nooneofconsequence posted:So Jeremiah remade the Waynes, yeah? No question about it, they made that very clear and weren't trying to be ambiguous about it at all. The reason their faces were hidden was almost certainly not because they were trying to fool the audience or anything, but likely was so they didn't have to pay the actors portraying the Waynes SAG appearance rates for two seconds of silent screen time.

This is legitimately the ONLY thing I could think of when I was binging it on Netflix and see this splash screen pop up, I would read it out loud in a dramatic voice with an interrogative inflection and it never failed to amuse me.

I don't think I've watched a single episode of this show and not said "Got Ham?" at some point. Part of it is because when the title card pops up, the text "GOTHAM" does this zoom-in fish-eye thing, and as it zooms in, the space between the middle two letters becomes more pronounced... I've been watching Batman stuff for decades, and only when I saw that title card did I think, "Got ham?" My son is autistic. Every time he sees the title card, he says, "Gotham." I correct him: "Got ham." Then we get into a little argument about it. It's predictable, but fun.

They definitely lean into the gag. For a while there was a little Riddler question mark sitting on a water tower that made things more obvious.

Tiggum posted:Who did what thing? Not the person who posted this, so just hazarding a guess, but I said nearly the exact same thing when Bruce did the whole "Batman just up and vanishes from the room, leaving whoever he'd been talking to looking around" thing he's pretty famous for. (Am I right, muscles?) I just watched the latest ep tonight, and I have no clue how they're gonna wrap this up. The comic version of No Man's Land took up 5 trade paperbacks, they could've stretched the story across 2 or 3 full seasons, easily, even with Bruce not being the Bat yet. I love this goofy rear end show, sad that it's ending.

I'm wondering if there's not going to be a "twist reveal" and the person Gordon has been talking to on the phone has nothing to do with the Government. Easily evidenced since his "buddy" quickly turned heel last episode right? I predict the actual No Man's Land arc will end with the main crew (Gordon, Penguin, Riddler, Babs) gearing up to face off against whomever the hordish army ends up being, and then the REAL government shows up to save the day? I think the actual series will end with a flash forward, and they go ahead and do a full on batman reveal. I could be wrong though. Could the show even legally put cape and cowl batman on the screen?

This whole show should have been No Man's Land from like midway through season 1. It's a good way to get from Chicago -> Crazy Fuckers In Tights without stupid goofy poo poo like crazy Barb and Fish Mooney. Society breaking down and crazies running rampant in fenced-in Got Ham would have been good tv. The main thing I'm taking away from this show is that David Mazouz is loving awesome and I hope he gets a better show when this loving shitpile is finally over.

Wow. I honestly think that David Mazouz is actually really terrible. I'm honestly surprised other people like him so much. His Bruce is so precious and pretentious, and a real wimp. I mean, I don't blame the show (or Mazouz, he's a kid). They got him as a child actor, and their Selina turned out to be pretty good. Guess that's what happens when you roll the dice.

Open Source Idiom posted:That's what happened though. That was the show. It is. They got from A to B, but they did it in a much less realistic way. And I realize asking for realism in a show with a magic plant chick and dudes with brain control chips is ridiculous, but here's what I'm getting at: it would have been a much more realistic transition from normal to Got Ham to have a micro society inside of an enforced bubble with starvation and gang warfare completely collapse. Nobody is left to guard the prison or make sure the inmates at Arkham don't get out. People are just fighting for basic survival. It's an environment in which something like the joker or scarecrow could actually happen, given some uniquely crazy individuals happen to be wandering around. People could have left, at any time, in the show we got. The federal government could have intervened at any time. It wasn't a closed environment pressure cooker. There was no need for cannibalism. The writers had to introduce more and more goofy, outlandish poo poo and dumb coincidences in order to make it all happen and get us to the same place where a guy dressing up as a bat and punching faces is believable. It could have been better, is my point. I agree that pinguin was also really good though.

Except that the city being cut off and abandoned by the state is also completely ludicrous on its own. Nothing about that is plausible.

How is there literally not a single boat of any kind in Gotham? Not even a rowboat anywhere in that huge chunk of city? Really? Also, can't people just...swim to safety if they're that desperate? The old and infirm couldn't make that trip, sure, but healthy young adults should be able to make a one-way swim trip like that without much issue...especially to escape a city that's gotten the worst it has ever been.

They built a wall! Naw, seriously, iirc correctly, in the comics the military has a ton of patrols, fencing, boats, helicopters, etc on all surrounding sides, ready to shoot on sight. They've got snipers on all those half-a-bridges, giving them a great view of any traffic in the water. The water might even be mined? So it's sorta like asking "why don't Mexicans just rowboat/swim across the Rio Grande?" Except this border patrol won't just arrest you/send you back, they'll straight up fire an rpg at your boat.
