How would you feel if they were to have    parsons play him?  <\/p>\n<p>    From my perspective it wouldnt be the kind of casting that    would make me think that they had nailed it nor would it    necessarily be my first pick but thinking about it a bit I    reckon it would be a bold choice that could potentially pay off    (which isnt far off how I have reacted to a lot of DC casting    over the past year or so)    Sure the guy is mainly famous for TBBT which seems to be    something of a marmite show (people either love it or hate it)    but Id like to think that he would be able put in a    performance that would be unique and not end up feeling like a    Jim Carrey impression or Sheldon being the Riddler  <\/p>\n<p>    He could do a more restrained Riddler like the guy on Gotham    where you dont watch the character for his zaniness and    physicality (like Carreys Riddler) but its more that hes    quirky with potential dark side that could snap at any moment    (At this point I am kind of wanting to see the character on    Gotham snap just once at least and am more interested in seeing    that possiblity than I am with watching Fish or Penguin at this    point)  <\/p>\n<p>    There are without doubt bigger name picks that would arguably    suit the role better but given that Ben Afflecks Batman solo    movie already seems to have its Joker, Harley, possible    Deathstroke with an option of Deadshot appearing as well it    could be the case that there isnt really room for a big name    Riddler    However having Bats have to do something like confront the    Riddler in prison for some information where they play mind    games could be interesting (as it would help highlight this    Batmans intelligence which Bales never really did)    or even having the character be an elusive presence like he has    been in the Arkham games could be a lot of fun with Parsons in    that type of role where he isnt getting loads of screen time    and just has to embody the character in a few scenes  <\/p>\n<p>    On the other hand though I wouldnt mind having the Riddler as    the main villain in a Batman movie again and if he were I would    want a bigger star for the role but as a bit part why not    Parsons  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Visit link:<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/screenrant.com\/open-discussion-march-30-2015\/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=open-discussion-march-30-2015\/RK=0\/RS=6CPV2fV98lCHLL_EzT2qwpoSAbc-\" title=\"Open Discussion  March 30, 2015\">Open Discussion  March 30, 2015<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> JLAvenger889 hours ago Purely speculative thing here I just read something on another site from a few weeks ago that was Jim Parsons basically saying he would like to play The Riddler What are your thoughts ScreenRanters?
