more Dark Knight images

hey everyone

once again, sorry for the lack of update. i have a few dental problems at present. three to be precise, and those three teeth will be removed next week.

i imagine it will be painful, but my dentist is ace - he knows a lot about Hannibal Lecter, for a start.

on that note, i will post a review of Hannibal Rising in the near future here, and will with some luck provide an update on my imminent dental work. at present, i am on some awesome painkillers for the dental problems, and still gathering my thoughts on Hannibal Rising.

in the mean time, Warner seem to be rather relaxed in handing out promo pics and advance stuff for The Dark Knight. usually they have rather tight security on projects like this, but they seem to be happy to release images well over a year before the film is due for release.

first up, here is the "new" batsuit. it doesn't seem like a radical departure from the one in Batman Begins to be honest, perhaps just a bit better defined :



and here is the new vehicle for the film - us oldies would call it the "Bat Bike", but Warner have said it is called the "Bat Pod". it doesn't look like there's space for headphones on it, never mind a can of Bat Shark Repellant. anyway, here it is in action :




here is a pic of it on its own, and the text below comes with a ***POSSIBLE SPOILER WARNING***





the best theory i have seen is that the Bat Pod is called that because it is some sort of "escape pod" from the Tumbler, the ace "Batmobile" from Batman Begins. it looks plausible - the position of the cannons would be as the Tumbler, and it would explan the lack of a seat for the Bat Bottom. not much of a spoiler, but ***END OF POSSIBLE SPOILERS***


otherwise, all seems well in this part of the world. i am off to bed with some antibiotics and some painkillers, thank you very much.

be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
