Extreme Dark Knight Spoilers Ahead

ShlupQuack · 07-20-2008, 05:58 AM

I made the start of this thread long enough that it would be safe to hover over, but now I'll make it longer, pansies.

This came up in the other thread, so I thought I would make a poll.

So... Two Face: Dead or no?

I don't think he's dead, only because I just can't imagine him being killed off that fast.

I'd like to think that they're not dumb enough to kill off the second best villain in the series, especially now that they're going to have trouble casting the best villain in the next movie. They probably have though.

He definitely needs to live since Heath Ledger can't play the Joker.

Indeed. I think it's possible that they intended for him to die originally, and perhaps included a more definitive death scene or something, but once Ledger died, took that out. You can't lose Batman's two biggest villains in the same movie.

It was clearly stated by Batman that they needed to fake Dents death to prevent Gotham from finding out what their "White Knight" had become. "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Also, despite what happened to Ra's al Ghul, Chris Nolan has clearly made known his disdain for killing off major canon characters.

I have a gut feeling Dent survives.

At least they didn't smurf Two-Face's character up as badly as they did in Batman Forever!

They did not at all state they were going to fake his death. They said they were going to cover up the horrible things he did while they showed him laying on the pavement with his eyes open.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ra's al Ghul wasn't dead though.
