New "Batmobile" pictures

Recommended Posts

Guest El Satanico

Unlike the other pictures we've seen, these are in full daylight and you actually see the details.

That's one hell of a vehicle, and I like it better than the penis envy Batmobiles from Burton/Shumacher. Unlike the Burton/Shumacher incarnations, this one can actually do things and not look like a plastic toy being pulled along.

"Doc Brown, I'm about to pimp your ride."

FUCKING HILARIOUS.

 

Although, Christian Bale would gut you and your mother for talking smack about his ride.

What the hell is that thing?

How can you be sneaky driving something like that?

 

It looks like something that was made on Junkyard Wars.

Thats why I like it. It is conceiveable that someone made that from scratch themselves. The old batmobile...hell, all the construction under wayne manor...just a LITTLE far fetched. I think the whole thing about Batman is that it is was a conceiveable comic. I mean, some guy could put on a mask and be a vigilante.

That's like, the ugliest thing I've ever seen. I can't believe people actually approve of this as the Batmobile. Why did they have to modify it so far from the original again?

What in gods name is that? What is wrong with the batmobile in comic books?

That looks like something from Mad Max.

Oh no.

 

This is going to turn into another X-Men discussion.

 

I can feel it.

Complaining about uniforms is one thing.

 

I don't mind the car though. As Ripper said, it looks homemade. Just can't see him sneaking up on anyone driving that thing.

I can't see him sneaking up on anyone in any of his vehicles, from any medium.

No it's just that it looks absurd. I mean seriously that looks nothing like the batmobil from the comics, show, movies, anything. It doesn't look like anything that Batman would drive.

Hell it looks like a go-cart with armor plating.

Sorry if my comic book knowledge is limited, but isn't the Batmobile more of a pursuit vehicle than one for stealth?

Exactly. And this is taking place during Batman's first years, of course something like the Batmobile is going to be imperfect the first time out, not to mention this just looks ready to handle any type of combat situation.

 

Apart from the silver, and let's face it, we're likely NEVER going to see it during the day in the movie anyway, that doesn't matter much.

 

It makes sense.

So they degrade the suit, but upgrade the car?

 

Interesting...

 

But the car looks like crap and I'm not even a comic book geek. It looks like something out of a Vin Diesel movie.

This sort of reminds me of the Batmobile in DKR.

It's inspired by the "Bat-Tank" from that.

It's painted black, it just looks silvery in the daylight for whatever reason. It's camo painted when Bruce "borrows" it from Wayne industries, but he paints it black for his use.

Wrong! Both the suit and car are Military prototypes built by Wayne Industries.

Wait, they didn't degrade the suit? I thought it was going to be like the first Batman, not the 7th one.

Well it may not be as refined as later suits, but I wouldn't call it a downgrade.

The military isn't worried about how something looks. For a rookie Batman, a built for the military urban assault vehicle makes more sense than some ego stroking machine. After he gets some experience and sees what he's up against, then he can worry about style.

i like it, fits well with the whole "beginning" story.

Also it looks pretty cool in movement, from the pics it looks like this tank but it's actually pretty fast and looked great in teh footage that was online a few months a go.

This vehicle is not even close to a Mad Max vehicle, but perhaps Aliens. Mad Max had vehicles pieced together with stuff from other junked or deserted vehicles...kinda like Oklahoma and West Virginia.

 

In the comics, the "Batmobile" started out as basically a Lincoln with some armor. There's a website somewhere that traces the evolution of the comic "Batmobile".

There was a video clip of that Batmobile actually in motion a while back, driving down streets (some excited teens shot it on a Handycam), it was crazy, sounded like a jet engine, but very cool. The still shots dont do it justice.

I remember in the comics the Batmobile being the Batmobile right off the bat. It wasn't Mad Max's Go-Cart.

Maybe someone should read Dark Knight Returns.
