Dark Horizons obtains a closer look at the new Batman suit and it looks like…well, a rubber suit. But as long as Bats doesn’t spend too much time in this kind of lighting, he should be alright. Update: The teaser is now online, and it matches to a tee the description here. Nice work.

I shall become a Bat…
Also in fanboy news (there’ll be a lot this week, what with Comicon,) AICN obtains a description of the Batman Begins teaser. Hope it looks as good as it reads.
Wayneing in the Wings.
From the spider to the bat, the official Batman Begins website puts up first looks at Morgan Freeman, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, and Liam Neeson. All pretty solid, but I’m still angling to see the Scarecrow.
Prince of Gotham, King of the World.
In the movie bin, some some news of a Batman Begins teaser (and a first look at Liam Neeson), and James Cameron speaks about his top-secret 3D Sci-Fi project, now starring Brian Cox. If Cameron is really serious about resurrecting 80’s action film stars, one of his favorites, Michael Biehn, is probably waiting by the phone…
Mad as a Batter.
Newsweek visits the set of Batman Begins, and offers up a few new pictures of the Caped Crusader, including one of a pre-Scarecrow Cillian Murphy getting a severe talking-to from the Long-Eared one. ‘Bout time we saw the villains, no?
Horse of a Different Color.
Fanboys, fangirls, and toy collectors: Just when you think you’ve seen it all, here come the DeMatteis and Maguire-era Justice League My Little Ponies. Shouldn’t everyone have a Martian Ponyhunter lying around? (By way of Do You Feel Loved?)
Eyes, Spies, Tom, and Cat.
It’s Friday, and at the end of a grim-visaged week, the world needs more trailers. In the bin today, we’ve got a new view of The Chronicles of Riddick, Vin Diesel and David Twohy’s follow-up to Pitch Black (sadly, it still looks like a very expensive Sci-Fi Channel original movie), evil Tom Cruise in Michael Mann’s Collateral (The LA gunplay of Heat meets the visual style of The Insider), the first look at The Bourne Supremacy (Identity was a nice surprise, although this one seems very similar), and the teaser for Halle Berry’s embarrassing-looking Catwoman (The early buzz has been awful, and this blah clip won’t change it.)
Man-Bat Stalks Gotham.
The official Batman Begins site and Entertainment Weekly give us our first look at the new Dark Knight. Hmm…this seems ok. I’d prefer longer ears and less of a hockey-pad feel to his shoulders and knees, but it’s hard to say anything more until we see Bats move around.
(Bat)Man about Town.
Ok, it’s just Christian Bale in a suit. Still, if you suspend belief, you’ve got the first look at Batman Begins Bruce Wayne here. In related news, the official site, in an attempt to keep the fanboy buzz happy, put up a few shots of the new Batmobile online last week. Hmm…it looks like a cross between a monster truck and the troop transport in Aliens.
In the Batroom.
Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins gets even more star-laden with the additions of Tom Wilkinson and Rutger Hauer to Gotham City. Apparently, Wilkinson’s a crime lord, while Hauer’s scheduled to attempt a hostile takeover of Wayne Enterprises. Are we going to have enough screen time for all these folks?
