So I Am Surrounded By The Dark Knight Rising Filming

Title says all. Waiting to get my student ID and there are blocked off streets and film trucks parked around. Haven't seen anything cool yet. Apparently the Tumbler was here a few days ago.

He has a new tumbler? I thought the last one got fubar-ed, and it was a prototype?

Either way, I CANNOT FREAKING WAIT to see Bane "break the Bat".

I appluad Chris Nolan, for making it know right here and now (as evidenced by the trailer) that this is gonna be it. No more Batman.

And I find his to be the definitive Batman, so it's where it will end with me too. Unlike this new uneeded rehash Spidey that is being foisted down our throats waaaay too soon after the Raimi version (which I dug, except for #3, which pissed me off, save for Venom at the very end)

I might be wrong, but I believe in the first movie you see two tumblers in the garage.

You're surrounded by Batman crews, I'm surrounded by Superman filming - and they're really screwing up the traffic. Feh.

No, you don't see two, but ..
It is implied by Lucius Fox in that scene where Wayne first sees the Tumbler in the Applied Sciences dept. storage area, that there were two built. The concept behind the Tumbler was as bridging vehicle, two Tumblers would jump across a river, each towing a cable. He also said they couldn't get the bridging system to work, but "This baby works just fine." If they couldn't get the bridging system to work, that must mean they had tested it at some point, in order to do that, they would have had TWO Tumblers. Therefore, there must still be one sitting around in WayneTech storage.

No, it's only the end of Nolan's run on Batman. Not the end of Batman.

No doubt, but I made the distinction that Nolan's, to me, was the definitive Batman, and I won't be watching any more re-imaginings, regardless of who is at the helm.
