"Bottom line, she tries to blackmail me, I'll drop her out a higher window. Meantime, I got better fish to fry!"

Haha

Burton himself said that he found Christopher Walken pretty as hell.

Does anyone have any high resolution photos of Max? Or photos of when he was fried?

PRETTY? Gotta link? I must see this t:

 

[Bat Attack]

I thought he was a cool for an original character not from the comics.

Like the Red Triangle Circus Gang, I though Max Schreck could easily come from the comics - especially the Bob Kane era. He could have been in that weird story about vampires and werewolves.

 

[Two-Face]

I like Walken as an actor but I never liked his character, he took Dent's place in RETURNS.

Haha, I meant to say "Pretty Scary".

 

[Doctor Jones]

Max Shreck was there to show the mirror image of Bruce Wayne. And I really liked his character.

 

[Greg]

I LOVE Max Shreck in this movie. He has such great lines and always makes me laugh at this scene...

MAX: Ingenious costume. Let me guess... Trust-fund goody-goody?
BRUCE: Course you're feeling fine ... You almost made a monster the Mayor of Gotham City.

MAX I am the light of this city. And I am its mean, twisted soul. Does it really matter who's the "mayor"?

BRUCE: It does to me.

MAX: Yawn.

Haha! The way it's delivered and his facial expression is so damn hilarious! t:

Je was originally the Penguin's brother, you know...and before that, he was Harvey Dent.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Really? I didn't know that. You are interesting...

 

[El Payaso]

I like the character.-

It's really hilarious the way he can be such an hypocrit with so little problem and such a straight face.

 

[The Shredder]

That's what happens when you cast Christopher Walken.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Yeah, I knew. Too bad about Harvey Dent not making it in. He could of just been present in a few scenes though. Did you read Sam Hamm's Batman II's script? It was meh for me. Though I liked some of the stuff they had. I liked that it didn't just take place in the city square. And I liked the museum Bruce/Selina scene. I love BR and I think it's very underrated but if they added more scope to the film I think it could of been as good as B89.

 

[K.B.]

Anything Walken is amazing.

 

[Lone Nut]

Max was a great character. One of my favorites. He had a lot of great lines. The hair was a little much. He he.

 

[C. W. Saturn]

He is like Qui-Gon Jinn - totally unnecessary, but good.

 

[November Rain]

I'm surprised he never made any other transition into other mediums. I reckon he could have worked well in the batman

 

[C. W. Saturn]

Dagget from BTAS was intended to be Shreck.

 

[ronny]

Wait, so he was originally a pre-Two-Face Dent? So that means Burton was going to make Harvey crooked right from the start? Good man.

 

[The Joker]

How was he unnecessary? He was instrumental in both the Penguin's and Catwoman's storylines.

Yep, it was in Sam Hamm's original script. Catwoman scars him and he becomes Two-Face for the third film. I'm sure it would have been pretty cool.

Precisely.

 

[The Navigator]

I like how he just shrugs off the Penguin after Batman plays those incriminating recordings. Such a politician.
