Jim Carrey: Riddler • Edward Nygma

Batman Forever

Riddler • Edward Nygma

The Riddler: Riddle me this, riddle me that, who's afraid of the big, black bat?

The Riddler: You're ruining my big party! Are you insane?
Two-Face: Just waiting for you to deliver the Batman, dear boy.
The Riddler: Patience, O Bifurcated One!
Two-Face: Patience is hell! We want him dead!
The Riddler: Well, you could have let me in on the caper. We could have organized this, planned it... pre-sold the movie rights.
Two-Face: Ha!
[Batman enters through the skylight, and begins to fight Two-Face's thugs]
The Riddler: Your entrance was good. His was better.
[Batman continues to fight thugs]
The Riddler: The difference: showmanship!

Batman: I see without seeing. To me, darkness is as clear as daylight. What am I?
The Riddler: Please! You're as blind as a bat!
Batman: Exactly.
[throws a batarang at his throne]

The Riddler: [to Two-Face, who has just blown a hole in the ceiling of his lair] Has anybody ever told you you have a SERIOUS IMPULSE-CONTROL PROBLEM?

Edward Nygma: [as Fred dangles at the edge of the broken window over the water chasim] Fred, Babe, you are fired, or should I say: Terminated!
[lets Fred fall to his death]
Edward Nygma: Surfs up, Big Kahona!
[splash]
Edward Nygma: Ooooo, nice form, but a little rough on the landing. He may have to settle for the bronze.
[laughs]

The Riddler: Why? Why can't I kill you? Too many questions. Too many questions.
Batman: Poor Edward. I had to save them both. You see, I'm both Bruce Wayne and Batman, not because I have to be, now, because I choose to be.

Two-Face: [He cries on seeing a newspaper report of Batman's latest escape]
The Riddler: That's what I said. Then I taught my doggie a new trick: how to map the human mind. Would you like to see what our old friend Bruce Wayne has in his head?
The Riddler: [he plugs in the disk with Bruce Wayne's memory; on the screen they see the image of the giant bat. Two-Face starts laughing] Riddle me this, what sort of a man has bats on the brain? Go ahead, you can say it.
Two-Face: You're a genius!
The Riddler: Oh, stop!

The Riddler: [after being defeated] Why? Why can't I kill you? Too many questions. Too many questions.
Batman: Poor Edward. I had to save them both. You see, I'm both Bruce Wayne and Batman. Not because I have to be. Now... because I choose to be.
The Riddler: [Batman holds out his hand, as he backs away as he sees a bat] AAAAHHH! AHHHHGH! AAAAGH!

The Riddler: [Chase has told the Riddler that Batman will come for her; imitating Cesar Romero's Joker] Batman? Batman, you say? Coming for you?
The Riddler: [laughs] I'm... COUNTING ON IT!

The Riddler: [of Two-Face's Lair] I simply love what you've done with the place. Heavy Metal meets House and Garden.

Two-Face: What?
The Riddler: I hope you made extra.
Two-Face: Who the hell are you?
The Riddler: Just a friend. But you can call me... the Riddler.
Two-Face: [grabs Riddler by the collar] We'll call you dead, more likely! How did you find us here?
The Riddler: But then if I talked, what would keep you from killing me anyway, O Bifurcated One?
The Riddler: [looks at Two-Face's disfigurement] By the way, that's never gonna heal if you don't stop picking.
Two-Face: Oh?
Two-Face: [puts pistol to Riddler's head] Let's see if you bleed green!
The Riddler: Harvey! I don't think it's me you really want to kill. That'd be too easy for someone as sophisticated as you... and you. But Batman...
The Riddler: [gasps] Now, there's a challenge! Kill the Bat! Sounds like a good idea!
The Riddler: [Two-Face feigns modesty] Just think of it, a few bullets hit home, a quick splash of blood, and then what? Wet hands... post-homicidal depression.
The Riddler: [whimpers] I can help you get Batman.
The Riddler: [looks at Two-Face's pistol] That is if you'll spare my life for just a few moments.
Two-Face: [cocks his head in amusment and puts his gun away] Heh...
The Riddler: Thank you.

Dr. Chase Meridian: [Edward is hiding in the shadows of his cell in Arkham Asylum] Edward?
Edward Nygma: Who is it?
Dr. Chase Meridian: It's Dr. Meridian; Chase. Do you remember me?
Edward Nygma: How can I forget?
Dr. Chase Meridian: Dr. Burton tells me that you know who Batman is.
Edward Nygma: I can't tell you if you don't say "please".
Dr. Chase Meridian: Edward, please. Who is Batman?
Edward Nygma: [leaps out from the shadows with his outfit in the shape of a bat costume] I'M... Batman!

The Riddler: Hey Two-Face, show me how to punch a guy!
Two-Face: Oh, it's dead simple, my boy.
Two-Face: [demonstrates] Ball up the fist, reach way back, and assert yourself.
[knocks guard out with one punch]
The Riddler: Ohhhh, that looks like fun! Let me try! Let me try! Ball up the fist, reach way back, and assert your...
[hits guard with no effect and holds his hand in agony]
The Riddler: OW!
