This is just a little nitpick of mine, but Scarecrow deserves a bigger spotlight in Batman. I mean, the guy can turn your greatest fears against you. In the comics, why is it that the Scarecrow has what it takes to be a main villain, successfully controlling whole story arcs, and yet in the last two films, he barely got any screentime as a villain? He's relegated to support, and yet he would make a FANTASTIC main villain.

More should be done with this character, IMO.

Anyways, discuss my opinion or just shower random bits of fandom to either Cillian Muphy's portrayal of this wonderful villain or the character himself.

Easily the best Scarecrow mask of all time.

Meh. Scarecrow's cool, but he's not utterly fantastic.

Personally, I think his Fear Gas just is awesome, and his techniques make him very tricky to beat.

He's also gorgeous in the movies, and also psychotic. Oddly, I find that arousing appealing.

The new Batman movies were all about meaning and character. the scarecrow in the movie. wasn't any of that. besides nobody wants to see batman cry and pee in fear. would work for a comedy, though.

Behold children, the definition of a truly tasteless reply.
