Hey, kids! It's the Batmobile!





I do hope Bruce adds to it.

What the hell is that... it looks slow, and designed for swampland. If it was built for speed the wheels would be flatter at least.

Oh, that thing was in Armageddon right? It saved the world by flying from asteroid to asteroid. That movie was so realistic I wet myself.

Looks like a cross between Batman (1989) batmobile and the tank from Dark Knight Returns. Pretty cool way to incorparate both ideas.

Who prefers the FAKE "Batman Begins" Batmobile over that one?

That's a pretty sweet ride there, the FAKE one, though I do prefer the old '52 Lincoln Batmobile.

I like the real one. It's more realistic to me, since he could just order regular tank stuff to build it and wouldn't need Waynetech super parts. I know, Bruce Wayne could afford anything, but if he ordered all this stuff for a super duper car that he never used on anything he rides in public, and Batman all of a sudden shows up with a supercar, you'd think at least a few people would be suspicious. And if he stole it from Waynetech (can you steal from yourself?), well, everyone would think Batman is a criminal then, and he wouldn't get help from Gordon, so he burned a bridge there as well.

This way, he could get parts from other companies and none would be the wiser as to his real purpose.

Actually in the comics Batman has someone make the rides for him. I think the current maker is the Toymaker... if you read the Batman/Superman book.

It was Harold orginally, but he's dead now. And he never met Harold until a few years into his career, so he won't have him in this movie (if it's faithful in that regard) and Bruce/Alfred will have to do it.

And, lets not forget, this is a year one type movie, so this could be his first attempt at a car, before coming up with the sleeker design.

Also, I like that this one looks like something a normal guy would build if he was going to fight crime. More like a vehicle and less like a prop, if that makes sense. Would you build a flashy car or an armored tank if you were taking on criminals all night?

No, seriously, if you look at it in that regard, he might as well not be Batman or wear a costume. Besides, the original Batman was sort of a year one ordeal. He was generally unknown; and he still had all the flashy bat gear. Anyway, I read that it was originally a military vehicle that Wayne Enterprises was workin' on and he decided to adopt it as his vehicle. I hope he evenatually fixes it up with the bat motif.
