I believe SINSULL is perhaps confused.
Nicholson played the Joker in the 1989 Batman film that also starred Kim Basinger, with Michael Keaton as Batman and Burton directing.
The Riddler character appeared in the 1995 Batman Forever film, was portrayed by Jim Carrey. In that film, the director was Joel Schumacher, Batman was played by Val Kilmer.
The '95 film also has a very pathetic performance by the usually excellent Tommy Lee Jones.
But let's remember, none of these films are going to make the list of AFI's 100 best of all time, including this year's blockbuster.
People tend to applaud their own memories more than actually performances.
