The dude was just too much for Batman and Joker to keep up with, and it was cool seeing him play a proper threat. Hush was also a great story for him, if they need material.
Which Riddler you like?The classic version that always hated the Joker and his ways?
Or perhaps the current a little-but-still homicidal version?
TBH I'm not a super fan of them turning Riddler into your typical voice changer equipped serial killer you'd get in any detective novel, but I get they're trying to make him more intimidating (plus all the Zodiac killer inspiration is interesting). I'm also not a fan of his motivation being to punish the corruption in Gothams elite. We already got that with the League/Ra's, and it seems kind of cookie cutter. It's also not something he's given any kind of thought to in comics. On the other hand, I've also heard peoples theories that he's going after the Court of Owls which would be fantastic, so I'm not completely opposed to the idea.
I'll be happy as long as they keep his genius and narcissism intact though. The first has always been his biggest strength, and the second has always been his biggest weakness. As long as that translates, I'm good. Also, Paul Dano probably the best actor in this movie (which is saying something since Ferrel and Pattinson are both heavy hitters).

Bruce already looks superior to any MCU Avenger in combat ability.
Why, because it took him several hits to down a common street thug?
Movie looks good, but I have to admit that i'm getting a bit tired of the rehashed villains and such. How many different takes of Catwoman, Joker, Riddler, and Penguin does the world need?

I admit it looks good. Visually it doesn't look too terribly different from Nolan's vision, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I wouldn't mind a little more stylized production design, though, like the original Tim Burton film.
I felt the same at first, but on a rewatch of the trailer, I got a stronger comic book vibe than Nolan's more realistic approach to Batman.

One thing Reeves said, that I liked, was that Gotham itself was going to be treated like its own character. They actually went and copied a lot of gothic architecture so that it would actually have a distinctive look.
I think that's one thing that will set the movie apart from Nolan's trilogy.
