The DC universe has always been less well-run than Marvel, so despite hearing about Gotham's name early on, I didn't watch the show until Batman and the Joker rekindled my curiosity about this dark city.
After watching the first episode, I realized that I was deceived by the introduction. I thought it was a story in Gotham City that had nothing to do with Batman. I didn't expect the opening scene to be Wayne's parents. This is the third version I've seen. , this scene is too easy to be emotionally substituted (become a classic scene of dc jokes) young bruce, middle-aged alfred, and gordon who has just come to Gotham, I am really excited to see them! ! I actually missed such a treasured drama! Fortunately, there are four seasons and 22 episodes enough for me to slowly brush.
When I first entered the American Manga Chaoying Pit, I knew that DC was going dark, but it was not until now that I really realized what the dark was. When I was a child, I only thought so because of Batman and Night in Black and the style of painting. Later, when I watched the Batman trilogy, I thought it was because there were many criminals and violent cases in Gotham. Joaquin's Joker opened my understanding of the darkness of Gotham. And the darkness of this show made me feel more terrifying than horror movies, and even when I saw the third episode, I was so wrapped up in darkness and powerlessness that I couldn't keep watching. The political and social allegories in it should be comparable to v for vendetta (this may be the benefit of an alternate worldview)
When I watched the first episode, I didn't know the follow-up of Penguin and Riddler, I only knew that the young man who was put by Gordon at the end killed an old man for a bite of bread (and he also killed many innocent passers-by after him), let I think of the truth that the victor, Uncle Justice Liya, said, even now, many people can't understand: the justice you think is probably not the case from other perspectives. Wang Xiaobo once said in the silent majority that it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong. Although Gordon is kind and upright, he just came to Gotham when he was young. He didn't accept the reality of beatings. He wanted to uphold justice with a sincere and enthusiastic heart. Change Gotham. Aside from the established plot, although the Penguin later achieved a career and became an important role, but from this drama alone, Gordon let him go, but it caused him to kill a lot of innocent people casually later. Passers-by; Gordon blindly pursued the truth and wanted to bring the real murderer to justice, and the first lesson was what his girlfriend said, "You caught the real murderer of the Wayne couple, which gave the citizens a lot of encouragement." Balloons Humans, viper men, are criminals in Gordon's eyes, and justice can be served as long as they are brought to justice. His innocence remained even in his old age, but he would gradually realize who was the real criminal and who made the city so unsightly.
The villains in dc comics can be loved by everyone, on the one hand because of their madness and freedom, and on the other hand because of their "pure evil", which is more real and enjoyable than officials in Gotham's "high society". They are the rebellious proletariat, who want to rob the rich to help the poor, want to change the established rules of the city, and corrupt. In this play, the good guys are chasing the good guys, but the good guys who want to uncover the true face of the bad guys are treated as bad guys, and the bad guys watch everything proudly.
Putting aside the dark side of reality, the plot of this drama is still very cool. The family strife has a godfather feel (although it is much gentler than the godfather), the plot arrangement has many branches around the main line and the main characters, and the supporting characters are also very good. I've only watched five episodes and I've already written so many reviews.
There is a classic line from V for Vendetta: Lies are used to convey the truth. Fakes are true and false, and reality is often more absurd than art. There is often a mourning culture among young people nowadays: "The world is not worth it", they only see some very shallow things in society, relying on their own imagination, marketing accounts and chicken soup essays, they imagined the appearance of the world, Either become an illusory literary youth, or become an angry youth fighting on the keyboard. The darkness of Gotham may also be used as a bargaining chip by these people. But I think Gotham was created to wait for heroes like Batman. He has seen the darkness, he is afraid of the darkness, but he has risen in the darkness. Even if he knows how much injustice there is, he must adhere to his principles, maintain justice and build confidence for the people. (And why can't Gordon, who also insists on justice, because at this time his vision is still relatively short-sighted. Changing Gotham requires fundamental strength and needs to shake its foundation)
Although I myself am a little boy who has not yet entered the society, but whether I read books, videos, real news, or my personal experiences, I have more or less a bottom line about "how the world is". As they often say in the film, "What do you want, this is Gotham." I may not feel that "there is such a thing", "How can there be such a person", the world is so big , there are no surprises, all I can do is to stick to my beliefs, retain my passion for the world and my love for myself, and rise in the dark. Knowing the darkness, beauty can make you happier.
Ps Irresponsible Tucao: Batman's superhero aura is too strong, Gotham wants to turn over and needs the unity of the proletariat
The folk customs are simple and honest, Gotham City is full of talents. Arkham?
