Has he even had a successful movie in the last decade? All I can think off have been flops, including his most recent the Burt Wonderstone dog.
This is a good question, I had to look it up on IMDB and Box Office Mojo. Believe it or not, he's had a fair amount of box office success. Granted, he was saved on several occasions by the foreign receipts, but even that turd "Yes Man" made money.
He was a mediocre supporting actor as the Riddler in the Batman franchise.
Not as good as the guy on the old TV show though.
