Riddle me this…riddle me that…who’ll never show up in a movie about the Bat?

Simple answer: Dane Cook.  Long answer: the same but it involves numerous non-work safe expletives, a brief seizure and cries about “any justice in the world”.

But that hasn’t stopped the thoroughly unfunny comedian from trying!  He’s apparently trying to get his foot in the door of one of the Batman movies to try his hand at playing The Riddler, a concept that Jim Carrey pretty much destroyed for all time with HIS portrayal of same.

When asked how Cook would play such a role, possibly in sheer disbelief that the moron would even suggest such a sacrilege, Cook said that he’d play it like “The Crow…only more comedic”.

Like that putz even knows what comedy IS.  Look, you want comedy?  Go get Denis Leary. He’d make a sweet Riddler.  Have some fun with it–get Gabriel Iglesias.  A fluffy Riddler would be awesome. They could let out one of Matthew Lesko’s suits and we’d be off to the races!

Don’t worry, though, folks–as long as Chris Nolan’s in charge I doubt you’ll ever see Dane Cook in a Batman movie.

It appears that comedian and actor Dane Cook is not happy with the poster for upcoming Lionsgate comedy My Best Friend’s Girl. In a posting on his MySpace page, the actors calls the film an “edgy comedy with a dash of romance” and “the funniest film I’ve done yet”, but then writes about the lackluster poster released for the film, calling it “boring, odd” and that it “has zero to do with the movie I performed in.”

“It sends the wrong message about our movie and I just wanted you to know, that I feel the pain,” he wrote. “I really love the film and I know from past missteps marketing wise that the wrong poster sends the wrong audience into the theater.”

The films opens on September 19.
