Let’s Talk About Some Batman Casting Decisions

The Sun is reporting today that Eddie Murphy will be playing the role of The Riddler in the new Batman flick, tentatively being titled Gotham.

Other Batman castings: Shia LaBeouf as Robin (confirmed) and Rachel Weisz as Catwoman (rumored). Christian Bale and Michael Caine will be reprising their roles. />The Sun is reporting today that Eddie Murphy will be playing the role of The Riddler in the new Batman flick, tentatively being titled Gotham.

Pearls of Wisdom from Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton Miz Hilton recently participated in Esquire's "What I've Learned" feature. You can read the full thing here, but I've included all the best parts below: There are definitely a lot of misconceptions about me out there. "Oh, she doesn't work. She doesn't do anything.

Everyone was so excited that I was born, they would a...
