Oh you in for the best show of 2024
🐧
I don’t see him reacting to Ripley
@@RandyWhite-e6t Ripley was extremely dull and cinematic at the expense of substance.
Big fax. Nothing comes close.
Only second to Shogun, but absolutely incredible show!
18:37 “damn, we’re getting a glimpse of what carved him into the man he is now.”
you have no. idea.
12:40 - I had never thought about that dichotomy, but that makes so much sense. The Joker being a manifestation of the 'Chaos' of Gotham and the Penguin being a manifestation of its 'Corrupted Order'
You’re watching this now! My favorite show of the year
hello, friend
I’m dying laughing at “I can sense a baddie” cuz she’s actually so fine lmaooo
The man speaks truth 😂
Colin Farrell entirely disappears into this role
Who was Colin Farrell?
I mean a whole thick ahh makeup on top of his face helped too.
🐧
@JamesVSCinema WHAT. I THOUGHT HE PLAYED VIC
@@abemrofchakhe played penguin
So glad you're watching this. This show has so much for cinephiles to dig into
Absolutely, I sunk my teeth into this like it was candy 🖤
Best show of the year. EVERYONE showed up for work on this.
Yeah it’s got me hyped!
Oh boy The Wire, Succession, and this? My man getting the best milage out of that HBO Max subscription.
This is better than all those shows tbh. They really knocked it out the park.
This is honestly one of the best shows ever created imo
The entire season is perfect. You're in for such a treat.
This could be the best reaction to an amazing show.
Cristin Milioti is so freaking beautiful
She's my very favorite part of this show.
I think you're going to love this, James. The performances are stellar. 🐧
Its a True Detective level quality
Penguin is way better.
super stoked that you’re doing this. I also loved how you feel about The Batman and that whole video you did on it because its my favorite film of all time. I’ve seen it 10 times and is the foundation of my love for film making
That cut to the title was when I knew this was gonna be a solid show
Absolutely love the dialogues in this show. There are several between Vic and Oz that are incredibly captivating
This is a fantastic show man, I thought it was even better than the movie. Favorite show of the year right up there with Shogun. Collin Farrell needs to win awards for this, I really think he deserves an Emmy for his role here. Cristin Milioti also killed it as the hangman.
It’s gonna be a good time my friend!
Did you like Ripley?
@@RandyWhite-e6t Haven't actually heard of this show, but I'll check it out. I just finished Squid Game season 2, so I'm about to start watching DARK because my friend recommended it to me.
Hopefully in German, with subtitles in your language. It makes the experience 🔥
One of the greatest live action DC TV series ever made! Colin Farrell deserves a Golden Globe and Emmy Award nomination.
Happy New Year 🕛🎊
Excited to see how this story unfolds
Glad you're reacting to this. This show is the biggest surprise of recent year(s) for me. Hope you've been able to avoid spoilers for major plot beats.
Also Happy New Year! Hope you find success with any of your own filmmaking/creative projects in the new year.
It’s been really great client wise and creative ways. Cheers to the New Years!
Farrell’s best role by far. If this series was a movie and Oscars were still worth anything, I’d say it was Oscar-worthy, but as things stand this is way better than Oscar-worthy.
Be prepared for one wild ride. One great thing about this show is that it just DOES NOT STOP! Literally every episode changes the game.
They turned an already good character from the Batman into an insanely good character with this show. There is so much to be said about the penguin by the end of the show. You’ll love him and despise him
10/10 show! 🐧
This show went insanely hard from start to finish, you're in for a treat my friend.
You are in for a real treat! Best TV of ‘24.
OMFG! James....I love you my brother! Your intellect, your humor, that face, the blackness🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am Hyped AF to ride along with you my brother!
Wishing you a safe, healthy and Prosperous New Year!
♥️🙏🏾
One of those shows where first the penguin steals the show with brilliant performance, then Vic gets some incredible stuff, but for me Sofia's actor is the real standout, can't wait for HER episode to hit YT!
Costumes, characters, script, plot, humour... the list is ridiculous. Hands down, the best show of the year and you're kinda late the party, but I envy you watching this for the first time. Deserves a binge watch.
I always love when you put a suggestion in the comments & the creator comes through. You’re a real on James, all the best in 2025
This show is incredible, I'm sure you're going to enjoy the ride, can't wait to see more!
Best show of the year for sure. Colin Farrell did such a good job it was like watching an amazing actor nobody has ever seen before.
I just love the way you say things sometimes. "It's really great that this is available." That sums a lot of great media right now. It's a sentence that could be dug deeper in a good way.
This is my favorite Comic book project since Daredevil it’s so well made. You’ll love this show trust me.
I just found out that Mike Marino the man behind the makeup for Penguin is the same dude who did the makeup for Sebastian Stan in A Different Man. That dude is a makeup genius.
im so happy to see u doing this series! one of my favs of recent time
I worked with someone for over a year before noticing they had a clubbed hand ( thalidomide birth defect). They moved a lot like Oz, never slowing down and rejecting any notion of being handicapped
Happy New Year my guy! Glad to see you checking out all these shows and Im glad that you loved Mr Robot. Ive been waiting to do a second watch and damn is it still hard to stomach parts of the show. Keep it up dude!
