One of the eagle-eyed spies over at Cinematical happened upon a mysterious discovery on the streets of Manhattan today. It seems someone left their Batmobile parked on the street. Rumor has it, the Dark Knight’s wheels of choice are being used in the Arthur remake currently being filmed in NYC. Crazy.

So, what the hell is this doing in the Arthur remake? The Cinematical folks surmise it’s probably one of the cars in wealthy playboy Arthur’s fleet. Makes sense to me. Even though I am vehemently opposed to Arthur circa 2011, the inclusion of the Batmobile is a pretty clever idea.
