The Art of The Batman

Product Information

As you might expect, The Art of The Batman devotes an entire chapter to the new Batmobile. As imposing as this armored-up muscle car is, it’s also designed to be just grounded enough that Batman can drive around Gotham without attracting too much attention. Unless he wants to. Selected items are only available for delivery via the Royal Mail 48® service and other items are available for delivery using this service for a charge. The book details every aspect of the movie, looking at his bat suit, which has always defined him in a way. His car, the famed Batmobile, is also explained in detail, and in the movie Bruce Wayne is the one who builds the ultimate crime fighting car.

poi ti capita tra le mani QUESTO libro e capisci che se anche fosse costato il doppio probabilmente avresti comunque finito per dargli lo stesso i soldi. However, the artwork 🖼 is very impressive as it explores iconic characters, locations, gadgets and set pieces from the film and from the Batman comic books. The faded glory of the sweeping vistas of Gotham City 🌃 explored in the book is stunning, combining “realism” with just enough fantasy to make this new Gotham fascinating, rather than outright terrifying.

Batman isn’t the only character who relies on real-world military surplus gear to fill out his arsenal in the movie. That’s how Paul Dano’s Riddler - a low-level accountant with few resources of his own - makes his ambitious campaign of terror possible.

However, production designer James Chinlund reveals that John Turturro’s Falcone was influenced by another real-world figure. Falcone and his base of operations in the Tricorner Bridge were inspired by Robert Moses, who ran New York City’s corruption-plagued Triborough Commission and who reportedly set up shop directly beneath a city toll plaza. The Penguin’s Godfather Connection The first trailer for The Batman made a strong impression thanks to its use of a remixed version of Nirvana’s “Something in the Way,” a tune that shows up in the final film as well. The Batman paints a very different picture of iconic Gotham crime lord Carmine Falcone. By the end of the film, we learn Falcone rose to power by colluding with the GCPD and orchestrating the arrest of Sal Maroni. That basically makes him the Whitey Bulger of the DC Universe.

Reeves confirms that Lee Bermejo’s artwork in graphic novels like Joker and Batman: Damned was a huge source of inspiration for Robert Pattinson’s tactical suit. Costume designer Glyn Dillon also reveals that the Batsuit was inspired by two very practical items - a Russian pressure suit and equestrian vests. The Batsuit may look bulky, but there’s a flexible core underneath all that armor. Batman’s Hidden Weapons Pattinson’s new Batsuit is crammed full of wonderful toys, only some of which he actually unleashes during the course of the movie. The Art of The Batman gives us a much better look at the inner workings of the Batsuit and its hidden gadgets, including the spring-loaded grapple gun that Dillon reveals was directly inspired by Robert De Niro’s character in Taxi Driver. This book is also pretty light on content, just like The Dark Knight: Featuring Production Art and Full Shooting Script. It explains very little on the production of the movie. You might probably even get more information on Wikipedia. The Batman’s version of Gotham City is a decaying metropolis that draws in elements of New York City, Pittsburgh and Chicago as well as UK cities like London and Liverpool. Much of the Gotham landscape we see in the film was created through special effects, which forced Reeves to think outside the box when it came to building sets and making Gotham feel like a real, tangible place. For Field, both director Matt Reeves and producer Dylan Clark were brilliant collaborators, and he found them very generous in talking him through their experiences of making the film with honesty and passion.

A few weeks on the from the release of the Matt Reeves directed The Batman, a tie-in coffee table-style book celebrating the design of the film comes from author James Field. The Art of the Batman is not merely a collection of photos and concept art, but a thorough look at the work from conception to realisation. However, while most of the reading in the book is incredibly insightful, especially the essays (Falcone/Penguin and LED Volume being standouts) and interviews (of all of the actors, Kravitz was my favorite, she provided incredibly thoughtful answers), there are some things that made me go “Why even include that?”Please be aware that the delivery time frame may vary according to the area of delivery - the approximate delivery time is usually between 1-2 business days. The cinematography for the movie was great. The composition was amazing. But there are too few reference paintings included. The highlight of the Vengeance chapter (apart from the Batsuit) is discussion of Wayne Tower and the Batcave. There is an entire logic as to why the cave looks as it does, and why – as eagle-eyed viewers may have noted – that is a disused train line: Reeves can tell us how and why it is there, and why it is in disuse. Wayne Tower is designed beautifully but underpinned by the concept that this is a man with a disdain for the trappings of wealth.
