Batman: The Dark Knight

[Super-Eggroll]

Either way, it's going to be really hard to write a realistic Batman script with any of the other villains, since most of them are so outlandish. The bar is set so high now that I doubt the next movie will live up to what they did with Dark Knight.

The Riddler is the only one I can think of that would enable them to write as smart of a movie as this one while remaining grounded in reality.

The toned-down Clayface that just had a rubberish face that he could contort anyway he wanted might work as well.

Adding Batgirl or Robin will just open it up to cheese like the previous flicks. No deal.

They'd have to do something REALLY special with Catwoman to erase the stigma she has now (thanks, Halle Berry!).

Pedo-Mad Hatter?

Also: Bale stated in an interview that if they ever placed Robin in the Begins Universe. He's out.

I'd like to see the current goggles-and-catsuit Catwoman in the movies, the one from "Hush"?

No Robin please. None of that.

Killer Croc?

Her outfit was debuted a little bit before Hush.

Don't forget Scarecrow's still running around loose. He was second banana in Begins and a mere cameo in Dark Knight... perhaps they could give him center stage next time.

Except that will mean he's sucked in three movies, and that's too much.

I was really, really hoping they were going to go in a "Scarecrow, after being defeated, looks up to Batman as a "fear totem" of sorts and becomes a vigilante in order to do his frightful will" kind of scenario, but no luck.

Turns out I was just mis-interpreting why he was in that parking garage with the Bats Men.

Source: Media by Numbers
July 23, 2008


Warner Bros. Pictures' The Dark Knight broke another record on Tuesday becoming the fastest ever to cross the $200 million mark in five days! The previous record of eight days was held by three films - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, Spider-Man 2 and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins follow-up added $20.87 million on Tuesday to push its massive total to $203.8 million. That puts it at #84 already on the all-time domestic blockbuster list after just five days.

Right now, the only number we have for international markets is $41.3 million but that will start going up significantly as the movie is opening in many countries Thursday and Friday as well as into August.

So let's recap - widest release (4,366 theaters), biggest midnight opening ($18.5M), biggest opening weekend ($158.4M), biggest July opener ($158.4M), biggest PG-13 rated opening ($158.4M), biggest single day ($67.2M), biggest opening day ($67.2M), biggest Friday ($67.2M), biggest Sunday ($43.6M), biggest IMAX opening ($6.3M) and fastest to $200M in five days ($203.8M).
