Earlier in the week, Fox debuted a promo for the upcoming sixteenth episode of Gotham, which seemed to indicate that the episode would introduce the show’s version of The Joker, a.k.a. Jerome, played by Cameron Monaghan (Shameless) [watch the promo here]. Well, The Hollywood Reporter caught up with showrunner Bruno Heller, asking him whether that […]
Take a look back at the cinematic evolution of Batman
The most enduring superhero of them all in cinema terms is The Dark Knight, with over ten screen interpretations of the Batman character since his comic book debut in May 1939.

Gotham Season 1 Episode 15 Review – ‘The Scarecrow’
Martin Carr reviews the fifteenth episode of Gotham… It occurs to me that I may have been a little harsh on Julian Sands. For whatever reason I failed to buy into his portrayal of Dr Gerald Crane, feeling that there was no inherent threat, fear or sense of foreboding. In ‘The Scarecrow’ the metaphorical penny […]
Marvel vs. DC Comic Book Movies Release Dates 2015 – 2020
What a wonderful time to be a comic book movie fan.

Gotham Season 1 Episode 14 Review – ‘The Fearsome Dr. Crane’
Martin Carr reviews the fourteenth episode of Gotham… Julian Sands has always been a jobbing actor in predominantly risible fare. Warlock with the far superior Richard E Grant anyone? Or perhaps you prefer the less than engaging Boxing Helena with Miss Twin Peaks herself Sherilynn Fenn. Whatever you’re particular brand of vodka it would be […]
Gotham Series 1 Episode 13 Review – ‘Welcome Back, Jim Gordon’
Martin Carr reviews the thirteenth episode of Gotham… There is something strangely satisfying about seeing Jada Pinkett Smith chained up surrounded by instruments of torture. Whilst Ben McKenzie doing his full on righteous routine shoulder to shoulder with a seventy thirty split of dirty cops and those either side of that line, garnered a noticeably […]
