    hmmm...hard to get excited over this one considering only the first 2 Batman movies were any good.

    You know this film is completely unrelated to that run, right?

    That international poster is beautiful. Damned shame about the over-bright and poorly placed title text, it would be a more powerful composition without it.

    I wonder if this particular shot means we're going to get the story of how Bruce discovered the Batcave as a child, falling in from above it. While too big, obviously, the image itself looks pretty much like what I had always imagined of that scene...

    Did you ever read Batman: Year One, Adam? It actually is rather angsty...

    vermilion: I can just imagine the conversation between the poster's designer and the movie exec:

    Exec: "Where's the title?"
    Designer: "There isn't one. This is a 'TEASER'. Besides, there isn't anyone who isn't going to know what movie this is."
    Exec: "Umm, I don't know. We don't want to take any chances. Here, let me fiddle with it."
    Comes back later...
    Exec: "There, much better, don't you think?"
    Designer: "uhhhhh..."

    If I didn't just dream this, I think the trailer that is out there has a short clip of him falling down the hole in the ground!

    The only comic I have more of than AmSpiderman is all the various Batmans. If this picture gives me just a whiff of the Neal Adams Batman then I will be somewhat satisfied!

    I have such high hopes for this flick!!

    Yeah, after my 15 seconds of photoshop work there, I think this is exactly what happened. It looks like it was designed without the title and had that tacked on at the last minute.

    Duke, that would be freaking cool. As awesome as the 1989 Batman was, it really can't be called an origin story. All we got was a brief Joe Chill flashback (who was retconned as the Joker), and nothing else but allusions that Batman has only recently started his crusade. As Jack asked, I want to know where he gets those wonderful toys, and I think this film's handling of that (things like the development of the Batmobile, certainly) will be one of the best things about it. If there is that classic cave-discovery sequence, that will be awesome.

    The cave-discovery sequence was already in Batman and Robin, remember? And it didn't help that one any... tongue.gif Still, I have high hopes for this film just based on Christian Bale. I've always thought he'd be a good Batman.

    Actually, no I don't remember anything from Batman & Robin. My hypnotherapy was completely successful, fortunately.
