The Dark Knight Rises

[Alex]

Maybe a reboot into the wildly successful continuity of the Green Lantern film?

 

[X-SOLDIER]

I'm pretty sure that once Nolan's trilogy is done, they'll attempt to bring Batman back towards larger involvement with the rest of the DC Univserse. On that note, I've always wondered why DC hasn't gotten a CG animation studio to do a full film, like Blur did for their DCUO trailer.

They've got a lot of really excellent and iconic VAs, and they seem to do fairly well with their animated films regardless of which character they deal with. I think that high-end CGI is an underused format for more serious/realistic films, but one that has the potential to work really well as a feature film for a Superhero movie. The standard cartoon animation works for their DVD films, but I'd really like to see a full CG film that can get the superheroes from the DC Universe done right, without having to worrk about marrying real actors with it into something like Green Lantern.

"What."

A Stock Phrase when it comes to reactions, but a simple one. Although it is just one word, the way in which it is pronounced can speak volumes about how absurd (or mundane) the situation can be, simply by how and where the inflection in a speaker's voice (if any) is used. In written speech, it's supplemented by the punctuation following it. For example:

"What?" Standard reaction, used in everyday speech; slightly rising inflection (clarify what someone said, being asked a favor, etc.)

"What?!" Sharper inflection indicating a level of surprise (disturbing news, something you may need to sit down for, etc.)

"What!?" An accusatory or intimidating statement; "I'm in your face, what are you going to do about it!?"

"WHAT?!" "WHAAAAAT?!?!?!" et al; New levels of absurdity have been hit (Variations on the length of the word and (ab)use of ? and ! as needed; this is the one most often used for comic effect)

None of the above are examples of this trope. That's below.

"What." You've just been witness to something so bizarre, so eye-crossingly stupid (or possibly so mind-crushingly terrifying as to put you beyond the capacity for rational thought), that your brain no longer has the cognitive faculties to put together a more articulate response.

Think of it this way. You were trying to say WTF with the emphasis on F, but your brain short-circutied before getting to The.

And that's exactly how it's written, too: "what" with a period at the end. Some people cut this down even farther, going with "wha", "wat", "wut?" or similar. Sometimes appears on forums and image boards as the memes "what is this i don't even" and "i am 12 and what is this" (no punctuation whatsoever and the i not capitalized) and the immortal LOL WUT (all caps, spelling of the second word, and no punctuation whatsoever)— more complex, but still indicating that the speaker is too gobsmacked to be capable of a coherent sentence.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: "What", in this context, is an interjection. Sentences consisting only of an interjection require an exclamation point. Interjections need to end with either an exclamation point or a comma (a dash or ellipse would also work), and (obviously) you can't end a sentence with a comma. "What!" is grammatical, as is "What?" (an interrogative), but "What." is not. However, "What." is how this trope is written, and "What." is how it shall remain. Just because it's not grammatical, doesn't mean it's not expressive. Dialogue is not required to be grammatically correct.

Thing is, most (read: intelligent) people don't give a shit about the film.

[Ghost X]

Trailer didn't do much for me. I'm sure it purposefully didn't show anything good though, but I would be wrong in saying that because I did find the footage represented in the gif posted by Dacon exciting. How will Batman's journey come to an end? Ooo, I wonder. I'm hoping tragically. I dislike all the happily ever after storylines.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

Well, it IS a teaser, because they're still relatively early into filming, and this is likely most of the footage that they could compile that's in a workable state. There won't be a proper trailer for a little while still I'd assume.

Just for the sake of speculation,

I've been wondering who that figure is in that background.

Yea, some moron said it was a batsuit.

It's clearly a person with his hands over his face.

 

[Interslicery]

Maybe Gordon?

 

[Geostigma]

Looks alittle chubby though, it could be the lighting but i can swear that looks like a beer belly.

What are the chances of bane breaking ol' batmans back in this movie? It would be an epic reference to an iconic moment but i cant imagine how it could work in the movies context.

 

[Ghost X]

Shows how much i pay attention to detail, i didn't even notice him upon initial observation =p.

 

[Terrafig]

It's Adam West as Waldo.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

It the animated .gif (that's apparently not up anymore), the figure doesn't move at all, and it looks more like a static piece of the background. I've seen speculation that it's just a crew member that hasn't been edited out, but I rather doubt that they'd miss that. :\
