Although by the point this came along, the shot in the pitch black hallway with nothing but the shot of a gun lighting the screen was some of the most amazing cinematography and fitted so well with the character.
@@jeeroylenkins6625 the reflection in his glasses should be the FaceTime call that he’s on. You can tell that the video playing in front him on a cell phone is not the conversation that he’s actually having
Yeah I don't understand the reflection it was so distracting. It was clearly not batman, what was on the screen he was watching. Thought batman would later would analyse his reflection to find what was he looking at.
@Colt Hoffman I mean, to get the Riddler right, all you have to do is include these simple but important aspects: -Tells riddles. -Give him a green outfit with 1 or more question mark insignia(s). -Give him a superiority complex and a fragile ego. -But also make him actually terrifying and threatening as well. And there you have it. Don't add anything less than that.
I was really impressed with the riddler in this movie, they went less with a glamorous cartoony riddler and more with a mellowed down jigsaw like riddler, but they balanced the line perfectly between gritty and entertaining
@@ameliej6690 well still, Dano didn’t direct the movie. He directed the one scene that only he was in, so.... he directed himself? Not exactly something I’d brag about
After watching this movie I can say with certainty that scene was one of the most thrilling and tense of the whole movie. I think Dano wanted to get the perfect tone and delivery necessary to sell the pressure of the scene.
Everyone makes fun of comic book characters when they’re portrayed as “real life cartoons”, forgetting that they are cartoons and aren’t necessarily made for a hyper-realistic cinematic world. Maybe they are made for more of a stylized Tim Burton world.
The Part where Nigma/Nashton belittles Batman was absolutely captivating. Its already close to the three hour mark at that time and to have that pop up was truly chilling. If Riddler is this cunning and maniacal how much more the Joker, with the Riddler.
Considering Pattinson received a measly $3 million to play Batman, I’m guessing Paul Dano got $500K-1 million. Which is totally insane when you consider Jim Carrey received about $20 million to play Riddler in Batman Forever, which was kinda lame.
Which scene from The Batman made you realize how great the movie will be?
I think we all know it was the moment we heard the sound of the engine of the batmobile

@@Razor_Crest that reminded me of the scene of Darth Vader in Rouge One
@@SpookyKid_SpaceAce Oh yeah! As well as the Daredevil scene.
The opening scene, tbh
In the scene you can tell the take they decided on and the one that he’s watching, based on the reflection in his glasses, are different takes
Wait what?

Dawg I thought I would be the only one in the theater to have caught that, glad I found someone else who can say the same :D
That’s scene, is where I learned that the Riddler can truly be a scary character if done right
You look familiar…
Brother?

