The Dark Knight Scarecrow

[CaptainClown]

coolest thing was the scarecrow spin gas (at the fake batman) I wish they went into fear O vision and showed Scarecrow beating up on the fake batman.

 

[Risingson]

Maybe it's because he didn't use the fear gas at first.

No, i'm talking about his normal voice. It was different.

 

[Rorschach II]

It's because this was the first time we really heard his voice after his whole psychotic break when he really became Scarecrow, after Batman used his own gas on him. His normal voice, that is, without hearing it through the ears of someone on fear gas.

Team up and be killed or end up in that Asylum that all of Batman's nemesis go to......

 

[Octoberist]

It's funny how i didn't mind this cameo at all, and how some people are being so...complainy about it. I understand how people wanted a bigger role for Scarecrow, but I've read "Oh they should of used a drug dealer instead of Scarecrow". Yeah, crazy commments that like.

It's just there to tie up the loose ends. If you didn't have this, then people will complain even MORE.

 

[CaptainClown]

I liked it as well

 

[typeorocks]

I loved it... I'm glad they tied up the loose ends by having him in it. Even tho it would have been cool if the fake batman who got gasses was freaking out while he was tied up. He was just sitting there with a normal look on his face.

ALSO..Crains line was one of the best:

Batman: I don't need Help
Crain: Thats not my Diagnostics

I liked it as well

Im with you guys, though I do think they could've done a little something more atleast Nolan adressed the situation and gave us an explanation to where and what Scarecrow was upto.

I thought it was pretty obvious what he's been up to based on the exchanges between him and the mob. Anything more would be useless expository dialogue.

Y
I'm looking forward to...

Shadow of the Bat
The Riddler (major villain)
Deadshot (minor villain)
Rupert Thorne (mob boss/elected official)
Ra's Al Ghul (at the end appearance)
Talia Al Ghul (minor villain)
Scarecrow (cameo)

The Riddler will be the main villain. Deadshot will be hired by the corrupt GPD members to take down Batman. Rupert Thorne will become the biggest, unseen mob leader in Gotham, while also being a very influencial elected official. Talia will be Bruce's new love interest (under the name of Julia O'Tool, or something) and it will later be known that she is Ra's daughter and that Ra's is alive (Liam Neeson) and that he is planning to destroy the city with nuclear radiation. In a final confrentation Ra's is about to destroy the entire city (along with neighboring cities which will be affected by it), when Talia realizes his plan (she was lied to and thought it was just gonna be the Narrows). Talia kills Ra's and in the process dies herself. Scarecrow will appear (not at the beginning of the film, as are many prequel cameos) but instead will appear like mid-film and have his own seperate plot which is a very small one... Scarecrow will be more like he is in the comics. He will have more weapons to use against Batman and will be harder to beat.

Rupert Thorne will be played by Philip Seymour Hoffman. He becomes obsessed with capturing Riddler because he knows the real identity of Batman. In one dark scene he interrogates him in a real narrow room about the width of Riddler himself! In this rat infested, smelly, cockroach-ridden room he is beat, electricuted and nearly killed. He is then drugged with a high dose of Scarecrow's drugs and is then thrown into that room by himself and the light is turned off. Riddler wakes up insane and a phycopathic genious (he was already a genious). This and a short confrontation between he and Batman is the only screentime Scarecrow will get... That battle will be later...

C'mon...get real dude...logically explain to me how Ra's survives that crash/explosion at the end of Batman Begins. No offense, but it's foolish to say he should be in the 3rd.

I agree. You have to really put his role into context. The only people who really expected anything from Scarecrow were those who followed the movie since its production and knew he was cast. They then formed their own plot about the Scarecrow teaming up with Joker, etc. and left themselves disappointed. If you just saw the movie and the Scarecrow happened to be there, I am sure you would appreciate the sense of continuity more. Batman takes out villains like that all the time in the comics/cartoon, especially the Scarecrow.

 

[The Shape]

I don't know why some people are hating on Scarecrow's part in TDK. It was cool little interlude into the story, and a great way to introduce Batman.

 

[CaptainClown]

ya, Batman fighting some thugs or Batman fighting scarecrow.

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

your point? The only way we know that is because Nolan shows it in TDK, otherwise Crane coulda been upto alot of different things, who know what he coulda been upto.

thats the best thing about it, introducing Batman in that way was awesome, I love that scene, and I love seeing Bats beat up those thugs it was so well done especially showing off the improvement of the fight scenes that early on, thats one of my fav scenes in the movie!

 

[CaptainClown]

I love the viral Gotham Tonight story about the kid who tried ecstasy, then proceeded to freak out and try to rip out his own eyes. Fear Toxin at its best.

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

Though I do wish we got to see some fear toxin stuff in the film, it was ok that we didnt. But in a way the pretty much ignored the whole Arkham breakout at the end of BB and all the fear gas effects on the inmates and such.

 

[dcpuser]

Which point would you like me to explain? That it was obvious we knew what Crane has been up to (He was NOT the villain for TDK so why the hell bother giving him more screen time) or that if Nolan filmed a sequence where Crane calls a timeout and has all of the mob men and his henchmen sit in a circle so he can discuss everything that transpired with his life from begins to TDK would be silly? Crane was dealing with the mob. He was selling drugs. Russian mob guy finds out the drug is laced with fear toxin still and confronts Crane. Hilarity ensues when fake Batmen show up. This was plain and obvious and a perfect resolution for Crane.

 

[Scarecrow91]

I loved this scene. No complaints at all

Scarecrow was done near perfectly

Had some of the best lines in the movie

only thing i couldve wished for is that he'd be in it longer but i liked it just the way it was

Im saying from what source are we supposed to know before viewing TDK that Crane is dealing with the mob, there are no facts on the matter, thats the point I am making.

 

[MovieGeekFreak]

i wish we saw more of scarecrow!!!

 

[storyteller]

I think it would be nice to make him a main villian for the next film. Given the destruction joker, caused, the Scarecrow could take advantage of that.

 

[Quinzel]

yeah it never did show him actually going to arkham.

 

[coleyhinson]

That did cross my mind...Brian was kidnapped...maybe from the scene where the batman intro happened... perhaps The Scarecrow was let go

Well Scarecrow did use some of it on one of the vigilantes before he got into the van . Also the Joker says the mob have been in fear of the cops for a year .
