Batmobile!

This is the Batmobile. From Batman Begins. Up close.

This picture was taken in one of the back lots of the Warner Bro studio in LA. This place houses all the "kewl" vehicles used in recent Warner movies. Like, the futurustic car from Minority Report, the flying car from Harry Potter 2, the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo, Batmobile from Batman Forever and this awesome hunk of a car in the picture.

On this studio tour, we were accompanied by two dudes who were totally crazy about Batman ... or Batman movies. The whole time (around 4 hours) they were just going on and on and on about Batman (our guide was pissed off by the end). And the only things they were interested in the whole thousand acre complex were the things that had to do something with ... yup, Batman.

BTW, I am also a Batman fan ... but the movies somehow don't match up to the books (or comics, or graphic novels). Still, looking forward to The Dark Knight:
