One thing that bugged me in The Dark Knight Rises was the fact that the Joker wasn't mentioned nor heard of at all. It was strange due to the fact that the amount of chaos the Joker caused seemed to just be forgotten about. I respect Nolan's decision to not included the Joker due to the tragic death of Heath Ledger but at the same time WB's is selling shirts, action figures, hats, and other items that have the look and likeness of Heath (way to respect the dead WB's, hope Heath's family is getting a cut of that). Here is my idea of a small little cameo of the Joker in The Dark Knight Rises.
We're in Arkham. Bane is looking over a list of the more violent inmates to see which ones would be best to keep or let free. They go up to the Joker's cell. They never say this is the Joker but they tell you of this criminal's actions and crimes. Bane says to his henchmen, "We must keep order. There is no room for chaos in our plan and due to his chaotic history he is best kept where he is now." Bane and other leave to check on another cell but they show you inside the cell of the person they were talking about. It's dark inside the cell with a small amount of light. The criminal goes up to the light and you see smile with the white paint and red lips. End scene.
Thoughts on this?
