well for me The Rumour about Johnny Depp as The Riddler could be true as he was approached for The Role of The Riddler By Chris Nolan and even received a phone call from Chris Nolan about that role being for him only if he wants it, he also said it will be fun Gig for a while on The Radio when asked will he would be The Riddler in Batman 3 but in the case of The Rumor of Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin He Publically Said on The Daily News “No one has talked to me about it – never,” the actor told MTV. “It happened, like, five years ago, too. It’s a rumor back then and it’s still a rumor.” So it is Case Closed about The Riddler being in Batman 3 while The Penguin is not, But The Big Question is who would star with Johnny Depp and original Cast maybe Tom Hardy as Harvey Bullock or as Bane Perhaps with The Black Mask and Catwoman only if she is Confermed if not it would be Talia Al Ghoul. Questions so Many Questions [ from The Riddler in Batman Forever]

You know they’re not going to cast the obvious choice for the Batman movie, so it’s all gravy, baby. The executives would be idiots to force Nolan and co. to make any changes. But, I guess that’s what they’re there for. They’ve already got Christian Bale, so they don’t really need anything else to advertise the movie, so as long as it’s good, there won’t be a problem.

Do people actually like Nightmare on Elm St? I hope that there are not people in the world who consider that a great film. It has it’s purpose I suppose but it’s by no means a good film.

Yes Ed Wood is one of the ones I disliked the most. I honestly would of been much happier had I never seen that movie.

Hey Daniel have you seen Ed Wood ?

Umm Hunter I hope you realize you can’t speak for everyone. I couldn’t stand Depp long before I ever heard of him being cast in Pirates. I simply haven’t liked his work and even in the films he’s been in that are decent he has never done anything impressive that stands out to me.

Hey TheHunter,,, have you seen “Dead Man”?
My favorite Depp film is prob “Ed Wood”.
He would be awesome as the Riddler.

If not for the Pirates of the Carribean sequels, all of you would eat your words about Johnny Depp. He is a magnificent method actor when given the right material and a film-maker the caliber of which can inspire the best in him. And, as we’ve seen, Chris Nolan is the kind of film-maker that can bring out the best in most actors. As far as whether we want to see Riddler and Penguin, all I can say is the same people that keep bashing a new take on these guys were the ones that were all like “Jack IS the Joker. We don’t need to do him again” so I for one welcome and would be highly elated to see Nolan’s take on an OCD socially-dissociated serial killer searching recognition for his intellect by casting a shadow over the Batman with nothing but Riddles to link him to the murders. And each murder brings him a step closer to his goal: Killing Batman. Falcone jailed, Maroni dead, a new mob-boss is needed. Enter Ozzy “the Penguin” Cobblepot. He’s brought the family out of harsh times in other major cities. He’s ready to take a crack at Gotham, and he’s not afraid of this “Bat character”. But, he needs to get him out of his hair. He hires a hitman, one who is obsessed with leaving a calling card in the form of riddles. He’s not a terrorist, hellbent on the world knowing his name, and seeing his face. He’s the product of a brilliant imaginiation in a dark time. Joker has brought out the best in some, but the worst in others. The madness in Gotham has only escalated further. And Batman has to solve the clues and find Riddler, before Riddler finds him.

There will be no cast updates for like a year, I’ve never seen a film so overhyped before AND after like TDK and the next batman.

Either one would be perfectly cast IMO. I can’t wait to see if these pan out.

I can agree with you there Ken. What I meant by same was more along the lines of being just as praised. Depp is one of the few actors that no matter what movie he is going to be in you can predict almost exactly how he will portray the part. It doesn’t really ever change. I think if this were the 90′s still and we were still in that era of Batman films he would be fine for the part, but I don’t see his style fitting in with the Nolan films.
