Integrity28 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Agreed. Much better than shield, that show is unwatchable IMO. Shield is a hot, wet fart. Terrible from the first minute I watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 It is getting better, the Commissioner Gordon is a badass He really is. My favorite character however is the penguin. He is brilliant. I agree with both of you here. I watch all 3 episodes last night, instead of watching my fantasy team lose to Michael Crabtree by .1 The only character I'm torn on right now is Alfred, I'm not entirely in love with the way he's being portrayed, but I want to give it time. The kid they found to play Cat has fantastic screen presence. I love the lighting so far, and a lot of the details... there is a presence of uniforms and attire that feels dated, as well as the car that Gordon and Bullock drive around in, and yet there are smart phones and a lot of modern nuances too. It's an interesting art direction in that it almost makes you not worry about when it is taking place, which I think has value for an origin story that we've seen so many adaptations of over so many decades.

Did you watch episode 4 yesterday as well? It was the best one yet imho. Agree with you on Alfred but I'm willing to give it time because of how well they're portraying all the other characters.

Jetlife33 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 I just think the flash is so corny so far. I've watched both episodes so far and found myself laughing at it both times. I'll give it more time because it's from the creators of Arrow so I'll hold out for some hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HessStation Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I tried and it annoyed me. I wanted to yell at them to stop yelling at each other. It seemed to over the top. IMO Sounds like a hit for real comic book fans though? Which is great! I like the idea of the show I guess more than at least what I saw from ep 1. I never read the comics so for me I was a little bit too ignorant and just wanted to know where the fuxk batman was.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it's working better as a straight up film noir, rather than a Batman background story. Sometimes the references to the Penguin or Catwoman are more distracting than anything else. As a crime drama in a city completely overrun by corruption in a sorta timeless graphic novel setting, it's really very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only watched the first episode... and I am a big fan of most of the Batman movies, stuff like Sin City and most well done film noir's. It's funny because after I posted that I watched the Riddler character being interviewed and looked up to find mostly all positive reviews. Judging from what you guys are saying to boot I will give it another try and a bit longer leash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an interest from many because there will always be a love of Batman characters, so new stories are always fun to experience. On the other hand, I think television has set such a high bar over the past 5 years, and Gotham comes off as a bit on the campy side. I'm of the latter. Which is a real shame because I've always been a huge Jim Gordon fan. He's integral in so many of the classic Batman stories. I may still give it another go, or jump back in for Season 2, I think they will get things down a little better with time. The Flash, however, is great. I was skeptical about Gustin after the pilot but it turns out he is a great Barry Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetworks Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I gave it 3 episodes and gave up. As a hardcore Batman comic fan, I had high hopes for the concept, but it just didn't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do understand this. Half of the time I stop noticing the Batman references. Mostly window dressing. but I do find the show very interesting and entertaining. Not sure why. I do know it go's well with cheese danish and a seltzer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
