Gotham Gotham Season 3 Episode 21/22 - "Destiny Calling/ Heavydirtysoul"

As fast paced and sometimes confusing as this was, this was a pretty solid finish. Probably my favorite of the three season finales. This show normally doesn't do one big bad for an entire season, so I'm wondering if that will change with Ra's or if he'll just be used sparingly.
 
I'm glad Gotham is back for another season because it would have been a major tease if that would have been Ra's only scene.
 
I just wish David was a bit older and bigger. Then they can really show him becoming Bats.

Also, I really thought Penguin was going to spare Riddler and try to reach a peace. Since Mooney said to take the city and he can't if he is constantly fighting Riddler.
 
Would I be wrong to say Alexander's Ra's is my favourite version of the character in live action, despite the one scene? I didn't like Arrow's version too much, and while Liam Neeson was great, I thought they made a mistake killing him off. This version felt like the Ra's I've always wanted to see in every way, nationality, mysticism, costume, charisma. Can't to see more of him in S4.

That was intense! Grundy, Bruce breaking his rule, Iceberg Lounge, Riddler-sickle. Gotham really pulled some heavy punches tonight. The main thing I want in the next season is for Bruce to have an encounter with bats. He's progressing really fast now.
 
Shouldn't Lee be facing some prison time?
 
I wonder if we're going to get any confirmation if Mad Hatter is dead or not. It looked like they only took a pint of his blood and his neck wasn't bleeding when Barb got to him.
 
So, I'm wondering how Butch as Solomon Grundy will work? Is he brain dead, in a coma? I could see him being experimented on, or being taken off life support. Should be interesting to see how this plays out in S4.

I'd prefer the old fashioned "dumped in a swamp and resurrected" angle.

I think Harvey said the hospital saved him.
 
LOL, awesome. For those folks wanting David Mazouz replaced so you could have Batman on the show, you can now officially go suck on a big, long red lollipop.

Lee channeling Elvira with the black eye make-up and her boo..., ahem, top of her dress.

Tricky, Bullock, tricky.

Selina cracks the whip and Tigress is "Holy Hell!"

Riddle me this: What is cold and green?

Captain, Ice Berg spotted ahead.

Hope Barbara gets better soon.


Wondering how Harley Quinn will work into the finale since she's apparently supposed to appear here.

Wonder about that too. I'm still waiting but right now they are running the local Fox news program. Maybe after the news is over?

It's been 'hinted' at WonderCon that Barbara's character will go through an important development come the season finale.
Whether she'll become Gotham's Harley Quinn or something else is yet to be determined.

That was certainly an unexpected development in the Barbara character anyway.

In a way, this felt like a series finale. Wrapped up a lot of storylines. Wonder if they made it like that just in case season 4 wasn't greenlit?

Sure seemed that way. Fox waited forever to give the word Gotham was renewed and I get the idea they had pretty much wrapped up shooting by then.

Shouldn't Lee be facing some prison time?

If they put everyone that deserved prison time in Gotham in prison there would be no one left to walk the streets of Gotham City. Hell, Bruce should be in jail too after what he did to Alfred.
 
So Butch was born on a Monday, eh?
 
Lee with the makeup and that dress.......hnnnnngh
 
Realistically, as far as this show is concerned, if your body is in one piece, there's still a chance.
 
Its crazy to think that Fish died while Jim was killing ninjas.

Though it did provide an excellent opportunity for someone else to drastically oversell what a bad seed Jim is.

Oswald, a gangster who has killed plenty, cries over the body of Fish Mooney, another gangster who has also killed plenty, AND WHO HE PREVIOUSLY KILLED!: "You're the REAL monster, Jim!"

Looking forward to dat Iceberg Lounge tho.
 
That was a crazy season finale...

They couldn't have picked a better actor to play Ra's. I wish there's a way to have Alexander Siddig replace Liam Neeson in Batman Begins.

How dare you. :o


He really is perfect, though.
 
Hey I love Liam Neeson as Ra's but come on...
 
Riddler, Solomon Grundy, and Scarecrow should form a group since they were members of the Legion of Doom.

I wish they bring in Green Lantern Alan Scott and Doctor Mid-Nite to show Bruce inspirations for a superhero career.
 
Whatever happened to that kid that played Jonathan Crane?

I really do wish they would throw in some additional characters on the heroic side of things rather than just pile on more villains.... Either of the characters you mention, Slam Bradley, Zatara, etc.
Whatever happened to that kid that played Jonathan Crane?

They never really followed up on him after that small arc. I assume he was either treated and released, or he's in Arkham now.

If they wanna stock up on some age appropriate villains for Bruce next season, they should bring young Roman Sionis into the fold too. Follow up on that Richard Sionis thread.
