Dark Knight v. The Geek
--by Stephen Schleicher
The LA Daily News has an interview with Anthony Michael Hall where he reveals he has a role in The Dark Knight.
“I signed a confidentiality agreement, and I can’t say which part I’m playing because it affects the story,” says Hall. “I can’t give away the suspense it’s a $200 million surprise, and I don’t want to be the guy to ruin it.”
“It’s really a great role. I’m in throughout the whole movie, and I’m really looking forward to working with Christian and Morgan and all these real Hollywood heavy hitters.”
Cool! So who wants to speculate what role AMH will play? In the interview he talks alot about working with Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox) and Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne), so I am wondering if he is one of the good guys? Might be be another WayneTech employee who builds wondrous gadgets? Actually wouldn’t it be great if we could take the young AMH and turn him into Anarky?
I’ll let you talk it up in the comments section.
And while I’m at it, who would win in a fight: 1980’s The Geek from Sixteen Candles, or 1980’s Batman?

My guesses are:
Harold Allnut (crippled tech genius)
Actually, that’s my only guess. Maybe a cameo as the Mad Hatter?

I thought the same thing at first, but that would require AMH to go all hunchback and creepy. Mad Hatter would be pretty cool though…

For some reason the first character to pop into my head was Thomas Elliot a.k.a. Hush.

The Geek as Hush would be some ballsy casting.

AMH as Thomas Elliot would be a really good casting movie - although in light of who the villain and potential villains are - he wouldn’t be a brain surgeon, but rather plastic surgeon who works on Joker and later Harvey Dent…

Or he could be Batman and Bruce’s trusted go-to surgeon for severe injuries.

Wait, I thought Anthony Michael Hall was playing Venom!
Or the Chameleon?

Wrong, he’s Keyser Söze.

I think he will be Jean Paul Valley, AKA Azrael from the comics.
