Aaron Eckhart's take on Two-Face was just ridiculously good, he scared the crap out of me. The joker was super cool, but Two-Face is scarier, and could not have been portrayed better. Kudos, Aaron!
I was nine when I first saw The Dark Knight in theatres. I didn't even know about that character who would later become my favorite amongst Batman villains. Best introduction to a character ever.
my father was abusive when i was a kid and i develupt issues but i saw i psycologist and my dad also realized he was wrong so i avoided turning into a monster
Ethan Reuben If you get hit hard enough in the head, your eyeball can pop right out and dangle by the optic nerve. Your eyeball isn't really held in it's socket by much. Just the muscles of your eyelids, brow, and upper cheeks, and it's natural shape fitting within the socket.
Ah, my all time favorite comic book character. Two-Face is one one of a kind... or 2 of a kind? Idk, but I love cosplaying as him whenever I go to cons. Also every con I go too whenever I'm buying merchandise or food I flip the coin and depending on Heads/Tails will decide if i keep buying more or less of those items lol. It always cracks people up. Two-Face always fighting himself and never being completely evil is why I came to really love Harvey. #InHarveyWeTrust
+Miles prower Awesome! It was namely via Tommy Lee Jones' portrayal of him. Now I do coin tosses to make decisions. Like whether to get something or not.
Harvey Dent has dissociative identity disorder (DID), not schizophrenia. DID is a dissociative disorder where a person has more than one personality and alternates between them without intent or recollection. Schizophrenia, on the other hand, is also a dissociative disorder, but it's merely seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling, or smelling things or people that are real only to the person who has it, along with having trouble discerning reality from though. They also have word salads (where you want to say something, but something else comes out), and either a manic or flat affect, which are not usually present with DID. Harvey Dent meets the criteria for DID because he is actually switching to different personalities, not just watching them in his mind.
cellogirl11RW It's right to say that he doesn't have schizophrenia, but I don't think it's disassociative identity disorder, because the personalities are aware of each other. That may be possible in that, but being someone that studied psychology for years, I haven't heard that in that diagnosis. I think he has something, but not DID.
But so confusing, Harvey supposed to be kid age like Bruce but they made him same age as Gorden and they rused it by he supposed to appear after James Gorden became Captain
I like Aaron Eckhart's version of Harvey "Two-Face" Dent. His character was more serious than Tommy Lee Jones version, plus the scar on his face looked more realistic.
The only gripe I had his Character was to short in The Dark Knight movie they should have used him in the Dark Knight rises rather than killing him off.
@@greenhulk1982 Dent could have been The Judge sentencing death or exile instead of scarecrow, it would be pretty loyal to past versions of the character. Real shame they killed him off. So much potential there.
All the stuff Dark Knight lifted from Long Halloween was actually lifted from Eye of the Beholder by Long Halloween. Plus Long Halloween lacks any conflict or good side in its Two-Face, and you could see that take carry through into Dark Knight.
tavi921 Right.... but he exists in a world where a man dressed up like a bat fights crime. So for Dent's purposes, Schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder can be the same thing. It's obviously not in the real world, but in the real world Batman couldn't exist either.
You know the greatest thing about Batman’s rouges, at some point you actually feel sorry for them because they were made by rejection, death, pain, mockery, even life in general and I think that’s what makes his rouges gallery the best
"One man is born a hero, his brother a coward, babies starve, politicians grow fat, only man are murdered, and chilly co-legion. Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Luck. Blind stupid simple due da clueless luck!"
If the coin wasn't rigged, why would one side need to be "scarred". One adaptation of the story is that the coin WAS rigged (ie, a two-headed coin) where one "face" was scarred.
+Floymin Yeah, this video got that part entirely wrong. The whole point of Harvey's traumatic childhood was that as a kid, he thought his dad was playing fair with the coin. As an adult he finally discovered the coin was rigged (i.e. two-headed), and realized he was an idiot to think his dad *wasn't* just beating him for shits and giggles.
