GOTHAM



While I'm not a fan of having all their origins essentially happening parallel to one another, this looks entertaining... I'll check it out.

why not have them parallel? i mean, if their ages are "more or less correct", then what's the problem?

i mean, sure, a show about JUST the origins of the antagonists would be cool, but an origin of just Bruce w/out any of the "other players" would be...

kinda... too full of drama b.s.

...and an origin of JUST, say, Catwoman or Penguin or etc just wouldn't draw in enough viewers to stay, so it'd be "much ado about nothing but some fail after maybe a season".

i was like, "meh", at first, but after this trailer, i'm all about checking it out!

BC,..not everything and everyone co-exist at the same time. My father didn't know Jim's father who knew another friend of ours father and now miraculously we all end up hanging out and working together. not EVERYTHING is tied together. ( Marvel has done a masterful job of butchering it's beginnings doing this...)
Life doesn't work that way. it's the unknown and random chaos that thrusts these ( and more over, ANY) characters into situations where they can rise up, or fall. come together and forge something great.It's what perpetuates these characters and stories.
This "George Lucas" approach that everything is tied neatly together comes across as absurd, ridiculous, and kind of insulting....
