Dont you know how to post images?

Anyways, I found this at the IGN boards

It's suppose to be the Scarecrow before he gasses his victims with fear toxin, he's suppose to look much different once a victim gets gassed.

Eh, it's alright. He'll probably look pretty damn good in the movie though.

Wish they stayed with this one though

I just don't think The SCARECROW is an interesting villian and at best, I think of him as 2nd rate and scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to the limited villians in the BATMAN Universe VS Spiderman.. :-k

Well thats alright, all I care about is that the vililians wont be goofy, scenery-chewing hams in gaudy costumes like in the other Batman flicks and instead have much more depth to them which from what I read is one of the things this Batman flick has over the others. You can complain about 2nd rate characters and whatever else you want about the villians but atleast they wont be horribly portrayed like in the other movies, I think Scarecrow is pretty kick ass anyways, dont know much about Ra's al Ghul so cant comment on him.

..woah ...
**/keanu mode**

i like killuminati

bkb?? Scarecrow is an A grade villain. His Rogue Gallery is one of the biggest, only rivaled BY Spiderman. Get to know a character before commenting on it. As far as I know, his rogue gallery is even bigger than Spideys. The character is 70 years old. hes accumilated a lot over the years.

I looking forward to this, but only moderately. WB killed this franchise years ago, and I'm one of the few who doesn't think Batman and Robin was an abomination. It was ok. Nothing more. The last 3 Batman pictures were ok, nothing more , to varying degrees. Only a % of the die hards will be forgiving for that kind of treatment. They can dress this up with yet another new actor as batman, but what's this, 4 different actors in the last 4 movies? That's bullshit, and none of the "new Batmans" have been enough to add anything exciting that could save this tired old dog. I have very guarded expectations for this. I see 150 million made, and nothing that's going to go down as a memorable superhero movie, just a decent one at best. I haven't been blown away by anything I've seen or heard about this movie, and at this point in this series, anything less than blowing the audience away will come up short.

Well thats ok, going in with low expectations is the best and if more people will have the samekind of mind set as you then the better, more people will be impressed if this turns out to be really great. From scripts reviews i've read people are saying this will do to DC films what X-Men & Spider-Man did for Marvel, which was to legitimize the genre again for both fans and filmmakers.

=D> Not only that, but all the BATMAN Villians after this movie will have been exhausted and done to death, provided in the BATMAN BEGINS Sequel, they use The Joker again, which is fine for hardcore comic lovers, but to the general moviegoer, this is the 5th BATMAN Movie in a dead as ass franchise kiled by the last movie, make that last 2 movies.. However, I will still give this movie a chance and see it, if for the mere fact that I can come back and either bury it in my review like I thought I was gonna do with The GRUDGE(Close, but no Cigar) or actually praise it..

atleast yu have a healthy way of looking at it.

and its comforting to know you didn't like Returns either.

you should try watching Batman:TAS and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Brilliant.

Now come on Baba.. I'm healthy and have a healthy way of looking at it, AND I didn't really care all that much for BATMAN RETURNS(Except for Michelle Pfeiffer, come on, how could you not??) I thought the Penguin came off too much like as a Jekyll and Hyde, fish eating freak that's not the way I remember him from the Comics..

no you don't. you comment on things you don't know about. I respect mav because his comments come from an understanding of a character plus the general audience. Your comments come from a general bias.

The joker, penguin and riddler (who by the way is now pretty much a lower A level character) are only known by the common audience because of the 1966 series. No other reason really. Same can be said for Spidey ... how many people know who the goblin and lizard and all are outside of the comic reading and cartoon watching people?? i know them, you know them ..... but you apply your comments to no more than 1 franchise. You continually keep calling the last 2 movies a turd but today finally, admit to returns being not that great either .. shows me that you of all the people have generalized the common perception that most movies have and stuck to them. My respect for you is alive cause atleast your superman concerns seem a bit more valid .... as far as this franchise, the only concern of yours thats valid is people's perception based upon the entire franchise ... no more.

Isnt it sad that the best Batman movie is a Cartoon flick? Atleast imo Mask of the Phantasm is the best Batman movie, I could care less for any of the live action flicks, I thought they were all pretty amature stuff, 89' Batman being the exception.

89 batman was one of the most terribly made movies i ever saw. while watching it, i couldn't help but think how people could like it. sad .. i really shouldn't try to judge things by watchign them 10 years later.

yes, it is sad .. but it makes sense. being The entire TAS (which included the movies) were revolutionary cartoons, a way of making them that were much more mature and less kiddy, yet appealed to all. Bruce Timm and Paul Dini (is it?) got the freedom to do whatever they wanted with it cause it brought in the money it was suppose to. its only when WB decided to have a say in it that it started going down, first by concentrating on Robin more and then the Gotham Knights. But still, Timm was able to keep it up someway.

