And at leats it looks VERY different from previous Batman flicks.
I'm really pumped for this movie.

The teaser is supposed to be out this monday. Maybe that's why it's not working.

I think that's the old teaser, actually. ?-Man's isn't working for me. 
If I recall correctly, James Newton-Howard is co-composing along with Hans Zimmer (IMDB only lists JNH, but as co-composer).

Yeah, I discovered that was the old teaser. Still fun though. I didn't find anything at ? man's link, there was nothing to click on.
Sounds promising score-wise, JNH has done some great stuff lately. I love The Village. Sensitive yet dramatic.

I'm not quite sure how it came about, but I'm suffering from spectacle fatigue lately. These swiftly cut trailers just don't do anything for me anymore. It looks noisy and pretentious, like a trailer for a Bruckheimer production, riddled with cheap marketing quotes.
It looks like they've just packed this stuff together for the trailer, and I'm going to assume the film's a bit better balanced. I'm not sure I really want to see all that training stuff either, and I must say that up until now I haven't been able to warm up to this film. This trailer did not change anything.

It looks fine. Nothing spectacular, all those explosions are a bit disheartening, but it could be good.

What I like is that the film looks more "real world" this time. Previous installments were like circuses with clowns and all.

The first two were amazing because of the production design. They created Gotham city. Certainly, they lost the character somewhere in the scenery, but you can't rag the world Burton created. This one may be a (hopefully) much more character driven movie, but no matter how fantastic the movie might be, the world Burton created is one of the most amazing urban worlds I've seen on film.

It's like sitting with your legs crossed for a few hours.
Yeah it might keep your penis warm, but you'll no longer feel it.

There wasnt enough music in that to hear anything about it really. I was curious how they came to be partnering on this, but JNH and Zimmer are apparently pretty close friends.
Listen to the JNH interview here.
(Also - the first Zimmer clip there is funny - hes awfully honest lol!)

Decent trailer, the usual stuff though.
I hope Neeson will play a better mentor here then he did in TPM.

Not for Batman franchise, it isn't. It's Batman in a more "Earthy" environment.

Neeson did quite alright in TPM, Stefancos. It's Ewan you should complain about. Or do you mean he wasn't a successful mentor, story-wise? Why would you hope that for?

True, it almost looked like Bruce Wayne in Middle Earth.

Neeson was OK, i guess, especially considereing the material he had to work with.
But his performance as Qui-Gon was lightyears removed from his work in Schindlers List.

It's hard for Neeson to top his performance in Schindler's List, although I've read he's pretty good in Kinsey.

There's been enough Joe versions of Batman already, you know, with all the shiny, glitter, goofiness we could take. Play time is finally over now. At last, Batman grew up. Thank you, Nolan.

as usual Alex, what you think and what you know are wider than the atlantic. If WB had quit after Batman, I wouldn't have cared.
Joe, not a big Batman fan, and who has no versions like Alex believes in his small brainstem.
OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!
"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

Equilibrium has made him pretty popular, some friends of mine found out about it and saw it (guys not girls), and think he's all that now, more than Keanu Reeves. They think he kicks butt, and were asking what other movies he was in.
