Riddle me this...NOOOOOOOOO!!!

I think Eddie Murphy would suck at the Riddler...I also hated Jim Carey too..I think Johnny Depp would make a great Riddler. It's going to be hard to follow the supporting actor role of Heath Ledger's Joker but it's a hell of a standard to work to.

I agree, this series of movies is moving away from the 'campy' Batman, and exlploring the darkness of the character.

I'm more worried about bringing Robin into this series than Eddie Murphy playing the Riddler. Depp would have been better, I'm sure.
Robin sucks

The article is bunk. Christian Bale said he wouldn't do another batman if they introduced robin. And eddie murphy as the riddler is just ridiculous.

Don't you have some Ewoks to torture Darth Comic?

I would imagine that this is just a garbage story. Ledger has set the bar pretty high for villians in this franchise now.

The article also mentioned Catwoman portrayed by Rachel Weisz of "The Mummy" and "Constantine". I have seen her name mentioned in other places.

I'm hoping they'll see what the hell they're doing! A comic for the Riddler just because he's a comic? It's the beginning of the decline. No fan of Carey's in just about anything he's done. Agree with Johnny Depp, Edward Norton, or even Casey Affleck (after watching the Assassination of Jesse James...).

They need to cast on talent and skill, that's what made Heath Ledger the best villian in any Batman movie and one of the top screen villians ever.

Why Eddie?? The Riddler was not black. This is like doing a movie about MLK and making the actor playing him white.

That doesn't bother me as much as using a comic. I just can't see Eddie Murphy being able to continue the dark aspect of this franchise. Hell, get Don Cheadel or Jeffrey Wright if it's important to become multi-racial. At least we know they have the chops.

And the Riddle is a fictional character, unlike MLK

I agree...Beyonce Knowles wants to play Wonder Woman too...honestly..if they can do it great..but I don't want to see the Riddler as a comic style character...I want to see an evil dark madman with a flare for word play and anagrams.
