  9. When your analysis was based on race early on I bugged out. Everything is race today. It doesn't require any deep thought. In fact it's commonly used to demonize so you won't be scrutinized for shallow analysis. Sorry but this cheap hackneyed approach doesn't impress me at all.
    I remember a saying which is well placed here. "Your first mistake was assuming I was one of the sheep."

  11. Is it just me or does anyone else see how bizarre it is that the creators of some these villains based their birth names on their villain names? Do we really think that Edward Nygma woke up one day and though "If only my villain name would be something that sounds like an "enigma"… Oh! Riddler!" Or Harleen Quinzel thought "Oh, my name sounds like a harlequin, that'll be my villain name!"

  12. Yes i liked batmans villain unique psychological prowess n mostly not superpower.. Just a twisted pushed to limit humans… So how do we create superman villain… "make them Always have access to kryptonite"

  14. Just want to point out something, the lip-licking with heath ledger was because he was wearing Silicon lip pieces that wouldn't stay on

    But I love how you turned that into a symptom, it really fits the character-

  15. More than half of u sociologist can't even properly digones an autistic in the first place let alone recognised one walking around in public I should know been to alot of u quacks who can't tell the difference between people

  25. in Batman forever it was originally going to be Robin Williams that would play the Riddler, imagine how that would have turned out. or Patrick Stewart playing Mr. Freeze. Freeze is suppose to be this cold hearted person who just doesn't give two fucks but is willing to do whatever it takes to find a cure for his wife, goals man. Goals.

  27. People keep bringing up the lick/smack thing and I understand why, so I'll elaborate: Yes, it has been said that Ledger did those odd licks and smacks because of his makeup. That behind-the-scenes tidbit is not what we see revealed on the screen. Regardless of how it originated, Nolan chose to keep those behaviors in the movie. What we see on the screen is someone showing signs of tardive dyskinesia. I know therapists who have been bothered seeing that on screen in this particular movie for a number of reasons, whether out of concern for their own clients or because they don't like seeing anything sympathic in the Joker's depiction. They do not look up behind-the-scenes trivia while immersed in the story as presented. We react to what we see. If we go, "Oh, that's just Ledger," the movie breaks the illusion and isn't doing its job. Nolan made a choice to let those actions become part of their Joker.

  29. The reason the joker lick his lips was because the scar his face are fake ones not cgi. He licked them keep them on his face and because they also thought it made him more crazy looking.

  33. The facts are really convoluted, here. Did you even read the backstories of the villains? This information is incorrect.

    The Joker was "Red Hat", coerced into doing a mission, which made him fall into that vat.

    Scarecrow is the way he is because he tested out his gas upon himself. I agree the creation of the gas is a mystery, but that's why he's the way he is.

    The Riddler is actually confirmed to be homosexual, via the Harley Quinn animated series. This explains his flamboyant behavior, though they have over exaggerated it a tad.

    Cat Woman. Selina Kyle. Why wasn't the fact that she was African-American, then Caucasian, over, and over? In the end, she's Batman's alter-ego. Yeah, she robs museums, but whatever. No mention of the fact that she's self sufficient.

    Harley Quinn. She's all over the place. She means to be good, while still being bad, by making the bad guys pay, while being bad to make good things happen. The fact that her character was a psychologist and keeps smiling into the back of her head, makes her one of the GREATEST characters.

  34. His analysis on riddle is on point not only the movies he’s dangerous in the Arkham game series his actions became more deadly then the previous video game going after people Batman cares about riddler is is one of my favorite villains if he’s played right
