Spider-Man Reboot Costume

[Spider-Vader]

It's okay design. The eyes are a little to big for my tastes, but I like it.

[Gamma Goliath]

not bad, change the spider and the triangular shaped lenses, and its good.

[Chris Wallace]

Again, they are NOT going to put him in a rejected Acheson design.
I just don't want to see something like this:

Or this:

[Chris Wallace]

Regardless of what the suit looks like, it should be plausible that a teenager from Queens could have made it.

Spidey's costume NEVER looked plausible that a teenager from Queens, with no money & no sewing skills could have made it. It's called suspension of disbelief.

[webhead9707]

i love all those suit designs!

[SpeterMan3]

It seems to me that the bigger eyes/ lenses wouldn't really look too good in real life/ live-action.

[Deaths Head II]

Spidey's costume NEVER looked plausible that a teenager from Queens, with no money & no sewing skills could have made it. It's called suspension of disbelief.

I agree. I always found it weird when he just came out with this super neat costume out of nowhere. Especially because everytime he ripped it up they had Peter complaining about how much he sucks at sewing.

[MikeFrost]

Let's face it, this (http://surbrook.devermore.net/adaptationsassorted/italianspiderposter.jpg) is the costume they need to use as the reboot one.

[Avengers-Report]

I really liked the costume they used in the Raimi versions.

[webhead9707]

Are we done overreacting? I'm sure he means it as some kind of inside joke, where we'd be seeing Peter for a second with a bag over his head because he's frustrated.
it would be cool if we saw like montage of him making the suit, and he keeps messing up the mask and he just puts a bag on his head for a second.:)

[Avengers-Report]

This is definately the way to go, and the small sinister eyes is a big part of "definately."

This IS the way they need to go.

From the waist up, I really really like that costume. Although the spider in the back should be just like in the comics; I love that spider.
I must say, I'm very excited to see how much they can improve the almost perfect costume from the first trilogy.


PERFECT!

Hey we may actually get a comic accurate Symbiote suit this time around, not a black version of the red and blue.

[spider-neil]

I always liked this design :)
don't know who drew it though

http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e288/kokigoran/spideyrebootcostume.jpg

It's perfect for a reboot! It has some quite big changes but still feels classic.
Just awesome! :)

What do you think?

I don't know about the rest of the costume but the eyes are perfect

[Cuyan]

There's an arrow pointing to his ding-dong.

[Goran]

I also like the gloves. They differ from Raimi's version.

[Judson Caspian]

I'm assuming they will ditch the red and blue and create a darker Spiderman like Alex Ross' design, black and red with black lenses (sans web shooters).
Either you're blind or mental. That suit looks awful.

[Venom160]

lol yeah and rubber bat nipples were awesome aswell. :whatever: Stick with the classic.

[MMMMM...Dounuts]

I don't know how they can go far off from the costume from the original movies without it looking non Spider-Man-y.

Does anyone else besides me want web pits?

[Chris Wallace]

it would be cool if we saw like montage of him making the suit, and he keeps messing up the mask and he just puts a bag on his head for a second.:)

Nah. No montage. Having already seen his origin in the Raimi films, there's no real reason to reprise or re-do it.

@MMMMM...Donuts;
I'd like to see the web-pits. I think it can be done well, without people thinking that they're some kind of glider-wings or anything like that.

[some guy]

A lot of those in favor of the reboot want to bring the web-shooters back. Has anyone thought of what they would look like on the costume? Not to mention the utility belt that Spidey keeps his web cartridges and camera in.

[bubbadoom]

IF the new movie really has an $80 million budget, you can forget about any significant changes in the costume. They spent a ton of money developing the first one, and I can not see them starting over for no real reason when they have about half the budget now.

It would be nice to see him BLACK and red, like he was always meant to be, at least a change in the color of the spandex would be cheaper than re-creating the patterns for the webs, etc.

Seriously, though-no accessories should be worn that cover up or detract from the awesomeness of Spidey's design. His costume is brilliant & should never be diminished with needless accessories.
Wait-I just thought of something; they may, just for the sake of distancing it from Raimi, go with the Ben Reilly look.