Its happening again with the justice league. The first 2 seasons rocked and WB stepped in to take away the 2 episode format. and bruce timm still found a way towards the end of the season to bring the third season back on track. really, i would love to see timm and dini be part of the consulting teams for the live action movies.

did you like the Mr Freeze animated movie? i really really loved it. best portrayal of a villain in my opinion.

I hope you get the movie you're looking for. A good Batman movie is a win/win situation for the genre and the audience. I probably feel a little jaded by WB, and have very little confidence in them to pull off the things that other studios can do. I have heard good things about the script, but I don't usually trust those, because anybody that seeks those out is either a total die hard, or somebody who already decided to shit on the movie, and needs to fill in some blanks.

It's not my #1 anticipated movie, but it is still pretty high on my list.

1. Return of the Sith
2. Fantastic Four
3. Sin City
4. War of the Worlds
5. King Kong
6. Batman Begins
7. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
8. Constantine

Well said =D> Though BKB is being biased towards the movie he still is gonna go see it and his exceptions are low so hopefully he comes out becoming a fan.

I absolutely loved Batman: The Animated Series. It was so well done! I would watch it everyday, when I was younger, and I am seriously thinking about buying some of the box sets on dvd. Batman: Mask Of The Phantasm, was also very good. I can't believe they stopped airing the show. I was really sad when they cancelled it. All of the other batman series how, are just stupid, and I don't like the animation that much at all. Batman: TAS was dark, much like the comics, and that's why I liked it so much. Batman is, and will forever remain one of my favorite comic book heros. Here's how I would rate the Batman films.

Batman ****/*****
Batman Returns *****/*****
Batman Forever ****/*****
Batman And Robin **/*****

You know I remember it being on tv before and maybe watching a little bit of it - but never really watched the whole thing nor remember alot about it.

I loved Batman Returns! I thought it was better than the original, and my absolute favorite of the series thus far. Catwoman couldn't of been portrayed any better, and Michelle Pfeiffer was born to play the role, and she did it marvelously. The Penguin was also a great addition to the film, and I thought Danny DeVito did a great job with his role. The special effects were amazing, and I loved the score, and it had a much darker tone than the original, and I loved that about it.

I think it was a good thing it was cancelled. It "almost" outlasted its run. WB started experimenting with it quite a bit and they were still at the top when they went out. Batman TAS existed in many forms though

Batman: TAS
New adventures of Batman and Robin
Batman: Gotham Knights
The Batman/Superman Adventures.

It was a good time to let it go though. They took one of the biggest risks with Batman Beyond and it paid off, which always surprised me. Terry McGinnis was nothing like the old batman. no darkness, little investigation skills, he was more of a front line brawler than anything else, no method at all. It was shocking that he got accepted. I think its cause of the dynamics of the show and guiding of Bruce Wayne that allowed it to, which is good cause it was a good show and the villains, who were also no longer evil geniuses and more fighers were in their own way, good as well.

Beyond ofcourse, was also laid to rest and with good reason. Along came an abundance of DC cartoons and batman was once again resurrected in Justice League (personally, my favorite incarnation of him in many ways).

The Batman show, sigh .. this ones a toughie. most hate it. kids enjoy it. my own feelings are that i do like the show but i absolutely hate what they've done with the villains in it. Changing the villain's stories (clayface and joker and freeze in particular) pissed me off to no end. I like the animation and what not but they really shouldn't have called this a batman show ... oh and no gordon .. sucks.

I looking forward to this, but only moderately. WB killed this franchise years ago, and I'm one of the few who doesn't think Batman and Robin was an abomination. It was ok. Nothing more. The last 3 Batman pictures were ok, nothing more , to varying degrees. Only a % of the die hards will be forgiving for that kind of treatment. They can dress this up with yet another new actor as batman, but what's this, 4 different actors in the last 4 movies? That's bullshit, and none of the "new Batmans" have been enough to add anything exciting that could save this tired old dog. I have very guarded expectations for this. I see 150 million made, and nothing that's going to go down as a memorable superhero movie, just a decent one at best. I haven't been blown away by anything I've seen or heard about this movie, and at this point in this series, anything less than blowing the audience away will come up short.


atleast yu have a healthy way of looking at it.

and its comforting to know you didn't like Returns either.

you should try watching Batman:TAS and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Brilliant.


Isnt it sad that the best Batman movie is a Cartoon flick? Atleast imo Mask of the Phantasm is the best Batman movie, I could care less for any of the live action flicks, I thought they were all pretty amature stuff, 89' Batman being the exception.



did you like the Mr Freeze animated movie? i really really loved it. best portrayal of a villain in my opinion.
You know I remember it being on tv before and maybe watching a little bit of it - but never really watched the whole thing nor remember alot about it.


If you are talking about SubZero, than yes I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a great movie. I didn't like it as much as Phantasm, but it was a great follow up to that film. I thought Mr. Freeze was great in it, and it was entertaining. If I can find a copy of it on dvd I shall buy it. Damn I have a lot of shopping to do. \:D/
