Dude Rhenzy Felix is killing this role as Victor. The attention detail with the stutter and the execution is insane. If you notice, Victor's stutter only gets intense when he's under pressure or stress. When he first met Oz, when he meets Sofia in Oz's apartment, when the cop pulls him over, when the waiter asks for his order etc. But when he's talking about his loved ones or something he enjoys, his stutter is almost non existent. Such a small detail, but it's executed so well. Credit to Rhenzy. This whole cast is top tier.
And the most frustrating thing about that, is the fact that Riddler wanted to fight FOR the poor of Gotham but ended up ONLY hurting them and leaving his enemies (the wealthy) completely alone… but hey, that’s insanity for ya🤷♂️
@@briantidwell651 I think he didn't really give a fuck about the poor, he just hated the rich, not really because the rich is fucking over the poor, but because the rich fucked him over in particular.
Seeing his parents was the biggest clue for me that it was a flashback scene After meeting penguin he didn't go to his house for 3 days straight n didn't even mention it before that
I’m thinking she’s not the hangman. Her dad was a killer and he choked the women out (from The Batman film). I’m betting she found out and her father pinned it on her. And she was exonerated so there wasn’t enough evidence against her. So, yeah. She danced on his grave.
As I wrote somewhere else, it looks that way but I don't get why a man who has half the police force, the district attorney and the major on his pocket needs to pin this on his daughter. Plenty of scapegoats to be found in a city as twisted as Gotham. There have to be more to the story for sure, some reason for Carmine to decide to put Sofia away.
@@dennai7695well, she seems to be the smartest in the family, and ambitious. He probably saw her as his only real threat. And if she had something like this on him, she would have used it against him somehow. If it got published in the news and went all over Gotham, he’d fall.
She knows he was working with the moroni’s after that. They were basically finished after his lies caught up with him so he of course thought fk it and saved himself
Last episode - "Things may not work out so well for her". This episode - "I'm not the Hangman". The theory I have formulating is that Sofia took the fall for someone in the family, probably not by choice. After all, daddy dearest had a penchant for strangling the ladies... Alberto was the only one in the family who actually cared for her, so losing him has left her totally isolated.
They kind of gave it away when they were announcing on the news this was election night-- that's how I immediately knew it was a flashback from Victor's POV (towards the end of The Batman).
Members of the Falcone fam keep talking down to Penguin like he a toy. Vic was finally someone he could see as a friend & someone he could mentor, he was MAD hurt at that club when Vic was leaving.
🔴 “The hangman” isn’t Sophia is a major thing we learned in this episode I haven’t seen many people talk about. It’s pretty obviously looking back but her father was the one who strangled women, and she likely took the blame for it so he would get away free.
That's what it looks like, but I don't get why a man who has half the police force, the district attorney and the major on his pocket needs to pin this on his daughter. Plenty of scapegoats to be found in a city as twisted as Gotham. There's more to the story for sure.
@@gautamdas9449 Nope, Alberto was the killer monikered as "Holiday" (one of them anyway) as portrayed in The Long Halloween. Sofia was the Hangman in the sequel, "Dark Victory".
Courtney said “what’s the draw back from this drug” and I pictured not one club member worried about how they are gonna feel tomorrow from this “new drug” 😂
Seeing the flood scene after watching videos of people loosing everything from Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina and Florida is heartbreaking. Made me tear up after seeing that scene.
If you notice they focused on his girls text for two choices. The beginning of the episode which him choosing to hang with her saved his life. The second time was when she left and he picked Oz. So that pretty much sealed his fate. Whether it’s his actual death or the death of Vic that we know we have yet to see.
Ih think Vicks trauma flashback that he had in the club had so many explosions and it was so intense to mirror Sophia’s trauma flashback She’s been having in therapy and clearly her dreams.
0:38 this is why sometimes shows and movies need to do dumbed down over expositions... Cause some people just won't get the subtle clues, like the fact they loudly said it was election night like at the end of the Batman, or the big wide shot of the flood wall still up before being blown up... 🤦🏻♂️ Jesus...
It keeps coming up that she's not Hangman and I think it's more than her just not liking the name. I get the feeling she wasn't the actual hangman but like the only person I could see her taking the fall for is her brother and that doesn't really work because he didn't seem like a serial killer . Idk it has to be more since they keep planting the seed of doubt.
In one episode I went from thinking that Victor was an OK character, to thinking that if anything happens to this kid and he doesn’t make it to the top with Oz, I’m going to absolutely flip out! Rhenzy Feliz is KILLING IT as Victor Aguilar! I especially love that they showed us from his point of view what the bombing of the sea wall looked like. And you can also see why he wants so much more out of life. He saw his father try and play and things fair and just settle for lower class. But Victor is tired of settling for scraps. He wants something more.
THANKS for this, @CinePals!!!! I love Sophia's scary-as-hell X-ray vision whenever she looks at somebody. Boy, it's clearly 2024 and I've gotten used to 21st-century TV/movies because I'm like, "Gee, does she *ever* stop smoking?" :) Boy, is young dude going to get the dirt nap!!! No Victor-y here :( He let that young hottie go--and she really lov-d-ed him :( But he got that taste of the Life, so... All this and #GilScottHeron too!

