How about instead of just listing people we would like to see in it (go Riddler), we take the person who we want and explain how they will fit into the story that would occur after Dark Knight.

Riddler:

After failing at telling who Batman is on TV, Mr. Reese decides that it would be more fun (and torturous to the people who tried to kill him) if he left riddles all over the place about who Batman really is.

Bain (don't care much for him but this would fit him in nicely):

After multiple failed attempts to capture Batman, Some of Gotham's police goes behind Gordan's back and hire Bain to capture him, not completely understanding what Bain is really capable of.

Any other ideas?

Catwoman begins as a hero-like figure and helps out Gotham, but is gets mad about Batman overshadowing her, even when he is a criminal. She decides to try to turn him into the cops.

You know what I have yet to see in the recent superhero movies? - A villain that lasts more than one movie. :-\ I have a feeling they will do this with the Joker, though.

I read this and once again thought "didn't I do that forever ago in this thread"?  So I looked back and yes I did.  If people are coming to a discussion late, I would suggest reading the whole thread before posting to it.  Otherwise it does look a bit silly :)  I'm not upset at all, just posting friendly advice.

I think that catwoman or poison ivy would be the next logical villainess.  With the death of Rachael, Bruce Wayne has now lost his first love.  This will make him susceptible to a rebound relationship that could prove unhealthy in the long run.  Therefore having a female evil character would be more dangerous at this point in his life than any other.

It also would present the opportunity for a clear comparison of how the death of Rachael can turn one person bad (two-face), and another person better (Batman).

However, just looking at the last few pages, people were just listing villains they want to see without inserting a story of how it would play out after Dark Night.  Thanks, though :)

Rachel will be the next villian. Catwoman. DUN DUN DUN!

If Joker can turn Harvey, then it's possible that somehow she lived by evil means.

If you really watch The Dark knight and think about all they do with Joker, my friends and I all believe that the original plan was to have Joker come back in the third movie and create so many problems that the city cries out for Batman to return.  However, as we all know Heath Ledger's tragic death may have put a huge stop to this plan.  I really believe that if Heath was still alive we would see the return of the Joker with a partner.

However I think Bane now is a very likely villian and I would feel that if they have Bane they would have to have a Robin so that when Batman is injured (broken back like in the comics) there is a fill in Batman for a time.  I don't think Robin should be as young as normally portrayed but instead a college student age. Of course he would need to have a better costume, or maybe they simply bring in Nightwing and just skip the Robin part.

Riddler would be fun too as long as they keep him dark.

He's a wimp, so I'm guessing so.

My brother thinks the young boy that sees Batman spying & hangs out with Rachel during the climax of the first film will probably play out to be Robin.  Seems like a 2010-2012 release would make the boy old enough (Robin was introduced at an age around 8th-10th grade).  However, Nolan's dislike of the character will probably negate that logic, and the purpose of Robin was to bring in a younger audience -- hard to do with a PG-13 series.

As long as he's killed mid-way through
and I really hope we get either the Penguin or Mr. Freeze

The next villian should be Superman.

I have actually enjoyed the cartoon versions of Batman Meets Superman, from the Batman Animated Series. Bruce Wayne comes to Metropolis and dates Lois Lane. Superman uses his x-ray vision to find out who Batman really is. Batman uses a tracking device to learn Superman's secret identity. The plot twists and rivalry were quite fun to watch.

I also liked the episode when Bruce was captured and they brought in Superman to try and pretend to be Batman (Robin: "Kick the table over".  Superman dressed up at batman kicks the table and it shatters against the opposite wall).

I've completely forgot about Mr Freeze (besides seeing the big ice cube a few pages back).  His story can definitely be made dark (maybe his wife is one of the people who was in the hospital that Joker blew up).

Except they got everyone out of the hospital. I could see a dark Mr. Freeze, but I don't think he'd lend himself to the new direction as well as Bane or Riddler or Ra's Al Guhl (via lazarus pits) or even Poison Ivy.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Tru dat.

Even though I don't care much for Bane, I think he would make the most sense with how the last one ended.