@Colt Hoffman So you just want the riddler to be a secondary laughing stock instead of a primary threat to gotham?
Bro when they revealed the Riddler's face the first thing I thought was
Your average school nerd
He looks like Michael Reeves the youtuber
Thats the point tbf
Or the average adin Ross fan
@@Despotic_Waffle Not at all. Not nearly enough acne lmao
I thought Michael reeves or young bill gates 😂
Paul Dano is a great actor! Didn't know he did 200 takes 😳 this new producer guy is pretty good so far
Fr
He directed the Planet of the Apes Trilogy
@@bastibagui2553 cloverfield
@@obscure.reference Haven't watched it
@@bastibagui2553 it’s decent
The Riddler from the Gotham tv series was a good one
Agreed
You that is true but he met in a movie
Typo
As well as penguin and joker
Facts they should had got him again
I was really impressed with the riddler in this movie, they went less with a glamorous cartoony riddler and more with a mellowed down jigsaw like riddler, but they balanced the line perfectly between gritty and entertaining
I would say he's a cross between Jigsaw and the Zodiac Killer
@@kickinwinghotboi883i was only thinking about the zodiac killer after the funeral car scene
"Did you get payed by the hour?"😂😂😂😂😂 smart boy.
You "im glad they have a riddler whos not a cartoon character."me "have you even seen the show Gotham?"
EXACTLY I loved that portrayal
Absolutely love Gotham, and the riddler is one of my favourite characters from it
Gotham did a pretty good riddler tbh
Absurd storylines but amazingly layered characters.
Cory Michael Smith is an incredible actor
This takes the record for The Shining “Give me the bat” scene
Yeah but the difference is Paul Dano aka the actor decided to. Not the director 😂
@@Jearbearjenkins facts 😂 Kubrick was different.
I LOVE what they did with the Riddler. He feels like who would really be this villain in real life. It’s so good
That part where Dano goes “NOOOOOOO THIS WASNT HOW IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN” was so damn good
That’s show how great of an actor he is, and how passionate he is
No joke Riddler as a young boy looked so much like my cousin I got concerned.
I didnt know Paul Dano directed it! I love that guy!
He killed it in this movie!🙌🏻
Matt Reeves directed the movie, Paul Dano directed the ONE scene I guess. If you love him so much how did you not know he was even in the movie
@@harryosborne8215 they said they didn’t know he directed, not that he was in the movie
@@ameliej6690 well still, Dano didn’t direct the movie. He directed the one scene that only he was in, so.... he directed himself? Not exactly something I’d brag about
@@harryosborne8215 yea but nobody asked for your opinion so 🤷♂️
Loved him. He played a messed up orphan who was addicted to crazy psychedelics from 12 really well
I never imagined Klitz would be amazing in his future career.
Real ones will understand this reference
This OfficialJoeyC guy just doesn't miss
There has never been a bad live action Riddler
"we were stoked to see a live action version of the riddler that didn't look like a living cartoon."
Gotham: "am I a joke to you?"
Him: we finally got a riddler that isn’t a cartoon
Gotham: am I joke to you?
My respect for Dano has grown.
Man's face is rounder than the moon when it's full.
Honestly this scene shows you how mental and insane if it was real life in a way. Just solving riddles to live? That’s hella scary but amazing movie
Paul has been chasing his There Will Be Blood performance and what's sad is not alot of people saw that.
Absolutely love that movie! One of my top 5 favorite movies of all time. Paul Dano and Daniel Day Lewis were amazing
Just in case anyone was wondering, the riddler has also been played by Cory Michael smith in the tv show Gotham, and it was fantabulous
That show was wild. His jealous gay lover killed his girlfriend by cutting her brakes 😳
@@MyOwnVoucherEverywhere this was even after he already murdered his first girlfriend who looks just like his second girlfriend
i thought it looked a lot like a ripoff of Heath Ledger's joker when he did his own recording with the hostage.
correct
I see a heartagram in the background. You sir, are awesome!
Thanks dude! I love HIM
“To the botman”😳
Beautiful. He gave his costars a series of scenes they could choose from to fit the movie best🙌👏🙌
That must be why it got delayed twice
I'm sorry about what they did to you
It should have been canceled. Terrible movie.
@@newagain9964 it’s the best live action Batman.PERIOD
@@newagain9964 too bad for u 😌
@@newagain9964 not a batman fan lmao

