Gotham Season 3 Analysis
Gotham City fell into the depths of hell this week. Gotham Season 3 concluded this week. They split the season finale into two episodes; both already stirring up expectations and assumptions. Spoiler Alert!

Season three has the largest list of A-list heroes from the DC Comic Universe introduced in Gotham thus far. It carries everyone's origin stories, from Gordon, Bruce Wayne, to the Penguin and Selina Kyle. The season ended with characters stabilizing their identities and those who couldn't have a stable sense of self, lost the battle. There is a huge emphasis that knowing yourself is the strongest ability one can have. Along with the moral messages, the episode was very encapsulating.

The soundtrack choice is beautiful. It befits the moments,

heart, Bullock points to purpose. These are all important factors to being a hero.

The major villains are aware of each other now. Penguin, Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Riddler, we finally see Ra's al Ghul and find out that Selina is a master with the whip (Catwoman's most skilled weapon). This season has set up a serious chess board.

Another new villain is introduced. Fish's old henchman, Butch is Cyrus Gold. Who is Cyrus Gold? My idea is that he might be Solomon Grundy.

The Penguin and Riddler face-off felt anti-climatic, but I was rooting for Penguin. With him winning, at least Nygma will stay alive. Ivy and Penguin discussing Penguin's ice-fort was a treat to see though. They're very delightful together.

Gordon was able to save the woman he loved, Dr. Lee. Superhero series and films have "love" being this strong force of power, and it was what kept Gordon in control of the virus until he could get to Lee. With the help of Detective Bullock, he saved them both. Bullock does not get enough credit in the series. He's involved with all the solutions: finding the bomb, finding the cure, stealing the cure, saving Jim, and the list can

    We are in a day and age now where the term or label nerd and geek are more of a social norm rather than a derogatory term for certain people. There is a huge movement with fantasy and sci-fi becoming more and more popular within the last couple of years. With this being said the movie market is a perfect example of a market that is flooded with these more action packed sci-fi and comic book films to a point almost every other month is a new film that follow something that falls under these criteria. The Fantastic Four movie which came out in in early August of 2015.…

    While there were a few questionable jokes, such as Piggy flying into a rage by finding out her dress size and using feminism as a tactic to get Miss Piggy to break up with Josh Groban, it wasn’t as depressing as the first episode. The whole Fozzy storyline was more in line with what you expect from the Muppets and was a good balance to the Kermit and Piggy drama. Pepe having no shame in saying that he was attracted to Josh Groban and that gender is fluid also counterbalanced the comments about Piggy not know her own age or weight. Josh Groban was pretty great in this episode, especially when he says Kermit “wouldn’t the world be a bit better if everyone was a bit more like me?” The weed joke about the Electric Dream Machine was on the grown-up side, but it is something that everyone has talked about since the Muppets have been around so I didn’t have a problem with it. They just need to make Kermit a bit happier, the joke about waking up to the sound of his alarm instead of his screams was a bit depressing, but this episode was a huge improvement from the pilot.…

    I liked that the writer lets the characters lead the story in this pilot. Marisol’s character is opinionated and impulsive, yet shy and timid all at the same time. She wears the armor of a runaway, forgotten kid who is used to fending for herself, but given the slightest push reveals just how out of place she is making her a great anchor for unpredictability in the script.…

    Feminism in a simple definition refers to women’s movements, and feminism is a subject that is on going which has become a forum for debate in relation to television and film. My main focus will be feminism in the television series ‘The Sopranos’ which will be used as a case study to examine the theory of feminism plus psychoanalysis and how it’s inflicted on the screen. An academic book that I have selected will allow me to approach feminism in ‘The Sopranos’ and I have also picked a certain chapter from the book “Reading The Sopranos’ Edited by David Lavery, chapter 3 ‘What has Carmela ever done for Feminism’? Carmela Soprano and the Post-Feminist…

    It’s been made clear by the author, that the average American citizen does not possess an optimal knowledge on mathematics. Assuming that his words reflect the truth, naturally. The sole fact that society has converted the incapacity of an adult to perform basic mental processes into a laughing matter, reveals the alarming condition of the country’s masses. Therefore, without any developed mathematical skills, it wouldn’t be too implausible to believe that a standard individual is unable to tell, or at least estimate, the consistency of any given statistic. Nonetheless, Joel Best’s goal is not to prove the inefficiency of the education system, but the credulity and lack of judgment of the general public.…

    One of the most impressionable events was on the second day of the experiment. On this particular day, Jane Elliot called the children together to discuss what had been happening for the past two days. Once the children were discussing how it made them feel and how wrong it was to treat people that way, I thought that it was amazing that third graders could relate the experiment to real life discrimination. I feel that these children really learned what is was like to discriminate against someone and to be discriminated against.…

    I did not like the part of the story where Cappie accuses Lois of being angry with Lucy and pushing her off the cliff. I understand why she did so and why Atwood included it in the story, but it made me angry. That sentence is what caused Lois to feel guilty her whole life. Even though she was not responsible, Lois spent the rest of her life looking for Lucy.…

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer, as a series, has been discussed countless times in a number of different articles. Two specific kinds used most by viewers or researchers, are scholarly and popular sources. Scholarly sources are those that have been approved by a group with recognized advanced knowledge in the field under discussion, written to inform other scholars or students. Popular sources are usually magazines or articles written based off opinions for mass consumption. This essay will reflect my interpretation on the vast differences and similarities between these sources. This reflection is shown through two sources about Buffy Studies, a term used to describe the collections of works written about the television program that analyze the…
