WARNING! MINOR SPOILERS BELOW! READ AT OWN RISK! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!
The story itself will be original in itself, but will obviously have a heavy comic book reference. Both a unique take on a story that has been told, and also straight from the pages type situations. As we saw last night, the inspiration for the script doesn't stop with the comic books. With the city looking to reopen Arkham Asylum, or a updated version of it, we saw a "Batman: Arkham City" video game reference with one of the plans. One of the plans is to burn down the asylum, and build a "city", Arkham City.
Likely will be nothing more than a story plot to rival the reopening of Arkham Asylum, making for some action packed conflict. And I say this, as on a visual level for now, Arkham Asylum looked absolutely amazing last night on "Gotham". Especially at night. It makes for a perfect location to shoot scenes that require a certain level of darkness, or creepiness. And this is just the exterior. I can imagine what could be created for within the walls of the madhouse. Which could also make for a perfect setting to develop other characters, and most notably the villains. Why not have Jonathan Crane aka The Scarecrow make his debut as a doctor at the newly opened Arkham Asylum? Where he begins his fear experiments? Have Arkham Asylum be responsible for creating the "monsters" that will eventually signal the need for Batman. Or at least have them ready to go once Bats takes down the mob.Or will we see Arkham City come to be? Regardless, it will be quite interesting to see what else "Gotham" chooses to sample from or give a nod to in future episodes. With the series understandably getting signed on for a full season, we'll actually get to see how things play out. And as an initial anti-Gotham person, I am looking forward to how they keep me from missing Batman. Which they continued to do last night.
