I'm just glad they picked: Christian Bale to play Bruce Wayne. if you haven't seen him in Equilibrium (2002), you need to.

a great sci-fi movie. maybe what matrix 2 & 3 should have been.
as far as the batmobile goes, it is a nice change. he needs a war machine, not a glorified supercar. plus, with the director of "Memento" at the helm, it should be a dark & gritty movie. looking forward to it. here's hoping they don't kill the franchise for good. and let's hope it's not like Catwoman.
