Neil Patrick Harris as..........The Riddler!

Dman001 · 2010-04-03 14:23:00

Ok so it's obviously an April Fools joke, but a bit of me would love to see NPH as The Riddler. Although Im not sure I'd like to see Morgan "Freedman" in the next Batman film!

have to say I got a real shock there and I was like he would be a great Riddler if they were to cast him he would be very cool and would be very zanny and funny.

I mean a great riddler.

I still remember him from Starship troopers he was great in that film he was very funny in it.

Plus Doctor Horrible is great.

Riddle me this riddle me that.

nolan is goin to pick someone you would never think would play the riddler just like he did with joker ledger.

but have to say there were so many hints in dark knight that ledger and catwomen were goin to be in batman 3.

I assume that Phillip Seymour Hoffman is the more affordable version of the great Philip Seymour Hoffman.

How you could go to all the trouble to make the poster and then misspell two of the names is beyond me. Any legitimacy is instantly dispelled the second the mistakes are noticed.

You mean Phillip Seymour Hoffmann. Two ls, two fs, two ns.

You could play the Batman casting game all day. My favourite is that one about Orson Welles' plans to film it with Welles himself taking the lead role.

i'd say the mis spelling is meant to be there for some reason.

amazing poster have to say its well done. I;d hang it up.

even thou its a fake poster its a very clever fake poster.

Very clever marketing too you pick a very high profile actor at the moment oscars presenter how I met your mother doctor horrible.

You make a post as a April fool but it gets people thinking what if he was picked and this poster will be put up in people homes and rooms.

Hes a high profile gay actor and Hes Doogie Howser..

And its a deadly poster..

Im a doctor god god damn it not A mechanic

just watch it again and listen too everything said there is a few hints and the ton of the film its build but right up until the very end you think its goin to keep goin joker was def meant to be in the third film.

hint 1: Remember when he gets attacked by dogs in the beginning when he goes to see lucius fox to get a better lighter suit and lucius works againsts cats too when wayne says to him he got attacked by dogs
