Talk:Amon/@comment-4521003-20120216231217/@comment-4521003-20120218181431

Yeah, that's why talking sometimes would be a compromise. It's just the overall concept of not talking every time we see him that I'm pondering, not necessarily specifically zero talking.

You've seen the Heath Ledger portrayal of the Joker, right? One thing I loved about his rendition of that villain was how thought-provoking some of his statements were, and how they twisted the situation. If Amon were partially-silent, I would like it if he said things along the same lines to make the heros question themselves and everything they do. His partial-silence would make anything he said have even more significance than if he were a monologuing villain.

I just think Amon would be good as a psychological villain. It's not the only possibility, but it's an interesting one. The creators did say they wanted this series to go a new direction, and not repeat the original. A quiet villain would certainly do that.