it took me less time to go to the moon in my toyota...I don't have a toyota...whaaa lol
Ever realize how this robs Batman makes Bale and affleck look like impostures
More of this guy in longer videos please!! Super entertaining
The riddler should be a real life cartoon
Bro looks like the riddler
I feel like this movie had less of the usual “super hero” feel to it. It was more realistic, and the whole city looked grungy and dirty. It was great
You know, the way he approached that, ironically is VERY riddler esque
Love the heartagram!
“As an artist, the one that will critique your work more than anyone will be yourself”
you almost lost me at the intro…
now I'm not a bully nor anything, but why is Paul Danos face so hilarious, I mean tte dude looks like a frickin dork man it's too funny
This guy forgot about the Gotham riddler
Emmy worthy performance!.
Wifi connection was insane!
Paul on a talk show in a rice cake suit
His riddler unmasked looks like a real crazy person definitely not a nerd just a crazy guy
The riddler was a creepy “Bates Motel” weirdo mommas boy. Instead of clever, articulate, witty… he was trying so hard to be the next Joaquin Joker…
What are you even talking about? He was witty and clever just more psychotic.
@@ilikepancakes2368 he was so cringey, it seems like he was trying too hard to be an insane joker instead of the riddler, it felt inauthentic
At least it wasn't the actor that was being criticized. Director seems like a perfectionist
Gotham’s riddler was great too
We never went 2 da moon
In TDK when Joker kidnapped the fake Batman and was recording him while interrogating him..Heath ledger was the camera man for that too just like this
That scene was terrifying. Amazing
Wow a heartagram, Im the only person I know that still has one of those
Man my fav band ever
I have a "Toy-yoda" 😂
Any scene that takes over 20 takes means a crazy director
Do you mean 200 retakes? ‘Cause if so then you’re wrong, The Shining movie still owns the world record for most movie retakes at 148 retakes.
Loved Dano in Prisoners as well
Liked this cuz of the Heartagram -HIM is a great band lol
He looks like my cousin who got into trouble with the Batman
I love this guy! He’s hilarious😂
Seriously! We need more of him!
Yessss we need more people like you
😐L
Just gonna forget about the Riddler portrayal in Gotham?
Seems like a lot of ppl haven’t seen GOTHAM or forgot about it because I could see him in this portrayal.
Yea I like Jim Carey's portrayal but it's good to have a very serious psychopathic portrayal where he isn't just used as a gag or a joke too
Damn your scream scared me and woke up my dog
I saw that interview too. Thanks screnrat
Matt Reaves did a helluva job with this movie
"Riddle me this, Batman: who was in Paris?"
Love that scene sm
“I don’t have a Toyota”😂😂😂
"That wasn't a cartoon character"
Nygma from gotham:am I a joke to you?
Why does this guy give me shaggy from Scooby-Doo vibes 😂

People be sleepin on paul dano
Great video but is that Khruangbin you’re playing in the background lol?
He did amazing as riddler
The comedy is try hard. But I appreciate the quick factoid.
I found Danos riddler terrifying. He did a great job. Really felt like he was a serial killer.
He doesn’t have a Toyota guys!
I was getting saw vibs from him
You kind looking like the riddler not going to lie
The guy was on FaceTime with tape covering the camera lol
He actually looks like the Riddler
It’s not riddler, it’s hush
I’m for real excited to see the sequel with the Joker. I can’t wait to see the second part
Also this riddler in this has to be my favorite of all time
So did Paul Dano just break Stanley Kubrick's 127 take record?
The Part where Nigma/Nashton belittles Batman was absolutely captivating. Its already close to the three hour mark at that time and to have that pop up was truly chilling. If Riddler is this cunning and maniacal how much more the Joker, with the Riddler.
What part was that? 🧐🤗
Good easter egg, 200 riddler takes because 200+ trophies that i need to collect in arkham games
Considering Pattinson received a measly $3 million to play Batman, I’m guessing Paul Dano got $500K-1 million. Which is totally insane when you consider Jim Carrey received about $20 million to play Riddler in Batman Forever, which was kinda lame.
This the scene I chose to go to the bathroom during 😭😭 guess I gotta watch it all over again hehe
Nooo. I feel so bad for you.
@@facelesshaibane I made it back in time for the explosion though lol
DOADA are the letters all over the car…
Dead on Arrival District Attorney
He nailed it
you look like the riddler
The first time when I saw his face
F he is one of my nerd friends
If Edward reminds you of your friend, then your friend must be really cute.
@@facelesshaibane yeah you can say that
Jim carreys performance in batman forever is so misunderstood and underapeciated
Gotham’s Riddler wasn’t a “real life cartoon character”
He also wrote Riddler Year One
He's no Jim Carrey
The guy talking over this is insufferable. Ryan George was the only bright spot on Screen Rant.
Idk why... but when this guy talks, his mouth moves in a weird way 😂😂
