Realistic | Unrealistic | Black Mask Anarky Catwoman Firefly Ventriloquist and Scarface Two-Face Riddler Cavalier The Mad Hatter Tweedledum and Tweedledee
| Man-Bat Clayface Blockbuster Poison Ivy Cornelius Stirk
|
Here's what I've come up with thus far (none are in any particular order). Which villains do you think would work within the realistic world of Christopher Nolan's Batman? Which villains wouldn't work?

Bane would be doable, but as more of a mini-villian DeadShot And Hush would also be doable since they dont have any real super powers
What about the penquin?

I read somewhere that Nolan didn't like Penguin in regards to his believability, so I haven't included him yet...

I wouldn't rule Oswald out too soon. Maxi Zeuss is also a realistic one, as well as King Snake. Although I honestly don't find these guys that interesting.

Maxie Zeus is, IMO, the craziest person in Arkham, so it would be kind of funny to see him as a cameo character who occasionally shouts random things about "MOUNT OLYMPUS!" and the like So, is it possible that Nolan is just messing with us about not liking Penguin?

There is always the villain that subverts the whole escape from Arkham and mess with the bat... The Great White Shark

It would be the first and ONLY time I'd WANT someone to scream WTF? in a Batman film ;D

A villain I can easily see in Nolan's world is Dr. Hugo Strange. I haven't read Prey, but I know that in the plot, the Mayor has Strange hired as a consultant on the Batman. In the context of a sequel, it would make sense since the police are on the official hunt for Batman. Maybe Strange would refuse to believe that Batman would kill after such a long history of not killing people and Gordon has to keep covering everything up. Then, there's the Coleman Reese issue. Mind you, the police could go to Reese and ask who Batman is. Would Reese tell the truth or keep his mouth shut to cover up the man who saved his life? Let's say he kept his mouth shut. But how silent would he be, though, if Hugo Strange got a hold of him, with plans to torture him? Then you can tie in the story of Hugo Strange knowing the true identity of Batman...

I'm up for Dr. Strange, as long as he isn't the main villain... I don't think "Dr. Strange! Now With Action-Psychotherapy Couch!" would make for an interesting toy. Part of the plot could be the search for Coleman Reese, with the hero and the villain attempting to locate him before the other does.
