    Catwoman is boring. Hell, why not Mr. Freeze or King Tut?

    Freeze is the one character I could understand. Or even the Riddler
    Because one of the things that I liked Eckhart as Two-Face was that he wasn't Tommy Lee Jones. Cause Jones sucked.

    Why not Orca. "Grace Balin is a marine biologist who transforms herself into a monstrous orca." Now that be funny. ;D

    They went from Theron to Holmes? Boy, talk about slipping to the bottom rung of the bar-skank ladder. [/stewiegriffin]

    To build off the ending of TDK and kind of the theme of the new Batman franchise ...

    Batman is now painted as a villain. He still does good, he still fights crime, but the public is against him and the cops try to grab him any chance they get. Commissioner Gordon knows the truth and helps Batman out, but he can't control everyone.

    Enter Catwoman. She comes in and bills herself as the new Gotham crimefighter. She takes out a few baddies to get good pub. Really, she's robbing banks or pulling jewel heists herself. Batman knows this and tries to take her out, but he's mesmerized. She takes him out and delivers him to the police. He escapes to confront her. Two-Face can be back as well to be the villain who wants to kill Batman, not just embarrass him.
     
  8. If they bring Two-Face back, I'll be pissed. They already did the whole faking death thing once. It's too cliche for what so far is an amazing franchise.

    I read something where they said they thought the first one didn't do as well at the Box Office because the villians from the first one weren't as well-known to those of us who didn't read the comics or the graphic novel. They said the same was true with Batman and Robin, which, if memory serves, also did not have any of the mainstream bad guys.

    If that's true, they have Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Two-Face and Riddler to work with.

    Loved the Penguin's cackle. Bring him back, Jason Alexander?
     
  12. I can find links showing he wants to do another, but not that he's signed. Do you have a link?
    I really hope they don't bring him back. Two-Face was the only disappointing part of this one to me. It's just such a one-note character.
