Is anyone else a little bothered by the same actors popping up in all sorts of these sorts of movies?

It's like some actors have hard-ons for media which naturally has a geek-core to it. Someone mentioned Samual L. Jackson was going to be in Watchmen. Was Mace Windu not enough? Was appearing across multiple films as Nick Fury? Need I mention Snakes on a Plane?

Hugo Weaving? Agent Smith, V, Megatron, Elrond?

That said, yes, I'll go ahead and agree that Mr. Weaving could handle the suave, yet compulsive riddling that would be required of the part. I honestly do not think anyone of a similar fame level would be as good for it as he would, assuming they do The Riddler as he should be done.
