most of these are pretty cool, I dont really associate batman with guns but still pretty well done all in all.

I agree with Neo, sweet but not really fitting.

They're absolutely godawful. Don't fit the tone of the film at all.

I don't really care for them, it's cool that they put so much time into them but I don't think it fits the film too well. Plus it would have been a horrible idea to use these when the film was released considering the shooting

so much for the whole "no guns" thing

Not bad, but I can see why they weren't used.

Wow... thank GOD they didn't use these. If ever a marketing campaign missed the point of what it was promoting, it would be this: some gun-nuts sculpting a Batman head out of assault rifles. Did these people even SEE the last two movies? Do they know anything about Batman at ALL?!?

Warner Bros. has screwed up a LOT over the past few years, but at least they have more common sense than THIS.

Looks cool but resembles Micheal Bay's Transformers more the Chris Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.
unknownfacts
unknownfacts - 2/18/2013, 6:49 PM
But considering what took place they really dodge a bullet with this one.

These are tests. Idea is nice but the execution here is really bad.

@unknownfacts nice pun.

How can anyone like this shit?

Maybe they're good posters for TDKR the Horror Film. Or an art student's final project.

Otherwise, just shit.

kinda bad taste after the whole TDKR movie massacre ....

I think they are brilliant pieces of work. It amazes me how one mind can figure out how to place each guns in order to make it looke like the original face.

I'll admit it, it's not relevant with the movie, not even the whole trilogy, but it's a great idea that was wonderfully brought to life. My favourite one is by far Bane's bullet head. The "eyes" have a way to stare into yours...

Just as bad as the movie!
