The Dark Knight
All I can say is that this will be EPIC! I'm going to the midnight showing with like four other people so expectations are high. Your thoughts?

Re: The Dark Knight
I'm not fond of the look of the new batsuit.
Reference: and It looks like plastic armor. What the ****? Also, I don't see why they felt it was necessary to switch the bat logo into the film's logo AND make it smaller. The only small insignia which can work well is the yellow eclipse one, such as how it appeared in the Tim Burton films. That aside, I'm sure the film will be excellent. I'll just have to imagine a different costume in my own mind... sort of like Spider-man 3.

Re: The Dark Knight
I think the change the suit in the film for the same reason they did in the movie -
The old one was freakin' cumbersome. This one is more light weight, etc.

Re: The Dark Knight
They can increase mobility of the actual suit without making the suit look like modular plastic armor. The major issue I'm aware of that was a problem was mobility of the head-- making the suit be modular armor on the torso and limbs doesn't do that. That aside, what comes across on film is more important. I don't want a batsuit that functions better in reality but looks dumb on film. I'd rather have a suit which looks fine on film, even if the reality of it is technically ineffective.
I like the simplistic take on it. If they could do a grey body suit with a black bat on his chest, and make it look reasonable and realistic, I would be happy as a clam. The suit in 1989's Batman film was great too: simple black with the yellow eclipse logo.

Re: The Dark Knight
That's true. But Christian Bale complained about how much it sucked to be in the Batsuit for extended periods and how often he would get heatstroke or somesuch.

Re: The Dark Knight
In the movie they clarify how he gets a new batsuit.
Going to the drive-in tonight for Get Smart and then the midnight showing of The Dark Knight. |

Also, I don't know about you guys, but it seems like he's smaller in the new suit. I don't know about you guys, but I like my Batman to be hulking and massive.

Re: The Dark Knight
Hulking and Massive = bad for sneaky ownage. Looking cool can only cover impracticality so far.

Re: The Dark Knight
