At the end of the new trailer, why the fuck did they show

Spoiler

Coming Soon

and not the actual

Spoiler

release date

. Its like they havent yet decided

Spoiler

when they are going to release

the movie yet.

 

[DMczaf]

Someone made this at SHH, you can see that the color timing was finished on the latest TV spot.

 

[Lonestar]

I assume they threw it in because it looked cool. Or perhaps an easier way for it to make a turn tighter (what with having oversized wheels).

If SHH does gif's like that, I imagine someone's putting together all of the footage, trying to figure out what's going on.

International purposes?

Not sure.

One month!

I always wondered: why and how does the wheel spin like that? It can also be seen in TDK.

It's been bugging me for years too. It looks damned cool, but that is so damned impossible.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Just assume the guns are indestructible. That's reasonable, RIGHT

Whoah I always saw this as an empty and half-destroyed Batpod coming to a stop after being like, blown up or something. No idea she was still riding it.

I can roll with the spinning tires (get it?), but I'll never buy the wall flip turnaround. Should have just done something like that Catwoman gif in the Dark Knight street showdown.

Wall flip is possible, very possible. Tires spinning like that? My mind is getting blown there.

I assume it is there as a "handbrake" or tight brakes where spinning tires will slow down the bike drastically.

What I never bought was that one RPG would have been so catastrophic to the tumbler.

Well, since the "seat" of the bike is more or less a quasi front axle, I imagine both wheels can do whatever they want.

I rewatch this, and still have a hard time wrapping my brain around it.

An animator who worked on it put up his early animation test of it.

http://vimeo.com/2758649

This last animation is of something the director was keen to see work visually. He wanted the bike to drive up a wall, then it's body to twist round to land, ready to drive off in the opposite direction. This idea made it into the film.

I enjoyed making these animations, and it was also a rare opportunity for me to do the rigging.

In the final version the Batpod's movement was toned down a lot from these initial tests. It looks much stiffer than how I envisioned it, which makes sense as it matches more closely up to the practical Batpod.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

I'm still waiting for the Mythbusters to test whether that truck could actually flip like that with just cable.

 

[shira]

Well it is designed for flight over short distances. Maybe it's supposed to be titanium as opposed to armor. The wheels and the weight do most of the "tumbling"

 

[rekameohs]

I'm the opposite. The wall flip seems doable with the rotatable midsection of the Batpod, but I don't see how weapons that jut out the side of a tire make for a smooth ride sideways.

Rewatching the Nokia trailer, the music... the fricking wailing siren sound in the background makes me feel incredibly uneasy throughout the whole thing. Throw the actual footage and chanting on it, and I actually feel bad and depressed after it's finished.

Really worried for the Bat and the Cat.

I like it, but it maybe be a bit too subtle and vague for many.

I think they'll be okay.

If only Nolan would follow the fanart.

How's he going to explain to Lucius he wants a new suit to have sex with Catwoman with?

He'll just cut a hole in his suit. If anyone asks, he'll just say he was in a catfight.

That it's for spelunking, which would be true.

can anyone tell me where's the music from trailer 4?

That was honestly the opposite of subtle and vague. Still pretty cool though.

Hipsterish? What, hipster wasn't vague enough?

I hope I'm Thomas Wayne.

Sorry MARTHA.

LOLOL, happened to catch Kimmel's pre NBA thing, and they had a skit of Gary Oldman (Still looking like Gordon), and it was great. "Actors against Actor Athletes"

Heh, someone made a topic on this, got it on Youtube as well.

How is NONE of you mentioning that FUCKING haunting music (0:23-1:00) as the logos roll in that new trailer? What instrument is that?! Holy shit does that give me chills.

What fucking track is that?! DMczaf, you know?

It was used in the MTV trailer.
Track is Gotham's Reckoning. Actually I have no idea if that's the right track.

Alright Bat-Gaf, my favourite thread on here and it's now 30 days since the film will be with us, time to actually bale out. It's been one helluva ride, see you on July 21st!

 

[DMczaf]

Seems some critics had a screening recently.

I don't want to be around when that happens.
