  • @bsabruzzo
    @bsabruzzo 9 лет назад +48

    The problem with many portrayals of the Riddler is that the writers aren't as smart as they want the character to be. They can't layout a puzzle and think riddles are the things gradeschool children tell as jokes. If the Riddler is to be written well, his plans would span years of comic book issues, left unsolved and not connected with him easily because the have multiple wrong possibilities as they are only pieces to solve... like putting a puzzle together. The solution should be so well written that once you read it, you get it, but only in 20/20 and not with the need for inside knowledge like "Mcguffin Square is holding the Hitchcock dance in the Spade building of Maltese and Falcon, so it must be the answer is Bob the janitor (who nobody mentioned until now)".
    Now for my riddle: "In marble walls as white as milk, within a lining as soft as silk, sitting in a fountain crystal clear a golden apple doth appear. No doors there are to this stronghold, yet thieves break in and steal the gold."

    • @bsabruzzo
      @bsabruzzo 9 лет назад +9

      Connor Stickels That's the trick with a good riddle. It has to be generic so that anybody can guess, vague enough so that it can have multiple answers, but be specific in one way that it rules out all but one possibility. If it weren't for the Hobbit and Tolkien having used a version of this, I'd say people would be guessing more.
      And this is why the Riddler, if written well, is the most difficult villain to fight... but he's not often written as well because riddles are much more complex than jokes.

    Would it be too much to ask, that at least once in my lifetime, I would see a serious Batman film, where The Riddler would be the main villain - but not like Jim Carey's overacted Riddler - but menacing and dangerous maniac who is driven to test others by leaving clues and riddles to his crimes. Who is dedicated to creating a riddle the Dark Knight won't be able to solve in time - even if he has to kill someone to do it! That's the Riddler I remember from Arkham games!

    • @WeylandYutaniCorp91
      @WeylandYutaniCorp91 10 лет назад +42

      You're contradicting yourself. That is exactly why he is insane.
      Over the years, Nigma has done nothing but attempt to make the perfect crime. Once he's stopped, he'll just make another game. He's insane because he believe one of the traps would actually be elaborate enough to outwit the Bat-Man.

    • @wesleywiggins958
      @wesleywiggins958 8 лет назад +2

      Chronk yep, a lot of Batman villains have names that go with their persona's, Selina Kyle, Selina rhymes with Feline (sorta) aka Catwoman, Pamela Isley aka Poison Ivy, not only does Isley sound like Ivy, but her initials stay the same, P.I. not to mention her middle name Lillian comes from Lily which is a type of flower. Another I like, and not many realize is 1960's Robin, Burt Ward... kind of a trick name there as well because Robin aka Dick Grayson is known as Bruce Wayne's ward... I am sure there are many more, but yes, Riddler's has got to be one of the best.

    If I was Nolan, If I had wrote the script to the third and final installment to The Dark Knight trilogy, first off I would've chose a different title such as "Gotham City" or "The Caped Crusader" and second, I would chosen The Riddler, The Penguin, Harley Quinn, and the surprise/plot twist villain being Poison Ivy. The Riddler would be a criminal mastermind with a near Genius-level IQ who becomes the most intellectually and psychologically challenging enemy yet who joins forces with The Penguin, a disfigured, greatly-feared, and highly-intelligent crime-boss who wants to seize full control of Gotham's criminal underworld and was once trained by Ra's Al Ghul at some point in his life but had betrayed Al Ghul and disappeared with Al Ghul being unable to find him. The Riddler and Penguin's alliance is threaten when not only does Batman re-emerge after nearly a decade but when a face-painted female psychopath also comes to Gotham to continue The Joker's mission into unleashing utter chaos and destruction in Gotham and wants to wipe out all the other crime families of the city so she can rule of Gotham as "The Clown Princess of Crime". The Penguin manages to manipulate Harley into joining his organization but The Riddler has plans to betray and kill Penguin later down the road but towards the climax, Riddler's plan backfires and is outsmarted by both Penguin and Batman which leads to his demise. It turns out that Penguin suspected and was well aware of Riddler's plan to betray him and was tracking down his every move! He even had men in his (Riddler's) organization the whole time! What do you think about that as an alternative third-parter to Nolan's TDK trilogy? Any opinions? Open 4 Feedback!

      I hope you see this as constructive criticism! Too many "main" characters to keep up with, tie together, pit against each other, etc. I wonder how/why Oswald would get in with the League of Shadows - and how he could avoid being found but not Bruce - and how he could outsmart Edward, and for so long, and reaching so far, and without Edward knowing. (In short, The Riddler loses all dramatic power when he's not the smartest villain.) Harlene wants chaos and anarchy, but also wants to be head of organizations? I'm sorry, but this *could* work in a campy universe - just not the realistic Nolanverse. Also, adding Pamela as yet another twist? :whew:
      EDIT: Ah, I didn't see the four-year timespan between our comments. Anyway! Cheers. $:^ J

    Who would play a better darker version of the Riddler in a Dark knight movie Leonardo DiCaprio or Johnny Depp. Instead of being a Thief the Riddler would be a cereal killer who left a riddle at every one of his crime scenes. That left a riddle on were or who his next kill would be.

    I think a different origin explains The Riddler's actions more clearly. You see, his father was abusive and beat Edward if he ever told a lie. This compelled him to instinctively tell the truth. Therefore, riddles have a single correct answer which he's attracted to.
