For those of you who live in the windy city, take a stroll down to the old post office building on Van Buren and you can see them getting ready for the next Batman film.

My brother sent me these last night. They are dressing up this building to "Gotham National Bank." And yes, it appears there is a bus inside in one picture.

So Chicagians,keep your eyes out for the bat!

I'm wondering why they would put a school bus inside that building...

He mentioned that on wall built up was fake (forgot to email that angle) - could be part of an action sequence where a bus crashes through.

Hey that's walking distance from where I'm at right now. I might have to stroll down there to take some pictures next week if it's still up.

Ryan, you will become a God Amongst Men if you could carjack the Batmobile.

That's the heist every nerd dreams of.

You get bonus points for helping the word "shenanigans" make a come-back.

Or maybe they will try to make a good scene making Joker drive the bus into the bank, robb it, and use the bus to drive right out........

Possible early makeup tests for the Clown Prince of Crime.

Edit: It was a fake. some people just have too much time on their hands.

I got some fuzzy ones, but they try to get you moving if they see that you have a camera. Helicopters keep buzzing by too, but it’s hard to tell whether they are filming or being filmed.
