Inspiration?
editThis article says that “this version of the Penguin inspired the character's depiction in other works, such as Batman: The Animated Series and The Batman, mostly in the terms of appearance.” What is this based on? Yes, there are similarities between this and the one in TAS, but the Penguin first appeared in TAS just a month or so after Batman Returns debuted in theatres. If I were to guess, I would say that the reason for the similarities is that both are inspired by Burgess Meredith’s Penguin from the 60s show.
I see no relevant similarities between this and Oswald Cobblepot in the Batman. Carissimi (talk) 17:10, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
Merge request
editPer WP:NFILMCHAR, this article fails the "Three or more non-cameo appearances" criteria, although I'm curious to see if there was more extensive coverage on Danny Devito's portrayal of the Penguin. However, the sources currently listed in the article seem to be lacking. WuTang94 (talk) 23:47, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Imo this character is not so notable. I suggest to merge the content of this page into Penguin in other media#Live-action Redjedi23 (talk) 14:16, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- Support. Seems straightforwardly appropriate. — Moriwen (talk) 16:41, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
- Support: A lot of the content can easily be condensed and folded into the destination article. Also the Legacy section just depicts Penguin in other media, further supporting the argument. It's a pretty easy yes from me. Dcdiehardfan (talk) 23:43, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
