It’s not necessarily “supposed” to be over the top there’s many more subdued versions of the character and of the batman narrative. You can have realism done really well with the comic medium, and even some movies with Scorsese-sequel realism have surreal elements

As soon as he said it, and in such a condescending manner I thought the exact same thing as you. I finished watching the last episode at the weekend and thought it that the whole series was fantastic. Personally I think that if he doesn't win an Emmy (is that how you spell that?) It's criminal.

@@carcerate I asked for it. After seeing The Batman, any sane person would have wanted more of this universe. So yes, is aged like milk the moment he spoke it IMO.
I totally saw and knew it was Devito playing the Penguin. Colin completely disappears, almost to the point you wonder why they chose him to play the role. I'm glad he did, his acting is phenomenal!
I had no idea that was Colin Farrell. That says a lot about his acting ability. Devito kinda reminds me of the Penguin, like that's who he is in some ways. Both are excellent though h. But Michelle Pfeiffer as catwoman - she had me at meow!
Saying the new Penguin isn't very fleshed out then going ahead and claiming that nobody asked for a Penguin series is pretty wild. Looks like someone has a bias right there...
I see why they want to and are doing the HBO Max series. I saw The Batman twice in theaters and twice on HBO Max and I have to say, Colin’s performance stole the movie for me. He was already my favorite part of The Batman, but the more times over I saw the movie the more it only invigorated my love for Colin’s performance. As a Batman fan, I’ve seen every performance of the Penguin and I have to say my number one is Colin. It was most definitely a Penguin I can see in reality. I love that.
@@LeSteeler everyone is entitled to their opinion, i have to agree with you though, both performances are amazing and we've only seen the tip of the iceberg with Colin's Penguin. I will say I love Colin's performance more 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
For me, every movie of Batman has a different genre for the audience to watch. It is really hard to compare the characters. Both of them are good. It is like listening to classical or pop music.
You pretty much nailed it! I like the comic style Penguin that Devito portrayed better, I Love Collin but his style of Penguin was more of a mafia type which is great but like you said its either pop or classical! I relate to the comic style better cause I grew up in that era of superhero's and villains.
@@jasonsjustbetter2037 except a lot of people liked the joker before Heath ledger, you're all just kids who weren't old enough to remember all the other Jokers as well as Heath
@@richardarnez4932 I mean I personally wasn't a big fan of nickolsons joker, I always felt the animated versions were always better, the heath ledgers gave us a truly spectacular performance that gave us gritty more real joker, I mean thats what those movies were trying to do and they did it well. I believe that's what they were going for here to I feel that Colin's penguin is very comparable to heaths joker.
I love Danny Devito’s take on the character, I love the look and mannerisms of Danny’s penguin. He’s got a much richer backstory, he’s more tragic, more dramatic but in doing so he’s much less realistic but much more entertaining and relatable as a character.
>much richer backstory Stop it >much more tragic His story is more Melo dramatically tragic because otherwise it would be impossible to feel anything other then pure cheese otherwise >more dramatic Okay sure just preface the drama with melo.
@@yahboymilk4032 But he does have a much more detailed background. Prior to Burton’s take on the character he was a crime lord. That’s about it. After Batman returns his later reiterations incorporated the mutation and the social ostracism. As well as his noble background. He’s more tragic than his previous reiterations and any therefore after. Devito’s take on the character is more dramatic which makes the character less realistic but far more entertaining to watch. And he’s relatable in the sense that he strives for acceptance from his peers.
Devito's penguin is iconic nothing can and will be taken away from that, Colin's penguin did play well and his take in the batman will be remembered. Both can't be dissed as devito was one of the originals and Colin's is the new era. But I think what people sometimes don't see first is. It's not how you look it's how you preform. Big example there is only one marvel/DC villian that has defined that the fact the way you preform is the way you show who you are, and that one icon is the joker. what I'm getting at is yes both devito and Colin do look different but they both did justice in bring this icon villian to life.
I think DeVito nails it when he points out the films are VERY different and go for different things, each actor was I believe perfectly cast for their respective films/roles.
