What he got right from his theory - The movie is heavily inspired by seven and zodiac - riddler actually won cause he achieved most of his goals - batman and riddler are both representing gotham's vengeance but they took different path What he got wrong - batman breaking his no killing rule - the court of owl

You’re lying if you say that Edward Nygma from Gotham wasn’t the best (current) incarnation of the Riddler. He’s neurotic, casually okay with murder, and opens just about every conversation with a quick riddle almost too fast to process.

I'll call this partially correct. While it was very much a Batman movie, unlike the title of your video, you were sort of right with "Batman will lose" He didn't see Riddler's big plan until the vans were exploding. He may have had a huge role in putting the Riddler in Arkham, and did stop the bloodbath Riddler had planned, but he didn't see Riddler's endgame until Gotham was being flooded.

[@lewistaylor6796]

After the second trailer dropped, The Court of Owls is even more likely to appear, since Bruce Wayne's dad was a part of it in some comics and there's that one scene where batman stands in the middle of a circle and in one of the sides it's written 'My father's sins'. Good one, Matpat!

[@OmegaX9]

Just to tempt fate, let’s actually take it a step further in the Se7en comparison and do the match-ups: Wrath: Batman, because “I am vengeance!” Greed: Catwoman, because she loves shiny things and hasn’t fought Batman enough times yet to have an interest in his “utility belt.” Envy: Riddler, because he sees himself as Batman’s friend and equal. Pride: The Court of Owls, because they’ve been running Gotham for centuries. Sloth: Falconers, the old gangster who’s let supervillains take over. Gluttony: Penguin, because he keeps eating up territory for himself Lust: Two-Face, because he represents Harvey Dent’s darkest desires set free (and because giving Catwoman Lust seems like too easy an out) EDIT: To everyone who's commented "What about Chatacter X?" or "Character Y is not in this movie", I made this based off of the characters MatPat listed in the video. There are plenty of Batman characters who are better fits to the 7 Deadly Sins (Envy is obviously Clayface) but these 7 were the ones MatPat used so I wanted to build on his theory.

[@Naruku2121]

I think what he means by that is that the justice system is very corrupt and people within it turn a blind eye to crime.

I'm very excited for the movie.

With the riddler in place of lex and batman in place of superman. I think the riddler believes batman is corrupt or corruptable. Maybe that fight scene is actually at the start of the movie and thats what makes the riddler target him. Maybe the riddler sees a difference between justice and brutality.

I have ONE cat and it’s a fair amount of money I have to spend per month, to provide food.

This video makes me think of Batman: The Long Halloween. In that storyline Batman is constantly one step behind a killer named Holiday who commits a series of murders on 13 holidays in the course of just over a year. The focus of the story is the conflicts between the old families of Gotham. There is even a point where Bruce Wayne is tied in as possible accomplice to one of the suspects. The more recent trailers have seen Bruce being called out for not doing enough to help the poor, so maybe he is targeted by someone stomping out greed in the city.

The thing with having 6 or more villains, they don't need to feature extensively and have an indepth storyline.
