What do you guys think of Gotham? Enjoying it so far in spite of the differences from the comics like the massive autist I am.
>>
>>81925488
It starts slow but gets better and they even drop the procedural format.

I like the characters and I think it's nice they are showing how Bruce grew into the Batman, it finally shows some of the humanity of the character which has been a lacking factor in recent years.
Also watching Gotham becoming more and more crazy without the "It's Batman's fault!" theme that has been pushed in these recente years
>>
I enjoyed it from the second episode. Think it's good all the way through.
>>
>>81925488
Balloon man is the first good episode imo
>>
>>81925559
That was the last one I watched, I liked how it showed the beginnings of the "freaks" - i.e the weird low power villains that Gotham produces - without him being a thing post Batman or being too OTT. I hope for more stuff like that.

No fucks given here. She is attractive. That said, it's one of the issues having people who are legal play character that move in very sexy ways yet are supposed to be younger. It's deceptive, and makes people feel creepy, when they really aren't. You are finding someone legally old enough to have sex attractive. Totally fine.

It's a fantastic elseworlds tale that nails the mix of 60's camp with burtonesque gothic that Schumacher failed to do.

It has what I feel the DC movies lack. A sense of joy. Which is odd given how gloomy everything is in the show, but it just has a sense of fun.

Which isn't to say I want the DC movies to be campy as fuck, but I just think this show proves that its perfectly possible to do capeshit with joy and fun without making it a comedy or a quipfest a la Marvel

And I say that as a fan of the Marvel films.

Eh, I love Gotham and Supergirl. It's the pure CW shows that tend to get grating after a while. The further something is from Guggenshit, the more likely it is to get consistantly better, it seems. Inverse is unfortunately true as well.

This. Her solo arc (you'll know when you hit it) is the worst part of the show

She's Will Smith's wife and during those episodes she had no purpose to be in the show, so she was probably given a solo arc just to give her screen time.

By the way, apparently The Mary Sue hated Gotham and only watched it for Babs and Fish, both of who were the fucking worst. When Fish left the show they got mad, and when Babs got "fixed" they got incredibly pissed.

It was pretty lol

Oh and they also hated Kristen and thought she should have stayed with her cop boyfriend

so far Cat has become nothing more than Bruces sidekick but I guess there is not much more you can do with her character.

Bruce has gotten better since mid season two and had some of the best scenes so far.

Bruce is fantastic. I see him gazing at Selina as she walks away, with that leer. You can see in his eyes he hates to let her go, but he knows it is his duty to follow his father's work. Excellent actor, he can convey so much, I see Batman in him very much.

Also based nygma best character

I like that it sets up his disconnect and detachment from relationships, and adds this layer that she becomes Catwoman so they can relate on that level in the future.

it's more that he's autistic.

I do like that Bruce and Selina are longtime friends. It's a really interesting element that's different from a lot of other media.

Also it supports Bruce x Selina being the endgame rather than Bruce x Talia (though I think Based Morrison finally ended that for good)

That was hilarious. Big criminal mastermind with plans based around people finding out his plans and when he is finally caught he does worse than all those common criminals he probably thinks are below him. Hell I think a purse snatcher's first grab wouldve been more successful than that trainwreck of an escape.

Yes. Even if he was beating her, they thought that allowing Nigma to date her was encouraging "nice guys" to be nice to women and not beat them

I kind of feel like Bruce should be a bit more into his self defense training now, while he's still a little kid. The earlier he focuses on that shit, the more believable (however slightly) it is that he becomes this master ninja martial artist who takes down Gotham's mobs in the future. So far, we've only seen him train twice.

He's apparently gotten very good at sneaking up on people, though.

So are they gonna come up with an explanation for why Gordon names his daughter after this crazy bitch?
>>
>>81941370
Rebound because Gordon is too much of a coward to go after Lee.
>>
>>81941209
lets be 100% honest here

you don't have to be a master ninja martial artist to beat people up. Personally, I never liked the whole "Bruce went to the Mysterious East to be trained by ninjas and became a ninja," which just reeks of Frank Miller.

I actually prefer him just being trained by Alfred and learning to take hits. It also plays into Burton's Batman pretty well, who was never a flippy speedy ninja. BurtonBats had a lot more of a plodding and weighty combat style - he was a brawler, not a kung fu expert. Sort of like Darth Vader.

>>81941370
She's his true waifu for one. They have history, and sort of complete each other. Even while he was with Lee he still had feelings for Babs.

Plus, we know Babs is Batgirl's mom. Barbara has always been Jim's endgame. Lee is probably Jim Jr's mom, which sort of works because Lee was kind of losing it towards Barbara while she was in a coma.

>>
>>81941641

Ninja training is not only about beating up people but includes other practical skills, like surviving techniques and stealth skills, of course he could learn those separately but saying he had ninja training includes a lot of things.

>>81941539

atleast Barbara isn't gonna give him shit for all the fucked up stuff he has to do. She knows now the other side of gotham, she knows Gordon has to cross the line sometimes.

>>81941953

she won't go to prison because now she is saaaaaaaaane
>>
>>81942389
Of course.
Gordon is too bound to Gotham, and for better or worse, Barbara is as well.
It's not gonna be healthy, but it's gonna work for them
>>
>>81942450
This. Gordon isn't a guy that could have worked with Lee. She didn't understand his sense of duty. She tried to seem supportive but she was a lot like Barbara was in the first part of season 1- she wanted him to run away and leave everything. He can't do that.

At least Babs, especially now, understands obsession like that.

I've got to say, though, I'm excited for what they might do with Jim and Babs. Barbara kept talking about Jim having a dark side, and she seemed Keane on seeing it. Babs becoming the little devil on Jim's shoulder is a pretty interesting prospect.
>>
>>81943089
>She didn't understand his sense of duty
Haha, sense of duty. Right, that was the problem.
>>
>>81943114

well, sense of duty is not exactly the same in gotham.
