Speculation rather than tropes. Yes, I agree that it\'s likely, but there\'s nothing definite we can use yet.


* {{Gorn}}: [[SignatureStyle All but guaranteed.]]



* NWordPrivileges: Tarantino will, in all likelihood, never have a better opportunity or excuse to invoke this trope (even if it's mostly used from a derogatory standpoint). Best summed up by one YouTube comment:
--> '''3Storms:''' Will Tarantino use the word "nigger" in this movie? [[SarcasmMode Nah. He'd never do that.]]



* RefugeInAudacity: Given that Tarantino's not shying away from the grittier aspects of slavery, this trope will likely be in full effect.

[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rC8VJ9aeB_g A trailer for the film was released on June 6th.]]

The film will be released on Christmas Day 2012. [[SarcasmMode You know, a happy holiday film the whole family can enjoy.]]

* CastingGag: Franco Nero, who plays Amerigo Vassepi in the film, was the title character in the 1966 spaghetti western ''Django'' from which Tarantino adapted the title of this film.
* CreatorCameo: With Tarantino it's not if but ''when.''

--> '''3Storms:''' Will Tarantino use the word "nigger" in this movie? [[SarcasmMode Nah. He'd never do that.]]
* PoliticallyCorrectHistory: Will be averted '''hard''' by all accounts.
* RapeAsDrama: It's been said that Broomhilda, Django's wife, will suffer this throughout the film - not that surprising given the era and subject matter discussed.
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic: The trailer has a disturbingly beautiful shot of blood spray over a field of cotton. While at face value it's merely Django's victim having their brain/chest/other bits blown to pieces, on a deeper level it makes an effective metaphor for the moral cost of slavery.
