I think the The Riddler should be played by Joseph Gordon - Levitt. JGL justs spews Riddler. The Penguin could be played by Leonardo Dicaprio. People may think i am just picking these actors because of the recent sucess of Christopher Nolan's "Inception" which stars Leonardo Dicaprio and Joseph Gordon - Levitt. But i have chosen these actors because they are both amazing actors who also fit the roles. ANother actor who might be good for the penguin is Billy Zane
My idea could totally be false it is just a creation of mine. criticism is welcome.