@@thebyrdcage8619 michelle was 34 in batman returns and Zoe was 34 in the batman, so same age, Fun fact, There is 30 years between the two movies (1992 and 2022 ) and 30 years between Michelle and Zoe (1958-1988) !
I think Colin Ferrell's Penguin sounds a little like Danny Devito. I also think with prosthetics Danny Devito could have looked like The Batman's Penguin and given an equally great gritty performance.
I agree, Danny's portrayal is just pedestrian and hokey even if he does bring it with the acting. It would be like if devito did the joker and wore size 26 clown shoes, and him and his 30 henchman drove in the same smart car. And was doing circus shit all the time. The point of the characters names like penguin and joker is that they are a fun recognized way of portraying deeper parts of those character. Joker being an agent of chaos and testing batman's code and will about law and order.
I guess I didn’t ask for a penguin series…but when announced, knowing I’d get to see Colin Farrell back as Oz, was awesome. And the first episode was awesome!
As usual “snarky critic guy” makes the cliché comment of “series nobody asked for” (which is literally EVERY series) and the actual series turned out phenomenally.
Burgess Meredith will always be the quintessential Penguin to me - the way he walked, the way he went "hwa hwa hwa" - any subsequent iteration of Penguin I always end up comparing to Burgess Meredith
Similar to Caesar Romero's Joker, Meredith had an absolutely lethal vocabulary with which he'd dress a person down with Shakespearean flair while brandishing a cigarette holder in the corner of his mouth like a surrogate saber.
Nolan North’s voice from the Arkham series for me. Perfect mix between Burgess and Colin, while still retaining the Britishness, and making the monocle a bit more gritty by replacing it with a smashed bottle in his eye.
That's not a bad Penguin at all, i always enjoyed the 60s Batman, Riddler was my favorite his giggles and Riddles. Yeah he was an awesome villain. All of them were. Colin's Penguin though just, it's just amazing, I LOVE IT.
That last line didnt age well at all. Even I was not super interested in a Penguin show but damn they managed to changed all of our '' nobody asked for comments"', by producing one of the best comic book shows ever/ one of the best shows of the year in general
I prefer the older Batman’s as well. I was a little kid when the first Batman(1989) movie came out. The amazement I felt watching that movie can never be duplicated.
Nobody has to "ask" for any particular movie or TV show to be made. People are just asking and demanding that the movies and TV shows that are made to be good.
The ending of this aged like milk. The penguin is one of the greatest shows on television right now and headed towards several Emmys. I guess great things come to those that don't request.
“That no one asked for” Just because you didn’t that doesn’t mean no one did. Honestly it’s something I can’t wait for and the most exciting piece of comic book tv to come out since the daredevil show.
I said the same thing bro! Of course we didn’t ask for it, but we didn’t ask for this new Batman and I’m so glad we got it. If anyone in this new Batman universe deserves more of a back story it’s Colin Farrell’s Penguin.
True, but after this new Batman movie I'm interested to see what they can do. I think we can see more villians that way instead of pumping out more Batman installments
I loved both of their portrayals of Penguin in Batman Returns and The Batman. I do tend to favor Batman Returns' Penguin a little more because it's more closely aligned with the classical features of the Penguin. A top hat, monocle, umbrella and bird like features are all classic ingredients when making the Penguin. Definitely loved the portrayals of Penguin in the Gotham series and the Arkham video games.
Pengujin may have been (according to you) a series no one asked for but has turned into one the better things on TV. So, thank Good no one listened to you.
That "nobody asked for" comment didn't age well there buddy. That "Penguin" HBO series was one of the best batman universe based story archs in the history of television. Even if it was condensed into a movie it would've still been better than both Joker films while being critically acclaimed. 😂
"It's leading to a Penguin limited series that nobody asked for, idk." That take did NOT age well at all. These are the things you say when you're stuck in nostalgia land.
@@Pactastic042 Farrell and Devito lol. Farrell's Penguin is very realistic and is a mob boss much how Penguin is in the comics. Loved it because it was dark and excited for his show.
