Two Face May Save The Day

I've mentioned previously how silly the whole Batpod motorbike thing is that Batman is supposed to ride in the new The Dark Knight film. How it's totally rediculous and would be almost impossible to ride in the real world (as opposed to the reel world).

Rest easy, these new pics of Harvey Dent (AKA Two Face) look like he might be just cool enough to balance out the crapness we know as the Crap-pod. Thanks Movieweb!

PS: Spoiler Alert!!! Oh, too late? You already saw the pics?... suffer in ya jocks!

Publicity Stunt: Batmobile vs F1 Car

So the British Grand Prix was on at the weekend, The Dark Knight will be out next week and both events feature over the top super cars... what to do, what to do. It seems some PR person or persons thought that having the Batmobile (AKA The Tumbler) drive around a race track with Toyota's F1 racing machine would do the trick and going by the number of cameras seen in the video it seems to be a success.

Unfortunately the Batpod was also there but luckily it's so hard to drive even a highly trained F1 race driver can't get the stupid thing to work.

The video over at Autoblog is pretty boring but the photos look pretty cool. BTW, they don't actually race because you wouldn't want to embarrass Batman as I'm sure the F1 would kick The Tumbler's ass.

Batman's Other Bike

Some people dig Batman's new Bat Pod "motorbike" but others (me included) think it's totally rediculous and cumbersome, even for Batman. Well, fortunately for us it appears, as with the Batmobile, that Bruce Wayne can't be seen riding around on a half-Hummer so he gets to hoon around on this wikkid looking MV Agusta F4 superbike. Thanks for the good news Autoblog.
