Holy bat-crap! You just knew this movie was too good to be true...they've turned the Batmobile in to the Bat-Tractor. Someone in another forum summed it up best - "I think that's what Batman uses when he has to tow his Bat-Combine and harvest his bat-wheat."

I agree, I don't know what was wrong with the Batmobile from the original Tim Burton movie or designing one like the Batmobile in Batman: The Animated Series.

What I've read about that is that it's (in the film) an experimental miliatary vehicle that becomes the Batmobile. It would make sense, though, that at Batman's beginning he wouldn't have the ultra-personalized custom wheels yet. He's still trying this whole thing on for size... Anyway, I can live with it.

As long as the Batmobile is a not a focal part of the movie, and this movie has a decent script then I can live with it.

There's rumours that it's not Batman's primary wheels in the movie - it's some kind off-road vehicle he uses at one point in the film. Let's hope.

I mean honestly, Batman is one of the greatest 20th century myths...it's not that hard to make a really good, really cool movie out of it.

You'd think so... I have high hopes for this, though. I also hope that good work can be done on the new Superman film. Please please please!

I agree about Batman being a great myth. He is one of the few superheroes that is at least halfway believeable in terms that some of the things he does could be done if you had the right gadgets. That being said, I don't think we've seen a perfect Batman film yet.

On the subject of Batman, does anyone know the name of some good Batman books, and/or comic collections I could order through de library?
