    What Plot?

    What Villain(s)?

    What Actor(s)?

    I want Two-Face played by Benicio del Toro! Plot: Bats's inner struggle of trying to save an old friend from himself.

    And Two-Face should be rediculously cunning and cold blooded. Not how Tommy lee Jones did it. No dis to Tommy.

    Yeah, The Long Halloween is about a murderer who kills someone connected to the crime families on each holiday, starting with Halloween. It centres around the relationship between Dent, Batman and Gordon. I just love the way Dent slowly spirals away from the path of justice in everyone elses eyes but you're never quite sure if he actually did. It's good. Read it!

    I've had that experience. Poor guy had to leave the theater halfway through.

    Long Halloween would kick ass, Del Toro as Two Face sounds great that dude can act but I think they already cast a Harvey Dent in this movie so they'll probly stick with that guy. Based on that I'm guessing the next one will have Two-Face and probably a couple others. Clayface would be awesome too, the pyro inside me would love to see Firefly even if he gets minor character treatment like Mr. Zsasz did in Batman Begins.

    Its funny after seeing Batman Begins I feel like they can do no wrong and I'd be happy with whatever plot or villains they choose, whereas other franchises like X-Men I almost don't want characters to be in the movie out of doubt that they'll do them justice.

    I don't think Long Halloween would be a feasible movie. Way to many cameos not enough Benecio Del-Two Face screen time. But elements of it could be a part of the script.

    I think they'll take the best of all the stories and make something even better. I have great faith in the current run, especially now they've got rid of Katie Holmes snoopy dances

    I'd like to see a Batman movie where he does detective work. Like mind games with the Riddler... and throw in some action scenes so it doesn't get too boring.

    Yeah, cause they did in the recent set of films, Harvey Dent was played by Billy Dee Williams in the first movie and Tommy Lee Jones later. Aparently the mob did more than splash his face with acid.

    I would love to see either Long Halloween or the Killing Joke. Of course the later will probably nevr happen and a few more characters would need to be introduced.

    What happened with that is Billy Dee signed in as Dent with the promise a sequel with Two Face would be made. But when time for Two Face to shine the director and production had changed hands and they said they wanted an actor with more "notoriety" aka "not minority" and Billy Dee had to b cashed out a percentag because of his initial contract.

    Acid indeed.

    Kind of a shame, I think Tommy Lee pretty much spent the whole movie doing his best impersonation of Jack Nicholson doing the Joker.

    I can't read any dialogue of Lex Luthor's anymore without hearing Clancy Brown's voice.

    hmmm...

    yeah but only if it was done well...

    personally for a batman movie (or movies) i'd love to see NoMan's Land done over 3 movies... they wouldn't be able to do it for a while in the movieverse yet though because it uses so many of the batman universe villians and other characters...

    it would be amazing though to have it done streight from the book... (written by Greg Rucka... chack it out if you haven't)

    that would be ana amzing set of films...
