The Penguin (HBO) TV Show • Page 2

I honestly don't think he'd be interested in reprising the role.

 

Is his accent actually from somewhere?

 

Whose?

 

Really liked the first episode. miloti was great

 

Penguin, and his mom. Can't put my finger on it. Sounds like an amalgam of NJ/NY/MA accents

 

Enjoyed the first episode. But man, it looks sooo cheap compared to The Batman. Which, I mean, it totally makes sense given tv vs movie. But damn I can’t stop noticing it.

 

Does one have to watch The Batman movie to watch this?

 

Saying yes only because you should be watching The Batman movie in any case.

 

It's a good movie as it is, and will help you understand the vibe of this universe's Gotham. I'd recommend watching it. Plus, emo Batman. C'mon.

 

Crazy

 

Lotta Tony Soprano in this Penguin and that's not a bad thing so far.

 

Bruce listens to Nirvana in The Batman. Just watch it. It’s one movie.

 

Ya this was great

 

andy greenwald was predictably insufferable about this

 

What did he say? I googled but it’s in an article with Industry spoiler it looked like.

 

Small issue: I don’t remember his “waddle” in the Batman, beyond the early morning interrogation scene. Was that really a thing? I like how they’re doing it here, to be clear, I just didn’t recall it being shown so much.

 

I feel like I definitely remember it. At the very least I remember Falcone calling him a gimp or a cripple at the climax right before the Riddler shot

Can't lie. Victor feels significantly out of place, even for an audience surrogate. He feels like he's from a completely different city.

That being said, he reminds me a bit of a henchman Penguin had in the comics during No Man's Land, Garrett.

They're very different but they both seem to serve the same role and have the same desire to be useful.

 

this is fun so far

 

Really digging this so far. The scene with the mother with dementia really hit, since it's pretty much the same as a time my grandmother was out walking in the winter without a coat. No bribe money though.

 

2 for 2. Farrell and Milioti both killing it so far.

 

Have not seen Scott Cohen in a single thing besides Gilmore Girls so it was jarring seeing him play Luca