Exactly! In Batman Annual 14 "Eye of the Beholder" that was explicit - a two-headed coin "Tails, you've been good, Heads, you've been bad." It was consistently referred to as a Two-Headed Silver Dollar. Half of him hoped it would land Tails, half of him knew it never would. Half of Harvey loved his father, half of Harvey hated him. The beginning of the split personality.
You can also make the parallel that the coin being rigged highlights the flawed system Harvey was a part of. So in a way the rigged coin helps him get his form of justice.
i wish they kept/explored the dual personality aspect of the character in the nolan movie. maybe there just wasnt time, but i feel losing that aspect of the character makes him feel less unique and more like another villain who happened to have a coin.
Two Face is an evil counterpart to Batman: Both have double identities, but Batman's are secret are united, whereas Two Face's are obvious and opposed. He is what Batman could have become if he lacked control over his double identity.
Only that two-face has a mental disorder and batman just have a secret identity. They do oppose in the fact that two-face believes that every person, no matter how good they are, is actually evil while batman believes that everyone, no matter how evil, has potential to do good
What I think is most tragic is how in the Batman Animated Series, TwoFace was depicted with a very beautiful, handsome & pure face which only makes it more sad with his good side stuck to an ugly & despicable personality.
Trivia: Billy Dee Williams was the first portrayal of Harvey Dent in Batman (1989), He was sad that he didn't reprise the role sooner until The Lego Batman Movie as a Easter Egg.
• In “The New Batman Adventures” episode, “Judgment Day.” It even reveals that Harvey Dent’s psyche fragments was in the form of The Judge, a court-themed masked vigilante who appreciates criminals by using extreme measures. Neither Two-Face nor Dent persona are aware of The Judge’s existence within their shared mind, and the Judge is unaware that he is Two-Face, and attempt to murder Two-Face several times. Two-Face also to hunt down the Judge, deciced to kill a corrupt city councilman who supported the Judge to send a message. The Judge is defeated by Batman, and the final scene of the episode shows The Judge putting the Two-Face personality on trial.
Long holloween is my favourite version rlly like the loeb/sale take on the character they do a brilliant job. Some villains they don't do right but him they do perfect.
Hey WatchMojo.com, how about doing some more supervillian origins on Gotham's mobster characters; mainly Salvatore Maroni, Carmine Falcone and Rupert Thorne. I think that would be cool.
Just a quick correction on schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is often mistaken for dissociative identity disorder or DID (aka multiple or split personality disorder) but they are two very different things that, for some reason, have become blurred to most people: schizophrenia is the inability to distinguish between reality and fantasy and the symptoms do include auditory hallucinations but there is still just one person living in one body; dissociative identity disorder is exactly what it sounds like i.e. two or more distinct personalities inhabiting one body. Two-Face was actually diagnosed as having several personalities but the condition was never named (as far as I know) in the comics or any other canon. The best candidate for actual schizophrenia in Batman's Rogues Gallery is the Ventriloquist.
Hm? No mention of The Long Halloween? Still, excellent work. Thanks for the video. As a comic book geek, I appreciate and love this series. My humble suggestions: Alfred Pennyworth's Origins, Hush Origins, Black Mask Origins, Great White Shark Origins, Ventriloquist & Scarface Origins. Thanks.
Two-Face is an awesome villain, definitely one of the best in the Batman comics. It's too bad we never got to see Billy Dee Williams come back as Two-Face, imagine what they could have done with that!
Weird how the last name of the actor who played Two Face in the Dark Knight movie appears in the original comic that featured the character. Sometimes I feel like the universe just can't help itself.
Man, it just makes me sad hearing Harvey's story. Sure, he does a lot of horrible things to people, but there's still a good man inside of him. I can only hope that they can find a way to bring that good man back again
I read that he was the one that decided to play Two-Face over-the-top. According to Schummacher, and also affirmed by the makers of MEN IN BLACK which was another comic-book adaptation he was in, Jones did not take comic books seriously at all, and didn't consider them an art form and so he didn't take his performance seriously. According to Joel he didn't listen to direction and had an ego at the time since he just won an Oscar, and the MIB guys said they had to try really hard to reign him in
