The Official James Gordon thread.

Discuss, post pictures and more....

Gary Oldman plays him the best

The comics Jim Gordon also rocks

I may have to post some scans of Gordon owning Mr. Freeze.

Don't care for James Gordon, just another side character.

Don't really care for James Gordon, he's alright, but IMO just another side character.

I disagree. He's a great character. One of the few really human characters in Batman, and Gary Oldman was so perfect for the role...

I think there was too much hype for Gary Oldman, he did a good job, nothing I would say "Oh my, that was awesome"

He was pretty much perfect for the role. I'm not saying he did anything absolutely spectacular, but he did absolutely everything required for the role of Gordon- of course the role wouldn't be as lively or memorable as The Joker (or even Batman/ Harvey Dent). Also, one must remember that that isn't really a role one would expect of Gary Oldman, who generally seems to play psychopathic bad guys (True Romance, Air Force One, Leon, Dracula, etc.). Plus his American accent is, as far as I can tell, pretty damn good (though I am English, so I could be mistaken; I've not heard any complaints, either this time or in other times he's used an American accent).
