I'm not talking about discussing who'll be in TDK. I wanna know who you think would be perfect for several Bat-characters. It doesn't haveta fit in Nolan's style of film, just what you see as the character on film.
I'll post mine tommorrow.

Off the top of my head... Brittany Murphy - Harley Quinn Patrick Stewart - Victor Fries Alan Rickman - Alfred Jeremy Irons - Ra's Al Ghul Rachel Weisz - Talia Kate Winslet - Poison Ivy Patton Oswalt - Mad Hatter This is fun - everybody should try it!

Personally I could see Depp doing Riddler lol, but I think even Robert Englund himself would do a good job but alas I'm just dreaming. Well I do know one thing Johnny would be a hot Riddler. ;D [/shadow]

Here are just some past ideas of mine:
Talia- Angelina Jolie Catwoman/Selina Kyle- Charlize Theron Killer Croc/Waylon Jones- Ron Perlman Bane- Batista Riddler/Edward Nigma- Robert Englund Firefly- Seth Green Harley Quinn- Christina Applegate Mad Hatter- Martin Short Penguin- Bob Hoshkins Two-Face- Liev Schreiber Mr. Freeze- Peter Weller Robin- Tristan Lake Leabue (in time about 10 years time)
I know I got a hell of a lot more where that came from.

you know for me, i would almost like pretty unknown actors to play any part in the films. One thing about Batman and Robin was while watching i could only think of "thats arnold" and "thats george clooney" and frankly thier performances were not strong enough to get by their reputation (something michelle phfifer did great). Thats why i think Bale does a great job because we only really know him as batman, not as christian bale.

[shadow=green,left,300] Robert Englund would do great as Riddler and I'm not just saying that... if you knew the guy like I did and have met the guy he is very intelligent, cunning, and witty. Great guy, would fit the part nicely. I never really judge a character by looks but personality so Rob would do nicely. Angelina was my choice for Talia as well lol, but I will have to decide my own for the rest of the villains. [/shadow]

great ideas arkhaminmate, i like the man-bat - kevin bacon, i had'nt really thought about that but he could be perfect. alot of the thoughts i've had have already been said like: Mr Freeze - Patrick Stewert, Penguin - Bob Hoskins and Killer Croc - Ron Perlman but how about Dan castellia as The Ventriloquist and Scarface as hes pretty amazing as them on 'The Batman' and can pull off the split personality really well. also Michael Clarke Duncan as Bane, Christopher Lee as Hugo Strange and i would of liked to of seen Hugh Jackman as Harvey Dent / Two Face.

I like the idea of Duncan as Bane, not only is he a fantastic actor but he's the right size & in good physical condition too. I think it could work if they did him like they did in No Man's Land where he's sittin in a bar in a bussiness suit with the mask & then he gets hired & goes into action. Dan Castellaneta is a great actor & he looks the part somewhat so that could work too but I've always liked the idea of Ian McDermot. I never considered Christopher Lee as Dr. Strange, that would definately be great casting, I think I was going for the more recent Hugo in comics look when I suggested Weaving. But Lee's a brilliant idea I never would've thought of that. & I origionally wanted Jason Flyming for Dr. Langstrom because I saw that quality in his portrayal of Dr. Jekyell in LoEXG but I couldn't think of anyone for Jeremiah Arkham so I cast Bacon, he just has this bat-like quality about him. ;D & I think Hugh Jackman would be great as Two-Face, & this is really outa left field but what do you think of Joaquin Phoenix as Two-Face? He was great in Signs & Walk the Line & The Villiage & then I saw this what do ya'll think

thats looks pretty good, i never really thought of Joaquin Phoenix, but after seeing him in 'Gladiator' and then in 'Signs' and 'the village' hes really good at playing different kinds of characters. As for christopher Lee i just felt that he would play an awesome DC villain, and Dr Strange just stuck out.

The Joker-Crispin Glover Dr. Kirk Langstrom/Man-Bat- Kevin Bacon Bane- Batista Great Choices there Arkham, and super cool thread!
I actually looked at your pick for Man-Bat/Dr. Langstrom and thought about it for awhile and started nodding my head and I gotta agree with you on this one. I would love to see a Sci/Fi horror type of Batman film with Killer Croc and Man Bat, and I have never really thought of who would play Man Bat, but I think you nailed it with Kevin Bacon, Awesome! ! ! !
Like you Arkham, I think Crispin Glover was the way to go with The Joker, and no disrespect to WB, Chris Nolan & Co. but I think Heath Ledger is a bad choice for The Joker

Anthony Hopkins would be a great Alfred but I've always seen him as a Doctor esq. character for some reason, praps the Ventriloquest. Arnold Vosloo is an interesting choice for Mr. Freeze. this is comfusing even to me but somehow I can both see him & can't see him as Freeze. I can't make heads or tails of what that means. Praps it means he's an excellent unlikely choice. I don't know, anywho... Rick Ullman would be an excellent Tim Drake, I can't say for Daniel Madger, cause the only movie I've seen him in is X-Men. imdb only says boy on the raft. I'm guessing he's just a random kid in the beach scene. I can't really see Jack Haley as the Mad Hatter though, I can clearly see him in a hat etc, but as far as acting I don't know if he can do it. I'll haveta watch The Bad News Bears again. Christina Ricci's an unexpacted choice but could definately work, she's a great actress. I think I was put off by it at first cause I always think of her as Wednessday Addams. & I have ta say casting Jamie Pressley as Harley Quinn is brilliant, I never would've thought of that. Genious Techno Bat! & so is Kate Beckinsale for Talia & Viggo Mortensen as Ra's. I considered Beckinsale but always liked the idea of Angelina Jolie, but if she where cast against Viggo as Ra's you've got a brilliant dynamic there. If we still had the karma thing I'd send you 10 heroes. Brilliant stuff Techno Bat

He plays in Disney Channel's tv series Life w/Derreck, he does a pretty good job, and I think he is around 11 or 12
He is clearly rememberd as Kelly from Bad News Bears, but recently he has gotten back into the acting game, and has been nominated for a bunch of awards, so that could be a good sign
Thanks Arkham! With Jamie Pressley I thought of some annoying but very sexy, attractive actress in hollywood and Bam I immediately thought of her, and then Jenny McCarthy came into my mind as well.... Again super great thread and I am having alot of fun reading your picks and others and trying to picture each individual in each role! Very Cool! ! ! !

Jen McCarthy'd be great too. Who do you think would be a great Silver St. Cloud? I kinda like Kim Basinger.

Kim might have been a good choice 10-15 years ago, she might be a bit too old right now for the part. But back in the day, who know's. Also if she hadn't played Vicki Vale, I could see it even more, but I keep thinking Vicki Vale when I think of Kim Basinger...
What do you think about Scarlett Johanson or Kiera Knightley for Silver St Cloud?

I would love to see Elisha Cuthbert portray Silver St. Cloud. If anyone is not familiar with her, she is part of the cast of 24 and had a starring role in the 2004 film, "The Girl Next Door".

Yeah, she'd be a great Silver. What do you think about Rupert Thorne? I'm thinking either James Gandolfini or Anthony Hopkins.

How about Robert Costanzo for Bullock? He did the voice for BTAS and I think he has the right look if he wore his signature hat.
What do you guys think?

Post by arkhaminmate on Feb 1, 2007 7:33:36 GMT -5
I haven't seen him before in an actual movie er anything. I'll have ta watch flyboys. But as far as voice goes definately. What about John Goodman. At first I had trouble seein him as Bullock until I saw Barton Fink.

If they kept running with the Batman movie franchise like the James Bond Franchise and if they were to ever introduce Checkmate/Task Force X/Suicide members, it would be great to see The Bronze Tiger, Deadshot, and even Amanda Waller, my picks for those characters would be
The Bronze Tiger: Michael Jai White or Wesley Snipes Deadshot: Orlando Bloom Amanda Waller: Queen Latifah
picks for other Bat-related characters:
Leslie Thompkins: Judi Dench Lady Shiva: Lucy Lui

Post by arkhaminmate on Feb 2, 2007 16:54:34 GMT -5
Bloom's a great choice for Deadshot. I'm also thinkin Ed Norton. I never thought of Judy Dench as Thompkins, great actor.

What's great about this thread is that you can use every single character in Batman's history and try and put and actor/actress to them, this thread rules!
