Gotham

So, who watched the pilot?

 

I thought it was good start. "The Penguin" "The Riddler" "Poison Ivy" and Bruce Wayne were all introduced.

 

man I hope Jada Pinkett Smith was wearing some make up to make her look that way. Good thing penguins eat fish...

 

And the guy playing Jim Gordon is channeling his inner Russell Crowe.

I watched the pilot. wish they were a little more subtle about the villains felt a little cheesy at times with all the name drops. I'll keep watching. Interested to see how they introduce the joker(I'm thinking through the club trying out comedians)

Pretty decent show so far

[Jangler]

They said they will tease the Joker the entire season and bring him in next season. Multiple "possible" actors will be teased. The first of course being the comic.

 

The Penguin was GREAT. Wonderful job casting and acting. Hope we see more of the Riddler soon.

 

Catwoman sucked though. Little ninja girl with goofy goggles.

 

I didn't even connect with the comic being the Joker....maybe it was too obvious.

 

 

and I forgot all about Catwoman,

Ummm, last night was the second episode.

 

The show is great. I think that whoever appears on stage in the night club is a tease (a comedian named J Oker, an all girl band that looked like Harley Quinn). And you can see why Penguin is so fugged up.

[Jangler]

yes, I started the thread hours before the second episode...

Like the casting so far. 

[scpanther22]

Yes, yes it was. This thread was started a week late.

 

I wasn't feeling last night's episode. Love the Penguin though. Riddler too. I wish he got more time. Interesting tidbit: the guy that poured the wine in the club to the crime boss, then got beat up, was called Lazlo. I did some Googling and there is a Batman villain named Professor Pyg (real name Lazlo) who is super crazy and wears a pig mask. Well, if you saw the previews for next week, there is a dude in a pig mask!

 

Cat ... girl's eyes are WAY too far apart. It's creepy.

 

She was cast in part because how much she looks like Michelle Pfeiffer..

needs more batman

I thought the second episode was less campy than the first. I like the casting of the show a lot. So shipping the kids to asia, is that a raz aghul (sp?) thing?

Ra's is going to be the Arrow big bad this season but apparently these shows take place in different universes. so maybe they'll have two versions on tv at the same time.

Love the show so far.  Robin Lord Taylor is stealing it so far, love his take on the penguin, which is one of the more forgettable characters in the whole Batman universe to me.

How can you forget a giant iceberg casino?

Tying it in nicely so far.  Would like to see more training of Bruce Wayne.  But the character building is great so far.