[Nathan]

I like it too, probably more than the regular costume, but I'd still say stick with the classic.

[shane1337]

While I also like it, the problem for me is that over the last 12 years or so, that has definitively become Spider-Girl's costume.

I like it too, probably more than the regular costume Woa, even more than the classic red and blue? I've only heard that once before in my life, and it still amazes me.

Ok i agree with everything on the list Except for skinny spidey. I don't think i can handle that. I'm not ok with that idea. I think he needs to be a little beef up. Not to big or to small and a lil lean. Not like wolverine but very close to.

[peterparker30]

Lose the raised webs, throw some oversized eyes on a'la Mark Bagley, underarm webs to seperate from Raimi's Spidey and off you go. Spidey's costume is the best visually out of any of the comic book characters according to almost every poll and wizard magazine article I've ever seen, why change it so drastically.

[peterparker30]

SPIDEY4FUN TO MAKE THE REBOOT COSTUME!!! Also no 140lb Spider-man please, 160lb's is a good weight for Spidey.

The problem with keeping them inside the costume is that while they go unnoticed in the comics and cartoons, they would noticably bulge from the wrists and the waist in live action. Reboot or no, it would be easier I think if they just stick with the organic web shooters. Spidey should have a streamlined look.

[louiebling$]

All i can say is the best way to change this costume and seperate it from the previous films is to go with the best alternate costume Spidey has had.. House of M Costume :

I just like the idea of a skinny kid being about to lift thousands of times his own weight. imagine someone like logan lerman being about to pick up a car and throw it mile. a pretty scary image, rather than someone like the rock picking up a car because he looks like he CAN pick up a car.

[DACMAN]

Not to mention ultimate Pete is skinny. But yeah. I agree it makes it look cooler when he's skinny.

Now, this is one of the funniest and most spot on posts I've read. Agreed.

Also....I never really liked the overly big eyes. I hope they don't go that route.

[bubbadoom]

The webs under the arms and the bigger eye would be fine by me - anything that takes him closer to the original Ditko look is a step in the right direction. Now, lets do BLACK and red [like he is suppose to be] and maybe small [and more] webs.

[Pac-Master]

They actually shot some footage with bigger eyes on Spidey for the first film, and it looked a little weird. A1nflnYVKrY

Would it kill 'em to just stick to the small, sinister looking eyes, for the love of wheatcakes....

Nice, some supporters. I like the Ben Reily costume as much as the next guy, but I don't want the basic red/blue (dark blue) costume changed for the movie! Just modify it! Tweak! Smaller eyes!

Geeesh!:woot:

Use the traditional Red & Blue costume. There's been too much liberties taken with this franchise already.

Love it. That's closer to the Romita and Ross Andru era I first got in on. I'd be very happy with that. Then again, I'd be very happy if they had nothing to do with the ultra skinny, Ultimate era they say they're borrowing from. And I know it's been said......but this movie needs more teen angst than the last three? Really?!

Plus it really does look slimming. Unlike the the Raimi one which did make him look kind of bulky.

Which was my point, actually. That's why that design popped into my head as I was writing that post. I was basically saying that it was possible they'd do that just to 1-distance from the Raimi films & 2-somewhat justify outboard web-shooters if they decided to use them.

Reboot or no, it would be easier I think if they just stick with the organic web shooters. Spidey should have a streamlined look.

Not necessarily. There doesn't HAVE to be a bulge. They could just show a streamlined bracelet when he takes off his glove & a streamlined belt when he goes for another cartridge. Keep in mind, I am very much pro-organic but the illusion CAN be maintained. Think about Batman in the Burton/Schumacher movies. His belt was EXTREMELY streamlined. Yet we saw him pull all kinds of "wonderful toys" from compartments that didn't exist. Hell, truth be told that's STILL the case.
And even if there WAS a bulge, it could be subtle, like in Marvels.
http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa57/SecretagentHerbert/rspidey1.jpg

[Deaths Head II]

Yeah, they don't have to have him wear webshooters under the outfit. All they need is to establish they are there while he's putting on his uniform or whatever.

