    I can't think of the last season premiere of a show that had my eyes glued to the screen from beginning to end, no hyperbole. First off excellent writing by Lauren LeFranc with vivid dialogue and intense scenes. Secondly, the acting is masterclass especially from Colin Farrell who completely disappears once again as Oz but in a much significant role and Cristan Miloti is a pure unapologetic scene stealer. Finally, the atmosphere is so connected to the Matt Reeves Batmanverse that you can watch the 2022 film and this series right after, it just flows perfectly. If I had 3 arms I'd give it 3 Thumbs Way Up, and can't wait for more.

    I know that Batman won't be present in the series but it would be cool to see hints of his actions. More things like the newscasters in this episode mentioning Batman. Maybe show some guys being paranoid about being watched, or have one of penguins warehouses get raided by Batman off screen and they react to it. Basically just references to show that the Batman is still active even if he isn't on camera

    Killing Alberto was smartly done because they got a guy who's recognizable enough that you think "okay he's in the show he probably has a good role" and then he's dead in the first 5 mins. I like that actor too, great Bugsy Siegel in Boardwalk Empire

This might go down as one of the best series ever if it keeps going in this direction. I wish I could see 3 more episodes, lol.

    I really enjoy this version of Penguin, i think that making him more of a gangster and his own character rather than a bitter wealthy-man to mirror Bruce Wayne is the right way to go especially when this universe’s Batman is building himself up alongside Oz because then we don’t lose any parallels

  • @kaleirrion
    @kaleirrion หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I absolutely loved it. The writing is super crisp and polished and really gives such a propulsive feeling since everything is happening because of Oz's active choices, however impulsive. He's hugely sympathetic even though we knows he's a monster, and I love that the script gives us enough material to be conflicted. You can see how he really gave Vic a chance to plead his case, but if he hadn't said the right thing, Oz really would have killed him and thought it was too bad, but necessary.
    Oz is like an iceberg (no pun intended). There saw the very tip in the Batman, but there's so much more under the surface and I'm so excited to find out more. Sofia is also perfectly acted and she feels scary, like a true threat to Oz. Great protagonist/antagonist pairs are often mirrors of each other, and you can see that here too in how Sofia is also desperately fighting for respect and power.
    Such a great pilot episode. Can't wait for the season to unfold.

    For the name change, I honestly like it for this adaptation of the character - Cobblepot just sounds a bit too fancy for his person in this universe.
    I also think the shock with Alberto was done in a smart way and I enjoyed it.

  • @justthinkingoutloud2538

    He will always be Oswald Cobblepot as far as I'm concerned, and I'll always be editing it in my mind to imagine he's way shorter, but aside from those tiny pet peeves, I couldn't have been any more blown away by the start of this incredible series! I'm so glad to be back in this grimy, seedy, gorgeously gothic Gotham. The writing is so good, and it honestly just had me realizing how starved we've been of genuinely good storytelling in mainstream cinema and television for so long. So glad we have Matt Reeves to show us there's still talent and artistry in Hollywood, and in the superhero genre no less!

    • @Joshcoshbagosh
      @Joshcoshbagosh หลายเดือนก่อน

      Never really cared about Penguin's height personally and find it mostly irrelevant, but the name change is a bit odd. I mean its not in any way a big deal, but I also don't think most people ever viewed Cobblepot as an on the nose cartoon name in the same vein as Edward Nygma or Victor Fries. It was just a weird sounding name for a weird guy. Oh well

    • @justthinkingoutloud2538
      @justthinkingoutloud2538 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Joshcoshbagosh For me I feel his diminutive stature is a big part of his personality, it's a huge factor in why no one takes him seriously, and as a result he has a full-on Napoleon complex. I tried to dismiss it in The Batman, since I loved Colin Ferril's performance and figured it wasn't worth using forced perspective or other trickery, but the name change on top of that just makes me think all these little things that make him so unique and have been sources of ridicule his whole life were deliberately omitted as being unrealistic (more so than Batman's armor or magic contact lenses, apparently), resulting in him basically just being a normal guy with no real reason to have been bullied his whole life, which makes him a lot less interesting to me. But of course, like I said, Collin Ferrel's so great it's easy for me to ignore.