What if Bob Kane and Bill Finger created female villainess version of Harvey Dent/Two Face character and that female villainess version of Harvey Dent's female character name was Lady Two Face and Lady Two Face had its human alter ego name was Harviey Dent and what if in this video had created another video and in that new video there was Super Villainess Origins: Lady Two Face
Two-Face is descripted as a tragic villain, so that is how the character should have been portrayed in the 1990s Batman film saga instead of the one that Tommy Lee Jones played in Batman Forever, since he seemed to be more of a Joker-like character instead of a man suffering from dual identities (which I did mention before that in a different time and place, Tommy Lee Jones would have been cast as Joker); not to mention that there was a bit of criticism during a part in the movie when Harvey 'Two-Face' was constantly flipping the coin until he was satisfied with the last coin-toss during the raid on Wayne Manor.
I always love the original Two Face stories from Detective Comics #66 & #80, the character of Harvey Dent was really more sympathetic than alot of Golden Age villains at that time.
I agree,the long Haloween was the best origin story for two-face, it has a great story, despite of all the little Godfather related things in it, which is quite understandable, cause the story heavily Involves the mafia families in Gotham.
Harvey Dent isn't "bad" in the end of that film, he's just a majorly corrupted force for good, I mean TDK did a few new things to make Harvey become Two- Face, but in the comics he's quite different in his brutality, but maybe not as easily understandable as TDK's version. Both versions are different sides of the coin though (pun intended)
Likely because the acid didn't touch anything other than his skin an facial tissue. The vocal chords, tongue, throat and trachea were likely untouched or at least mostly intact.
IIRC, yes, it's true. It was the result of the doctors in Arkham Asylum trying to cure him from his psychotic dependence of the coin by introducing him to more complex methods of decision-making (I think later he used cards or something). Didn't work and didn't last for long.
David Goyer said in an interview that Two-Face was going to be the main villain in the third installment with the second movie ending with Joker throwing acid in Dent's face. But yeah I would have loved to see more of Eckhart's portrayal.
Harvey Dent also had a daughter who joined the original Teen Titans. Her name was Duela, and her heroine name was "The Harlequin". Ironically, she dressed like the Joker and also wore roller skates. She originally claimed to be The Joker's daughter, but in her storyline, her true parentage is revealed, and Two Face holds her hostage. (This was in the 1970's "Teen Titans" comics series.)
I would say so what to that. Most characters have a back story of either sadness, some event that either turned them into a hero of villain. That is present in DC and Marvel. There are also the occasional Hero that turns villain and villain that turns hero and Anti-Hero (in-between character) as well as The Tony Stark, Green Arrow Riddler types who don't really have a harsh background and just became heroes or villains because they wanted to help, steal or destroy. Oh please, no biases.
One thing i wished they would have kept in Nolan's was the two personalities. It was in no means bad, but i feel that it was such a huge past of two face and that the two sided face and the coin wasn't enough!
Better meaning for understanding: Harvey’s former face = Attorney/lawyer Harvey’s damaged face = Prosecutor Harvey’s third personality = Judge to all solutions and conclusions Host/body = Court house(A name that should be called than two/three face
This is one of the many reasons DC is the best! You can feel bad for their villains (mostly Batman's anyway). The Joker: After learning of his wife and unborned baby dying with a failed attempted at comedy he turned to crime. Mr. Freeze: Lost is wife. Two-Face: Tragic Accident Harley Quinn: Manipulated by The Joker Scarecrow: Tormented as kid Bane: Spent his childhood in prision for a act his dad has done. Lex Luthor: Tragic Accident Killer Croc: Tormented as kid ending up killing the tormenter
Two-Face is one of the greatest Batmanvillains ever and he is also one of my favorite Supervillains :) . He is scary when he flips the coin and you don't know if it is going to be hint or tails .
I love this villain because I love duel personalities and the tragedy of him. I'm sick, however that the writes can't make up their minds with him. One minute, plastic surgery has cured him, the next, he's back to being Two-face. That's what I find most frustrating with comic books. No sense of finality. Even with this new 52 pretty much taking over, they didn't have the common courtesy to finish the storylines of the previous universe