Spider-Man wore two separate costumes in the previous films. One with an irremovable mask that Tobey entered thanks to a zipper on the back and another with a removable mask used for shots where Peter took the mask off. They wanted the mask to stay on and fit perfectly with the rest of the outfit so they cheated and made a fullbody suit and made the viewer believe the mask was removable. They can do the same with the webshooters. Just show an extremely thin wrist belt when the gloves are off and the audience will believe it when they don't show up as a blatant bulge while he's wearing the costume.

[craigdbfan]

^Exactly.

[A&W]

good points guys!

[A&W]

Kinda proves that somebody could make this costume at home, huh?
yeah that reminds me. a fan here a few years back posted a picture of a suit he made at home that looked almost identical to the movie. He even posted pictures of his progress while working on it.

if that turned out to be the spidey sony released the meltdown SHH experienced with the SR costume would be a drop in the ocean in comparison.

I knows, you knows. I hate it. Ok for an elseworlds of something but not for a film.

[Nathan]

I like it, for what if stories. But the classic costume should still be the only one to be used in the Movie.

Though I would like to see some other costumes on screen. Do you think the clone saga could ever be properly adapted? I'd love to see the Scarlet Spider.

I do not think the Clone Saga could or should be adapted to film.

[Raith]

The Raime costume was pretty much where it needs to be. The only big problem I had with it is that the raised webbing was so glossy and reflective that they reflected the entire environment. So when spidey was outside it would look white or silver. In low light it worked because it would catch high lights, but well lit areas just blew them out.

Raised webbing simply looks better on film. The way they cast shadows and their edges lighten up makes the suit so much more dramatic. I would just tone down their reflective ability so they emit smaller high lights.

And the eyes on the original are just fine. Make them a little bigger, but don't get crazy. Making them smaller just gives that squinty look like he's near sighted.

this head (i love how the eyes are done)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/Geijutsuka/SHH%20stuff/spideyblackandblue.jpg

minus the blue, replace with black. messy, home-stiched webbing instead of professional-looking raised webbing, regular store-bought athletic materials (leave out the bulky muscle suits)....and that's my perfect spidey-suit.

Very cool.
i like this very much. it's still obviously spider-man, with a more modern twist - plus it's totally different from Raimi's vision. i say make this the final costume, and you can have a crappier "home-made" costume using the original design early on in the movie. after the wrestling match, but before he's an established hero. maybe he goes through different costumes, trying utility belts and stuff then finds this one which he sticks to. why not? costumes change and evolve naturally anyway.

[Chris Wallace]

I don't like that idea. And the majority of the heroes who go through these changes end up back in their classic duds before long anyway.

[The Bat-Man]

I wouldn't totally discount anything until I see it on film, but I'm 95% sure that I don't want to see a Spider-Man costume that isn't red and blue. The black thing just doesn't do it for me and that'll tell me that they really are trying for the "dark and gritty" approach, which I think is all wrong for this franchise.

He looks like an alien. Has anyone here read Secret War?

Not Secret Wars, but a more recent story where Nick Fury recruits a task squad of heroes to perform a covert op in Latveria. It's an interesting story as it explains where the tech. that super villains use goes to. basically A who's who of baddie tech is being sold overseas to terrorist organizations. Black Market funds used by the Baddie to fund their activities while putting the country's security at risk.

Anyhoo, Spider-Man has a covert op costume in it, looks interesting

[Nathan]

That Secret War costume is pretty bad.

i wouldn't mind this but he needs boots and gloves. there is too much black...

[Spider-ManHero12]

Why would we get a SPider-Man suit like the Alex Ross Spider-Man instead of the classic red and blue? Doesn't make sense to me. Sure. the costume is really cool, but having it in place of the red and blue suit would be stupid.

[Chris Wallace]

Very.

If it couldn't be done right in the comics, then it can't be done right on screen.

