Honestly Riddler was Kinda Based Until The Final Act When He Started Targeting Random Civilians

Did everyone including OP just not pay attention to final plan?
>Blow up vans in key positions near Gotham waterline
>Flood lower districts forcing elite in Diamond District to take shelter in stadium
>Riddler's followers are already in position to shoot the mayor, judges, and anyone else in a high position of Gotham government because he wants a clean slate to ensure corruption is destroyed
Anything else was purely acceptable losses to him, but not the intended goal
Tyler Miller
its the clasic case of making villans way more evil that they need to be at the 3rd act
Brody Long
See also: Killmonger from Black Panther. "Oh shit, we accidentally made our villain have a sensible motivation, possibly even better than the hero's" "Have him randomly choke a lady lmao"

>Create a villain that has a 100% justified issue with society
>Then have them do something comically evil that has nothing to do with that issue to show they're a bad guy
Normies lap it up
Jonathan Myers
But that made him even based-er?

user that's what people like him would do IRL
Kevin Martin
>Black Panther
Killmonger is still a psycho.
>Joker
But Arthur is a villain since the moment he kills those three idiots at the subway. Joker is the origin of a villain. Of course he will go from a victim to a monster.

The Riddler shouldn't be a "well intentioned" villain he should be an attention whore only in it for his own ego. But then they altered his design to the point of being unrecognizable so I shouldn't be surprised his motives are completely different too
Christopher Morgan
None of Killmongers plan were sensible. But you overlooked the moment when he burned the flowers before choking out the lady who was questioning his choices
Aiden Williams
>The Riddler shouldn't be a "well intentioned" villain
He never was. It showed that when he tried to ki Bruce Wayne. Someone who isn't corrupt and by all means hasn't done anything wrong, but the Riddler attacked him because of what Thomas Wayne did.

>He's a narcissist that is murdering people, but they are rich ergo it is fine!
>W-W-What?! He's a narcissist that is murdering rich people AND he doesn't care about us?! W-W-W-WHAAAAT?! It's is not fine!
>Vengeance won't save this city?! noooooooooo!
Noah Robinson
> tried to ki Bruce Wayne
Riddler went full saiyan on him?
William Flores
Riddler charged up the spirit bomb using the social discontent of all the people in his chatroom

Him calling out Wakanda for being isolationist is pretty sensible. Now naturally, the real sensible thing is for calling out Wakanda for letting Africa become a shithole, but it's a movie for burgers, so they had to make it about America somehow.
Camden Reyes
Americans are one of the reasons why Africa IS a shit hole.
Remember the coups? The CIA shit? USA is imperialist as fuck.
Andrew Rodriguez
Technically it's the entirety of Europe's fault, with all the colonialism bullshit and whatnot
Asher Carter
Fucking lefties I swear
Aiden Rogers
But that's how real life villains work.