    • @Joshcoshbagosh
      @Joshcoshbagosh หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@justthinkingoutloud2538 Sure it CAN be a part of that. But I think you can still ultimately get the point across with his other physical ailments or attributes tbh. There are plenty of reasons to be bullied. Physically, I mean this version is still not exactly attractive and even has a gimp foot. Besides, there are going to be flashback moments in this series, so we will be getting a better idea of what exactly this version of Penguin has been through as the show goes on it seems. So I would say wait and see. Still, there is definitely an element of him being disrespected by the other mob guys for one reason or another. We saw that with Carmine, and we saw that just now with Alberto. It seems there are clearly reasons people don't particularly like him or take him as seriously as other gangsters. So I say wait and see. Plus, it's not the first depiction of Penguin not being extremely short tbf.

      Even though people dislike and make fun of the change to Penguin’s last name, that change could be a bit of foreshadowing in the making for all we know. Cobb is the same surname of the Court of Owls’ top enforcer Talon, whose actual name is William Cobb. And, at several points in this episode, Penguin was mentioned and shown to have two brothers….

    • @q94141
      @q94141 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That could be an interesting twist. I guess we’ll get a better “indication” of whether that’ll be true or not when he inevitably has to kill someone; whatever reaction he has to that could be potential foreshadowing of Zsasz’s obsessive “after-kill” habit of mutilating himself

    I really wasn't expecting Alberto to die in this episode. And as a reference to your other video after the 1st 10 minutes the story really gets going. I think Oswald really has an understanding of how Vic is, in a way that he sees himself in Victor. Like when it was said that Vic ambition and he was pleading to not be killed, no one really looked to Penguin at all for having a plan to go on and so in that moment I don't think Oz really wanted to kill him. I think he just wanted to get him riled up so that the planning could get started. The episode was so good that I literally watched the entire credits scene to see if there would be some snippet of a preview for the next episode.

    The first 10 minutes was just the perfect hook for the series..in that 1st monolgue we get to see that oz is a very self conscious guy, he doesn't like to be/feel embarrassed, and when he shoots alberto theres that moment he starts laughing after doing it..u can tell oz was laughing from stopping himself from busting into tears..al fucking embarrassed him and when it closes in on his face u can see the tears welling up..then he realizes what he just did on impulse n snaps outta it lol...i can imagine all oz can hear is his mom berading him "u gonna let this piss ant talk to u like that!?! Like ur just a lil pussy boy!".. the whole mom angle is fascinating as well man..that whole creepy "they a little too close" vibe u get from their interaction.. also oz having sympathy and comraderire with this kid with a stuttering disability, enough for oz to introduce him to his crazy ass fucking mother after one day! Lol.. he can tell oz sees himself in thst kid..this show is gonna make audiences root for oz like a antihero in batman 2 if they're not carful..he comes off way too sympathetic even with his ruthless side.. especially cuz it starting to look like he is the way he is cuz of his mom..he ain't just some heartless psychopath like Sofia is being set up to be that's for sure. Obviously iv only seen the one episode that's releases,but they set up expectations so damn well that we already care about the character as a person (atleast I do). Colin acting says ALOT about oz and his background without showing or outright telling us.. we can infer that oz is the way his is because of his mother, his disability, and everything that disability (took) from him..oz gives off that vibe of that kid who waa bullied to the point where the only way he can stop it is through physical violence..no one is gonna mess with the cripple dude who murders ppl that offend him right?... there is just so much of oz's personality that makes u want to sympathize with him. which is half the goal when it comes to a brand new series. Ppl will continue to watch the show because of OZ! not because it's set In the batman universe, not because we are hoping batman will pop up, ppl need to want to watch the show for him!! NOT batman. They achieved that imo atleast for me personally.

    I think this undoes the persona that penguin carried in the film. He was already falcones right hand and ran the iceberg loung. He literally had henchmen and dirty cops working for him but in this show he has to hire some kid that was trying to rip him off. He even takes that kid to his mother’s house after telling the kid that he would gut him and kill anyone he loves.

