2 Questions. What's your favorite Batman film/What villains would you like to see?

[Deadshot1988]

I've seen all of the Bat films numerous times and the one that I love out of them all is Batman Returns.
Now I really like the Nolan Bat films don't get me wrong, both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were great but Batman Returns has that certain bizarre charm to it that I just love. From the opening were Penguins Circus Freaks open fire on the citizens of Gotham during the lighting of the Christmas tree ceremony to the batshit crazy ending where The Penguin just says screw it and has his "family" try and blow up Gotham with rocket launchers, the movie has my attention from start to finish.

Now my second question, I would really like to see some villains we really haven't seen in live action form like

1. Firefly- If they are going to keep the Nolan approach to the future Bat films, they could easily pull him off as a serial arsonist
2. Deadshot- Another easy villain to use and could help set up a Suicide Squad film
3. Rupert Thorne- More mob bosses can’t hurt and I liked that they showed some of Gotham’s shady citizens in the last two films.

But I would also like to see villains that we’ve seen before but wouldn’t hurt to have another look at like

The Penguin- They could play him off like Joe Pesci’s character in Casino, a no nonsense, gets things done and does whatever it takes to eliminate a problem kind of character.

The Riddler- They could really play off his intellect and make him an equal match for Batman.

Riddler would be sweet. Not a silly Riddler though like the Jim Carrey version. A maniacal, genius Riddler. Someone who outsmarts Batman. Someone who plays games with him. Back and forth. Kinda like Dexter and the Ice Truck Killer in season 1. Or Micheal Scolfield and Alex Mahone in Prison Break. And the Riddler is a good enough character to be the sole villain. Fuck this 3-4 villains in one movie shit. Plus the Riddler I remember was a pimp. He got the womens. Kinda like Bruce!

Hush is a good villain who goes back with Bruce. Personal is always better.

Catwoman? Yawn.

Mr.zzasz or whatever. He was in Batman Begins and could come back. Plus he's psychotic. He reminds me of Cletus Kasady.

Plus he's psychotic.

I didn't know there were any villains of Batman that weren't psychotic. :1orglaugh

Would make no sense sending a sane villain against a nutjob like Batman

I have a hard time calling my fave movie of the pack since 1998. In a way, the first one ('Batman') is great due to she actors. Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Kim Basinger, Jacl Palance... That is awesome

And especially Keaton's way of playing Wayne very suave adds a nice touch, I thin it is essentiall that the actor works that out - the real difference between Wayne and Batman

Of course, some of the later films had some high-end tech that make Batsy more efficient and which we can be sure an up-to-date hero like him would 100% have

I like the two villain vs. two heroes situation. Either classic Batman and Robin, better Batman teamed with Superman or maybe Catwoman etc against, say

for a change Riddler plus Raz Al Ghul. That would be crazy

Hugo Strange would be cool, but if they do a less off the wall Riddler he will probably have many of the same characteristics. For favorite movie, I want to throw out Mask of the Phantasm.

I wouldn't mind seeing Howard Stern play the Scarecrow. But I would prefer a dark version, as opposed to the earlier ones.

The penguin: but not the typical penguin, a 'Heath Ledger joker' type of penguin.
