Hmm. I like the idea of this PTSD-enriched version of Batman. I wonder if the guys making this movie can make all of the other members of his rogue's gallery really shine without just making them The Joker in a different costume, and I don't know if the male lead can really carry a film like this without being unintentionally hilarious. We'll see I guess. [Reply]

Would be cool. I know they will have joker for pattinson down the line but definitely give me more of his rogues gallery. So stoked to see Riddler and Penguin in this and not be really silly. [Reply]

Batman and Spiderman both have so many great villains I would love to see them more. [Reply]
Joker will definitely be in the trilogy at some point.
Two-Face will likely be in it also.
There’s a lot of speculation that the Court of Owls will be the big conspiracy that the Riddler is alluding to in this movie. The card that he leaves for Batman even has an owl on it. [Reply]

It's crazy that we've basically averaged two villains per Batman movie for the last 30 years and still haven't seen Clayface, Killer Croc, Mad Hatter, Zsasz, Hush, Black Mask, Deadshot, Deathstroke, Red Hood, etc. [Reply]

I didn’t realize Arnold from Westworld is Gordon. He’s great man. Adds to the creepy factor. His voice is unsettling.
I just checked the cast on IMDb - Andy Serkis is playing Alfred. That seems kind of odd.
I wonder if he'll refer to Master Bruce as "his precious"? :-) [Reply]

For a while it was rumored that Mad Hatter would be in this movie. He still very well could be.
Zsasz was technically in Nolan’s Batman but it was a cameo.
I would love to see Deathstroke. That’s the one I need to see in this trilogy along with Joker and Two-Face. This universe is too grounded for Clayface or Killer Croc unfortunately. [Reply]
One other thing. The Riddler appears to be wrapped up a lot like Hush. They kind of combined the two IIRC in the recent animated version of the Hush story. They also hint at a connection between the Riddler and Batman in the end of the trailer. Maybe they do something similar in this movie? [Reply]

I'd like to see them fully developed. Every Batman is going to have to have a Joker, but I'd like to see a fully realized single villain rather than a few fluffs for him to fight. [Reply]
