    Were you the one who was complaining about not being warned enough that something was a spoiler despite it being spoilered?

    What the hell was so bad about Batman? You guys are being too elitist if you say it's garbage. Batman and Robin was garbage. Batman and Batman Returns were at least good movies.

    No, they really weren't.

    Yes. I just didn't think it was going to be a huge spoiler because of how willy nilly people use that tag, and usually realspoiler is used for that kind of stuff. It's not a big deal though, it's not as if I called the guy who posted it an asshole as it was my fault. It just bugged me.

    And I don't see how that has anything to do with my opinion on how the direction of the series should go.

    Yeah, I thought Jim Lee was the one who came up with the new goggles design

    feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though
    Hell no son

    that was Darwyn Cooke

    well, it's a good design anyhow

    if they do involve Catwoman in the new movies I think they should use it

    Batman: Hush was great in that it's the premise for the best Batman fighting game that doesn't exist.

    Why is it significant that Jack has Joker printed on his golf balls instead of his name? Is there some plot point I'm forgetting? I don't want to sit through this garbage.

    Um... Jack Nicholson plays the Joker in Tim Burton's Batman? It's his character.

    He enjoyed playing the character so now he orders Joker printed on all his golf balls?

    It's not very complex.

    It is true, you should probably telegraph what you are spoiling if it's actually a spoiler. This is common courtesy.

    Though I do wonder what the story will be in the third movie. I'm guessing Two-Face and POSSIBLY Penguin will be the central villians, but even moreso im wondering what the character arc for Wayne/Batman will be. In BB it's the creation of Batman and Wayne's purpose for doing it. In TDK i'm guessing he will face defeat or destruction, as the symbol getting torn apart in the teaser implies that. So that just makes me wonder not only what the title will be in Batman 3 but what the character development will be.

    Well they can't really do Croc King, ClayFace, ManBat, or Mr. Freeze. Now, some good selections would be The Riddler (although you need a lot of time to develop his crime plot), Bane, or Lady Shiva.

    With the style they already have going (very dark and moody), it would definently be interesting to see Riddler. I could only ever imagine him as the crazy cartoony guy or Jim Carrey's version, which I liked a lot, but would obviously never work in the new series. But there are probably versions of him out there that i've never seen.

    How can I be sure it's not actually a dumb joke or reference that's not worth the risk of spoiling a major plot point anyway?

    I guess I can't.

    Well, unless it's in something like this thread, where I don't care about spoiling it. Then I can be sure by reading the spoiler.

    I'd love to see The Riddler in the third movie. But I'm like you and can only imagine the cartoon Riddler. It wouldn't be to hard to make him darker though.

    Yeah, actually after watching some clips of him from the animated series he wasn't as crazy as I remember. But I still have a hard time picturing him as a compelling villian for the third movie.

    I think 3 will feature the Joker in at least a small role.

    And then just mainly twoface

    since when do we need 2 villains anyway?

    No, it's just that they only way I can see robin being introduced would be some orphan kid somehow stumbling upon the batcave, maybe getting the idea to sneak around the richest man in gothams property to steal some stuff, and then being adopted by bruce wayne to keep him quiet and through constant bugging given some sort of support position to help him, by maybe giving him directions and doing survalliance or something in the bat cave.

    I mean, in the semirealistic apporach they're taking with these movies, there's no way they'd have batman just say 'Hey, you're 12, but that's no reason you can't ride shotgun and throw punches with people who even I have trouble fighting.'

    But I could see them playing the 'young people are more astute at technology then old people angle'

    Yeah, you can't have the Riddler be laughing and jumping everywhere.

    You got to make him suave. He should always have a glass of champagne in his hand, a bowl hat on his head, and be lightly chuckling.

    Bane or Riddler would be pretty good in 3 but it's impossible to top Joker. I can't help but think of the Spider-Man trilogy in regards to the new Batman series, it seems like it's really hard to make a good third movie.

    I liked Carrey's Edward D. Nigma.

    I was kind of apathetic about his Riddler but I liked his nutty cable-guy-esque insanity from earlier in the movie.

    It's going to be hard to do any more costumed villains after Joker though. I might like to see if they can do Bane, but that's shaky. A female villain might be cool to see for number 3. Ivy wouldn't work (since her powers are near-supernatural). Catwoman could play along if they did a theme around the gray areas between righteous and unrighteous with Bats working outside the law and Catwoman only stealing from criminals. It all comes down to what the third movie's theme could be.

    1: Origins, reasons for being Batman.
    2: Repercussions of Batman entering Gotham city, creation of super-villains (Batman might be making some things worse instead of better).
    3: ???

    If you followed the Knightfall story with Bane, it could be really good.
