Robert Pattinson’s Batmobile will be a muscle car not a tank...

I realize the tank may make more sense but I definitely prefer a muscle car.

Maybe customize a '69 Charger



Or maybe a 770 Equus Bass

69 Dodge Charger 440 HP really cooked and is a sweet machine, to me it looks more like something the Green Hornet would drive and wasn't this the year make and model for the General Lee or was it the 68 Charger?

I'm looking forward to this, and I'm fine seeing Pattinson as a young batman. Though weird to have Serkis in it and not be penquin. I assume they are doing emperor penquin for Farrell. To be honest, I was not a fan of the Nolan trilogy of bat films, even though doing a "batman in the real world" approach was a cool idea, I like my comic book movies to be as escapist fantasy as possible.

Yeah, I immediately thought of Emperor Penguin, too. I'm disgruntled.

The one man alive who's perfect for the role--Toby Huss--will likely never get a chance to play the classic character.

Toby Huss is a great actor... I loved him in "Halt and Catch Fire"... but I would never have thought of him for Penguin. For isntance, his build does not seem very Pengy-like. What made you lock in on him as the "perfect" choice?

Jones. Toby Jones. Jeez, I'm losing it lol.

Makes way more sense. Waugh waugh!

^Quite like the Batmobile of the '70s "penthouse/downtown Batcave" era.

One of my favorite batmobiles!

As to the muscle car look, I always thought the first iteration batmobile on the animated The Batman had a muscle car vibe to it more than most typical batmobile designs:

That is too funny. Jones would be an excellent Penguin. As for Toby Huss, I'll always think of him as a different hero- Artie, the strongest man... in the world!!

I think Robert Pattinson will be a GREAT BATMAN. I'm very much looking to this movie, but I still don't understand changing Jim Gordon into a black Dude...especially when you alreay have great character like Luis Fox to fill the diversity quota. To me Gary Oldman was "spot on" casting as Gordon...it's a shame he couldn't come back.

Anyway, back to the car. I'd like to see a Neal Adams style 1960 Corvette Batmobile.
