...In an interview a few weeks ago with Gary Oldman said matterafactly to a question by an intervier about the movies next villian, "Oh there are lots of villians to choose, heh, Like the Riddler of course. Smart, a character with a well developed background, and one of the main villians.. Bats NEED to go against brilliant foes.." He ended with a grin...

The Riddler not a bad choice. Make him more darker. Some people say make him something like Jigsaw in the Saw series.

Howabout posting in the batman 3 villain thread rather than making an unnecessary thread

However it is interesting.

Hurray for Vinny's 80th useless thread in this Batman forum!

hopefully he doesnt look like marylin manson however you spell it. like the way they made him look on The Batman.

but YEAH i can see it now. the jigsaw type deal makes me see Riddler in the nolanverse better.

The Riddler shall make an interesting villain.

Make the Riddler more like John Doe in "Se7en" and you have one kick ass villain.

All my threads have had a meaning, douchebag

lol before i would think the idea of a dude dishing out riddles to batman and the cops would be kinda of cheesy, but if he took the jigsaw approach, something dark and menacing. it could work. Like if batman was like locked in a room, and put into a grim situation, where he has to solve a riddle to save his life, you guys who said batman will be his own villain in the 3rd could be put into play, batman could be pushed to the limit while trying to solve this puzzle, and have some lives at stake too. but now it sounds like Saw with a riddle

edit: the se7en approach is cool too

Jesus! I never watched The Batman so I looked it up and he looks terrible. Not worse than their Joker though. Yikes.

I really don't want to see Riddler AGAIN...

Bring in other villains that make sense with the story as of the end of TDK... On the run, vigilantism, etc. As I said in the B3 Villain thread, Reaper and Huntress would be pretty kool choices...

lmao The Batman's Joker is horrible too, i definately dig the animated series Joker and the rest of the villains then too

Wow, just looked up Joker from The Batman myself....he looks GOD AWFUL....hilariously stupid.

John Doe was crazy. If you guys are up for a cookie cutter version of batman villains then make him a take on the Joker. Personally, I give the Riddler more credit than that. Narcissistic and psychotic are two different things. Maybe that's why people have been saying that the Michael Anthony hall character, Mike Engel, from the Dark Knight was a set-up for the Riddler. Who is more narcissistic than people on television?

I could see the Riddler being in the next movie,

Oh, and I'm kind of digging the Shadow of the Bat title for a Riddler movie.

If the Riddler hasn't been set up in previous movies, this is an actor I could get behind. He was great in Rory O'Shea Was Here all the way to Last King of Scotland. He's been one of my picks for a while for the character.

I'd like Johnny Depp too. I just want him in a Batman movie, lol

I say they go ith Norton. They pick the most talented candidate. Just like how they picked Ledger for The Joker.

That's very Tim Burton of you.

Not that he's been wrong in his constant casting of Depp. I'm just saying...

This is an idea that came to me just now, but with Batman on the run and everything, The Riddler could take advantage of that situation and frame Batman further/make it seem as though Batman had been doing some nasty stuff. I think that'd open the door to the "detective" side of Batman, which Nolan's franchise hasn't really touched on thusfar. Of course there'd have to be a lot more to the movie than just the above idea, but still, I think they could incorporate that.

I could see Crispin Glover being the Riddler.

Possibly

Maybe the Riddler could be a mythic criminal mastermind people believed to be behind a series of robberies taking place in all different places, who decides to head to Gotham to see if he can compete with the so called "World's Greatest Detective" who seems to be as mythic as himself. Sounds like a narcissistic genius to me. Of course, he doesn't show himself. More of a behind the scenes kinda guy.

I remember that. IMO, he has the look and manneurisms to belong in that world.

As stated above:
-James McAvoy
-Johny Depp
-David Tennant

would all be good choices for the role. But allow me to make my own suggestion:
Andy Serkis; I think he would be good as the Riddler in both actions and dialogue. As a plus he LOOKS like he could be Riddler.

