Mauro's Adventure Watching THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Batman Movie Filming in Newark, New Jersey

Check out these fun pics shared by a Bat-Blog Fan named Mauro. He works just a few blocks from where they were filming THE DARK KNIGHT RISE Batman movie and he got some great pics! Mauro wrote,
"Lots of GCPD cars and SWAT TEAM trucks were on the street and I got to see Anne Hathaway briefly with Christian Bale. They were shooting their scenes underground in Newark's really nice tunnel system, inside the subway. Most of the above street area has been converted to "Gotham City Transit System" Subway Stops and there were about 100 Cops all over the place in Official GCPD uniforms. It was a lot of fun to see it all set up and I took some pics of with me with the film-prop cars. I also got a photo of Christian Bale walking to his escort car. He was walking pretty fast so I could only get a shot of his back, he was dressed as Bruce Wayne with a black trench coat."
Wow Mauro! Thank you for sharing your fun photos & your story. I gotta admit I am totally JEALOUS! ( Ha Ha! ) But I do appreciate your thinking about the Bat-Blog & these pics are great, that's awesome! I can't wait to see this new Batman movie!

More THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Batman Movie Filming in Newark, New Jersey

The other day we posted some photos here at the BAT-BLOG.COM from our friend & Ace Bat-Reporter BATDAVE. He traveled to where THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Batman Movie was filming in Newark, New Jersey & got some fun pics. Well, Batdave had to leave early but his friend Don stayed behind and he got even more pictures for us ( Thanks Don!! ).



The first one is a very pretty girl expressing her political support for the movie by holding up an "Occupy Gotham City" sign!



Next up is an actual photo of Don. He spotted one of the many "Gotham City Police Department" Movie Prop Vehicles that were up & down the street. I like the expression on his face. To me it says, "Yeah, I'm gonna come back later tonight & STEAL this thing!" ( Ha! Just kiddin' Don! But you know you were thinking that for a few seconds, ha! ) Then we get a great view of one of the GCPD Utility Trucks.



You might remember our previous post where we shared "Fake Signs" that were all over the street making it look like a real Gotham City. Well, here is a Transit Sign of Gotham's Subway System. Wow! What detail!!

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Batman Movie Filming in Newark, New Jersey

The Bat-Blog's Ace Bat-Reporter BatDave shared a few pics with us last night of the BATMAN, THE DARK KNIGHT RISES movie filming in Newark, New Jersey. He didn't catch any Actors running around but that's because they were filming the whole day underground. I guess, down in the Subway System. But, he said the cool thing was that they had turned the Battery Park area into Gotham City! Shown here are some of the fake signs they created. Stuff like, "Gotham Transit Authority" or "Gotham Library"...funny! He also saw this huge crane with lighting equipment. Now, BatDave had to leave, but his friend Don stayed really late and got a photo of himself standing 5 feet away from Gary Oldman! Yes, Jim Gordon! We hope to post that later but for now these "Fake Signs" are pretty great! One last thing, these signs seem like some crazy-insane detailing because, are we even going to actually "see them" in the movie?!

Two Real-Life BATMAN HEROES Raise Funds For Cerebral Palsy Children's Charity!

OK, Here's a story that we can all be very very proud of! Our Good Friend & Serious Bat-Reporter BATDAVE sent us this story with wonderful photos. Last Monday, the "Galloping Hill Cruisers Car Club" held their annual Halloween Fundraiser at the Historic 1920's FIVE POINTS Hot Dog Stand in Union Township, NJ. And, thanks to the presence of BATMAN that night, the Cruisers were able to collect over $2000 for a local Cerebral Palsy Children's Charity called NJID ( The New Jersey Institute for Disabilities ). At the event were two real-life heroes dressed as 2 different styles of Batman, the "Adam West and Christian Bale" versions. There was also an extremely nice 1966 Batmobile Replica Car there as well! The fun-filled event went on for almost 5 hours & everybody had a great time. But the more important thing, was that it raised a lot of money for an extremely good cause!

The JUNIOR BATSQUAD Strikes Back!!

The JUNIOR BATSQUAD is a group of Kids living in New Jersey who are all total Batman Fans, they're AWESOME! Well, these photos are from a recent field trip where they got to visit a Super BATMAN Toy Collector who has a ton of cool collectibles. While there they goofed around & took these fun pics for the Bat-Blog.



In the 1st one they holding up an extremely RARE Autographed Framed Photo of Lewis Wilson as BATMAN, from the 1943 Serial Movies. I guess you could say he was the very 1st Batman Actor! Sadly, he died in 2000 at the golden age of 80. It's an extremely cool photo.



Next, the Kids are playing with a 1967 BATMAN Movie Prop. Actually, it's a Replica of the BOMB made famous by Adam West. I love the pose of the Boy holding it, just like West in the film, hilarious!!

Gene's Vintage Photo - The Original BATMAN TV Show 1966 Batmobile Car

Check out this amazing photo! It belongs to a guy in New Jersey named Gene. His story is, "Back in February of 1967, my dad took me and my younger brother Michael over to the Old Armory in West Orange, NJ, where they used to have great Hot Rods and Stock Car Shows. My Dad took this lone photo of us in front of one of the five original BATMAN TV 1966 Batmobiles!" WOW!!! Gene strongly believes the Custom Car he saw in 1967 was the #4 Batmobile ( the vehicle used for all the drag racing scenes ) because of the elaborate seat belt harnesses he and his brother recall seeing in the interior. Also, CHECK OUT the awesome life-size cardboard cutouts of Adam & Burt to the far right!!! This is a Classic Childhood Photograph! I wanna thank BatDave for bringing it to our attention & especially thank Gene for sharing his wonderful childhood memory... great stuff!

Photos - Comic Book Artist JOE KUBERT at New Jersey Comic Book Store!

Last week the Bat-Blog announced the special appearance of JOE KUBERT for a Book Signing at Dewey's Comic City in NJ. Well, Ace Bat-Reporter BatDave went to the event & said it was fantastic! He said that, "Mr. Kubert was extremely nice & even signed stuff for free!" It's great to see that some Artists are not greedy, ha! but, I've always been told by Friends who have met this guy that he's very down to earth. So, that's cool. While there Bat-Dave had some of his personal comic books, favorites from his childhood, signed. He also got these great pics. The 1st one shows the legend himself, Joe Kubert! Oh man, I wish I could have been there. As a side note: the last image, of the classic comic book covers, I made that into a JOE KUBERT COVER ART Wallpaper Background you can use to brighten your desktop. Also, a special thanks goes out to BatDave for his awesome reporting skills!

1966 BATMOBILE Spotted at Hot Rods and Harleys Car Show in NJ

Last Saturday our friend BatDave went to cover an event for a local Newspaper he works for. It was called "Hot Rods and Harleys"! They have it every year in historic downtown Rahway, NJ. This all-day festival spotlights Bikes, Bands, Babes, Beer, Classic Cars, Food and Family Fun! ( Sounds like a good time to me, ha! ).

BatDave took his Girlfriend, BatChick, & another friend. The cool thing was that they didn't know Batman's Car was gonna be there! They turned the corner, when, KA-POW! Sitting right there was one of the coolest 1966 Replica-Batmobiles they have ever seen! The car is owned by Louie and Anna Marie and they really have outdone themselves. The attention to detail is completely insane! Just check out all the photos & be prepared to drool. Needless to say BatDave and his Crew had a wonderful time, ha! ( Thanks to BatDave for sharing his photos and story ).
