Way too close to having that "Joker" look, theme about it (you know, the scribble lines and manic stuff, cut out letters, etc) so no way would they ever do anything that close looking to "TDK". The 3rd Batman film will be the Riddler. No doubt about it and, even though I HOPE I am wrong about this, I believe Catwoman will be there as well (yuck). Remember Fox said "Should do fine against cats!" in TDK but hopefully that was nothing more than an homage. I'd HATE to see Catwoman in Nolans' universe but... it may happen. I think they should bring back THE JOKER! Surely someone can do it good enough. The "Dark Knight Returns" fake movie poster is lame.

His character is very close to real life serial killers like David Berkowitz (the son of sam) and the Zodiac Killer. Many serial killers (including Jack The Ripper and The Red Spider) have sent letters to the police and the Zodiac killer sent cryptograms (which where in essence a type of riddle). I think that if Hollywood is willing to take these films to the gritty dark side of real life, they should focus more on this angel and abandon the tacky jump suit wearing, cartoon aspect that Jim Carey brought to the screen. I would love to see a down right evil and twisted serial killer side to the Riddler. I also believe that they are setting up The Mad Hatter for a future movie. If you watch carefully, Batman says that the man Dent is interrogating in The Dark Knight (the creepy smiling guy from the ambulance) is named "Jervis Tetch". This is The Mad Hatter. Lastly, I would love to see all these films come together in to a plot that involves Arkham Asylum. There have been many amazing graphic novels that focus on this (especially "A Serious Place on Serious Earth"). This would be a perfect opportunity for the writers to place Batman against not only a huge cast of badies but also against his own troubled mind.)
