Because Eddie’s injury was blocked by the jacket I never knew how much blood was on Eddie’s shirt.

Oh yes, and the size difference.

Can anyone solve the puzzle of Paul Dano’s Riddler in The Batman?

The Riddler has always been a Batman supervillain with a penchant for thorny posers. And yet usually the question marks are set by the caped crusader’s mischievous nemesis himself, as spiky traps for Gotham’s dark knight to fall into. In the case of Matt Reeves’ forthcoming The Batman, it looks as if they might zero in more precisely on the identity of Edward Nygma himself.

Leaked artwork for the forthcoming reboot has sparked a flurry of speculation as to who exactly Paul Dano will be portraying in Reeves’ film. Certainly, this vision of a clumsily masked figure is a long way from the one most comic-book fans will be used to, so much so that those who hark back to Jim Carrey’s manic, grinning idiot in Joel Schumacher’s execrable Batman Forever, or Frank Gorshin’s slick trickster in the 50s TV show, might wonder if they are looking at a different character altogether.

Maybe they’re right. It’s been pointed out on Twitter that the new Riddler resembles popular images of the Zodiac Killer, the never-identified serial murderer who terrorised northern California in the 60s and early 70s. There’s also more than a passing resemblance to other masked Batman villains such as Hush and the Birthday Boy. The former has worked closely with Nygma in the comics, while the Zodiac Killer shares with the Riddler a love of writing devious and provocative letters to his wannabe captors.

The mystery deepens when we consider that a version of the supervillain as serial killer also exists in the comics, albeit in an alternate DC universe. Geoff Johns’ Batman: Earth One saw the Riddler reimagined as a sadistic murderer who tortures his victims with riddles that he falsely claims will save them if they answer correctly.

So what’s going on here? The simplest answer is that Reeves has wisely pinpointed the traditional Riddler as far too much of a cheeky klutz to ever truly present Batman with any major threat in what promises to be the most grown-up big screen take on Gotham since Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. The lightweight nature of the Riddler is a problem fans of the comics have often pointed out. Consequently, the supervillain’s menace and guile have been slowly upgraded in most iterations since DC’s New 52 reboot in 2011 – this will be the first movie since then to feature the supervillain, so the approach makes sense.

It’s also notable that IMDb lists Dano as portraying Edward Nashton, not Edward Nygma, giving the new Batman team considerable wiggle room when it comes to its depiction of the trickster. Nashton is traditionally the Riddler’s birth name, the one he used before deciding to become a supervillain. But what if Nashton never picked up the famous green question-mark costume and was ultimately pulled in a different, perhaps more psychopathic, direction?

There are other reasons why it would be little surprise if Reeves is cooking up Riddler 2.0. We’ve already seen that The Batman will star a Penguin (Colin Farrell) who bears little resemblance to the Oswald Cobblepot of, say, Batman Returns. Moreover, Reeves is battling to establish this new vision of Gotham against a backdrop of Batman overload – there have been nine big-screen efforts starring the caped crusader since Tim Burton’s Batman in 1989, 10 if you count Ben Affleck’s brief cameo in Suicide Squad. And the reboot will also have to contend with the fact that Batfleck is still out there somehow in Andy Muschiett’s forthcoming The Flash, which will delve into various alternate universes in which a number of different dark knights are set to appear. (Yes, they’re bringing back Michael Keaton, too).

Bearing in mind all the other Batmans we’ve seen in TV shows and animated feature films over the past decade or so, Reeves needs to both make his version of the caped crusader stand out from the crowd and ensure tired old treatments of Batman’s traditional rogues’ gallery are given a refresh for the post-Covid world. Given he’s doing somewhat of the opposite with Robert Pattinson’s Batman himself, by restoring our hero to world’s greatest detective mode, thereby ridding him of the knuckle-headed, gun-toting baggage introduced by Zack Snyder in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, most fans would probably say he’s entitled to mess with the supporting cast as much as he likes.

How Cosmic Jokes Are Played on Mere Mortals

The Universe:  “Hey, you know what’s a great idea?  Let’s take a book about an ancient, genderless, horrifying demon-thing that devours humans but has a preference for children, make a movie out of it, and cast some hot Swedish babe in the role of the monster.  That’ll cause some conflicted feelings, yeah?”

Andy Muschietti:  “K, can do.”

The Universe:  “Oh, AND, Let’s take the very creepiest, sociopathic human character in the book - who happens to be a lumpy, dull, undeveloped 12-year-old - and then have him played by a much more mature, absolute sex bomb that could make Aphrodite blush.  Whattaya think?”

Andy Muschietti:  “Yeah, I can do that.”

The Universe:  “And finally, let’s have part of the Fandom be morally outraged when the other part of the Fandom inevitably gets all hot and bothered and proceeds to sexualize said characters!!!  That’ll be a laugh, yeah?”

Andy Muschietti:  “Gentlemen — I think we have a hit!”

Andy Muschiett desarrollará y dirigirá el proyecto live-action de Robotech

James Wan previamente fue anunciado para dirigir el proyecto 

The Hollywood Reporter ha revelado que el director Andy Muschietti (Mama, It) "ha sido escogido" para desarrollar y dirigir una planificada película live-action de Robotech de Sony. Sony previamente se acerco a James Wan (Furious 7), quien actualmente esta dirigiendo la película de Aquaman. 

Además, la socia creativa y hermana de Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti, se unirá a la “banda productores de Hollywood” con Gianni Nunnari y Mark Canton (300, The Immortals), como una productora. 

Robotech fue una adaptación editada y reescrita por Harmony Gold de tres series de Anime de ciencia ficción. Cho Jiku Yosai Macross, Cho Jiku Kidan Southern Cross, y Kiko Soseiki Mospeada. Los productores todavía no han anunciado de cual de los tres Anime saldrá la película live-action o cómo se tratará la disputa de derechos de autor entre el socio de Harmony Gold, Tatsunoko Production, y los creadores de Macross (el más popular de los tres Anime).

La web Deadline reportó en febrero del 2015 que Nunnari y Canton habían contratado a Michael Gordon (guión de 300 e historia de G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra) para escribir el guión. Variety reportó que el presidente de Sony Pictures Entertainment Group, Doug Belgrad, el jefe de producción de Columbia Pictures, Michael De Luca, y el vice presidente de producción creativa de Sony Pictures, Matthew Milam, supervisarían el proyecto. Al mismo tiempo, los productores ejecutivos incluían al fundador de Harmony Gold, Frank Agrama, Gordon, y a Jehan Agrama.

La película live-action fue propuesta primero en 2007 con el actor Toby Maguire involucrado en Warner Brothers. En 2008, Lawrence Kasdan (Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Empire Strikes Back) se unió al proyecto como guionista, con Charles Roven (Afro Samurai, The Dark Knight) y Akiva Goldsman uniéndose como productores. En 2009, el guionista de televisión británico Tom Rob Smith fue programado para escribir la historia. En el mismo año, Roven se retiró del proyecto por razones no reveladas y ahora está produciendo las películas de DC Comics como Aquaman.(Kasdan esta involucrado en los recientes proyectos de películas de Star Wars). En 2013, Warner Bros. estaba en platicas para contratar al director Nic Mathieu para dirigir Robotech.

La franquicia de Robotech franchise ha inspirado varios proyectos Estadounidenses como Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles (imagen de arriba).

It was wonderful. I'm really glad Andy Muschiette took a slightly different approach to the story, instead of just copying what was already seen in the first rendition of the book.
