RUMOR: Is The Villain Of Batman 3... Killer Croc?

Wow thats awesome if its true, I really want to see Killer Croc or Bane as a secondary villain on the movie, with the Riddler as the main villain.

It's not Croc.

interesting theory. could work out like in the joker graphic novel by azzarello. and riddler too

killer croc is sweet but seems a little "far fetched" for nolan.

Dont know if its true but it would be pretty cool

No offense, Skeletor, but I think you're reaching.

I wish New Orleans is really just Metropolis. I dunno just an idea. So then Nolan can connect Batman with Superman. Maybe Batman goes to Metropolis to catch a criminal and we have small easter eggs of Superman. Who knows. Just an idea.

Would be good if they used Killer-Croc from Brian Azzarello's Joker graphic novel. But using this character is extremely unlikely. Besides, they're only shooting in Louisiana for tax purposes, chances are it will have no bearing on the story.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Mark Millar doesn't know shit about this film, why would he?

jazz@ Agree

This just doesnt sound like what Nolan would do? But maybe Croc is side villain in the story like Scarecrow was?

Talia Ghul, Bane and The Penguin(They can make a realistic version of them) and Two-Face are my choices

Jebus, /Film were bored last night I see.

i would love it to be killer croc.

maybe have the riddler as the main villain but have killer croc & bane,as liked hired men to take out the batman.

I think it would be awsome if it were true......but I think i'm just setting my self up for heart brake.

I believe I started the rumor somewhat joking around a couple days ago (Oct 6th) on another site, using the same speculative theories as Skeletor did. :-P I suggested Killer Croc or Solomon Grundy being they both fit in with the swamp setting.

Regardless of who the villain is, I do hope we get some good cemetery and swamp scenes from New Orleans as they have always played a solid part in Gotham's setting.

JET1@ Yes, they are shooting in New Orleans because of the tax incentives, but it is not really a stretch of the imagination to consider they would take advantage of the swamps and setting around the Big Easy when they are there shooting. That doesn't mean it is going to dictate who the villain is, but it's always fun to speculate, just like one can speculate about the Riddler being the villain.

THIS IS CHRIS NOLAN, CHRIS NOLAN...


EVERYTHING HAS TO BE BASED IN REALITY IN HIS "GOTHAM"..IF YOU WERE CHRIS NOLAN AND HAD TO BASE KILLER CROC IN REALITY, HOW THE EFF WOULD YOU DO IT?

DEFORMED MAN SUFFERING FROM GIGANTISM AND A LIZARD LIKE DEEFORMITY OF THE SKIN, CIRCUS FREAK THAT FILED HIS TEETH DOWN TO FANGS?..HOW

IDEAS THAT COULD WORK-
THERES A BODY ART TECHNIQUE CALLED SCARRING OR SCARIFICATION, WHAT IF THE GUY SCARRED HIS ENTIRE PERSON?


AND CHECK THIS OUT, THIS GUY WANTED TO DO THIS TO HIS BODY, FILED HIS TEETH, HAD PROTRUSIONS SURGICALLY IMPLANTED INTO HIS HEAD AND HAD HIS TOUNGE SPLIT LIKE A LIZARD


HAVE THIS DONE ON A GIGANTIC MUSCLED UP BEHEMOTH WITH VICIOUS HOMICIDAL TENDENCIES WITH A PENCHANT FOR SADISTIC ACTS, YOU GOT A KILLER CROC

I'd say all you supernatural fantasy loving clowns are creaming your pants to this news....

However, if it does turn out to be true (which I very much doubt) I reckon Nolan will go with the Brian Azzarello take on the character. It's the most realistic and could fit into Nolan's vision.

umm actually its quite realistic if killer croc just had Harlequin-type Ichthyosis like what they did to reptile in mortal kombat:rebirth here's what i can get off of wikipedia:

Harlequin-type ichthyosis (also known as "Harlequin baby,"[1] Harlequin ichthyosis,[1] ichthyosis congenita,[1] Ichthyosis fetalis, keratosis diffusa fetalis, "Harlequin fetus,"[2]:562 and "Ichthyosis congenita gravior"[1]), a skin disease, is the most severe form of congenital ichthyosis, characterized by a thickening of the keratin layer in fetal human skin. In sufferers of the disease, the skin contains massive, diamond-shaped scales, and tends to have a reddish color. In addition, the eyes, ears, penis, and other appendages may be abnormally contracted. The scaly keratin greatly limits the child's movement. Because the skin is cracked where normal skin would fold, it is easily pregnable by bacteria and other contaminants, resulting in serious risk of fatal infection.
The harlequin-type designation comes from both the baby's apparent facial expression and the diamond-shape of the scales (resembling the costume of Arlecchino), which are caused by severe hyperkeratosis. The disease can be diagnosed in the uterus by way of fetal skin biopsy or by morphologic analysis of amniotic fluid cells obtained by amniocentesis. In addition, doctors can now usually recognize common features of the disease through ultrasound, and follow up with 3D ultrasound to diagnose the condition.
