Best suit is best.

 

[SpaceWolf]

A decade later and I never read up on if they actually digitally reduced Brandon Routh's Superman bulge. I'm not sure if I want to know.

Love of the mental image of you walking into your local library like that scene in Se7en, hunched over a table with a big pile of books, determined to get to the bottom of this mystery.

 

[Ahasverus]

Best suit is best.

Fuck yes.

And fuck the BvS redesign.

Why.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

The BvS variation is just a teensy bit better.

I really love the shield design, too.

Nah fam. That belt and those fake abs don't cut it.

 

[MisterHero]

For as trash as Green Lantern is, and as ugly as that film is, the suits forming with energy being seen through the characters' own anatomy is a brilliant idea. Like, have an actual suit form over it, but the coloring and energy visibly coursing through the internal musculature is a genuinely smart idea. It's just an insanely expensive one when you have to pay for it every second that character is on-screen.

indeed

Best suit is best.

I just wish more was done with the side panelling to separate the torso from the legs. From a distance, it just looks too much like one constant piece.

 

[GravityInsanity]

Never even saw Fast Five and I'm pretty sure the dude is right if this is the bar

How is he right if you never saw Fast Five?

 

[SpaceWolf]

Best suit is best.

I prefer the classics.

Red trunks or bust, dealer.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Never forget:

We've come a long way baby.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

The Reeve Costume, for as iconic as it is (and it is) is also pretty janky.

 

[Ahasverus]

I prefer the classics.

Red trunks or bust, dealer.

Looks like a circus acrobat, not the Superman.

 

[Zakalwe]

Colour me surprised. I really thought this would be a stinker (although I'd constantly hoped it wouldn't be).

PS - This is a WW thread, right?

Han as Namor. Han as Nightwing. Han as Thanos.

Just give me more Han, goddamnit.

Gimme the classic emblem, brighter colours and a proper belt on the MoS suit... So basically this:

 

[G-Fex]

Superman Returns is great.

Yeah yeah it's a little slow paced and doesn't have any real comic stuff in it but it's still great. Better than MoS

 

[Bobby Roberts]

This is a WW thread, right?

Feel free

Gimme the classic emblem, brighter colours and a proper belt on the MoS suit... So basically this:

That's a good one, yeah. I also like (surprisingly) the Smallville comic's costume.

But I do think the MoS shield design is one of the best the character's ever had, if not the best.

 

[Ahasverus]

Gimme the classic emblem, brighter colours and a proper belt on the MoS suit... So basically this:

I agree, only with the new emblem.

 

[WhateverItTakes]

How is he right if you never saw Fast Five?

Cus I really don't rate first class. Like at all. Just some fun hyperbole.

Gimme the classic emblem, brighter colours and a proper belt on the MoS suit... So basically this:

Down for this. but I want at least 20 minutes screentime of mullet Superman beforehand.

DCAU WW the best.

The red trunks seem to be going the way of the dinosaur and that makes me sad.

 

[Penguin]

One, how are you folks over 1000 posts with like two review snippets

Two, what is this thread Even about at this point

 

[Blader]

Looks like a circus acrobat, not the Superman.

Well, that is where the Superman design comes from.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Red trunks are dead. Bury 'em.

I don't think that's the rule, but what do I know.

Superman's suit has always looked ridiculous.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

Since this is the wonder woman thread i guess we can talk about how this is still the best design

 

[SpaceWolf]

DCAU WW the best.

Susan Eisenberg is so damn good in that role.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

I do think the costume she's rocking in this movie is going to be the look going forward

(I wish they'd either chucked the tiara or redesigned it. I don't like how it points down instead of up)

 

[Ahasverus]

Well back in topic, if there's one costume that really, really evolved in cinematic form was Wonder Woman's.

I mean, this thing happened this decade.

Wilkinson's design is definitive imo.

Since this is the wonder woman thread i guess we can talk about how this is still the best design

Too 'murica.

 

[Speevy]

Who would Adam Driver play in a comic book movie?

 

[MisterHero]

The red trunks seem to be going the way of the dinosaur and that makes me sad.

They'll make their triumphant return in Action #1000

Believe

 

[Shaanyboi]

Nope.

She's never looked better.

It used to look worse, before the design was quickly changed over fan outrage:

This was going to be the official television outfit, everyone.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

She's never looked better.

Yeah, that's basically the movie design. I think she's even got a hood in this movie?

I was just gonna dig up that Wonder Woman pilot image, but got beaten. I remember that turning the internet upside down for a week or two.

 

[D i Z]

Let's go Diana!!!!

 

[Ahasverus]

Who would Adam Driver play in a comic book movie?

Bizarro or some other ugly mofo.

 

[G-Fex]

nevermind this is better

 

[Shaanyboi]

They unapologetically leaned into the movie inspiration for a reason.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Smallville, which SUCKED at superhero costumes, managed to put Lois in a better Wonder Woman costume than the Wonder Woman show did.

 

[Zakalwe]

The film suit is 100% the best suit in a live depiction, and I can't remember a better looking comic version.

TV costumes are almost always low level cosplay tier.

 

[Chained Prometheus]

She does indeed! It's pretty baller looking imo.

 

[SpaceWolf]

...is that a guy dressed like Smallvile Clark in the background?

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Give him this black outfit:

 

[broncobuster]

First iteration of the MoS Superman suit is similar to the final, except they oddly had no yellow on the emblem and a weird line from it to the belt.

And to wrap it around to Wonder Woman, they need to use her feather cloak in one of these movies.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Arrow happened a year later and turned out a pretty decent costume. His current costume is pretty dope also.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

That's a good one, yeah. I also like (surprisingly) the Smallville comic's costume.

But I do think the MoS shield design is one of the best the character's ever had, if not the best.

Yeah, the Smallville one is good too.

I do like the MoS shield but my favourite will always be the classic one. Well, "classic" as in the one used for merchandise and shit.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Never liked the star-spangled panties for Wonder Woman. The Greek warrior motif is much better and makes more sense.

 

[Ahasverus]

And to wrap it around to Wonder Woman, they need to use her feather cloak in one of these movies.

Ok this is beautiful. Wonder what BvS scene it was to be featured in.