As well as the circumstances he's currently facing to this very day.

it seems like a majority of comic book villains are the result of abusive fathers.
my father was abusive when i was a kid and i develupt issues but i saw i psycologist and my dad also realized he was wrong so i avoided turning into a monster
Two-Face's abusive childhood is one the most realistic depictions of it though.
And the only one with that unique psychological twist with the rigged coin game.
@@SergioBocanegra I am happy for you, my friend.
Yeah thats how it works unfortunately. You will give the world what you were given.
My only problem with the Dark Knight portrayal is.. how is his eyeball staying in it's socket?
Uh, tape...
yeah that's it.
Micheal Polant Sherlock you've done it again.
good point, but I dont see why the burning of the face's exterior would cause the eye to pop out, the socket is still intact right?
Ethan Reuben
If you get hit hard enough in the head, your eyeball can pop right out and dangle by the optic nerve. Your eyeball isn't really held in it's socket by much. Just the muscles of your eyelids, brow, and upper cheeks, and it's natural shape fitting within the socket.

Harvey Dent has dissociative identity disorder (DID), not schizophrenia. DID is a dissociative disorder where a person has more than one personality and alternates between them without intent or recollection. Schizophrenia, on the other hand, is also a dissociative disorder, but it's merely seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling, or smelling things or people that are real only to the person who has it, along with having trouble discerning reality from though. They also have word salads (where you want to say something, but something else comes out), and either a manic or flat affect, which are not usually present with DID. Harvey Dent meets the criteria for DID because he is actually switching to different personalities, not just watching them in his mind.
cellogirl11RW agreed, there's a clear fine difference.
I think what Watchmojo meant is that Harvey initially had Schizophrenia which evolved into a personality disorder after his accident.
cellogirl11RW It's right to say that he doesn't have schizophrenia, but I don't think it's disassociative identity disorder, because the personalities are aware of each other. That may be possible in that, but being someone that studied psychology for years, I haven't heard that in that diagnosis. I think he has something, but not DID.
But doesn't DID form as a result of childhood trauma? Forgive me if Harvey Dent did experienced this, I'm watching this video for a reason haha
Thanks
Harvey Dent appears in Gotham. He finally appears.
But so confusing, Harvey supposed to be kid age like Bruce but they made him same age as Gorden and they rused it by he supposed to appear after James Gorden became Captain

I think many confuse schizophrenia with multiple personality disorder.
Two-Face has been written so inconsistently, it's pretty much impossible to give him a consistent diagnosis.
Yes, but being schizo is NOT the same as being DID.
tavi921
Right.... but he exists in a world where a man dressed up like a bat fights crime. So for Dent's purposes, Schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder can be the same thing. It's obviously not in the real world, but in the real world Batman couldn't exist either.
He seems bi-polar to me, but certainly not schizophrenic.
rose novel That is always a possibility.
They better have two-face in one of these new batman movies
yup.

What I think is most tragic is how in the Batman Animated Series, TwoFace was depicted with a very beautiful, handsome & pure face which only makes it more sad with his good side stuck to an ugly & despicable personality.
I'm surprised the DCAU's twist on him never featured anywhere else: his third personality as The Judge
This is literally the only narrator I can listen to from this channel
Two Face shows us why probability is important in life.
Trivia: Billy Dee Williams was the first portrayal of Harvey Dent in Batman (1989), He was sad that he didn't reprise the role sooner until The Lego Batman Movie as a Easter Egg.

Having a dual personality is not schizophrenia. That's a common mistake.

Hey man, you almost forgot that Billy Dee Williams played Harvey Dent in the first Tim Burton Batman 🎥 1989, plus he was not two-face.
Two face is like a ying yang polar opposites yet the same like batman and joker
In Batman the Dark Night, he didn't get acid splashed on his face. He caught on fire.
Knight . also not comic canon
when he was tied up a can of acid was spilled and soaked one side of his face, the fire had nothing to do with it
+DragonTaco7 dude it was gasoline not acid thats why half his face goes up in flames
+DragonTaco7 yes,that was gasoline, just watch the scene again.
huh, I always thought it was napalm

