The Dark Knight Rises The Dark Knight Sequel Info Hunters

[Micah12345]

Joker is a good character make up or no. Hugo Strange is a terrible villain.

I loved Watchmen. Is there something wrong with me?

I enjoyed Watchmen , there are some things that could of been done better but there was never going to be a perfect interpretation. Snyder got most of it right .

 

[Sith Scotti]

Joker is a good character make up or no. Hugo Strange is a terrible villain.

Based on what . I saw some dame good animated episodes with Strange . Strange works with the right material. and Im pretty sure Catwoman will be the marketable character now.

 

[Wolverine1988]

Like it or not, its' a 50/50 shot that one ofthe villains will be Strange or Black Mask, off Batmans rouge gallery that HASN'T been seen on the screen and that fits with Nolans world , both of those are the only logical choices.

Regardless who the villain is, this a Christopher Nolan movie, i have faith in ANY villain he decides to use, but i have had a strong feeling he was gonna use hugo strange for a good year now , not sure why just have.

I just hope Catwoman is in indeed in this.

 

[Jack]

All I'm saying, is in my humble opinion....Hugo Strange is about as anti-climatic of a Batman villian as you can choose, especially for Nolan's film series.

Can Nolan make him work? Yeah, sure.

Are there characters I would much rather see on the screen? Any and all before Strange.

I'm just glad this is a rumor.

 

[Changeling]

Strange will make an incredible villain. Plus we all know Nolan will probably be reworking the character a lot. I have complete faith in Nolan with Strange if he indeed decides for him to be the villain

 

[Jack]

Strange was only in one BTAS episode, and used a machine to see Bruce's thoughts and tried to auction off his identity.

Cool episode, but that hardly carries a movie...if Strange's biggest 'plot point' is that he discovers Batmans identity....why don't we just let Coleman Reese be the frickin' villain, I'm sure Nolan can make him interesting for 2 1/2 hours.

 

[antsman41]

I'm having a STRANGE, pun intended, feeling that Hugo will be a TV psychiatrist (like the guy in the TDKReturns) that has an obsession to find out about the Batman who then is brought in as a consultant for the GCPD's manhunt on Batman. Which Hugo betrays them because his psychotic idea that he can be Batman overides his job...?

 

[Wedge A.]

Wow, i just read the outline for Prey. That actually makes sense for where I think this story shoud go.

Now I'm off to read it and eat my foot.

If its Hugo Strange , I am almost willing to bet anything Catwoman is in it. There have been rumors for a long time that this was going to be based off much of Prey .


Catwoman/Strange I can live with

 

[Wolverine1988]

Joker is a good character make up or no. Hugo Strange is a terrible villain.

Your judgin it before you even seeing any thing of what Nolan has in mind, not even footage.

Besides countless times we have seen villains that were considered bad or lacking and see them become great villains on screen,

Deacon Frost, Toad(More so the fact that made him a bad ass martial arts expert instead of a toad dressed like a clown), General Zod are some that come to mind that weren't a huge name or considered great villains on paper but turned out to be good/entertaning bad guys on screen,

Plus even better we have a director like Nolan, so you gotta have some faith in him that he can make Strange or any other villain interesting and great for a movie.

 

[Jack]

If Catwoman's in this movie, which I suspect heavily she will be...she'll definitely be carrying the movie...as far as villians go...unless they give her more of an anti-hero twist like she normally has.

More Scarecrow...throw in Bane or Mad Hatter or Black Mask or Ventriloquist...

Please God, just no Strange

 

[PreK]

Honestly guys, if there's anyone who's well aware at the level of anticipation geared towards this film, it's Nolan. The guy doesn't like committing to sequels, he's undoubtedly getting pressure from WB, and his general recognition of making exciting mainstream films -- all contribute to a director who's stepped up to the plate.

Regardless of who the villains end up being, I'd be shocked if the movie itself didn't at least try to be a worthy follow-up. The bar should at the very least be intended to be met. Whether it raises it is the actual question.

 

[The Demon's Head]

If there's a 50/ 50 chance the villain is either Black Mask or Hugo Strange, I think we're better off with Strange. He's a much more layered and complex villain. Not to mention he's a villain that can get inside Batman's head, unlike Black Mask.

Did you seriously just compare Blade to anything that remotely has anything to do with Batman?

 

[Bat-Mite]

The support for this villain reminds me of how people were willing to bend over and accept a two-face with a tiny patch of melted skin on his cheek, or a joker with only a black trenchcoat and a cut smile.

He's a character that's been in the Batman mythos as long as the Joker has been. He may not be as theatrical as most of Batman's other villains, but that doesn't mean that he isn't worthwhile. He's easily one of Batman's most twisted villains. Have you ever read Batman and the Monster Men?

 

[Micah12345]

I've read the original monster men story, I own batman and the monster men and prey, and I didnt' like any of them.

 

[Sith Scotti]

Read Prey . This story mskes logical sense after whereTDK left off. Prey was a fantastic story

 

[bullets]

I've read a lot of Batman over the years and I'm not familiar with Hugo Strange . If he is the main villain I'll be indifferent to it.

Plus Catwoman can be the theatrical "mainstream" villain the film needs for marketing. Hardy's role could be like Eckhart's Harvey Dent in terms of screen time.

His first appearance in the Batman comics means absolutely nothing as to whether or not he's a good villian...except that it is telling that he isn't in the comics that often for some reason.

I've read Batman and the Monster Men. Have you ever read Batman: Hush?
I don't know why I feel so strongly against having Strange...everyone has a good point that Nolan is definitely under pressure to make at least as much of an epic film as he did with TDK...but still....ughhh

 

[Sith Scotti]

See I see Catwoman being more like Harvey's role .She is in the gray area nearly crossing the line Batman tries to redeem her and saves her in a way that he couldn't for Dent.

 

[Wolverine1988]

Did you seriously just compare Blade to anything that remotely has anything to do with Batman?

First off, the first Blade movie was pretty kick ass IMO,

Second, i am talking about turning villains that werent very interesting and making them more contemporary and interesting, Deacon Frost was some old dude in the comics and they turned him into a young man, who was well dressed and pretty intimidating .

Just like if the Villain is Hugo Strange, if Hardy is him, they are obviosly gonna make him more contemporary and more than just some Dr who is obsessed with Batman.

And i just read the summary of "Prey" IT SCREAMS PLOT FOR TDKR, hoping they go that route.

 

[The Demon's Head]

Hugo Strange is the oldest Batman villain. He appeared way before The Joker and Catwoman. People need to show him more respect. He's criminally underrated.

IMO, His best stories are "Strange Apparitions" and "Batman and The Monster Men."

 

[Scorcher7]

I think this movie is gonna have a hard time living up to peoples expectations after TDK and the Joker. Of course Hugo Strange can't compare with the Joker. Who can?

This movie needs to be its own movie and it needs a villian that fits the story. This isn't Spider-Man 3, Nolans not trying to top the Joker by putting in the Riddler and Penguin and Catwoman.

I'm hoping it will be a lesser known villian. It'll give Nolan a little more freedom without all the fanboys whinning (Joker permawhite) and I think a character like Strange is a villian unlike any we've seen so far. Hope this rumor is true.