I used to dislike the Riddler, but I could totally see him being in this universe. And with Nolan at the helm of everything, if he teamed the Riddler with Two-Face it'd actually be good this time.

Yes I do agree. If the Riddler and Two Face team up in three it will be faaaaaaaaaaaaar better then the Schumacher one.

I'd still rather not see them team up, much less appear in the same movie. I still want Catwoman in the next one.

I don't like James Mcavoy as Riddler. I didn't really care for him in wanted either.

He seems too....boyish. Like young. I found his kickassness in Wanted to unbelievable, i.e he looks like a fratboy IMO.

But I hope they base his appearance on the Animated Series Riddler. I thought that incarnation was the best for his character.

I'm gonna say no to Johnny Depp because Jack Sparrow would be the only running through my mind. And he isnt very riddler like.

I cant think of anyone right now...because I am not good with actors.

How about Michael Emerson? He plays Benjamin Linus on the show "Lost"

and he's very creepy and plotting and evil.

That guy ^ is too "pedophile creepy," which isn't right and personally, I'm just not fond of his acting. Ed Norton would probably do a great job, I'd love to see him do it.

Well hell yes Edward Norton is every bit of awesome

I'm not a fan of that guy either. Also, all of the actors selected to play villains so far are famous actors. I've never even heard this guys name until now.

How about Andy Dick? j/k

From the gothem times. Official site.

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c272/Mizk/TheRiddler.jpg

1) Michael Emerson, 2) Casey Affleck or 3) Adrian Brody 4) Guy Pearce

I vote these for the riddler's.

I also believe it will be the Riddler as someone trying to hunt Batman (If you've seen the end of the movie)

Also, The Riddler gives them Viral Advertising.

no andy dick, god no, EDWARD NORTON, Fight Club alone is impressive enough.

im pretty sure Adrian Brody and Guy Pearce were pitched around here for the Joker before Ledger too. Who's next? Lachy Hulme, Sean Penn, and Paul Bettany?

The Riddler ain't going to hunt shit...That's not his character and he sucks as a major villain. He does fine in the back ground with his puzzles. Never mind the fact that he's also a boring character. Now if they add him behind Deathstroke, Deadshot or Bane then there's something to work with. We gotta have action.....

"seeing as how Batman has made short work of the cops in the past, they would need help catching him. The Mayor (or perhaps Boss Rupert Thorne) could demand that they bring in a hired gun to help get the job done. Enter the Riddler, who is currently portrayed in the comics as a good bad guy who helps the cops crack cases. He possesses a superior intellect and proves it by solving mysteries.

The trick with the Riddler is not portraying him as a Joker wannabe or a garish buffoon. By making him Batman's intellectual equivalent and a possible replacement hero for the city, he becomes more of a threat to Batman. What if Edward Nygma is brought in to find out who Batman really is and help the cops get him, but he secretly has his own nefarious agenda"

i dunno bout you guys but i think itll be interesting if they have something like this in the next one, the mob hired a freak, and its only natural for the cops and stuff to get one right? I also am going to cast Edward Nigmaorton

gawd i hope you didnt mean steve carell. cuz if you did...ughh he's not a bad actor, but he's better at being funny and awkward if anything.

The Riddler is not some wacky bafoon like jim carey played him.

if anyone wants to read what i wrote above. i would like to add, Edward Norton could do something reminiscent of his role in Red Dragon, ability to get into the mindset of a crime scene, get facts and deduce evidence, relate that to Batman. him trying to find out who batman is. and what ever, use his english accent so he sounds smarter lol, but yeah read above!

I've seen in that movie and the newer doctor Who series he's good.

nooo, he was supposed to be the original wacky wild and goofy riddler in the first shumacher one. NO lol

im likin the David 'guy from goblet of fire' Tennant. He expressed interest in the role, so im sure if someone gets their dream come true, usually they dont fck things up. and also edward 'nygma' norton

Edward Norton: Fight Club, The Illusionist, American History X

David Tennant: Harry Potter, Dr Who, other tv and film

Michael Emerson: Lost, Legend of Zoro, Saw

lol i guess. He's a well rounded, high caliber actor thats the thing. His role and performance in the Hulk was nothing compared to his other movie's like Fight Club. I dont think itll be totally awkward, Ryan Reynolds was in Blade and now he is Deadpool.