Nobody Asked for Huh WTF I think People did ask for it so that’s why it’s a series on Max now and Both actors are great as the Penguin it’s just a different take of the Character
Both interpretations have merit. Danny's was more over-the-top while Colin's is more grounded. I prefer Colin's take overall. That 1st episode of Penguin was awesome.
Honestly until somebody does a very comic accurate penguin, who is as much a gentleman as he is a master Criminal and crime lord, Danny is still going to be the best penguin in the live-action for me. Also to anybody who played the 2005 Fantastic Four game based on the film, is it me or did mole man also look like Danny
I agree but I’m not the biggest fan of devitos take, burgess Meredith is by far my personal favourite villain of all time and will be the best most accurate take of gentleman of crime, it’s a shame they made him some boring ass mob boss like we haven’t got enough of them in Gotham instead of a expert criminal who loves crime.
If you're going for the comic book look, there's no question that Devito's penguin is better. But on an acting context, Colin's is way better because considering that he's not even american, he had to do a lot more acting. Colin did a great job portraying a mob boss villain.
Are you high? Colin Farrell's Penguin is literally Penguin from the comic books. Devito's Penguin has nothing to do with Batman, it's a made up character written by Burton who had no idea what Batman even was.
@@FuzzyDlop Actually Tim Burton had more creative control making Batman Returns and made Penguin and Catwoman the way he wanted to. I think the negative about Batman Returns that Tim Burton's Catwoman was too sexual (I think Catwoman licking Batman under a mistletoe and her on Penguin's bed was too much that it wasn't suitable for kids).
The Batman was actually very good, despite it being nearly 3 hours. I really enjoyed the iterations of all the characters. The new Penguin definitely reminds me of the more realistic versions in teh comics that I loved.
Lol the only other movie I remember saying “almost 3 hours is a little bit long…” is actually _The Dark Knight_ (2008)….. y’know…. Also dark and gritty Batman, hahahha
What I like about Danny DeVito's portrayal of penguin is it's not completely evil. The Batman series always had a slight touch of comedy in it. The more recent Batman's have abandoned that element that tells you the villains weren't always evil. There's still a thread of who they were before they became completely evil and that gives you the hope that their characters still have a shred of good in them. Maybe you don't have to to kill them, maybe you can still reach them, maybe they can be reformed. Maybe there's hope for society. Batman Returns is the Pinnacle. There's a point where The Batman series becomes completely creepy.
Danny gave us the fantastic version of The Penguin. Colin has given us a Penguin that's been mainlining Sopranos episodes. I imagine they could give us an awesome version of Black Mask or some of the more grounded criminals in Gotham
"That nobody asked for" but everyone needed. This video didn't age well, for those of you who haven't watched it yet the first 2 episodes are out and it's fucking amazing. Easily one of if not top 3 best shows of the year.

That's so Amazing and I'm so happy to have such a great name like yiu on my C-list .... Nevertheless, where are you streaming from?
I love all three of their takes. Also love the actor from the old 60’s Batman show with Adam West, Eartha Kitt, etc.
@@Pactastic042 Farrell and Devito lol. Farrell's Penguin is very realistic and is a mob boss much how Penguin is in the comics. Loved it because it was dark and excited for his show.
Nobody Asked for Huh WTF I think People did ask for it so that’s why it’s a series on Max now and Both actors are great as the Penguin it’s just a different take of the Character
Colin performance are fantastic!! 11/10
Both interpretations have merit. Danny's was more over-the-top while Colin's is more grounded. I prefer Colin's take overall. That 1st episode of Penguin was awesome.
who would have thought that the penguin show would be the best show of 2024.
By " No Body " You mean Yourself .. here after 3rd Episode.
I guess you feel stupid now about making that "nobody asked for" comment.
"Nobody asked for" .... i would have never clicked this video if it wasnt for that show... u should be thankful
Yeah talk about a serious misjudgement there and a pre-judgement in fact!
I love the new Penguin series! I was a hardcore fan of the old movies, but this new iteration is by far the best!
