Beowulf 4 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Share Posted June 6, 2007 I'm quite interested to see how the IMAX scenes play out in regular theaters - hopefully Nolan is using it for artistic purposes and not as a gimmick, but considering his past efforts i'm not too worried.

Delorean90 42 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Yeah, I'm not too keen on it. Honestly, if they had just left the Begins suit as it was, I wouldn't mind. We'll see how this goes, though. WB seems to have this habit of releasing the crappiest reveal pictures for their superhero franchises, and then it ends up not looking so bad on film.

SomeNewGuy 0 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I'm not a big fan of it either. The Begins suit was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 75 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 The emblem on this suit might actually be gold, like the utility belt. It's hard to tell from the lighting on the picture, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HPFAN_2 0 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hate it. It needs to be slick and simple, something that doesn't make him look like an extreme sports athlete with a cape. I've always wanted a very gothic and dark Batman movie. I thought this would be it but.....I guess now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 75 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Gothic was done in Burton's films (especially Batman Returns). This film will be dark though, I mean, it's in the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaderbait1 1 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Don't let the suit ruin the film for you. There's no nipples, and at least it maintains the idea of having only practical costumes. The razors shooting at people seems to be a bit gimmicky, but overall the suit does maintain the "super soldier" idea they've been going for starting in Begins.And those other pictures really make me excited for this film. Hopefully there will be some sleeper hits in Winter 2007, because otherwise this year in films is already over in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongBad992648 0 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I like it a lot actually. If Batman really existed, I think that that's what he would look like. If Batman wore a "slick" suit then he would just get shot and die. If he wanted to make it past his first outing, he would have to be wearing armor, and that is what modern full body armor would look like. And I absolutely love the fact that they finally disconnected the head from the shoulders! I can't imagine being a very effective crime fighter without being able to look to your side. I don't understand why someone wouldn't like this...really. It looks absolutely awesome and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delorean90 42 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 The thing is, it's supposed to be reasonable that he could be seen as a supernatural figure by the criminals. That was more acceptable in Begins because of the darkness of the costume. Now, if Batman stays mostly in the shadows, this could work. And, actually, a picture has been leaked of a stunt double, and it's actually a much darker costume than it appeared to be in the reveal pic. But the biggest issue is how mechanical it looks. Yes, that's realistic. But I think there comes a point where you have to say, "You know what--it's not real. What do we need to do for the sake of the character and the story?" Ideally, though, you should be able to reach more of a middle ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Yes the middle ground, were no one is offended, and everyone get's part of what they want.The middle ground is colored beige and tastes like boiled chicken with a white sauce.

I take it the new, standard-on-all-Bat-vehicles novelty is huge tires?As much as I love the Burton-era batmobile (and I love it immensely), I just think the gothic style you mention is a bit gaudy and ostentatious for the tone that Nolan is trying to take. One things for damned sure - Schumacher's involvement with the franchise and memories still lurking about the camp 60's show seemed to have shaped how these new films are turning out.....and that's a good thing.