[Chris Wallace]

Quite true.

[NinjaCarm]

Why not something like this?
http://www.samruby.com/SpectacularC/Large/SpectacularSpider-Man277.jpg

[Boom]

My problem with the Alex Ross design is that there is nothing to break up the black below the torso. It's the same problem with Batman without trunks. He just looks "naked," and it looks off.

It's just an overall bland design. Nothing's going on with it. It's not interesting.

[The Slang]

I really like that alex ross design, I'd like to see some test footage with the costume. It looks somehow more tactical. Less like pajamas and more like something for fighting. There's a slight eastern-ninja-acrobat vibe that I'm getting. I don't even mind the exposed webshooters... But I think I want to see a belt in the next movie. Can anyone try and work a belt into the design? Maybe a red metallic one. With matching red metallic webshooters.

[The Slang]

Here's one I just whipped up. I've made the alex ross design alittle more like the original. The feet are from the ben reily suit.

[S_H_F_4839]

i actually like the smaller eyes design thats been floating around, I mean they are more sinister and it would be easier to see jonah turning the public against him if he looked more creepy the big eyes sell the bug aspect but the small darker eyes sell the whats he really up to, while we are watching him play the hero.

I actually think the belt and webshooters on the outside might work if its done properly. Here's another edited version of that same ross picture:

http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/2923/sapssmsfcwulpt2331vi.jpg (http://img641.imageshack.us/i/sapssmsfcwulpt2331vi.jpg/)

I extended the length of the webshooters so they look like the gloves from the original design.

[GreySpider]

the old designs are amazingly cool and faithful. If you make it drawn on web-lines, they don't appear very well on film more to the eye and honestly just look kind of cheap. Hence raised webbing. I mean they can change color tone, eye lens sizes and even the shape of the spider on his chest/back. But the costume itself, which was touched up every film before, is pretty much perfect. Updating the look to Doc Ock will also be very hard to do.
Of course it'll look cheap! A teenage kid is making it!

[GreySpider]

I've always thought that the costumes from the first 3 films were a pretty weak plot point. Sure, they're completely awesome... but well beyond the range of a cash-strapped teenager to make. Even these guys that are doing super accurate fan costumes have hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars in them. Dye sublimation printing to lycra, CNC router cut CAD molds for the webbing, spiders and eyes, urethane for those molds, airbrushed lenses... it just keeps going. It looks GREAT, but no way could Parker have afforded to actually make it, let alone (with all of the subcontracting) keep it a secret if he could afford it. I REALLY want to see something a little more realistic to the comics. Something he could actually put together with a little skill and a couple hundred dollars. I made a seven piece costume a couple of years ago (with mildly raised webbing) from just 2 colors of lycra, some mask making latex and flexible foam. It's NOT impossible to generate some halfway decent results (IMO anyway) on a budget without it looking like a $40 zentai suit off of eBay. Even if they improve it over the course of the films it would be nice to see the first effort be a combination of quality construction and BELIEVABILITY. :yay:

http://www.superherostuff.com/OtherItems/Images/spiderman_classic_alex_ross_poster_2.jpg

This is absolutely perfect. To differentiate themselves from previous film they really need to change the costume and the two biggest things u can change to really make it look different are the webbing and the eyes aside from the basic color scheme. And honestly i think making the eyes smaller is definately the route to go. Big eyes just won't work really well on screen and smaller eyes look more "sinister" as many have pointed out, but in a good way. A spider is something to be feared and they give off that impression.

[Chris Wallace]

Except that's not who he is. He's your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. His image isn't crafted to be fearsome.

[Spider-Vader]

The smaller eyes look badass IMO.

[The Slang]

Except that's not who he is. He's your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. His image isn't crafted to be fearsome.

That's how he promoted himself. It didn't stop new yorkers fearing him and acting like he's a monster. And the mask is alittle garish. The eyes are meant to be somewhat intimidating. Tell me you wouldn't void your bowles if that mask was coming at you on someone who was scuttling aross the ceiling. To crooks he's very scary. He caused Shocker to become traumatized and have nightmares remember?

