Line 5:
** The CEO who takes over Wayne Enterprises after Thomas & Martha's deaths can fall victim to this. Is he a [[Jerkass]] [[Regent for Life]] for refusing to hand the company over to Bruce; or is he justified in not handing the company over to Bruce, as young Master Wayne was pronounced dead ''several years ago'' and has no experience in the business world? Is he a [[Jerkass]] for firing Lucius Fox, or is he simply cutting costs by ditching a division that's losing them money?
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: "Yeah that's a interesting line of thought Lieutenant Gordan is having with Batman...hmm okay there's been a robbery...oh, [[The Joker|that's an interesting turn of events.]]"
** As the trope entry reminds us, a lot of people were leery about [[WTH?What the Hell, Casting Agency?|the casting of]] [[Heath Ledger]] as the Joker until they saw clips of his performance.
** Also, the idea of a Batman ''anime'' made some fans leery, until the name ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Kevin Conroy]]'' showed up.
** The series essentially started with this. After the [[Joel Schumacher]] films, another Batman film (proper origin story or not) wasn't something anyone was getting terribly excited about. Until it was announced that it would be from the same [[Christopher Nolan|director]] as ''[[Memento]]'' and starring [[American Psycho|Patrick Bateman]] that fans had any hope that it would be worth getting excited about.
Line 142:
* [[The Woobie]]: Poor Bruce Wayne, and poor [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|Harvey Dent.]]
** Also Rachel Dawes in the second movie. Of course, [[Maggie Gyllenhaal|the actress]] is good at playing the woobie, so it probably isn't deliberate.
* [[WTH?What the Hell, Casting Agency?]]: Many were leery about casting Heath Ledger as [[The Joker]]. As everyone knows by now, he proved them all wrong.
** And with ''Rises'', Anne Hathaway as Catwoman and Tom Hardy as Bane.
