The Penguin
The best thing about this, besides the performances is how it adds and extends the Batman universe. I have no idea what the plans are for this universe who will be in how long it’ll go blah blah but as an extension of the Batman this is brilliant. It shows Gotham City in such a devastating way which adds so much complexity to the characters, imagine living in the city and everyone morning you wake up and watch the news and see the most batshit happening.
Colin Farrell coming for the Emmy. It’s insane to me to think there was a time in my life where I couldn't stand this guy, he was in a lot of bad movies ( swat, daredevil and Miami vice) that seemed to always be on tv and he was just the common denominator so I think I projected my hate but anyways that all changed a while ago and now he’s one of my favorites he’s incredible as Oz. This is a Tony Soprano level performance he killed it. Everyone else is great I really enjoyed Rhenzy Feliz but the other standout is obviously Cristin Milioti she’s like everyone’s flavor of the week rn but if you’ve seen Palm Springs you probably saw this coming. She’s incredible and I hope to see her more in this universe. Definitely see a nomination in her future.
Now really the only thing I didn’t like about this show are the fans, Batman shouldn’t have showed up like be fr. It’s okay for something to take place in the universe and not have to do with him. Please allow stories to stand on their own and with that being said I don’t care how good any of the new DC movies are and idc how good Batman 2 is PLEASE PLEASE DONT CONNECT THIS UNIVERSE TO ANYTHING ELSE!! Especially that horrible Todd Philips universe.
