Nice, too bad the batmobile isn't slightly different

It looks slightly different to me... Maybe it's just the angle.

Still, would be cool to see a new batmobile in this. I love the tumbler, though.

I was hoping the Batmobile would look different this time around. I still think that the Tumbler is too bulky for Batman.

Not the best batmobile but still in my top 5. The batmobile from the Hush storyline is probally my fav as of now.

Good to see the Tumbler and Batpod, I want to see redesigns though.

How will the batmobile and batpod both coincide in TDKR?

The batpod was only utilized obviously because the tumbler was destroyed...

Hopefully it's just further set dressing for the reconstructed batcave (if it's even featured with Batman being an outlaw)

I was always of the opinion the "tumbler" was not a batmobile but just his first vehicle. I was hoping he was going to get a proper batmobile this movie. Ohh well I will most likely still love the movie.

I love how they put green tape over the "GOTHAM" in Gotham Police Department, but left the Tumbler open for the world to see haha.

Batman TAS has the nicest, and in my opinion most iconic of the Batmobiles. You've gotta admit though, for a real world, PRACTICLE Batmobile, everything about the Tumbler makes perfect sense. It's certainly MEANER looking than anything from the comics.

brickarts295 - 7/13/2011, 10:39 PM
maybe this one will be destroyed and well get a new one during the movie

Not that I'm complaining because we don't even know what he is using these for in the film yet, but I would very much like to see a realistic looking take on the comic Batmobile.

Something like this..



We all know Bruce likes his Lambo's

Hardshaw - 7/13/2011, 10:41 PM
The question is will they kill off Batman or will he pass on the role to a replacement by the movies end?

@alucard365

Not sure if he will have, but maybe they'll explain that he can flight ( crash landing)

THE TUMBLER....IS.....BACK!!! (he says in a deep Arnold S. voice)

Um where's the batpod?? I don't see it...
NeoBaggins
NeoBaggins - 7/13/2011, 10:53 PM
It's probably exactly the same but, some how it looks sleaker, smaller. Even blacker lol. Had crazy fanfic dreams of a modified Lambo or somethin, but the tumbler is always welcomed- even more so because of the RISES theme. Lazy ass title, but good theme. Wayne Mannor, the BatCave, the Batmobile. All back again.
thewolfx
thewolfx - 7/13/2011, 10:56 PM
yup .. still ugly ass hell like the first 2 movies.

@patriautism

damn i wish nolan put that car in instead
cable23
cable23 - 7/13/2011, 10:56 PM
@patriautism The 2012 lamborguini is the one car Ive been telling my friends could be the new Batmobile. Great minds think alike.
luffycapri
luffycapri - 7/13/2011, 11:08 PM
cool
luffycapri
luffycapri - 7/13/2011, 11:08 PM
cool
Bluestreak
Bluestreak - 7/13/2011, 11:10 PM
The tumbler is the best batmobile.
A lambourguini? You're kidding right? An assault vehicle is far more useful to the Batman in "real life" than a racing car.

Naturally there would have been another Tumbler. In BB Lucius Fox told Wayne that it took two tumblers to jump over a river for the bridge to be installed. Thank God Nolan didn't opt for some souped up hot rod to be the new Batmobile. Consistency is a good thing. No need to Schumacherize everything.

awesome, glad they didnt change it, that thing is beast
patriautism
patriautism - 7/13/2011, 11:13 PM
Hell yeah. Throw a rocket engine on the back, and some cool toys on it, and it would own.
Don't get me wrong I am a fan of the Tumbler, but what they don't tell you in the movie is, it doesn't turn very well in real life.
ShadesAtKnight
ShadesAtKnight - 7/13/2011, 11:16 PM
@kevshardlemonade - It's under that blue cover, behind the Tumbler.
patriautism
patriautism - 7/13/2011, 11:20 PM
@Bluestrak yeah! A Lamborghini? can be reinforced with armor plating just like every other car. Is it immune to improvement or something? If I were Batman I would want something that can actually turn..

DCfan89 - 7/13/2011, 11:25 PM
I think they will just be pieces sitting around in the new batcave. At least I hope. I wanna see some new vehicles.
