Is that show Gotham really legit?

Strikta · 11-04-2014, 07:58 PM

I need more opinions before I invest the time.

Usually I'm not for 'reg TV' series.. but I've actually been hearing nothing but good things about it.

Thoughts/opinions?

uh-oh · 11-04-2014, 08:06 PM

you up on homeland?

Fart · 11-04-2014, 08:07 PM

I don't think it's very good no. Decent but not on par with premium shows at all

it's almost like you have to know the history of Batman lore to understand most of it

It's amazing. I had my doubts considering the timeline and youthfulness of the characters, but it's one hell of an origin story for many ppl. From the Gotham underworld to Bruce Wayne, Harvey Bullock, Jim Gordon, Barbara Gordon, Catwoman, Victor Zazz, Penguin, Toymaker, Fish, the evolution of Banes' s Venom drug, etc.

It's very compelling. Covers much of the Batman universe with different ways to tie in the characters. I love it.

I think it's pretty nice... to art's point, it's no like breaking bad or SOA or some shit --- but i think it's a cool spin, and pretty raw for a superhero/comic spinoff.

it's cool to see the characters evolve... i wasnt like a batman buff, so it took a few episodes before i started catching on to shit like 'ohh damn, that's gonna be 2 face eventually... or the riddler, etc.'...

anyway, it's cool enough to keep me watching

i'm definitely less sure about Flash

I think it's strange that he works for GPD. Idk how close that is with the comics, it has been forever and my memory betrays me but it doesn't feel right. Perfect casting for him, though.

I love seeing all the corruption Jim Gordon is facing. Nearly everybody is corrupt from government to the GPD. It really does his character justice. Harvey Bullock is such an intriguing character as you see how he used to be like Gordon but his old partner influenced him to become the no good piece of shit that he is today.

Also how the show goes into detail on how Bruce Wayne became his own detective.

Rawn MD · 11-04-2014, 08:38 PM

Aint read thread, dont have time, but Yes @Strikta its dope IMO

Strikta · 11-04-2014, 08:55 PM

Word word.. appreciate the comments & y'alls take.

Will give it a shot.
@uh-oh.. nah bro, I sure ain't... gotta def get back into it.

Same here man, I never watched a ton of Batman growing up but I knew a few characters an bad guys, y'all just blew my mind mentioning the riddler lmao

uh-oh · 11-04-2014, 09:05 PM

last homeland episode was pretty dope

thats all i got

IM OUT

Strikta · 11-04-2014, 09:09 PM

I'ma get caught up.

Swerve · 11-04-2014, 11:01 PM

If you don't know who Victor Zsasz is, this show may not be for you.

But if you know your batman, this show is top 5 on right now, tbh.

Fart · 11-04-2014, 11:36 PM

Yeah its only good if ure a batman fanboy tbh

Badweather · 11-05-2014, 07:11 PM

the show is way more silly than it portrayed in the scenes that were hyping the premiere.

i saw a couple of episodes and was thoroughly disappointed. don't watch it.

BROKE LESNAR · 11-05-2014, 07:13 PM

It's supposed to have Killer Croc, and I know Bane will be introduced soon.

Penguin's ascension has been terrific. He's a truly conniving villain.

Hush · 11-05-2014, 07:19 PM

I hear they brining Hush in : )

Haha. I bet they will. If Toymaker can be in it I see no reason to exclude Hush.
