The Penguin

[CaptainWacky]

I hope he eats raw fish and goes "WAUGH" at some point.

I liked the movie The Batman and Colin Farrell is a very good actor (Cristin Milioti is good too), I'm sure this will be a good show, but I feel it should all be a bit crazier being set in Gotham City? There should be a guy in a big hat with guns coming out his hat or something.

I thought the first episode was quite good. Farrell does a very good job as Oswald, but it's hard not to notice the prosethetics and wonder if he could be more expressive without them. Cristin Milioti was good as crazy mob lady.

It is a bit weird that Penguin isn't worried at all about Batman, considering Batman was the one who got rid of Falcone (a week ago!) and chased Penguin in his big scary black car. But I guess if they mention him too much it'll create the expection he might appear in the show (he won't.)

I keep seeing adverts for it.

 

[CaptainWacky]

He didn't eat any raw fish.

Now I won't watch it!

Batman is busy helping victims of the sea wall disaster. I'm sure his alter ego Bruce Wayne is also busy helping the sea wall disaster victims.

I must have had the wrong side on and ended up watching the twix.

They made a TV show about a candy bar?

Second episode was good. I like how Oz is just kind of making it up as he goes along, jumping from plan to plan and person to person. Shohreh Aghdashloo is in a lot of stuff!

Weird move leaving ten days between episodes 1 and 2 though.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Fourth episode was great with Sofia's flashbacks.

I guess John Turturro was busy with Severance so they had to recast.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Why does Sofia get hotter the more people she kills...

Shohreh Aghdashloo is in a lot of stuff!

The way she died was kind of stupid.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Oz really wants to fuck his mom, huh.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Finale was really good. It was a good show overall, but I thought it maybe sagged a bit in the middle and got a bit silly at times (maybe didn't quite fit the tone of the movie?)

I'm glad they didn't kill off Sofia. Seems like she could be in the next movie given that there will probably be scenes in Arkham (there usually are!) and they set up her relationship with Selina.

Poor Vic.

LOL at Oz making his girlfriend/prostitute dress up as his mom at the end holy shit.

THE BAT SIGNAL, THAT'S THE SIGNAL FOR BATMAN.

Did anyone else watch this show please respond.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Did no one else watch this? It's good. I would have thought someone else would have watched this.

I watched it. Never posted though. Trying to avoid spoilers since I always watched it a day or two after it aired.

So Catwoman is a Falcone/Gigante? Is that comic book accurate? I don't know. I read mostly Superman comics.

 

[CaptainWacky]

She is Carmine Falcone's bastard daughter in this continuity as revealed in the movie The Batman. Apparently she is in the comic's too though only in the last twenty years or so.
