Then I don't want to hear you say how much you like Tom Hardy or Anne Hathaway, cause you know, it's been flogged to death.

I don't like Tom Hardy

















I love Tom Hardy

 

[Travesty]

I love Tom Hardy

Hehe, as do I. I think he's a great actor. I was just sayin.

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

See, this is what happens when you think a rejuvenation pit is possible—everything old is new again

 

[BatScot]

But it's not even on the parameters of the films anymore. It's taking out a ruler and measuring whose educational sausage is bigger; which is fine but, at least try to stay in the lines of TDKR and Nolan...

I have.

It's a question of believability within the context of Nolan's sense of realism. We can debate back and forth about what 'realism' actually means here or we can cut to the chase and take Nolan and Goyer at their word: They are trying to give the impression of some extraordinary possibility that no matter how improbable could actually happen within a world like the world we the audience live in. And in that real world a person with 4th degree burns, though unlikely, could possibly survive. A person with a crushed spine cannot today take an enzyme injection and walk away regardless of any medical experimentation that might suggest some future possibility. The implausibility of a resurrection pit speaks for itself.

 

[BatScot]

You missed one...

Well, yes... but then someone injected the horse with telomeres.

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

But it's not beyond REASON; these are the basis of his films. It need not be possible yet but, have some foundation in possibility.

The general audience doesn't know all of which you've detailed to us; nor does the general audience give two hooting flunts about it.

At our core levels you and I can agree that in the world today; it's interesting and passable for an enzyme injection to assist in fixing someone's broken back.

That's all he needs.

This is fundamentally different and more 'realistic' than a pit that brings people to life or grants them immortality.

The real question is WHY do it that way when it seems so marginalized and would need such a thorough explanation in the film

Heck, I work with DNA and I'm already checked out of this discussion.

 

[thedarks0ldier]

Sorry for upsetting

Jerk
Welcome to the Hype.

I actually like reading these long ass nerdy debates. Sometimes I'm in them, sometimes I just read them, and sometimes they do get irritating, but overall, I don't see any harm in it.

Nerd on, my friend. Nerd on......

As far as nerd-fights are concerned, I'm entirely disappointed that I have not yet had the occasion for a brutal quote battle. There just hasn't been much to talk about.

When the batsuit drops, though, I suspect it shall be time for me to go to war.

 

[Boom]

Oh yes.

The discussion of the batsuit, whether it's just the TDK suit or a new one, will get quite heated. That much I can guarantee.

I've been meditating and sharpening my blades daily.

For the sake of all humanity, keep it in the Batsuit discussion thread lol



(ETA: I do love a good Nerd Battle though. Harry Potter fadom was full of 1000-word quote-offs back in the day)

 

[Boom]

I will. But since it will be news, expect it to bleed over into this thread.

Not quite; the reason must also have some foundation in probability.

Anyway, I'm not the one professing the plausibility of a Lazarus Pit and I do not find it passable that medical science is at such an advanced stage whereby a crushed spinal column is miraculously restored by an enzyme injection.

Wait, take me with you!

 

[Alex Logan]

OMG! I'm sorry that I ever started this, I never though it would go the distance.

I owe everyone here a huge apology. I'm very sorry for taking this thread in the direction it's going. I WILL NEVER AGAIN TAKE UP THIS DEBATE! I hope we can move on with the topic at hand.

 

[BatScot]

If it hadn't been you it would have been someone else... what is the topic at hand anyway???

 

[protoctista]

If the batsuit is any more grey than the last one, someone will die. I promise you. They will die.

Suicide is painless.

 

[Yurka]

I say it can be immortalized by blowing it the hell up on-screen. Thats the only way I'd love to see it destroyed.

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

I've been hearing that Harry Potter might get released two days earlier(on the 13th rather then the 15th). This means we may get the teaser trailer(if it's with Potter) earlier!

True. Info Hunters... t:

Rumor is they are blowing up Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh in an epic action sequence. From wikipedia:

The arena's owner, the Sports & Exhibition Authority of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County, initially voted in September 2010 to demolish the building in 2011. However, in November 2010, the arena was nominated for historic status at the last minute, and demolition has been delayed. A final vote by the Pittsburgh Historic Review Commission on the nomination was held on March 2, 2011. The result was the HRC declining the arena for historic status.

Penguin!!!!!!!!!

I knew it !!!!!
