Cancer the Conqueror

inforego, it appears you're not looking outside the box here. Granted, standard-detective, green-suit-wearing, sly mastermind-persona Riddler that everyone here enjoys would not work it this contempory noir setting of Bats. So in the same vein as Ultimate Spider-Man, why don't we try to find "Ultimate" versions of these villans?  
 
Instead of a trap-setter, the Riddler is, in this film, a highly refined computer hacker, using the idiom "Riddler" online, made by his joy to tease those he hacks with quotes or riddles. After the death of Maroni and the dissaperance of Batman, Gotham is in a colossal crime war, on wfought by the Penguin and Black Mask for the title of supremacy in the Gotham City crime syndicate. Publicly, "Ozzie" Cobblepot is the collected and sophisticated owner of the Iceberg Lounge, one of Gotham's most refined night clubs, when in the Underground, Cobblepot is the arms dealer "Penguin," who recently put up the trend of hiring unusually powerful mercenaries (Or at least "realistic" versions of well-known guns-for-hire, such as Deadshot or Bane). Roman Sionis  is a psychotic killer, a greedy scumbag who was driven insane by the loss of his fortune and neglect of his late parents, among other things; also a mastermind in deception and never afriad to Saw-level implements of torture, his greed sets him up to take the throne as Gotham's top crimelord under the psydonym "Black Mask." 
 

This premise, two power-hungry madmen aiming for control, can lead up towards tons of potential. The Penguin, peicing together that Batman's weapons are built by Wayne Enterprises, hired Riddler to find out who  designed the Batman and bring disgrace to one of the largest companies in the world, also bringing Bruce Wayne, an immensly wealthy man, to his feet. Small and large-scale battles on the streets, deception and mistrust among crime and the GCPD alike, Batman's struggle to clear his name and earn back Gordon's trust, and many other sub-plots can come together in a phenominal, Pulp Fiction-like storyline. Phillip Seymour Hoffman can be Penguin, Kevin Spacey as Black Mask, and (I don't care what you'll say) Johnny Depp as Riddler. My idea is that Riddler has an omnicent premise like the killer from "Se7en," only appearing 'till the very end. That way, Depp's essense to steal the show in every film he's been in won't diminish the focus on the rest of the story.

Yeah, I got disinterested a long time ago. Now, Ultimatum is just another storyline I don't feel bad on simply reading online summaries on.

You just don't kill Daredevil Loeb, nomatter what the Universe!

As long as it's done properly, A Mags flick could be awesome.

Then again, "done properly" is still a concept being worked on in terms of comicbook movies among moviemakers.

Just this morning, a guy I know at school and I had this heated discussion. I said the bearer of the Green Lantern Ring would prevail, but he insited the Jedi Master would win the scuffle. Now, I'm bringing the debate here: Who would YOU guys think would win?

Indeed, very colorful.

Green, Yellow, Pink, Red, Orange, Violet, Blue...and then there's the oncoming Black Lanterns...What's next, the Brown-With-Purple-Polka-Dots Lantern Corps?

I don't see movies out in theatres that often (I know, I know...), so, so far, I'm gonna have to go with Iron Man. Maybe X-Men,

PLUS: When you're posting on a forum solely about comicbook culture when you're supossed to be studying in 3rd Period :)

...When you go the local cirus and find it strange that the clowns aren't killing anyone

...When you could spend an afternoon discussing the history and functions of the GL Corps and their evil/good dopplegangers.

...When you study psycology solely to write origin stories.

...When a non-reader asks, "Hey do those things have actual meaning or are they just a bunch of pictures?" and you get royaly pissed off inside.

...When you could name all members of the Avengers/ Justice League in their entire history, but you can't pass Geometry.

...When you hear "Daredevil", and you don't automatically picture Evil Kanevil in your head.
