***** I think they could have worked a toned down Penguin in as a crime lord and done with Riddler what they did with Joker. One more film between Dark Knight and Rises with these two in would have been great for me.
***** Maybe he just wanted to do villains that hadn't been done in the movies before, apart from Joker of course cause they have to have him. But if he just did all the same villains from the older movies, they might have been seen as remakes rather than original movies
San Mattew Because he's not a real person, he's a fictional character of the DC universe and Robin Taylors performance is fantastic. My favorite depiction of the Penguin. Don't tell me you weren't rooting for him when Galavan... or.. "Dumas" was trying to take over the city.
Gotham doesn't really feel like a Batman show to me because: 1) No Batman (Bruce Wayne as a kid doesn't count) 2) The villains don't really look like traditional Batman villains Also, if Gotham is a prequel to the Nolan movies, why doesn't it take place in the past? Why is it set in the present? That makes no sense.
Well, I'm also kinda here because of Gotham. It's my favorite portrayal of the Penguin but I also really love Danny DeVito's and Meredith Burgess' version. I guess Robin Taylor was born for the role idk

Love the Penguin and always did; comedic or otherwise (Devito's portrayal is too much for me though). He doesn't really seem to be as popular as some other Batman villains--sure, he's well-known, but people haven't seemed to have paid as much attention to him. Real shame because going off of this backstory/what the comics expand upon it, there's plenty of pathos to him. At least Gotham seems to be giving him some credit, albeit with a different backstory (Robin Lord-Taylor is the bomb by the way).
Paige Hankins Yeah danys version is way too inaccurate. Gotham is definitely the best version and most accurate to the penguin. The 60s penguin is sort of similar to the penguin in his early days and penguin triumphant which is a final appearance of the classic white collar criminal mastermind penguin. The most popular penguin is the one in the animated series/films and arkham games where he is a mob boss like the godfather or the kingpin with the iceberg loungs like in the comic book the penguin returns. Also the one from the comic penguin pain and prejudice is a popular one similar to gotham. I really enjoy the penguin on gotham. They do a very good job showing all the best stuff of the penguin. How he is a gray villian not good or bad and very unpredictable like loki from marvel. He also is master manipulater and always has a plan up his sleeve. The penguin is a way better character than the joker that hasnt gotten enough attention for a long time untill now with gotham. His character just has so many things about him which makes him a way better character than the joker. The penguin and the riddler are my top 2 favorite batman villians
Jeremiah Mendez i agree. I like that penguin way better than all versions of the joker as well. The penguin and the riddler are my 2 favorite batman villians.
1985 Charles Barkley I prefer The Penguin Man Of The Sewers over the comic version of The Penguin any day. I found The Penguin from the comics to be on the silly side
I love the fact that penguin has almost always just been a monster. I’m disappointed that they couldn’t include him in the Christopher Nolan movies as one of the many crime bosses that ran the underworld in the first two movies
I think the cool thing about The Penguin is that he's not just a Batman villain, he's a Bruce Wayne villain. Both Wayne and Cobblepot are Gotham's favourite sons, but while Wayne uses his fortune to help the needy and vulnerable, Cobblepot only cares for enriching himself. But at the same time, Cobblepot has that inferiority complex, due to being unattractive and not well liked. He wants to be feared, but he also wants to be loved. He looks at somebody like Bruce Wayne, who represents everything that he is not, and he resents him.
+Miles prower nicholson was and always is the best interpretation of joker the man outside of the acting is a total nutcase for real who is more intimidating than heath ledger
+Ice Sledge So, you're just going to ignore Hamill's many performances as the Clown Prince of Crime? He's the best version of the Joker outside of the comics.
TV series Gotham's Penguin has become one of my all time favorite vilains, his origins there and character progression is amazing. Who would have thought.
ahmed mohamed he was coerced by some men to rob the chemical factory under the criminal gise of red hood which many criminals used in the past then when trying to remove his hood he leaned on part of the frame which broke and caused him to fall into the vat of acid
I was lucky enough to meet the first performer to portray:"The Penguin"..Burgess Meredith in NYC..years ago..unlike his comic villain character..he was a sweet and kindly gentleman.
Penguin is always a personal favorite because he usually wouldn't get caught easily, not to mention he was always able to slip in and out. Though in the latest Gotham's Penguin, he is much more devious and also calculating, he doesn't appear as super villain, but more the factor of his situation. One thing I do remember that the Penguin was often times much more than his mother's child, he was also shunned by his father due to some family issues
My fav penguin is the one in Gotham. Love it even more when he teams up with the riddler. I definitely finished Gotham with my favorite characters being Penguin and Riddler.
