Hmmm. Okay, maybe it's just that the initial excitement has worn off, but I'm starting to worry about this movie now. New production stills are leaking out every day (and the Joker is still dropping all sorts of clues and hints over at WhySoSerious.com but we're still going to have to wait till July to see the movie - isn't it a little soon for the hype machine to be cranked up to this pitch?

And, more importantly, is it just me or is it all starting to look a little bit... rubbish?

This picture of Batman riding some kind of bizarre Lego bike just gives me Schumacher flashbacks. It looks like an action figure, honestly.

Maybe it's for the best that my expectations are being lowered, because otherwise by the time The Dark Knight was actually released it would have no option but to be disappointing. At the same time, though, I can't help feeling a bit disappointed right now. Those introductory few minutes looked so completely awesome that looking at this - that is totally a child's trike, just scaled up and painted black - makes me feel sad.
