It's really finally happening, isn't it? First the Bat Signal hyped up the Woolworth Building, now the Batmobile is in town for the The Dark Knight world premiere tonight. The full-size toy was spotted outside the AMC Loews Lincoln Square theater – the one with the IMAX – earlier today. Our correspondent tells us that "handlers were in the process of covering it because people taking pictures wouldn't stop photographing it. When people asked why, the handlers said: 'Because you guys won't listen!'" Fools – just try and stop us from giving your movie more free publicity!




Love how the NYPD put it in a protest pen. Welcome to New York "Dark Knight," you're ass is ours.
When you put something eyecatching out on public display, what do you expect people to do? Unless people were going up to it, touching and climbing, let them take their pictures.
The picture is quite interesting only because I once knew a girl from the Bronx with the last name of Mazzella (take a look at the truck in the background). I can't remember her first name, but her brother worked for the TA.
Production assistants/whatever are so fucking stupid. Did they really think people wouldn't take pictures of it? Or that they could tell people to stop?
what the hell did they expect people to do when they saw it??
Well, that's why they're PA's and not actually making their own films...
I watched Batman Begins and can't remember a single thing about it. It made about as much of an impression as Batman Returns, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. That is the ugliest Batmobile ever and you couldn't pay me to take pictures of it.
Weird, since they had no problems with people taking pictures of the car in Niagara Falls.
Those are the same PAs who try to stop people from walking down the street or in Central Park as if they have a legal right to do it, because, you know, they're working on Gossip Girl or something - oh wait, they're wearing a baseball cap and have a walkie talkie, I guess they're Spielberg! Cool car/prop though and check out this fun little free Dark Knight video game, you're on a motorcycle shooting at the Joker's henchmen in a van ahead of you. I thought I was doing ok but came in at something like 647th place - oy
