It's not scarecrow, it's the Arkham games are godlike, I tried finding other cool scarecrow media and couldn't outside of this game, Same with bane. Imagine these guys made a movie
@@pittykitty6503 Now you are missing out, check out the scarecrow from new batman adventures, I believe it is the interpretation that influenced the game design the most.
Best villain ever! "How many more bones will you crush? How many lives will you destroy in the pursuit of what you call justice? You are the product of everything you fear: violence, darkness, helplessness. All that remains is for you to watch, as I drag your beloved Gotham into oblivion."
@@griffingower1883 Here is the thing- Andrade wasn't bad at all as Scarecrow. He did a great job in portraying this fear obsessed villain, but John Noble is just so bone chilling on another level... it's like comparing 'great' and 'incredible'.
Some may prefer his design in Asylum, but I actually like both designs both in Asylum and Knight. But John Noble nailed as Scarecrow's voice, he's sound both scary and badass. :)
A part of me wishes that Arkham Knight was the game in the Arkham series in which Scarecrow made his very first debute, because while his version of Arkham Asylum wasn't bad at all, the two versions of him feel almost completely different from one another, and I must admit that I like the one in Arkham Knight a lot more. Not only does this version has a much better design, but John Noble gives the character such a presence that even if he is not a great physical threat in the game, his voice alone is just so bine chilling and captivating, that you tend to completely forget about it. My only complaint about this version of Scarecrow is that he wasn't the final boss of the game. Yes, obviously Mental Joker was the final threat, but I think that before that, Scarecrow should've had a final "mental fight", like the ones he had in Arkham Asylum. I really wish that instead of all the mental mission against him in Arkham Knight in which he was a towering giant above the city, that there was just one mental fight with him near the end, in which he was like that, and THEN you can have the final mental confrontation between Batman and his inner Joker.
Arkham Knight is just perfect & Scarecrow was so awesome in it. 9 years later this is still so cool. Why do they not make games like this anymore? Arkham games are a treasure
Arkham knight scarecrow was an absolute monster. Killer Croc must've absolutely mutilated his face for him to have gone from a kinda spooky Freddy Krueger guy to a terrorist...
Scarecrow gets injected with the fear toxin and all he sees is... Faramir still alive, smiling at him while Boromir is being pierced by many arrows. 😂 (Cranes voice actor is John Noble, Denethor from the lord of the rings movie.)
Joker is the moral counterpart to Batman, but Scarecrow at his finest is the counterpart to his symbol, and this iteration of Jonathan Crane understood that better than even the clown prince himself, beating Batman physically is meaningless, but a symbolic death? That was the key the whole time “And to the Batman: I already have won: Emptied your city with a vial of toxin and a few threatening words, that’s how little the protection you provided was worth”
Still trying to decide whether to do this or the Gotham is Mine monologue for my extra bit in my school's talent show adding on from just doing The Joker's Killing Joke monologue.
Scarecrow should have been a playable character in Arkham Knight. He would be powered by his feartoxinvalves and his special attack would be waving his arms and going "woowhghwolblbloble"
probably got glass bones after his croc encounter like look at his face im shocked he didn’t fall apart like a lego character the first time bats hit him
The whole gameplay demo before this played was sick too, had a cool glitch/stuttering effect that cut off the gameplay being shown, then transitioned into this. The game directors said they did this because there wasn’t any worse fear at E3 than having your gameplay demo glitch or crash. RIP Rocksteady 😔😔😔
If we could get this guy as the villain for the Batman 2 (another comment) it would be perfect, specifically because of all his villains, this is one of the most terrifying and one that feeds off of fear that feels like it could happen irl
+Laughing Octopus You can adapt your speech, plus he still has some of his lips left. Contrary to portrayals in fiction (mostly), you can even speak without a tongue. You can't do hard consonants right, but you can certainly do well enough to be understood, at least in English. Some languages might be more difficult though, and some easier. Middle Eastern languages for example, use a lot of guttural sounds from the throat, which the tongue and lips don't affect as much. +Ohshiboom No fakes there. Croc messed him up pretty good before he (presumably) got dosed with toxin and ran away. My guess is that's also why he now wears a leg brace like Mad Max, and has a very slight limp. That's probably also why he didn't put up much of a fight in the end, and changed his costume to cover most of his body. Being mauled by a 12 foot monster can be quite difficult to recover from.