I just finished watching this last week, and here we are. fantastic! Looking forward to enjoying this journey with you!
Welcome aboard!
Perfect timing James. I just finished this show over the weekend. Binged it in 2 days. Good show.
7:18 bro had it coming! lmao
"We all have it coming, Kid."
Broooo! I just finished binging this, and it's fantastic! Can't wait to rewatch it all here with your reactions!
You are in for a great time!
Yes!!! I am looking forward to your insights on this
You’re legit my fav channel. It used to be the rewatchables with bill Simmons, but you’ve taken the lead.
It’s like watching Tony Soprano take on Gotham, it’s amazing.
Bro…every. Episode 🔥🔥🔥
Between Selina Kyle, Eve and Victor, Oz has a fondness for redbones 😂😂😂
Hell yeah. You're going to love this.
Looking forward to the rest of the reactions. I highly recommend Andor if you haven't seen it already. I think it's another example of a spinoff show that transcends what it spun from
YES SIR I'm strapped tf in
We got The Wire, Curb, and now Penguin spooled up? You're spoiling us
i've watched so many of your videos, I suppose I'll just subscribe. Sorry for not doing that earlier. Keep up the good content
One of those shocking circumstances where the TV show absolutely elevates the movie. I thought the Batman movie was okay. After watching this, it turns what I thought was a 7 out of 10 movie until like an 8 out of 10 or 9 out of 10
Glad this could give you a good time!
The Black kid is from the show " The RunAways" marvel tv show.
WE NEED THE SOPRANOS
You’re from Breaking Bad
You’re gonna fuckin love this show bro 🔥🔥🔥
So looking forward to hearing ur thoughts on this show,it's a god damn masterpiece
oh man u ain’t ready for this
I think you're really gonna enjoy this show!!
Gotta get yourself a mic stand man. Love the channel.
I flow better when the mic is in my hands. For James vs Games I’ll have a mic stand!
@@JamesVSCinema I get that. It does look natural. Enjoy the show. Keep up the good work bro
omg he DOES look like j cole i can’t unsee it
Oh damn. Oz vs Fisk would be WILD.
Awesome pick! No#1 wanted reaction is Streets Of Fire 1984 cult classic. Guaranteed fun with some surprise actors
Ty
So glad you started with this show! Best show of the year for me. If you haven't seen Gotham yet I hope you will get around to it at some point. It's a great show!
show surprisingly kicks ass
Penguin is Great bro enjoy.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm like, finally.
Oh helllll yes
Kid wasn’t in the movie
I'm biased towards anything Batman related.....but this is seriously one of the best series I've ever seen
Oh it's time for peak fiction
Let’s gooooo
Would be cool if you ever react to the Pusher trilogy, a danish crime drama trilogy directed by Nicolas Winding Refn (who directed Drive) and featuring Mads Mikkelsen, very underrated and great trilogy
Omg yes!
Oh shit this what we watching bluhhh? Dope
If you are doing Penguin is there a world where you will be doing Andor? Imo the second best season of tv in 2022 after BCS
Absolutely 🙏🏽
Andor is the best star wars since Empire
You're in for a great time
You’re right, you’re right.
Ah SHIT. Here we go again.
yo when is The Bear season 3 coming James?
It's Yojimbo.
You have no idea what happens at the end.
And now james is onto the penguin right after mr robot...
Bro relax lmaoo
Dude, I finished Mr. Robot like 8 months ago lol
Yay now we wait 2.5 more years until The Batman II……….fuck.
PAIN bruh..PAIN.
Release the technical interpretations and enjoy the dialogue and acting. The Penguin is last year's best show, hands down.
I found The Batman to be largely forgettable but this show blew my mind. This, Shogun, and Say Nothing are my three favorite shows this year.
Hardest series of the year, and I'm not even a Batman fan at all. Penguin gang all day.
Now after this Gotham please pretty please
You get lost in the character real quick
damn I wasn't familiar with your game
Man… buckle up.
Really loved the show. I will say it does feel a bit too "Italian mafioso" inspired but still loving it. Although I think that changing Penguin's name from Oswald Cobblepot to "Oz Cobb" because they didn't think his actual name from the comics sounded grounded enough to be a ridiculous reason.
Honestly cobblepot doesn't make sense when i think about the character they created for the show. Hes a poor kid from the east side, where would he get that name from? The name sounds too established.
@@Tross-fe1bq Cobb just sounds so generic though.
@@The_Phantasm yeah that's true. It doesn't have the same ring to it. But I still like the new name
@@The_Phantasmnot really. How many cobbs do you know. Oz Cobb is a good name, realistic(ish) and rolls off the tongue well.
@@andrewstephens5885 Agreed to disagree.
Finally getting into this high anticipated show!

Much love!
THE SOPRANOS, starring the late actor James Gandolfini as the New Jersey Mafia's big boss Tony Soprano, is the G.O.A.T. Mafia T.V. show that inspired THE PENGUIN!
PLEASE watch The Sopranos right after you're done watching this show!
@jamesvscinema you have to add Severance to 2025 schedule
