You know…
All these rumors and fanboy excitement about the Riddler being the new villain in the next Batman, movie really makes me mad. The Riddler is completely ridiculous and too much like a Joker character to exist in the universe Nolan’s created. In fact most of Batman’s rouges gallery wouldn’t fit in Nolan’s universe. They are mostly too cartoony, weird or over the top to exist next to what Batman now is on film.
Back to the Riddler. I just don’t see how people, on the internet mostly, feel like this is such an obvious choice. You’d have to completely steer clear of what makes the Riddler, Riddler. He would be a completely new incarnation, unrecognizable to both movie goers and comic fans. And, if that’s the case it might as well be a completely new villain, that could comfortably exist in the current, reality based, Batman flicks.
But, that would just be retarded.
