All That Money // Bruce Wayne [Gotham]

OR How Baby Batman Learned to Start Punching His Problems. Like/Reblog on tumblr: vimesbootstheory.tumblr.com/po...
A coming-of-age thing about growing up far too fast, with far too much money, under the sentence of prescribed heroism. Featuring Alfred and Selina, because natch.
I feel like The Point of this show is probably that old chestnut about Batman's villains being more compelling than Batman himself, but woops, here I am more interested in the growing pains of the classic protagonist than any of the nutty shenanigans everybody else gets up to.

[@nationalsocialist4843]

Did anyone else forget how small David mazouz was at the start of the show?

[@randomvampire1822]

they got him right before his growth spurt, perfect

[@Scoutinger]

Yes

[@insertstutterthatsallfolks7486]

When selina kyle was taller than him lol

This song actually sums up what Bruce does and goes through, and does anyone else feel like Selina would be singing this to him cos to me it would make sense

Yeah i tought i was the only one who felt like this

I think it's the best vid about Bruce from this tv show. Wow. I really love that

[@absinthespoons]

Aw, thanks! That's a lovely compliment, I'm glad you liked it. :)

[@calvintyler9281]

Lirenna there aren't many good ones to be honest, this is the best one I've seen.

[@absinthespoons]

OK, well. A bit backhanded, but I'll take it lol. Thanks...?

[@MrClock-ui3gw]

I agree it’s fucking mint and sums up what Bruce goes through and to me it feels as if Selina would be saying these lyrics to him

[@kylequeen9953]

Batman: TO THE Batcave Pull the lever Alfred
Alfred: pulls lever
Batman: WRONG LEVERRRRRrrrrrrrrrrr
Alfred: oh dear

[@lw523]

I started watching gotham because of this fanvid haha, I had no idea Bruce was so involved since he's so young until I saw this

[@absinthespoons]

Nice! Bruce's role grows as the show progresses.

[@TufShadow]

This video is so good, I've watched it about 10 times already! I like how little kid Bruce becomes grown man here. He is so little at the beginning, but at the end he already has black costume, kick-ass attitude, and tough look in the eyes... Since 4th season he really has become my favourite character, because of his character study.. their relationship with alfred is fantastic! I really love it, and I like your video so much! Great work! These frames are perfectly fit with the music and idea of the song! Thank you)))

[@absinthespoons]

What a great comment! Your thoughts made me smile, and made my afternoon. I'm glad the video held up to so many viewings! Bruce has really had a great character arc, it's been the most pleasant surprise of the show for me, so exploring it in video form was really fun :)

[@unchartedgaming7323]

It makes me so sad that this show is ending.😭 But I can’t wait for the next episode of season 5 this Thursday.

[@graysongainey8313]

[@bettsponytail6137]

WOW
The best edit about Bruce that I've ever seen!
Truly a masterpiece

[@absinthespoons]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it :)

[@sachinalani]

honestly i'm sure at least 1,000 of these views are me....
seriously though this is amazing and the best baby!bruce edit i've seen yet. the song choice, the clips, the editing... goodness. also, totally agree with your description lol. the show does well with the other characters, but seeing bruce grow into his own is far more interesting to me. idk why, probably because he's one of the very few people in the show that actively strive to do right despite all the crap thrown his way. there's something very intriguing and hopeful about that, especially in a series as grim as gotham.
or maybe i'm reading too much into it and i'm just a sucker for coming-of-age stories idk lmao. this is a fantastic edit either way, and i keep finding myself coming back to it. excellent work my dude!

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks so much! What a great comment. I think your reasons for enjoying bruce's character make sense, and can relate. it's really cool to see bruce's character evolve in response to what gotham (the city, not the show) has become, it's something the show has done really well.

[@sandratanyi]

Great song choice. I love your video. It captures Bruce's stolen childhood really well.

[@absinthespoons]

Thank you! That's what I was aiming for, so I'm glad it came across :)

[@NightStar177]

I restarted to watched Gotham all over again thanks to your beautiful video.Gotham Bruce Wayne is a very well developed character .How he progresses into a small boy to a man who becomes a protector of Gotham.I love how the song fits Bruce so well.I remember watching this in highschool and talking about this with my teacher (who I was close to during some hard times at home ) .He was such a Batman and Dc fan.Everytime a new epsiode came on we talked about it the next day when I was at school. Anyways (sorry for the rant their it just brought up so many good memories) , This vid is prefect !

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks for sharing this with me! I'd start a rewatch too if I hadn't literally just finished one, lol. Love hearing about encountering gotham/batman fans in the wild.

[@Hawk_Moskowitz]

Bruce wayne is Batman :D

[@lilyknight1279]

the best Gotham edit, it captures Bruce’s character development perfectly

[@absinthespoons]

:DD thank you!

[@kashxy3496]

the best bruce wayne edit i’ve seen, hands down.

