The Mad Hatter is an unusual man named Jervis Tetch who becomes Gotham's strangest trap-setter.
Modeled after the literary character Mad Hatter from Lewis Carrol's logic-puzzle novel Alice in Wonderland, Tetch represents Gotham City's criminal claustrophobia.
The Mad Hatter (DC Comics) wears bizarre and elaborate hats and seems to believe that criminality is somehow linked to prestige, which makes him a great symbol for insanity and a prime candidate for a new Batman film super-villain.
The array of Batman films has given us a nice social portrait of criminal insanity, and various talented actors such as Jack Nicholson (Joker), Jim Carrey (Riddler), Uma Thurman (Poison Ivy), and Tom Hardy (Bane) have nicely captured the eerie mania associated with Bat-villains.
So this thread is about film ruminations.
1. Who should have played the Mad Hatter in a past Batman film, replacing the ones cast?
2. Who should play the Mad Hatter in a future Batman film, and who should direct?
Here are my responses.
PAST: Dustin Hoffman as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's "Batman Returns" [1992], replacing Danny DeVito's Penguin.
FUTURE: Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in a Batman film directed by Steven Spielberg.