That HBO Show became one of the best shows to hit Tv sooo this didnt age well
Danny DeVito’s Penguin flew away on an propeller umbrella. Colin Farrell’s Penguin rolled a Maserati. I like both.
That's a very funny expression you've gotten there, Where are you streaming from?
Honestly until somebody does a very comic accurate penguin, who is as much a gentleman as he is a master Criminal and crime lord, Danny is still going to be the best penguin in the live-action for me.
Also to anybody who played the 2005 Fantastic Four game based on the film, is it me or did mole man also look like Danny
I agree but I’m not the biggest fan of devitos take, burgess Meredith is by far my personal favourite villain of all time and will be the best most accurate take of gentleman of crime, it’s a shame they made him some boring ass mob boss like we haven’t got enough of them in Gotham instead of a expert criminal who loves crime.
"that nobody asked for"
and that it's the highest rated show on television atm
This video should be called “I react to Danny De Vito reacting to Colin Farrell’s Penguin”. So much interrupting!
I wonder now that the HBO Penguin series has wrapped up 2 years later if he's eating his snarky "That nobody asked for?" words?
Well, this didn't age well...
Aged like shit! The penguin series is killing it!
Penguin Show that nobody asked for ? Comment didn’t age well huh
new penguin has a robert deniro vibe.
If you're going for the comic book look, there's no question that Devito's penguin is better. But on an acting context, Colin's is way better because considering that he's not even american, he had to do a lot more acting. Colin did a great job portraying a mob boss villain.
Are you high? Colin Farrell's Penguin is literally Penguin from the comic books. Devito's Penguin has nothing to do with Batman, it's a made up character written by Burton who had no idea what Batman even was.
@@FuzzyDlop FR LIKE BRUH THIS GUY HAS IT ALL MIXED UP
Nah bro you got it all fucked up, COLINS PENGUIN IS THE ONE FROM THE COMICS!
@@FuzzyDlop not the Finger/Moldoff run :) but definitely the later comics, yes, The Iceberg Lounge and all.
@@FuzzyDlop Actually Tim Burton had more creative control making Batman Returns and made Penguin and Catwoman the way he wanted to. I think the negative about Batman Returns that Tim Burton's Catwoman was too sexual (I think Catwoman licking Batman under a mistletoe and her on Penguin's bed was too much that it wasn't suitable for kids).
The Batman was actually very good, despite it being nearly 3 hours. I really enjoyed the iterations of all the characters. The new Penguin definitely reminds me of the more realistic versions in teh comics that I loved.
It needed more street fights. The gang fight in the intro needed to be wayyy longer
Lol the only other movie I remember saying “almost 3 hours is a little bit long…” is actually _The Dark Knight_ (2008)….. y’know…. Also dark and gritty Batman, hahahha
How is being 3 hours long a bad thing?
the series is fire I didn't ask for it but I will be asking for it from now on 🤝💯🔥
What I like about Danny DeVito's portrayal of penguin is it's not completely evil. The Batman series always had a slight touch of comedy in it. The more recent Batman's have abandoned that element that tells you the villains weren't always evil.
There's still a thread of who they were before they became completely evil and that gives you the hope that their characters still have a shred of good in them.
Maybe you don't have to to kill them, maybe you can still reach them, maybe they can be reformed.
Maybe there's hope for society.
Batman Returns is the Pinnacle.
There's a point where The Batman series becomes completely creepy.
am glad to have such a loyal and loving fan following. I am very thank full too you all and love you all!
So tell me , where are you streaming from?
Heath still has comedy in his version of The Joker but I agree with you it's not the same as in the older ones, but then again it is the joker
Danny gave us the fantastic version of The Penguin.
Colin has given us a Penguin that's been mainlining Sopranos episodes. I imagine they could give us an awesome version of Black Mask or some of the more grounded criminals in Gotham
2:26 well…this aged..very, Very poorly
Danny and Colin are both great!
"That nobody asked for" but everyone needed. This video didn't age well, for those of you who haven't watched it yet the first 2 episodes are out and it's fucking amazing. Easily one of if not top 3 best shows of the year.
Nobody ask but it bows my head
One of the best series I have ever seen in my life