The episode's opening highlights just how misguided Riddler and his followers truly are. Rather than targeting the wealthy elite, they end up causing harm to those who are just like them. Batman is right to call Riddler scum, and it’s surprising that Edward Nashton hasn't already received a death sentence. The flood he orchestrated resulted in countless casualties. What’s even more surprising is that no one in Gotham seems to be calling for his execution, despite the fact that it’s common knowledge he was responsible for the catastrophe.
He's in Arkham, not in Blackgate, so it's clear he's been declared insane and therefore, not suitable for execution. Also, is death penalty on in whatever state Gotham is supossed to be? I guess not or Batman rogue gallery would be a lot shorter.
i am a new subscriber. i came across this channel from watching you guys react to tyler perry movies. if you haven’t already, please react to Madea’s Big Happy Family. it’s one of my favorite tyler perry movies.
I don't think Sofia is "The Hangman", I think it's actually her late father - Carmine Falcone. I think she took a hit for the family and was sent to Arkham instead of her father. She was sane prior to her stay in Arkham but her time in the asylum broke her mentally.
I get your point. But her saying "you ratted me out" suggests to me she probably was. I think Oz was honest in saying he told her father so he could help Sofia because her methods were probably concerning.
@@IminathiKose good point. I just realized that Sofia and Catwoman are half-sisters. I wonder if this plays any part in Batman 2, that is if Sofia makes it by the end of the series.
Wondering if that low level gangster wannabe Squid will come back to make the connection of the friend that got killed by Sophia and knowing Vic was there that same night
Consequently, Oz thought he could have sent Sophia to Italy, but he didn't think she would be blamed since she was the one absorbing her. And falcone is was actually. And victor impresses me a lot, its context is sad. And that ending🔥. He really impressed me by saving his boss, and driving me to save him. And let it be known that Oz has...an ACE up his sleeve.
I hope that there is another season or at least a new character in The Batman sequel gets a TV series and the Penguin is a regular guest star in it. Johnny Viti is a SOB and a dumbass talking that way to Sophia. One fatal mistake men make is thinking women are all weak and aren't capable of doing anything to them. Women are way more dangerous than men if they want to be and have a plethora of options to use against you. Especially the way the world is today. That was messed up that Penguin acted like he cared about Sophia and then bailed when shit hit the fan. If she makes it out of that situation Sophia's not going to trust his ass again. At least I wouldn't trust him again. Penguin knows that the best lies are the ones mixed with truth. I want to know what was said when Penguin and Sophia was in that situation. Hopefully Sophia will be okay next episode. Enjoyed the reaction 👍👍✌ out.
Think he didn’t take Sophia because at that point she has to have out together that he killed her brother if he’s working with the Marones and they said he played them so she probably would’ve killed him if they grabbed her

He was in The Runaways, but I think he could have been an older Miles Morales as well, especially since he's ethnically Afro-Latino.
"You go to Italy. Or that's where I tell people where you went." 😬Geezus. What a simple but effective threat...
What a heart breaking opening. I never realized the full extent of the destruction at the end of The Batman until today.

I'm getting Robin vibes from this Vic
Took painfully long for them to realize the opening was a flashback. 😂
I had an idea from the beginning but wasn't completely sure until the kid that got shot at the end of ep 1 showed up lol
I knew when I saw the I just voted tag on Victor’s sister as The Batman takes place during the Mayoral election
This show just keeps getting better and better.
Monday morning releases never been this exciting :'D
This show is getting better and better. Collin Farrel is giving all he got for the best performance❤🔥
The teen that got shot now telling a story was the first confirmation of a flashback for me.
Really? The radio on his flat commenting about the election polls didn't clue you in before that?
Seeing his parents was the biggest clue for me that it was a flashback scene
After meeting penguin he didn't go to his house for 3 days straight n didn't even mention it before that
It's crazy how all the hints & clues were there, yet i only realized when the 2nd explosion hit. Can't wait to see how the season ends!

This show is winning a lot of awards. Penguin is wild he cant be trusted lol
“Leave her”
No matter how much character development Oz receives he will always look out for himself first.
He was busted when she pulled up guns drawn
Sofia was gon realize he was working with the Maroni mob
I think he Maroni already spoiled the beans, they were talking for a while before Vic got there.
She knows he was working with the moroni’s after that. They were basically finished after his lies caught up with him so he of course thought fk it and saved himself

Insane how they missed that. They misread a lot of situations in this show, which is surprising for two cinema addicts
It’s crazy how people missed that
Really enjoyed the vibe you had with Cortney! Great reaction. 👍🏾
I'm interested in seeing who Vic's character becomes.
Jabi's T-shirt was "à propos" for the opening scene ;)
Oz wouldnt kill Viti at that moment. He jumped angrily and feigned it being for Sofia's sake. He is plotting on a spatial plane
Members of the Falcone fam keep talking down to Penguin like he a toy. Vic was finally someone he could see as a friend & someone he could mentor, he was MAD hurt at that club when Vic was leaving.
The opening is heartbreaking.
My first thought was 'pop rocks' too haha
House of the Dragon season 2 ended and The Penguin said, "Jeezus.... Hold my beer".
I just noticed the ad on the bus as Graciela was leaving too. "We Are Here For You". The symbolism in places you don't expect ~

The beginning mentioned election day (same day as the flood) so many times. What are you guys talking about?
