Another movie with Batman in it, another re-design for the Batmobile. This one looks like something halfway between a car and a tank.
With filming underway for Batman v Superman, director Zack Snyder unveiled the Bat-car that Bruce Wayne will be driving in the upcoming DC Comics/Warner Bros. movie. This doesn’t look anything like the images that went around earlier today, but those shots could be what it looks like after a few super-punches. Or it might be another vehicle altogether. [Note: Many readers are pointing out that this could be the same car from different angles. That could very well be the case.]
Visual re-imaginings for The Dark Knight’s vehicle of choice have happened in nearly every Bat-film and in most of the other non-comic adaptations. This one’s the bulkiest one yet, probably owing to the heavy reference that the movie will be making to Frank Miller’s classic The Dark Knight Returns.

I love love love Batman, and especially The Dark Knight Returns (holy moly, one of the best comics I’ve ever read, and the animated movies were amazing), but this movie is not impressing me. Ben Affleck doesn’t seem old/grizzly enough to be Miller’s Batman.
Time will tell.
Make up can do wonders so who knows. It might be great or it might be a epic fail. Time will tell
I don’t think they’re necessarily aiming for a Batman that’s the same age as Bats in The Dark Knight Returns. The hint seems to be that they want an established Batman who’s been in the game for a while and is a bit older and gruffer, as opposed to Supes who’s extremely new to it all, but not so old that he’s basically at retirement age. I think Affleck can pull off something like that, but I definitely agree that a Batman that was TDKR’s age would be a hard sell.
Or possibly the batman returns graphic novel that the movie is based on? You know, the one where he basically has a tank?
