First pics of the new BATMOBILE!!!!!!





info from Moriarty on "Ain't It Cool News":

This is the vehicle that's described in the Goyer script. This is The Tumbler, built as a bridging vehicle for the military, then never used. Goyer describes it the first time we see it as "a cross between a Lamborghini Countach and a Humvee. Sandy camouflage, stealthangled panelling and variable-angle flaps across the back." It can do a rampless jump at 100 mph. It was built by the Applied Research branch of Wayne Corp., which is how Bruce Wayne stumbles across it. He modifies it a bit, and the result is the thing that's already being so hotly debated by fans. It's a real-world vehicle, practical rather than "cool," and that's a pleasant surprise. And look closely at that glass pod between those front wheels. That comes into play during one of the script's coolest and most original action beats.

I think it's COOl.

Hopefully it will be just ONE of the batmobiles...(the bat must always have an array of cool vehicles at his disposal)..

From the rear it looks like it's doing a poop.

From the front it kinda looks like a fly.

I agree. It does indeed bear a strong resemblance to the Batmobile from Frank Miller's classic. I think the filmakers are trying to show how he develops his technology. As time goes on, the Batmobiles will become more numerous, and more refined. This one is a variation on a discarded military prototype. Cool idea!

From the sound of it, it looks like WB has got the right idea with this one. Going back to the beginning, ignoring all the fuck-ups from the previous films. David Goyer is a Batman fan, and has written a script that is actually based on the comic book.
