An Open Letter to DC Fans

An Open Letter to DC Fans

Following the release of the Jason Momoa images portraying him as the king of Atlantis in Aquaman and with the release last week of Melissa Benoist in her Supergirl outfit I’m starting to notice a horrible terrible trend those in the DC fandom are perpetuating. You are all complaining way too much. I’m not your […]

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 10 “Lovecraft”

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 10 “Lovecraft”

Gotham’s season 1 finale aired this week and it is…well, ridiculous. But we do get to see Bruce Wayne hopping from roof to roof. As Selina teaches Bruce to balance (and continues to be obsessed with kissing him), an assassin makes her way into the Manor. Alfred attempts to subdue her as Selina and Bruce […]

Gotham Season 1, Episode 9 “Harvey Dent” – Even Cobblepot can’t save this episode

Gotham Season 1, Episode 9 “Harvey Dent” – Even Cobblepot can’t save this episode

Gotham’s latest episode titled “Harvey Dent” was really just a filler episode that set up some major events for next week. Barbara left Gordon at the end of the last episode because she is unable to handle his life. I won’t go into how I feel about her because I know it would get too […]

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 8 “The Mask” – Nananana…Woah, Too Soon!

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 8 “The Mask” – Nananana…Woah, Too Soon!

Gotham’s eighth episode “The Mask” continued to irritate me in regards to Bruce Wayne. Remember how I’ve mentioned that Gotham is developing Bruce Wayne’s character way too early on? Well, they didn’t listen to me (how rude) and his character took a huge step towards becoming Batman. Now that Bruce has returned to school after […]

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 7 “Penguin’s Umbrella” – The Penguin is a Golden Goose

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 7 “Penguin’s Umbrella” – The Penguin is a Golden Goose

Gotham‘s latest episode “Penguin’s Umbrella” is full of Penguin’s awesome manipulations, but the show is beginning to get a little boring. Oswald Cobblepot is alive and everyone is freaking out. Mooney wants her guys to bring Bullock in to find out how this could be. He’s given the task to kill Gordon for defying Falcone’s […]

Gotham Season 1, Episode 6 “Season of the Goat” – That time there was a creepy sponge bath

Gotham Season 1, Episode 6 “Season of the Goat” – That time there was a creepy sponge bath

Gotham’s sixth episode, titled “Season of the Goat,” is full of fun nods to Edward Nygma’s future character, to who Bullock used to be, and to who Cobblepot is quickly becoming. A decade ago, Bullock was a rookie just like Gordon is now. He was eager to find murderers, thieves, and other criminals. Bullock and […]

A deadly drug takes over Gotham, Bruce’s obsession takes over his life, and Gordon is taken by Maroni. Find out what else happened in Gotham’s fourth episode, “Viper”.

Gotham Season 1, Episode 4 “Arkham” – Poisoned Cannolis

Gotham Season 1, Episode 4 “Arkham” – Poisoned Cannolis

The crime bosses want control of Arkham, but neither Cobblepot nor Gordon want to give it to them. The focus of Gotham’s fourth episode, which aired on Fox, this week was who’ll gain control of Arkham Asylum. As we know from last week’s episode, Oswald Cobblepot is already back in Gotham. He showed up at […]

Gotham Season 1, Episode 3 “The Balloonman” – Vigilantes, Fencing, and a Questionable Moral Compass

Gotham Season 1, Episode 3 “The Balloonman” – Vigilantes, Fencing, and a Questionable Moral Compass

Now that Gotham’s got most of its characters established and has set the stage for what’s to come, “The Balloonman” shows us what Gotham really is: a cop show. And a pretty good one at that. In comparison to the first two episodes of the season, which were chock full of character cameos, action, more […]

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 2 “Selina Kyle” – Kitties and Penguins steal the show

Gotham: Season 1, Episode 2 “Selina Kyle” – Kitties and Penguins steal the show

After a pretty decent pilot, Gotham returned with a much better second episode titled “Selina Kyle”. While the pilot episode focused much more on Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor), this episode, inferred by the title, focus more on the pretty acrobatic young girl who witnessed the Wayne murder. But in […]

Gotham Pilot: A Batman Show with No Batman

Gotham Pilot: A Batman Show with No Batman

Gotham is another comic book TV show in a long line of comic book TV shows – Marvel Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The Flash, Arrow, Constantine… However, Gotham is different: this is a superhero show with no superhero; there is no Batman in a Batman show. Gotham is concerned with two people, at least in the […]

Each of the actors look well-suited to their roles. Bruce Wayne looks appropriately pensive and Ivy Pepper, as young Poison Ivy is both enchanting and downright creepy.  Jada […]

GOTHAM now has it’s Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle

GOTHAM now has it’s Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle

Now, before you start working on your grovelly voices and start putting on your Batman masks, remember this. Gotham is NOT about Batman. It is about the origin story of Commissioner James Gordon and the villains that made Gotham famous. Gotham is based on characters established by DC Comics. The series regulars are Ben McKenzie […]