Nope. That's high quality plastic surgey. He had hai faced altered into his Scarecrow visage. He litteraly became fear. Even the militia thought Crane looked like someone dig him up.
A bit late, but iirc there is a conversation in the game between militia that says he has had plastic surgery to look like that and that the other militia soldier thought it was a mask
@@jaredgarcia8638 yeah i think it’s canon that he was attacked by croc and in asylum’s ending cutscene he grabs hold or a titan container and goes ashore and gets facial constructive surgery but beyond that, i dont think anything else is mentioned
@@jaredgarcia8638i think so, asylum and city are both definitely canon, knight is most likely also as they are all made by the same developer. The new game will be as well as it is a sequel to knight, with (i think) bruce being unmasked and wayne manor exploding. Origins is probably canon as it is a prequel but i am not an expert
Such a huge shame that Scarecrow's role in Arkham Knight was overshadowed by the stupid Jason Todd plot. It would've been so much better if Scarecrow had a lot more focus and not taken down in such a lame way.
I love Jason as much as the next guy but yes, The Arkham Knight “mystery” completely diluted the story for a reveal that everyone with a basic understanding of the comics would see from a mile away. Hallucination Joker is fine since he’s a product of Crane’s new toxin, but The Knight mystery plot was, for me at least completely unnecessary
This makes me want to see this scarecrow go up against other DC hero’s line Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, or Flash. Also it makes me wonder… why wasn’t John Noble cast as Sauron, the Witch King or any the Nazgûl in the Lord of the Rings trilogy?
I love Mr. Freeze and Hush, but this Scarecrow in live-action would be THE BEST addition to The Batman Saga as villain in PART II. I hope he will be, at least, supporting villain
Just read all three issue of the series and I gotta say... god damn am I confused. Is Scarecrow actually there? Is Batman just hallucinating Scarecrow being with him? Was the little girl real? Also read the whole thing with Kevin Conroy's voice for Batman, Mark Hamil's voice for Joker, and John Noble's voice for Scarecrow...mostly. Originally started with the original voice of Scarecrow from Batman: the Animated Series, but then I transitioned to John Noble's take from Arkham Knight.
The Arkham series does the best portrayals of these characters. Outside of the Arkham series these characters would be lame. I would love to see them portray black manta
Harley Quinn: No TRANSFUSED JOKER BLOOD business? That was the best part! And the worst part. The bworst. Deadshot: Sure missed a lot in Gotham while I was out of the game. Ain't sorry about it. Boomerang: Oi, if you ever heard a rumor about Scarecrow makin' me have an accident? NOT true. King Shark: There are so many villains in Gotham City! Much more than in Louisiana.
John Noble is great but I think the voice from Arkham Asylum was more creepier. I dont know maybe when I actually play the game I will come to like this one more.
i think i speak for everyone that has Scarecrow as their favorite Batman villain and who doesn't own an Xbone or PS4 when i say... DARN DARN DARN DARN-Y DARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN!!!!!

Scarecrow goon #1: “dude, the boss’s mask is scary as hell.”
Scarecrow goon #2: “it’s not a mask.”
First time I saw this... Despite the terror chills, is "Holy fuck, is that real?" And then I realized it was John Noble, another "Holy fuck"...
Batman and his beloved city understand the true meaning of fear when he is done.

John Noble needs to be the voice for X-Men's Apocalypse instead of Tom Hardy to do the character justice !
Wow
green aura with flies
I wish there’d be another sequel somehow. And I’d like Anarky to get an upgrade like Scarecrow
I must admit when I first saw this I thought he was dead
Nothing hurts like losing one of the family, knowing there is no one to blame but yourself.