      @trevordavid1370 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      I feel like it's more of he had power when Falcone was alive. Falcone liked him so he let him "run" the club and probably gave him more connections to the city i.e goons and cops. Now he knows he can't really trust anyone ( maybe the goons from the drops factory.....but again remember he's more of a "manager" than the owner) so it's better to establish new connections. Anyway that's my two cents 🙃🤷🏾‍♂️

    I watched The Batman before I watched episode one and that was definitely THE way to watch it. While I wasn't blown away by the first episode, I really did love it and how much it expanded Matt Reeves Bat-verse. Cristin Milioti was excellent, and, of course, so was Collin Farrell. The first ten minutes were the best and the dinner scene. The QR worked for me, tho, not much there. It's obvious, Oz is gonna pit the two families against each other and wipe each other out al, la, Clint Eastwood's Man With No Name in A Fistful of Dollars. Good start. Looking forward to more, but, more importantly, The Batman 2.

    I didn't expect Alberto died early, maybe because i know him from The Long Halloween and Dark Victory but this Alberto had nothing to do with the comics. But Sofia is incredible. This episode feels like Matt Reeves directed it, Craig Zobel is really good.

    This is the best DC TV content slightly above Sandman, Doom Patrol. If you include animation it’s 3rd. BTAS, Brave & Bold then Penguin. Colin wins an award for this and Rhenzy finally gets back to where he belongs in superhero content and is amazing. Perfect way to introduce a new character. Hope he makes it into the pages at DC

    I've said it before, but the chronic foot problem that Oswald Cobb has is easily corrected by a competent surgeon. He was either born with that condition or had an accident at a very young age. The toes are simply broken and reset with pins and splints and then put into a plaster cast. His foot won't be like the other one, but it will look closer to normal, and he won't be in so much pain.

    Wild theory here... what if vic is really Robin undercover? We know Bruce only cares about the mission, so he's using vic like he used Selena in the club. Maybe the kid on the train in the movie was supposed to be Robin, but people gained him so much attention, WB booked him to boost titans views. This could be the reason for the Easter egg of boosting the rims like Jason Todd did to batman. Robin may have to earn his usefulness to a young and headstrong batman

    Overall I think the episode was good. I love the cold bloodedness of the characters, they actually feel like villains in a grounded Gotham. My only complaint is maybe how Victor was handled. I think they could've given him more characterization to make the ending more believable. Also loved how crazy Sofia was and how close she was to finding out the truth. The tension in all those scenes was amazing

      @Joshcoshbagosh หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      More and more I am getting the feeling Part 2 is going to be about delving deeper into the corruption of Arkham specifically, following up on the thread about Martha, her family, and why she was there. Matt said he wants this whole series to dig deep into why Gotham is the way it is. The first movie was about the crooked cops and politicians. Makes sense the next story might be more about the mental health aspect of Gotham's citizens. What purpose does Arkham truly serve? Why are people not getting the treatment they need? Then maybe the Court of Owls for the third film where it all comes together and he uncovers this epic hidden history of the city and the families.

      Falcone was the “rat” oz was mad about it but also it’s just cops surrounding them no actual big players in the mob besides low level guards and people. He didn’t shoot or anything, plus penguin show starts just a couple days after the events of Batman so maybe hasn’t been talked about yet and will show up later in the season.

    16:06 I agree with you 100%. Now that we see that Oz is able to be strategic and a few moves ahead. It may be some thing that comes back in a later episode that he uses as a key to a plan, but the audience will only find out after a reveal. That would be good writing and the writing has been great so far.

    I know it’s probably not the same character or gonna happen but the daughter of the mob boss that tried to kill Penguin would make a GREAT Poison Ivy. She has the look, the attitude & I mean she did come back from Arkham Asylum which they could have used as a starting point as to why she’s gone crazy. Not to mention in the last scene she was in a garden 🪴 but I know DC’s gonna fumble that idea so it’s just high hopes at this point.

    Honestly I’m glad this show came out when it did. After the acolyte I just didn’t have faith in Disney. I was excited for Agatha, and still am. After watching the first two episodes, it’s got me intrigued (granted that’s what happened with the acolyte, but then stopped watching it after episode 3), but didn’t leave me feeling like “holy shit”…..The Penguin did just that. After the credits I said “now that’s how you make a tv show”. I wish Agatha the best and hope the show is good and does well, but if not. Atleast we have The Penguin.
