Title: So...Batwoman...
Post by: Tenzhi on October 08, 2019, 03:35:53 PM
On the one hand, I thought Alice's identity was obvious; but on the other, I figured they would draw out the reveal.

Dunno how I feel about the show, yet.

Seemed like your standard CW opening. Not bad until they start going all Smallville (7.0? now). Really though the problem with doing a Batwoman series is that she doesn't have many villains and no good ones from the comics. Alice was the obvious choice but after that who knows.

I give it ... a solid C+ or B-? It was enjoyable for an origin story episode and I'm willing to give it the rest of the season before really judging it, but I like it more now then I I did Green Arrow at the end, so that's a plus.

I don't much recall what happened in the second episode, I just kept thinking Kate looks like a Peter Pan the whole time.

Not sure what you mean, but isn't Magpie pretty much Batwoman's Penguin?

No, Magpie's been a longtime Batman villain. I don't even recall her being in a Batwoman but then again I'm only caught up to 2017 and have a crap memory anyway.

Spoiler for Hidden:
What I meant was they had easter eggs that the Joker in that reality was Jack Napier - so original Keaton Batman movie. They later mentioned something about Mayor Cobblepot's regime meaning it wasn't the Batman Returns reality because he was discredited prior to the election. So it's a reality kind of like the Keaton movies but not exactly. But of course since it's still the CW they probably just threw in some references without giving them a second thought.

The more we get of Kate's stepsister, the more I dislike her.

And an I-have-a-little-bit-of-facial-scarring-so-the-world-treats-me-like-a-monster villain.  Joy.

Seems a lot like it's a DC "Amalgam" universe.

If only.  Then we might be watching DC-23 instead of Batwoman.