[@absinthespoons]

Thank you, glad you liked it! :)

[@kashxy3496]

absinthespoons liked it? i loved it. i listen to it on repeat while writing, because i can imagine the video. you have a gift! 💛

[@mash4744]

This is so amazing. Ever since I started watching Gotham (like 2 and a half years ago) I've constantly watched fan videos and edit and posts and I will say that this is definitely one of the best, visually, musically, aesthetically, conceptually and time-wise.

[@absinthespoons]

Wow, thank you! What a flattering comment, blushing tbh. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@bellacostanza8729]

just want u to know i watch this vid legit every day

[@absinthespoons]

Haha awesome, thanks for all the views! Glad you liked it enough to keep coming back :)

[@austinshinzato477]

yep its my religion

[@Dakota-Rose]

Best video of Bruce I’ve seen so far!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Music, editing it’s the whole package. Since the killing of his parents he lost his innocense. I’m happy for Bruce that Alfred is being a constant, stable factor in his life. He is his father figure, a mother, everything. Gotham portrays all the characters so well. Your video adds a beautiful depth to the show.

[@absinthespoons]

Thank you!! I'm so flattered and I agree completely with your take on the show. Especially re: Alfred, their dynamic is so vital to the strength of the show as a whole.

[@Dakota-Rose]

absinthespoons You’re so welcome! :)

[@caitlintucker3759]

Wow... that was INCREDIBLE!!! I feel like there aren't enough Bruce Wayne that show his transformation and pain thoroughout the last 4 seasons but captured it perfectly could you do another Bruce Wayne edit? It would mean the world to me. Keep up the stunning work!!!

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I tend to vid pretty slowly so unfortunately the next Gotham vid probably won't be out this calendar year, I'll probably wait until s5. The request is flattering though :)

[@TheLegendaryGamerTLG]

Best Gotham tribute, OMG watched this like 200 times

That's definitly the best Video from Bruce Wayne. Good job! And David is such a good actor.

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks so much! Very glad you liked it. And agreed, Mazouz's talent is impressive considering his age.

[@nationalsocialist4843]

absinthespoons and the fact that he's nothing like Bruce Wayne

[@nationalsocialist4843]

Like his personality and stuff that kinda looked like a hate comment sorry

Happy birthday Bruce Wayne!

the scariest non-meta to ever exist had to start out somewhere
he's not going to stop getting back up and he's going to be an urban legend of an avenging demon that can't be killed and oh boy you are going to be unbelievable

[@gale_mau]

I have to second all the other comments that I've seen here - this is an absolute joy to watch. Your editing is so sharp and pointed, and really emphasizes the character arc that Bruce has been on through the show.
This is just such a FUN video to watch, I'm 100% sure I could show this to friends who havent even seen gotham and go "this is bb batman" and they would Get It. Just an absolutely great music video. (And great song choice!)

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks so much! I love detailed, lovely comments like this that point out specific aspects of a vid that let me go back and re-watch with a new perspective and appreciation. "Sharp and pointed", I love that, that made my day. I also really like when my videos are accessible to non-viewers of the source material, so your point on that is much appreciated.

[@diyana4935]

I really love your editing work, I think it's really cool how you sync the punches and hits with the beat of the music, awesome job!!!!

I love the show and song, got to play on repeat!

[@user-kd5qs2ql7t]

I can't get this video and song out of my head. This is probably one of the best edits I've ever seen. This is so accurate, and although I've never seen the show, I'm a big DC fan, and this beyond convinced me to watch the show. This is absolutely beautiful. No words

[@absinthespoons]

Wow, thanks so much! This is such a lovely comment, I love hearing that my videos hold up even if you don't already watch the show. Hope you end up enjoying Gotham, it's pretty bonkers but ridiculously fun, and imo it's got a wonderful character arc for a younger Bruce Wayne.

[@user-kd5qs2ql7t]

absinthespoons yw!! You totally deserve the support and love. It's such a beautiful video, honestly. And thanks!! I know for a fact that I'll enjoy Gotham

[@nadinesu-hl6165]

Oh this is hilarious.... so well made, the cutting, this song.... wow.... I'm still obessed with this show and here in Germany we're finally getting the last season. It was a hell of a ride, and to me Bruce' journey is the best of it..... and David did the best job ever on his take of the .... well .... future Batman...

[@absinthespoons]

Thanks! And congrats on finally getting your hands on S5. I agree, Bruce's arc is the best part :D

I'm very late, but I just recently finished season 4. Because I'm in the UK, the episode come out super slow! I can't wait for season 5 and this is definitely the best Bruce mv I've ever seen. I love all of the characters developments and I can't believe how grown up Bruce and Selina are now. Even the villains look so different! Sorry for Rambling but I just wanted to share my appreciation for this mv xD

[@absinthespoons]

Wow, thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the vid. :)
A secret twin is definitely an exceedingly silly twist but I'm willing to see where they go with it, if for nothing else than the fact that the actor is pretty damn good at the dual role thing so far.
