Having a minor melt down. Can't see the pics

It would be cool if bruce's Lamborghini changed color to black and the windows tinted to make it the new batmobile

we already know about glass that auto tints and color changing car paint is in the near future , it could even be like that E-INK paper the kindles use it just has to shift between silver and black

 

[camp Blood]

i never said any of that crap just that he could drive he lambo

and yes i see your point about its durability (even though i meant it mostly for quick transport) but all you had to do was state that instead of posting some stupid picture of kobe

and the only reason i support the lambo is because of his lack of bat-mobile, the tumbler getting destroyed really pissed me of in TDK because i frigg'n loved it and it blowing up was almost painful to watch and i don't want the bat-wing to be his only form of transportation and i pretty much hate the bat-pod so i desperately want a new bat-mobile just something more streamlined than the tumbler

if i could choose a new batmobile for tdkr it would be this one from gotham knight

which to me is a combination of

the tumbler

the 89 batmobile

and the swordfish from cowboy bebop

 

[DKDetective]

Might have been addressed earlier, but is the Lambo being loaded onto the tow truck part of the scene or just them setting up/finishing? Thanks for the heads-up in advance.

 

[camp Blood]

not a fan of the bat-pod honestly

i never really warmed up to any at bat-cycle it always seemed to be better suited for robin/nightwing

 

[ChrisB]

The '89 Batmobile is my dream car. I hope I can afford a replica some day.

 

[camp Blood]

not even that , i get the bat-pod is cool and all

its just i don't like how he rides it , the rotating front wheel was kind of dumb as well

i don't know maybe if the pod had a more traditional seating position

 

[ashminator]

im not kissing ring here but ripped made another good point - as of which he did in another post in the bane disscusion, i like the fact that the tumbler looks like nothing else why should batman drive a vehcile that any millionaire could buy and drive? hes a billionaire and hes also bat man he needs uniqueness, i do like the 89mobile too (apart from the blind spot in the middle of the windscreen) i actually like the "escape" pod too but it does leave him more vunerable but looks cooler than mr frosty's..... carrot. I,m a bit gutted we didnt get a bat boat like of james bond the world is notenough. If he had to out boat the police it could of released a jet of smoke or fog - they get lost in the mist and he dives under the water and makes his escape back to another opening to the bat cave. the new flying thing looks intimidating too - still lokks a bitlike a prawn but still like it.

I hate the fact that batman has have to have the symbol plastered over everything. it makes more sence to have an annonimous vehcile that cantbe traced etc.

However i still dont get how he lost the police in bb byturning the lights off???? the spot light on the helicopter would ofstill been on him and the cops in the car would of still been able to follow but still!

also it bugs me how since he has been in bb anddark knight why is his belt not getting more pouches and stuff? why does he not use smoke bombs anymore? and why has he dropped the creature of the night thing, well prefere the bb suit, now he well looks like a dude in a suit

Move the headlights on the Gotham Knights one more to the front, and we've got a winner.

 

[Visceral]

what book was bale carrying around?

 

[ashminator]

see above ripped

 

[Octoberist]

To ash, I do agree that Nolan's Batman doesn't use the batarangs and smoke bombs as much as he should.

 

[camp Blood]

this would would have been a cool batcycle, i would have used this or something similar to this

 

[Octoberist]

The Batpod is fine since t was meant to be an escape pod anyway.

 

[ashminator]

to camp - it made it more manoverable in tight spaces and turned the whole thing back around on itself, the wheels probably are ridiculous but i still think they look ace and they have to be that big to fit the engine inside the wheel hub.

to oct, yes exactly why spend all that time making loads of them like shuriken when he has only ever used them to smash a light bulb or two? and they always make point of showing him pick them up before he leaves or show them putting them away in there case to never use them? which goes for the new gauntlets again to never use them apart from once and didnt even imbed or leave a mark on jokers face?. If your gonna tease us with bat gadgets then use them please!

 

[kvz5]

what book was bale carrying around?

The one he's carrying here? I was a bit curious as well.

 

[Travesty]

not a fan of the bat-pod honestly

i never really warmed up to any at bat-cycle it always seemed to be better suited for robin/nightwing

I didn't like it all that much, too. I really hated how it sounded like a golf cart. I prefer Batman in a loud car, rippin through the streets.

 

[camp Blood]

thats what i like about the dodge tomahawk , it has a V10 viper engine

 

[ashminator]

and the grapple gun and glider wings and rooftops

 

[ashminator]

and batarangs and smoke bombs but he never uses them as much as he should

i think the pod wasnt meant as a permanent vehcile but bruce improvisedwith it to his advantage and used it for more than its pottensial.

 

[Octoberist]

and the grapple gun and glider wings and rooftops

I love how the glide wings are being popularized by the Arkham games and Nolan's films. now they're in the comics!

 

[ashminator]

i wonder if the new vehcile will have a drop pod or other kind of mini vehicle of some kind or even a zip line to move fromsky to building and into the face of a thug with his fists?