[Deaths Head II]

I believe it was even mentioned in the comics that one reason people are untrustworthy of Spider-Man is because his mask is so off-putting. I even think that's one of the main reasons why Aunt May didn't like him.

[The Slang]

So many people describe similar eyes on the creatures that experiment on them during supposed 'alien' abduction.

[socool]

The smaller eyes look badass IMO.
couldn't agree more. when i think/draw Spider-man, i use the small, sharp eyes.

He caused Shocker to become traumatized and have nightmares remember?How he promotes himself is the operative factor here since he designed the costume. He doesn't WANT to project the fearsome image, especially in light of how Jameson depicts him. So he wouldn't feed into that by trying to look scary.

Not bad, but I still wouldn't want them to go that route.

[TheWatcher]

the Costume from MARVELS.

[Tony Stark]

Here's what I would like to see, change wise:

webs under the armpit, like the Steve Ditko/Todd McFarlane version.

Change the lenses to a more natural "nike swoosh" look more like Romita's eyes, maybe a bit larger.

Go back to the traditional black webbing. Make the webbing tighter like Ditko/McFarlane.

Bottom line I want a traditional Spider-man suit, but there have been many artists for Spider-man and the version Raimi most went with was Romita's Spider-man.

[The Slang]

How he promotes himself is the operative factor here since he designed the costume. He doesn't WANT to project the fearsome image, especially in light of how Jameson depicts him. So he wouldn't feed into that by trying to look scary.

I think you're looking at the character from 'outside' the storyline. He made the costume before jameson started slandering him. And it's possible that he might misrepresent himself. The exceedingly intelligent dont usually relate to others very well. He doesn't have a group of advisors to tell him how to improve his public image.

[Chris Wallace]

You'd need someone to TELL you that a sinister-looking costume doesn't make you look friendly?

[The Slang]

In whose opinion is the costume sinister looking? I really don't notice too much of an increase in the sinister department just because his eyes are smaller. Others would say that the costume looks completely unintimidating either way. Would those eyes really 'scare' you to the point where you couldn't enjoy the movie? lol

Peter Parker shares something in common with spiders, aside from their proportionate strength and abilities. They are both feared and treated like pests, despite the service they provide to the environment.

[Chris Wallace]

Make up your mind. First you say you like the sinister look, then you argue that it's NOT sinister-looking?

[Spider-Dude]

Sinister? Nah.

its hard to picture it in cloth....try changing it to black and red, not blue and red...the blue is too strong.

actually I prefer it in black...

[thorstone]

I found this in the manip thread. I think they should keep a similar eye shape to the original film but abandon the mirror lenses for black lenses.

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj153/ntbone/TAS1.png

I would like to see a version with the red webbed material on the forearms in place of the webshooters.

[Chris Wallace]

No to the black lenses. No to the outboard webshooters. The rest I could live with.

[thorstone]

The black webbing will really define the suit from the old one.

spider-man beyond?

[Chris Wallace]

Damn. That is what that looks like.
I, for one, do not want them to use anything that is even remotely, even vaguely remniscent of the sidekick suit. That would be the absolute worst thing they could do. I'd rather see Alex Ross' monstrosity than that. And I DON'T want the Ross suit.
I'm okay with them revamping the look to a certain extent, for a fresh take without it looking too much like "Spider-Man 4", but don't abandon the essence of what makes a Spider-Man costume a Spider-Man costume just for the sake of change. That would just be wrong.

[LegendaryCaleb]

i wouldnt mind his costume ending up lookin like this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM9qA_OnXXY
wouldnt mind him to act like that in the movie either...perfect in character spidey...up until the end "you're my heroes"

[Spider-Vader]

That part was a joke, wasn't it?

[LegendaryCaleb]

you mean when he says it?
yeah prolly...just makes me cringe idk why :oldrazz:

[Kahoot]

Now before I post this...

1, I've only changed the colours..
2, I know this design didn't go down too well when it was released to the general public a few years ago..

