@inferiorego: btw that isn't the dollmaker, dollmaker has already appeared in arrow and they share same universe
Arrow and Gotham do NOT share the same universe. Arrow and Flash do.
When was this confirmed?
Arrow DOES exist in a Batman Universe. It was confirmed in the Flash pilot, the newspaper read ''Queen Industries merge with Wayne Enterprises''. I have no idea WHICH Universe of Batman that is, however.
I do recall the makers of Gotham saying Bruce will become Batman on the last episode, so it is feasible that Gotham takes place somewhere in the 1990's to match the timeline.

Gotham is a Fox production. Arrow and Flash are CW. That's confirmation enough. Will there be a Bruce Wayne on Arrow? Probably, but it won't be the same Bruce Wayne from Gotham. They're separate universes.
Download the hola plug in for the chrome broswer. Problem solved. However it is sad that DC are having many rules against Europe. Making the trailers and contents restricted. In a globalizing word it seems weird to be so focused on your domestic country rather than branching out.
Pyg is the Ballon Man from the next episode. I also like that Zzassz is starting out erly, and we're getting a young Harvey Dent soon (not Bruce, Selina, Ivy young) but more a contemporary of Gordon.
@mynameiswill: Ok maybe not 50's and 60's but most have to be pushing thirty in the series, so let's 40's and maybe a few in their 50's.
Yeah it's ridiculous.
Like seriously? Zsasz and The Riddler being THAT much older than Batman? I seriously don't buy it. I want to like this show, but this super villain cramming is just going mess up these characters.
I can tell you right now, no one will be older than they have to be, even if they are, the idea that all of Batman's villains have to be his age is stupid.
@soa: These characters are evolving into the villains that Batman will face in the future. Nothing silly about that. Lots of Batman's villians are sorta old anyway.
It's very silly when the Batman is supposed to bring out these villains in Gotham. It really lessens Batman's impact if he just followed the lead of villains before him instead of the other way around.
Also a lot of the villains showed in this show aren't even supposed to be that much older than Bruce. Like seriously, Zsasz being around 50 whenever Bruce is around 30? It just seems really weird to me. I just think that this show should be about Gotham before Batman and his villains, because before Batman there weren't these bad guys. I'm fine with cameo's and what not, but I feel like they're going to push it too far.
Seriously though, you think Batman got there and people just decided they'd be a villain ( a few did ). There had to be low-key story behind it. Even if they do use some of his villains, so what? It'll be that much more entertaining.
Before Batman, maybe there wasn't these bad people, but this show is basically demonstrating how these people were before they turn into what Batman faces in the future.
Pretty much my thoughts exactly. I always hated the Batman created the villains argument, and this is basically demonstrating that GOTHAM created it's own monsters, and a few heroes to save it in the form of Gordon, Dent and finally Batman. And at the most these villains will be 10-15 years older than Bruce or so, and that's not that big a difference in age. That's like saying 25 year olds and 35 year olds can't compete at the same level.

it's the same way there is a green arrow in smallville and one in Arrow. Two completely different universes, same characters.
Flash and Arrow = yes
Arrow and Gotham = no
Even if they are in the same "universe" they aren't even in the same time period so it still wouldn't make much difference. Plus one is CW the other is not.
