The clues were a series of riddles that had 13, 1, 8, and 5 somewhere in their text. Try letters of the alphabet, you wind up with MAHE. What if 1 and 8 was 18? 13, 18, 5 is MRE. “Mister E.” “Mystery!” “And what’s another word for mystery?” “Enigma!” Mister E. Nygma. Edward Nygma."
Which manages to be extremely basic yet such a stretch at the same time.
It helped me understand what the hell was going on with Batman Forever when I realized that the whole thing was riddled with tributes to the Adam West Batman.
Once Jim Carrey gets up a head of steam, he is doing a full on impersonation of Frank Gorshin as the Riddler. Look at Gorshin in this scene. Carrey is doing an incredible Gorshin act.
Now I don’t want that and I don’t appreciate it, but once I understood where all of the camp in Forever came from it didn’t make me quite so angry.
It was a callback to Batman from 1966, that’s how they solved all the crimes lmao. The Schumacher Batman movies were supposed to be “90s camp”, which I can totally see now through my nostalgia goggles.

Nigma balls! Ha! Goteem!
Goteem? You mean Gotham.

Yea, but im pretty sure this is intentionally bad, instead of bad writing