So the police arrested batman, had him detained, and didn't bother to take his mask off or fingerprint him orrr like found out who he was? So they could still pursue the criminal who stole a priceless artifact? Or at least know who the fuck the masked vigilante who the entire police force has been racking their brains to find out the identity of? Everything checks out to me.
Penguin from BTAS will always be my favourite! With an episode like "Birds of a feather" That really depict the penguin genuinely trying to quit crime but with the tragic nature of the show you just know it won't work. It's also great for villains like Mr freeze and Baby-doll, even making the iconic Harley Quinn.
+Victor Braun i agree i feel they got it wrong that savage version of penguin is supposed to be the hidden side of him, the majority of the time he should appear more like a gentleman and businessman
Eric Coldfire Nothing in the origin of The Joker mentioned that he was a hippy with bad make up and scars on his cheeks who keeps changing the story of how he got those scars
ProMonarchyGenius You think that just because I hate Tim Burton's shitty Batman Returns, it means I like Nolan's shitty Dark Knight Trilogy? Big surprise that the "worst Batman movies ever" aka Batman Forever and Batman and Robin got more right with Batman than Nolan and Burton.
I Wanted a New Batman film with Penguin being the main villain. Trick Umbrellas, Outsmarting Batman, and overall looking like him, with Top hat and all.
The Penguin had the most horrific backstory his own parents tried to drown him as a baby when they threw him in a river because of his looks and he ended up growing up as a freak show performer in a circus
Eric Coldfire If it was not for Tim Burton writing the story of Batman Returns the movie would have been a 2 hour long episode of the Adam West show from the 1960s with The Penguin and Catwoman going on a treasure hunt under Wayne Manor and yes that was the original script for Batman Returns which thank God that Tim Burton scrapped that story and wrote a new script for Batman Returns and yes some elements of the original script of Batman Returns found it's way in Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever with Two Face and The Riddler going to Wayne Manor and trashing the Batcave
ProMonarchyGenius That was the original script for Batman Returns? That sounds ten times better than what happened in Batman Return's final product, and it sounds a hell of a lot more consistent. People like to talk that Joel Shumacher ruined Batman, but no, Tim Burton ruined Batman in ways that far surpass Batman and Robin.
+scarves-n-converse I know. It annoys me too. That was one thing that annoyed me about the Nolan Batman trilogy that they pronounced it Raz instead of Raysh.
I actually died inside everytime they pronounced it wrong in the Nolan movies, I was like "ALL THESE MOVIES ARE RUINED NOW". I'm just glad it was right in the video games and animated series
If anyone here want to read a really good Penguin story, I recommend 'Penguin: Pain and Prejudice'. Its such a good story its essentially the Killing Joke for the Penguin.
TheAmazingSpider-Man979 I hate The Amazing Spiderman because Andrew Garfield's portrayal of Peter Parker reminds me of Edward Cullen the sparkling vampire from the Twilight Saga and BTW Batman Returns is the greatest movie of all time
Nolan could have easily imagined a realistic interpretation of the Penguin if he'd wanted to. He did a great job any way in my opinion but I think the Penguin deserves more respect and a serious interpretation like Scarecrow and Two-Face got.
What makes Penguin unique is that unlike majority of Batman's villains who are insane such as Joker, Two-Face, Scarecrow etc, Penguin is probably the sanest.
I personally prefer the Penguin from the comics and the movies over Gotham's version. It's not that I don't like Gotham's version, I do enjoy it but I love the Penguin who is overweight, short and not really handsome but classy. I also dont know much of Gotham, just started it (but yes it's good) and I kinda grew up with the old chubby Ozzy with his odd love for birds. Guess I'm one of a few who likes the comic version better xD But that's cool. Love&hugs :)
Next thing you know we'll have "The Jocker" "The Pinguin" "The Ryddler" "The Katewoman" and "Toe-Face". All it takes is one bloated and hyper marketed hollywood summer blockbuster. :)
Riddler was an overly curious child which got him yelled at, Killer Croc was born with a deformity, Scarecrow was abused by his grandma, and locked in a church full of crows, Two-Face was abused by his father. You're right :D
Very nice tribute to the Penguin, one of my favorite Batman villains and probably the most sympathetic one. Tim Burton ruined the character in the movie, but then he ruined the Batman franchise, too, by substituting substance with his idea of "style". I'd like to see the Penguin return in a movie directed by someone who actually cares about story.
Shame we never got to see Penguin and Riddler in the Nolan universe.
Hate the riddler
From the way the Penguin is depicted here, Nathan Lane would've been a very good choice.
They were probably too "unrealistic" or just didn't fit with the dark tone that Nolan was going for.

The only Penguin portrayals that I like is the Pain & Prejudice series and Fox's Gotham's Oswald Cobblepot/Penguin. Never was too found of Devito's.

I love the fact that the Penguin wears his monocle, even in the midst of martial arts bouts. That takes some skill.....
Has anyone else noticed that Batman's four biggest villains (Joker, Penguin Riddler, and Two-Face) all wear business suits.
Am I the only one who thought that Danny devito as the penguin was the most terrifying thing ever. HE BIT OFF THAT GUYS NOSE.
