I'm still on the fence about this show. A series where Gordon is the lead man sounds interesting, and could allow us to look into the past lives of some of Batman's iconic villains. However, why is Bruce Wayne a major character? What will he bring to the story?

Is he going to be one of those annoying children who get involve in dangerous activities? Hope not.

listenkids3637d ago

He's involved because Gordon is investigating his parents murder, he won't have a role outside of that. At most, I assume he'll headline news or such regarding the Wayne enterprise in some way.

Still on the fence because this is a very typical cop TV show poster that you see for the other 100 cop drama shows on TV.

I seriously think the idea of this series is the stupidest freakn thing ever. Lets have a series about the world of batman before there was batman... kiss my ass. They would have done better having a batman series during the time frame of batman but centered on gordon. This here is just freakn dumb. Little kid future villains and lots of thugs.. couldnt u just have made a cop drama without even envolving gotham... or the batman mythos. This is lame. If yoru going to have the batman and gotham names associated.. then FREAKN USE BATMAN and the universe... dont just make some dumb past thing that no one gives a crap about. What a waste.. some dumb executives. Makes me mad. Thank god for games like batman arkham city.

A Batman show pre-Batman sounds awesome dude cry me a river.

"They would have done better having a batman series during the time frame of batman but centered on gordon"

You mean sorta like the Dark knight trilogy?

"couldnt u just have made a cop drama without even envolving gotham..."

There's like one hundred of those on TV right now. Couldn't you just, you know watch one of those? Being a bit selfish here don't ya think?

"then FREAKN USE BATMAN and the universe... "

Batman literally just had the most successful cb movie trilogy in history and will get a new trilogy after his appearance in Man of Steel 2 and The Justice League. Also there's 3 (soon 4) very successful video games and a ton of recent Batman centric animated movies. We aren't getting starved for the character dude... Quit whinning.

"dont just make some dumb past thing that no one gives a crap about."

It's actually getting some positive reactions from the "first looks" so0oo0o0o i wouldn't say "no one".

Kurylo3d3636d ago

Your totally missing the point. My point is you are right that there are 100 cop dramas. And now there are 101 because its just another cop drama with more of the same except its using character names and cheezy kid supervillain tie ins lol. Big woop.

And when i mean centered on gordon.. i mean dont even envolve or have any scenes with batman... keep him in the shadows like a ghost. Talk of him... utlize him in a conversation, but make it about gordon and even the witnessing of events. THAT would be interesting.

Its not that I want more batman... again u missed the point there. THe point is i want them to do something GOOD with gotham.. not another cop drama. What made batman and gotham good as a whole is the rogue gallery of villains... so instead of putting u in a time period where they exist... they put u in the past with children who grow up to be villains... and common crooks.. What am i supposed to do thank them for trying to cash in on the name batman without actually envolving anything that makes the batman comics great?

Porcelain_Chicken3635d ago (Edited 3635d ago )

Yes dude. It's something new. Mixing column A with column B. Sounds very promising. It's leading to the events of "Batman". Using Gordon, a very great character. As a Batman fan i can't wait to see what they can do (If done right). I could care less who else is doing what on TV.

"And when i mean centered on gordon.. i mean dont even envolve or have any scenes with batman... keep him in the shadows like a ghost."

And who says we won't ever get there?

"Its not that I want more batman... again u missed the point there. THe point is i want them to do something GOOD with gotham.. not another cop drama"

and

"And when i mean centered on gordon.. i mean dont even envolve or have any scenes with batman..."

Ok so you want

A). Not involving Batman BUT involving Gotham.
B). Involving Gordon.
C). Not police centric...

Seems to me buddy that even you don't know what you want.

"What made batman and gotham good as a whole is the rogue gallery of villains..."

Agreed. You know what made the first Terminator movie great? Kyle Reese/Micheal Biehn. Terminator 2 was still great without because he was never intended to be in it. The universe was big enough to go on without him. *hint* *hint*

"What am i supposed to do thank them for trying to cash in on the name batman without actually envolving anything that makes the batman comics great?"

No, you should go complain on the internet & argue a jumbled point with a complete stranger. There's over 70 years worth of Batman comics, live-action movies, animated series/movies and video games fitting YOUR description of the ideal Batman story. This is ONE show. ONE. I'll repeat myself, being a bit selfish here don't ya think?

Kurylo3d3634d ago

Your the one who sounds selfish. Seems like you want to take the gotham name for yourself but not include thigns that other people want in it...

Porcelain_Chicken3634d ago

"Your the one who sounds selfish. Seems like you want to take the gotham name for yourself but not include thigns that other people want in it.."

Whaaaaaaaat? That's the point i'm defending from you! You said what YOU want and SHOULD be. And i said the Batman universe is big enough to make so many different things out of. *FACEPALM* Also what does this mean,

"Seems like you want to take the gotham name for yourself"

You realise i'm not making the show right? I don't own any rights to anything Batman related. Are you listening to yourself? O_-
