Dexter = The Riddler???

*Master Splinter* · 02-25-2010, 01:46 PM

This is just hypothetical aka someone's opinion... So don't think this guy actually has the role!

What do you think? Does he have what it takes? I never thought of putting Hall in the role but now that it has entered my mind I cannot picture anyone else...

Recently saw him in "Gamer" and was suitably impressed with his ability to be a bad guy.

I mean, in my mind? He's always David Fisher from "Six Feet Under", so there's that.

Either way, my hopes are that who ever plays Edward Nigma will take a more "Batman TAS" approach to him, rather than Jim Carrey's version.

I think it could work. I thought Heath Ledger was a horrible choice for the Joker but I was way wrong on that. I have a open mid. He could def do it.

Never thought about it before, but genius choice. I hope he gets it

poiuytre · 02-25-2010, 02:59 PM

He is a really good actor. I would certainly approve of this.

That picture isn't helping. Just terrible.

Well it is obviously photochopped... It reminds me of a more sinister Alex from Clockwork Orange (which I think is what they were going for...) which actually makes me believe that M.C. Hall could probably play Alex in a remake...

I don't see how this guy "is" the Riddler... or why you guys are actually seriously discussing this since that article is purely a fan-written editorial.

*ToTheNines* · 02-25-2010, 04:16 PM

What's with the eye liner?

Even if it wont happen, I think alot of people think he is the perfect choice. Therefor he ''is'' The Riddler.

It's photoshopped? Noooo...

It's just how large his head looks.

Also, we already had an Alex ripoff in the last batman movie.

I'm not saying this guy IS the Riddler, just that he would make a great Riddler... Check out some of his acting abilities if you do not know who he is... Michael C. Hall has that persona that a Nolan Batman film would fit perfectly with...

There are a lot of other threads that some may wonder "why is this even a topic" but you got to remember, I'm not here for you and I'm not here spewing non-fiction, just opinion, so why you bitchin?

That is suppose to reference Clockwork Orange's character Alex who in my opinion and of course the authors would make a great reference character for Riddler...

What the hell does Clockwork Orange have to do with the Riddler?

Also, when I first came in this thread I was expecting this Dexter:

I would watch that movie twelve times, then that would be it.

Not the movie, just the character Alex (played by Malcolm McDowell)... The way he acts reminds me so much of a dark troubled Riddler... Without the riddles of course...

I'm curious who you are referring too... Got me wondering if I should watch it again tonight...

I just have a feeling that Hall would be perfect for the role. Of course I can always be convinced otherwise... That is the beauty of opinion... It can change...

***may have answered my own question but are you referring to the whacked out cop that Harvey wanted to kill?

Ledger said it himself that he based his performance more on Alex than any of the comic Jokers.....Bleh.

The Batman movies don't need to go down the same route of the Spider-man movies by having every main villain exactly the same.

Let me guess, you didnt like Heath Ledger as the Joker? If so, why? I thought he was great. Showed his abilities as an actor. Loved the dark side of the Joker. We needed that in a Batman film.
