They told me that there was nothing out there
The trailer for Batman Begins is live on the Warner Brothers site. The film is directed by the Memento/Insomnia wonderboy Christopher Nolan who also co-wrote the script (along with the Dark City/Blade screenwriter David S. Goyer).
The teaser looks really promising. The whole tone seems much more realistic and I like the voice-over. The shots on that mountain (and when Bale enters that cave) somehow reminded me of Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula when they arrive at Dracula's castle. Probably the voice-over adds alot to this feeling: "and there was something out there in the darkness, something terrifying."
Christian Bale may actually prove to be a good batman (yeah billy bob! :)
