Well that was an easy choice for me. Two-face is my second favourite Batman villain after Joker.

Richard Moll was The Riddler in the other stuff!

Win!
You mean Two Face, but yes it was Richard Moll. This guy wins the secret prize!
No he doesn't, it comes up saying it's Richard Moll in the video after they ask :p

Could have still gone for a cop out and chosen Harley Quinn. Unless you made a stipulation that you can't discuss Joker in the debate, which would remove Harleys motivation.

Catwoman probably would have taken it too, though she is perhaps more of an anti-hero.

Batman has always been his own worse enemy. He's created more super villains than any other super hero I can think of, and other than locking them up he's never directly destroyed a villain. Batman has never been the cure, but he has always been able to manage the diseases he comes up against.
Though it would have been kind of a cop-out, saying Batman is his own worst enemy would have been a likely win as well. Because yeah...you look at the entire continuity, Batman really does a lot of counter-productive things.

Penguin is up there, but Bane? Really? He's one of the most boring one dimensional characters in all of comic book villainy. A pale skinned hulk with out the Hulk's quirky sense of humor or any type of connectable personality. Yes he broke Batman's back but otherwise he's almost as bad as Kite man and Crazy Quilt.
Bane is one of the few Batman villains to ever defeat Batman physically as well as mentally, and he's one of the Bat's smartest opponents. He's not just another buff thug.

Raz, The Penguin, and Bane are all better Batman villains than Two-Face or The Riddler.
Scarecrow?

I was sad that the riddler wasn't in the last badman movie myself. still can't understand why one would choose bane over riddler.

As always, the answer is Dr Amanda Waller. I prefer to think of her more as a patriot rather than a villain though...

Marsha Warfield would ROCK that character!

First Bull, now Roz? What's next? John Larroquette playing Mirror Master?

Larroquette would have make a kick-ass 2-face!
Honourable Dan / Sleazy Dan... You know I'm right.
This is now officially a thread about Night Court.
So here we go with the Wheelers...

Oh come on! While you did win with Riddler but if you're going to pick Riddler motivation why not the animated series? I mean he was supersmart guy in this company which the boss had fired him despite it was thank to him who did all the work and yet he didn't get paid more for that. We can relate what it's like to being appreciated and maybe being rip off (since the boss pretty much took his work).

I love pretty much all the batman villains, and you guys had some great points in this episode, on both sides, but I still have to go with Mr. Freeze. Very tragic villain, even by Batman's standards, and I guess im just a hopeless romantic, or I'd probably pick someone else.

(Note: This is just my favorite major villain that most people know. My favorite is still Hush, because that shit was just intense. But he has had like, what? 2 stories?)

Talia Al-Ghul. She had a son with Batman, then sent that son to live with Batman to mess with him. You just know that the coup de grâce will be when she sues Bruce Wayne for back child-support.

Mr freeze in the reboot sure as hell isn't tragic. Nora isn't even his wife. Just the first person cryo frozen and he's obsessed with her.

No love for Scarecrow? That's sad. Well, most of Batman villains are awesome in capable hands. With a good writer even Mad Hatter could become awesome villain. My personal Top3 for Batman villains are:
1. Joker
2. Ra's al Ghul
3. Scarecrow

It should be noted that with villains (and anti-heroes like Punisher or Wolverine) I don't really look at what was written about them. I look at the potential. Why? Because in universe style comics (ones where story doesn't end), certain characters won't ever realize their potential. Wolverine should kill at least half of the mutants by now, he is a little killing machine and it's only shown when he fights some mobs. Punisher should move to supernatural targets but with never ending story you can't kill some major villains (and when someone is killed, he gets resurrected, except for uncle Ben). Joker also hasn't reached his potential. The Killing Joke could've and should've been much more darker which could've and should've resulted in Gordon going bananas. But I'm getting off-topic...
