The 89 batmobile was a functioning car I believe.

Yes, it worked but it didn't drive very well.

Needs more Cavil.
Nolan's Batmobile made sense, and did not look like an impractical shell like the 1989 Burton version. Its one thing to accept a certain amount of fantasy, but for a live action character set in the present day (whether your present day was 1989 or the 2000s), audiences are not going to completely bury their natural perceptions of what might be possible and what is utterly impossible and/or ridiculous when it comes to a car design and its functions.
Yeah. I don’t think we have had the “definitive” Batman yet.
Even if you ignore many more obvious examples (Shaq, Reynolds as Hal Jordan, Seth Rogan, Jennifer Garner, etc),
That must be why the 1989 Batman movie was such a flop...
Also found the video. If I'm hearing Muschietti right, it sounds like he refers at one point to a "half solar-powered alien," which combined with Calle's costume and hair, would indeed strongly suggest Lara Lane-Kent (daughter of Clark and Lois), as many have speculated.Saw some of the production art elsewhere online. Looks a lot like they may be doing a version of “Flashpoint” Superman with Calle’s Supergirl.
Had this Hot Wheels as a kid and used to pretend it was the Batmobile. Probably because of the double canopy.

One of the things I loved about the Arkham games was that they kind of combined the two styles of Batman. The designs and tone leaned towards the grittier more grounded Nolan style, but they still managed to work in the fantastic stuff like Poison Ivy and her plants, and Clayface as a shapeshifting mud monster.Well, if you were a billionaire who fought crime as a bat I'm sure you afford to have a car built that looks like the 89 Batmobile and also drives amazingly.
Who cares how the prop car drives? Its fiction. Delorean's can't actually fly, british police boxes can't travel through time/space and we don't have spaceships with warp drive. Batman is no more realistic then most superheroes when you get down to it, and I'm done with seeing film makers trying to be "realistic" with him. Batman's super power is being a billionaire who uses his money to build/buy bullshit gadgets, vehicles, etc to help him fight crime, and they need to lean into that more.
We've gotten "realistic" Batman ad nauseam at this point, and we're apparently getting more of that with the horrendous looking Pattinson Batman. I hope they let Keaton's Batman be his Batman, not try to retroactively make him into Nolan style Batman version 4.

There are set photos from the Flash on social media (can't find any websites with them yet) which show the Batcave, Batmobile and Supergirl from the Flash movie. The Bat Cave looks absolutely amazing. They've pretty much recreated the cave from the 89 and Returns movie.
As far as I'm concerned, it's a Supergirl movie, co-starring Flash and Batman.Do I need all of that in a The Flash movie? Nah.....
Do I need in my life though.....? F*** yeah!!!