I'd call him more of an Anti hero

I always love the original Two Face stories from Detective Comics #66 & #80, the character of Harvey Dent was really more sympathetic than alot of Golden Age villains at that time.
i have a feeling that when his coin lands on the burnt side that is when two-face takes over
They should have used "The long Haloween" as their info story, It's really good.
I agree,the long Haloween was the best origin story for two-face, it has a great story, despite of all the little Godfather related things in it, which is quite understandable, cause the story heavily Involves the mafia families in Gotham.
Harvey Dent isn't "bad" in the end of that film, he's just a majorly corrupted force for good, I mean TDK did a few new things to make Harvey become Two- Face, but in the comics he's quite different in his brutality, but maybe not as easily understandable as TDK's version. Both versions are different sides of the coin though (pun intended)
LONG HALLOWEEN came after "Eye of the Beholder." Many of its story points were holdovers from that earlier tale.
Reid Mason Not many, I still understood the Long Halloween and what was happening, and when I read it the only other comic I'd read before was Hush.
Likely because the acid didn't touch anything other than his skin an facial tissue. The vocal chords, tongue, throat and trachea were likely untouched or at least mostly intact.
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain
IIRC, yes, it's true. It was the result of the doctors in Arkham Asylum trying to cure him from his psychotic dependence of the coin by introducing him to more complex methods of decision-making (I think later he used cards or something). Didn't work and didn't last for long.
"TWO guns bitch!!"
David Goyer said in an interview that Two-Face was going to be the main villain in the third installment with the second movie ending with Joker throwing acid in Dent's face. But yeah I would have loved to see more of Eckhart's portrayal.
He flips it two times, once for the dude in the back, once for the driver...But still my favorite quote.
One of the very few times that the Orgin in a movie is done better than the comic
I wish they'd touched more upon his tragic childhood though
One of the best villians ever created.
So he has 2 personalities.
first and great video love how you cover the villians and heroes
Harvey Dent also had a daughter who joined the original Teen Titans. Her name was Duela, and her heroine name was "The Harlequin". Ironically, she dressed like the Joker and also wore roller skates. She originally claimed to be The Joker's daughter, but in her storyline, her true parentage is revealed, and Two Face holds her hostage. (This was in the 1970's "Teen Titans" comics series.)
two-face is my most favorite character, together with joker, bane, scarecrow and riddler
Two Face is one of the greatest Batmanvillans of all time :) . I love Two Face in the movies and Richard Moll's voice in Batman TAS ! :)
I would say so what to that. Most characters have a back story of either sadness, some event that either turned them into a hero of villain. That is present in DC and Marvel. There are also the occasional Hero that turns villain and villain that turns hero and Anti-Hero (in-between character) as well as The Tony Stark, Green Arrow Riddler types who don't really have a harsh background and just became heroes or villains because they wanted to help, steal or destroy. Oh please, no biases.
I don't know why but I always get Two-Face and Black Mask mix up.
One thing i wished they would have kept in Nolan's was the two personalities. It was in no means bad, but i feel that it was such a huge past of two face and that the two sided face and the coin wasn't enough!
Two face is my Favorite Batman Villian.
Two Face in TDK had 2 Hospital scenes, Ramires scene, Maroni scene, Pub scene & finally the ending scene.
He had a decent amount of a time tbh
Better meaning for understanding:
Harvey’s former face = Attorney/lawyer
Harvey’s damaged face = Prosecutor
Harvey’s third personality = Judge to all solutions and conclusions
Host/body = Court house(A name that should be called than two/three face
Batman TAS was just too freaking awesome for words.
This is one of the many reasons DC is the best! You can feel bad for their villains (mostly Batman's anyway).
The Joker: After learning of his wife and unborned baby dying with a failed attempted at comedy he turned to crime.
Mr. Freeze: Lost is wife.
Two-Face: Tragic Accident
Harley Quinn: Manipulated by The Joker
Scarecrow: Tormented as kid
Bane: Spent his childhood in prision for a act his dad has done.
Lex Luthor: Tragic Accident
Killer Croc: Tormented as kid ending up killing the tormenter
Two-Face is one of the greatest Batmanvillains ever and he is also one of my favorite Supervillains :) . He is scary when he flips the coin and you don't know if it is going to be hint or tails .
The long halloween has my favorite version
I love this villain because I love duel personalities and the tragedy of him. I'm sick, however that the writes can't make up their minds with him. One minute, plastic surgery has cured him, the next, he's back to being Two-face.
That's what I find most frustrating with comic books. No sense of finality. Even with this new 52 pretty much taking over, they didn't have the common courtesy to finish the storylines of the previous universe
but...the animated series just nails every character they ever casted :D
Yeah i really wanted to see more face time on 2-face(pun intended) because it looked so well designed and they showed him like 3 times in Dark knight
It's wierd to think this video is 5 years old.