But Ryan is just a back up character and not the main one.

Originally posted by Endrict Nuul

Not to mention Blade and Deadpool are both Marvel properties...

I was checking out other message boards and they are coming to the same conclusions as us it seems. Some people think Norton, others like Tennant.

Someone else said John Malkovich.

although the chances of getting ed norton are slim, since he might have other things in the works, he's a hell of an actor, and to actually be good, is something thats crucial in hollywood. Something that Keannu Reeves should write down lol whoOOooOOaaaa

Edward Norton is my first pick followed by David Tennant

LOL dr House as Riddler LMAO, batman cant solve a riddler so he pops some vicodin haha

Sorry, Futurama joke, ehhhhgh...

Anyways, I think it would be cool if the Riddler was old, and experienced. Anthony Hopkins-like even. It wouldn't fit, due to the Riddler's age being on par with Batman's, but an older, wiser villain would be cool.

He could work, no doubt he's a good actor, being the house fan I am. But I just can't picture him as Riddler, not in the Riddler suit anyway, Riddler always came off somewhat stylish, I guess is the word I'm looking for. Hugh Laurie just doesn't really fit that profile, he's more grungy and big than I think Riddler should be, but hey, he could work.
I think we should just get Jim Carrey back ka-dur

QFT,

Just because Gary Oldman said something about who he wants to see doesn't mean that the Riddler is the next villain.

I was quite pessimistic about choosing Ledger, but look what Heath's done? So I'm gonna say Depp could definitely pull it off. He's fantastic. Each his roles are totally different to the previous/next.

It'd be weird seeing David Tennant in Batman, but he is a genuinely good actor, in serious, adult stuff as well.
As for Hugh Laurie... THAT would be too weird. I just can't see that. I just can't imagine a guy from Blackadder and Jeeves & Wooster being in Batman. He's a good actor, but I certainly don't want him to be the Riddler.

In my opioun if they did have Riddler in the third movie I would want him to be played by Johnny Depp or Hugo Weaving. And here is how I would write him into the sequel.

Okay now when we are first introduced to The Riddler he is a privite detective at first. This harks back to the mordern comics where Riddler is a privite dectective. He is hired by the Police to find out the idenity of Batman because they think that finding out who he is will be easier in bringing him to Justice. This is because they have on numouris times failed to capture him alive. But The Riddler turns on the police because he feels that because he is clever then the whole of the GCPD he should be able to find out Batman`s idenity for himself and he is bent on finding out who Batman is. Through the story Riddler sets chellenges for Batman like one such chellenge he sets for him is solve a series of clues in order to save some of Gotham`s leading figures like the Mayor, Commish Gordon and some normal Gothamnites. Also he chellenges would be quite dark and have dire effects for Batman if he fails. This is how I would write Riddler into the sequel.

As for the costume I would have a departure from the regular green spandex and have him how Alex Ross drew him as it would be a perfect fit in Nolan`s world where the villans are dark and gritty, and not colourful. Picture of Alex Ross`s Riddler is just below this. And also just to make the Riddler seem a bit madder I would have that he has a giant tatto of a giant black queston mark on his back.

That would be my take on the Riddler in the third Batman movie.

Sticking to classic, humanistic characters has got Nolan acclaim with BB and TDK, so i can't think of another classic and humanistic character quite like the Riddler, i could say penguin but i don't like him...nor do i think he's as popular as Riddler. (I'm not sure if that's true, so if i apologize if i am indeed incorrect.)

It's certainly different, but I'd much rather have something even more 'realistic'. That picture honestly makes me think of Sandman rather than the Riddler. And the cane looks slightly, uh, crap.
