Except that I don't think his favorite movie would be a comedy, though - at least any movie that's thought of as a comedy, because its humor would appeal to normal people. I think his favorite movie would be something along the lines of A Clockwork Orange or Marathon Man, but he would find it hilarious.Chad Waltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03714201690840864468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-2314337210121547242008-11-14T11:07:00.000-05:002008-11-14T11:07:00.000-05:00Well, I don't know.

Somehow I think a darker comedy would appeal more to the Joker; something like <I>Arsenic and Old Lace, Dr. Strangelove,</I> or <I>Fargo</I>.<BR/><BR/><I>Mad Mad World</I>, with its race to solve the puzzle and find the hidden loot, seems like it would appeal more to the Riddler.
