Batman Movie Villains Results - Part 2

Alright, after the last post's Nolanized take on villains, the other directors of the Bat-franchise are getting their go! Check out the newest entries below!

Dan Barrett's Schumacherized Penguin

"I imagine Shumacher's creative process going a little something like this: 'Okay, I want to bring The Penguin back from the dead. Somehow I have to make him more colorful though. That's what I love about comics, all of the pretty colors. He's a circus performer right? Carnivals are more colorful than circuses, and Carnival in Rio is more colorful than circuses and carnivals combined! Kids also loved that movie with all of the singing tropical birds. Hey, penguins are some sort of bird right? Bingo! Now he just needs nipples.'"

cmonies' Burtonized Scarecrow

"I focused on the heightened gothic silliness of Burton's work,particularly Batman Returns. The movie was filled with missile penguins and fish eating circus mobsters and resurrecting armies of cats. It had a lot more fun with Batman then it gets credit for so I had fun with this. This Scarecrow I think sticks to the gothic simplicity in Burton's usual designs but has a wackiness to it at the same time. The silliness in a scarecrow pumpkin head that can inexplicably make human facial expressions still mixes well with a creepiness that Burton's Batman contains. And also Burton's love for black made me think he wouldn't hold back in draping Scarecrow in as much as possible.

"I imagine this Scarecrow design would very comfortably fit Burton's usual narratives. I imagine it would just be Crane as a mad psychologist obsessed with bringing fear to the fearless, and Batman is the most fearless of them all, so he would be infatuated with destroying him with it. Maybe mix in some Hugo Strange motivation, with him trying or successfully figuring out Batman's secret identity to exploit his fears. On top of that, the scenes where Batman gets exposed to fear gas could be crazy fun. Bats flying out of his dead parents' mouths! Batman turning into a horrendous Man-Bat in his mind and trying to suck the blood of criminals! Catwoman's body exploding into a hundred flesh eating cats and consuming Batman! Just creepy fun all around."
