We all have our personal ideas for the Batman reboot. I thought about it, and I came up with the PERFECT villain duo for the reboot (or one of it's sequels):
AND
!!!
I sit back and wait for your praise.

That's why we have Riddler in another movie.

Thanks.

Interesting idea. Though I'm not sure the two characters could carry the film. Plus, it'd involve a lot of CGI characters and that doesn't always turn out so well...
You do have a point about CGI.

@TheCannon: Like I said I wouldn't put two animalistic brutes in the same movie, man-bat is smart in his human form but not in his beastform, non-comicbook readers will also think they'll ripped Dr. connors origins off.
They're going to think DC is ripping off Marvel no matter what they do in any movie.
The ridder/pengiun using croc as muscle or talia using the man bat to make her own army of league of assassin man bats I'd be happy with but to much CGI and fighting and not enought detective work doesn't float my boat

Yeah, biggest issue I would have would be the CGI.
Not to mention, Croc and Man-bat aren't terribly interesting characters. They would make the story all about action, instead of drama. Not a great movie idea.
It could work actually, i think that the characters could be written in a very relatable way, something like both of them being confused and angry because of the animals inside of them taking control of their bodies, so they put all the blame in Batman because they're lives are falling apart and they need some one to blame. Or, if they go with Killer Croc being that way all his life, he could manipulate Man-Bat into attacking Batman, that could also show a more intelligent side of Killer Croc and show people that he isn't just some brute. But personally, i want Hugo Strange or Hush, somebody that challenges both Bruce Wayne AND Batman.
I would like them to try and redeem The Governator's pathetic excuse for a Victor Fries. Hell, Nolan was able to redeem Bane from the same "film" (notice the quotations.) Curse you Schumaker!
Anyhoo...I think Mister Freeze and Hush would be pretty cool. Not working together mind you, just in the same movie. Kind of like Ra's Al Ghul and Scarecrow. Or Joker, Two-Face and Scarecrow. Or Bane, Catwoman, Talia Al Ghul and....Scarecrow. I'm beginning to see a trend....
I don't know how I'd feel about a team up, but I could get behind them being in the same movie. A nice match of brute force vs. Batman's wit. They'd probably have to just be pawns to a bigger mastermind, though.
How about Riddler and a Two-Face duo all joking aside I would actually like to see Hush, Penguin, or Owl Man (Lincoln Marrch) I know an Owl Man would be unlikely but hay I guy can dream, reason being is because not only are they Batman villains there also Bruce Wayne villains too in a since.
The Riddler (voice actor from arkham city)
and
ZSASZ!!!!!!!(voice actor from arkham asylum)
(my fav villains)
@The_jackolantern: Well for batman to use his mind... How about the riddler if you want that route. I chose zsasz and riddler because riddler was my favorite as a little kid, now older my favorite is zsasz

I think Mr.Freeze deserves to be redeemed after that abomination that was Batman and Robin. Mr.Freeze would be the perfect villian because he has a realistic motivation, People like villians who they can somewhat understand why they're doing the things that they do.
Would love to see Mr Freeze in a new movie.
And Black Mask (not really in the same movie though)
(Alternate Universe, Batman has been Batman for 4 years now, he has been fighting gangs mostly black mask and red hood)Black Mask and Red Hood (Joker) I could see it as a three part movie, Black Mask and Red Hood would have a gang war, Batman would have to stop it and eventually the two gangs will fight in a abandon warehouse where Black Mask's gets away from the scene and the police come shooting the Red Hood in his knee as Batman scares him enough to jump off, the movie would end with Red Hood becoming Joker and the next movie would start off with Batman fighting some of Black Mask Villains the night after and Joker uses a super glue to stick a black mask on his face to represent him Joker then blows up the building and leaves to fight the Batman the two fight Batman takes down the Joker easily and sends him to Arkham while Black Mask comes about making a plan with two-face(who is a victim of the red hood), Riddler and Bane(without venom) to take revenge on Batman and Joker. The Next movie would have Batman defeating the foes and Batman giving up the mantle and soon Owlman arrives and Batman must be Batman again to fight him,
For Red Hood to truly work, the audience would have to be invested in who he is and why. I don't think you could get that from just launching him into a movie.
Villains I'd like to see in a new Batman movie would be Scarecrow (not like in Batman Begins. I'd love to see him confront Batman with the death of his parents, like in Arkham Asylum), Freeze, Mad Hatter... Also, Grundy would be quite interesting. Not really sure how the duo's should be, but if they would be able to do something with those, I'd be happy!
What also would be cool: If they would be able to make The Long Halloween and Dark Victory into a movie.
Here's what I'd like to see:
(Four movies)
Movie 1: Penguin/Killer Croc duo (at some point), main villain would be Hush, and there would be a small cameo appearance of Prometheus
Movie 2: Professor Pyg + Red Hood, and I'd like to have a mention of Hush escaping from prison as setup for his appearance next movie (more on that later). As far as the main villain goes, I'd like to see Bane or Scarecrow
Movie 3: Hush would reappear in his final form: The Batzarro! Not Batzarro like in the comics, but more like the Arkham Knight - like a militarized soldier trying to mock Batman's costume, only in this case Hush is mocking both Wayne and the Bat (prolly cause he knows Secret Identity). Side Villain/Villain employing Hush would be Court of Owls.
Movie 4 / Epilogue movie: Set 20 years in the future, Wayne Enterprises went broke and Bruce got kicked out of the company to save it, so now he lives on a farm. By now, Alfred has died of old age and Bruce is begining to get into his sixties. A mafia group, led by a young version of KGBeast, wants him dead, so they send mafia after him. Bruce kills people in this movie, main villain is KGBeast's mob and also an old man version of Bane, and finale shows Deathstroke still in action but with a rebreather required. He finishes off KGBeast, and if there was a sequel to this movie it would be about Nightwing becoming Batman in the absence of Bruce Wayne.
That's my ideas, anyway.
Let's see now, I'm talking about 4 films.
1- little origin story in form of flashbacks like in MoS, villain Red Hood + Clayface
2- one year later, Batman still a myth, villains penguin+man-bat, movie ends with Bruce watching the graysons die and dick mourning them.
3- batman and robin together, Gordon knowing about them, flashbacks of his adoption, training, etc. Villains joker+ dicks killer+crime family. Have the joker elements from batman under the hood.
4- starts with Bruce talia affair, robin becomes distant to batman, villains ras al ghul+ league of assassins+riddler. Barbara feeds batman info under name of oracle, Ends with dick becoming nightwing and Alfred dying, Bruce remains as Batman and adopts Jason Todd who he met during LoA attack.Barbara getting inspired and holds costume
The perfect chronology, with great actors, great music, great editing,great costumes,great special effects on CF and MB, and zack Snyder or someone as awesome as him.
PS: I created this prior to BvS but still think it is awesome..
My personal choice would be a Penguin and Clayface combo. Penguin could use Clayface to infiltrate rival gangs and high society to collect information. This would allow him to attack the gangs and blackmail judges, cops etc. Batman has to find a way to figure out how he's doing it and find a way to take them down.
@thecannon: I like lesser known vilains:
