No, this will in no way redeem the George Clooney Batman.

It should be forgotten and never mentioned again.

But this new one looks preetty cool. [Cool]

Yeah that was definitely a disgrace to the awesomeness of Batman.

There is no spoon...

There is no <<unnamable movie>>

If we wish hard enough, we can change reality... [Wink]

Vehicle of stealth, it appears not to be anymore... vehicle of off-roadiness, perhaps.

I think it looks interesting.

As for the bat mobile, they wanted to build a realistic bat mobile...something that would do what they say it can do so they got military advisers and said what they wanted it to do and built what they were told. I kind of like it...it seems more gritty that the typical Hollywood versions. It also looks more like what batman would have built in his early years.

Meh! Batman wouldn't have built it. He makes Alfred do all his dirty work for him.

But but but Batman's not supposed to be "realistic" he's supposed to be cool and stealthy. A batmobile with huge wheels isn't stealthy it's... something else. Although it is very superhero-ie.

Well, personally, I loved BATMAN & ROBIN (the one with George Clooney and Ah-nold). [Razz]

Hmm, I have yet to decide on the batmobile. However, I am putting an unbelievable amount of faith in this movie.

The biggest thing I'm excited about is that the Scarecrow's in it! The first time in the history of live-action Batman movies!

They're filmining it in Chicago which should be interesting and give it a different feel.

I think George Clooney would have made a hell of a Batman if he'd had a director who knew what the character was about. If he'd played him dark, mysterious, a bit alarming even to people who know him...

I agree, Clooney could have been fine. It wasn't his fault. The entire movie was horrible.

I thought "they that shall not be named" as the ultimate DC-cralidgous Bat-related experience was this years "Cat..."astrophy of a movie.

Dan, I have no idea what you are talking about.

And I'm trying very hard to keep it that way. [Wink]
