The Batman's Credits Scene Should Be A Familiar Experience For Bat-Fans
Warning! SPOILERS for The Batman.
The Batman's credits scene teasing more Riddler should be a familiar experience for Batman-obsessed fans who have played the Batman: Arkham video games. The main story of Matt Reeves' Batman reboot pits Robert Pattinson's Dark Knight against Paul Dano's Riddler as the corrupt nature of Gotham is fully exposed. Riddler kills politicians, police commissioners, and more as he attempts to shine a light on everything wrong with this city. While The Batman's ending does see Riddler defeated, the credits also deliver a tease that there are still more games to play.
Batman only captures Riddler after the villain kills Carmine Falcone, but being locked up in Arkham is actually part of his ultimate plan. He planted bombs around Gotham to flood the city and remains in Arkham to watch the final stage of his plan unfold. This includes Riddler being paired next to a mysterious inmate played by Barry Keoghan, which is confirmed to be Joker. Although this is an exciting tease that Joker and Riddler could partner up in The Batman 2, the movie left room for another surprise to come after the credits finished rolling. Superhero movies have made this a staple of the genre, but The Batman forgoes a typical sequel tease by having Riddler's type «Goodbye» on the screen, which then glitches to remind viewers of the villain's website.
