THE BATMAN TV Series Coming To HBO Max Will Reportedly Serve As A Prequel To The Movie

@RageDriver2401 - Joker

@RageDriver2401 - With Matt Reeves being involved i can see him just pick the villains he doesnt plan to use on his trilogy of films

@dracula - I mean, not really

@ThePott - its not a show for everyone. Kind of like the 60’s series

@tmp3 - love the 60’s show.
Just got to say though while the overall presentation wasnt always on point in gotham, they did nail of majority of the characters. Also David Mazouz really was a great young bruce wayne. Some episodes dived more into his character than most of the films we have had

@dracula - Lol no, The WB got the rights to, HBO was in very early negotiations but they fell through. I can't see teen bop Batman playing alongside The Sopranos

I think Nolan did an amazing job with Gotham, especially in Batman Begins and as someone who really enjoyed the Batman Telltale games, i wonder if the Waynes will be saints or if they were hiding a dark secret.
Not saying that they were part of the mafia, but more like...you know, forced to close an eye in front of certain things, in order to control the chaos.
Cobblepot could be the necessary evil, cause he's the devil you know, he controls Gotham, because he has big plans for the city, like maybe even becoming the Mayor.
So the crime rate can't be too high, thing is...he also controls the crime world.
The Waynes were aware of all of this, his money laundering and even if the Waynes were powerful, it's not like Thomas could do much about it.
Especially not with lil Bruce around.
I also wonder if we'll have Martha Kane or Martha Arkham.

Whenever they play with this stuff, i always find it very fascinating, because losing his parents was the main reason why Bruce became Batman and every child thinks that their parents are perfect but that's not always the case, especially in Gotham and to compromise that idea is a nice way to instill fear and doubts in Bruce.
I guess the question i'd like them to ask is: What is that thing that makes Bruce... Batman?

@TheUnworthyThor - well Matt Reeves will be doing it and it is actually called Gotham Central, so it will probably be more like that comic

@MarvelDCAllDay - Gotham was pretty high quality for a comic book show anyway. Good acting and a 4 million dollar budget per episode. Was one of the most expensive shows on TV for the first 2 seasons. Certainly more resources went into it than the CW shows.