However, I like the overall design, I love the simplicity of it..

Now, imagine this in cloth and not metal...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v46/Adenjo/ironspidey2.jpgThat alright, but a bit too far removed from the classic to be accepted by the masses.

To improve it I'd try switching the colours but I still think that might not work.

I know I posted this but given a choice i'd still love to see a simplified version of the classic Spidey outfit.. Without the raised webbing.. More of a home-made version :)

[Chris Wallace]

I am getting so tired of the "home-made" argument. ESPECIALLY from advocates of the web-shooters. If he has the brains and the resources to make web-shooters, he has the brains and the resources to make a decent costume!

I see where they are coming from but was anyone taken out of the first Spider-Man movie but how professional his suit really was?

[Chris Wallace]

Huh? That sentence makes no sense.

[Deaths Head II]

I think he means that he was taken out of the first film by the fact Spidey's suit looked too professional.

I think it was kinda weird that he went from that cheap wrestling suit to that his real suit but I let it slide because that suit looked awesome.

[Spider-ManHero12]

I am getting so tired of the "home-made" argument. Same here. NOBODY would take it seriously.

[Deaths Head II]

I actually wouldn't mind if they came up with an explanation like in USM with the wrestling outfit. Maybe something like a stage outfit. But in no way would I want a home made-looking costume.

[Boom]

.... You realize there's a difference between making web-shooters and a costume, right? One's a mechanical device, the other is sewn-together fabric. Just because you're good at one doesn't mean you're automatically good at the other.

One is actually HARDER than the other, I would think. The web-shooters being the more difficult task. And since both were made for the sake of becoming a marketable commodity-something we seem to keep forgetting-I would think that there should be a theatrical, showbiz-worthy presentation to it.

The Spider-Man costume is pretty complex and Peter just pulled it out of nowhere in Amazing Fantasy right after he made the super complex web shooters.

If you can suspend your disbelief that he is super genius enough to make his own webbing, you should be able to suspend your disbelief that he's also awesome at knitting.

[Boom]

Sure, but then again Peter Parker is a genius in that area.

Point being, my brother is in technical engineering. Doesn't mean he knows anything about putting together a professional-looking costume. Those just aren't the same areas.

[Chris Wallace]

I actually wouldn't mind if they came up with an explanation like in USM with the wrestling outfit. Maybe something like a stage outfit. But in no way would I want a home made-looking costume.

Way back in '01 I toyed with the idea that he'd start out with something pathetic-looking, & then his agent could hook him up with something better.

[Spider-ManHero12]

As did everyone. And I see no reason to backslide from an awesome costume to a cheesy one just for the sake of realism. Agreed. I still don't understand why people would want this. Does anybody realize how goofy it would look?

Raimi's SPider-man trilogy costume = :up::up::up: all the way

Heh, how cheap do you guys think we want the costume to look? I doubt any of us are advocating for a Halloween costume from Walmart.

I want them to use the same material as Raimi's suit, but remove the pattern design from the fabric and screen-print the webbing onto the suit.

WHich is what I'm saying.
And again, we keep talking about faithfulness to the comics. In the comics his costume never looked plausibly homemade.

Spider-Man has the best costume in comics, DESPITE the complete implausibilty of its creation. Why move backwards?

[Kahoot]

Isn't that what I said?

[spider-neil]

I couldn't care less whether it is plausible for a teen to make the costume, al I care about is it looking good.
people think about stuff way too much, like for instance the green gobin outfit, sam made it like that because he felt the comic GG outfit was implausible. who CARES whether it is plausible or practicle?! all the general audience give a **** about is whether it looks good or not.

bryan singer made the xmen wear lether because he felt the comic costume would look stupid on screen well sam (who got the GG costume so wrong) showed singer he was talking out of his arse with an almost perfect comic translation of the spidey costume.

I disagree here. The X-Men are a whole different ball of wax. I think he took the right approach with them. Spider-Man is DEFINED by his costume. The X-Men are not. I truly don't think their comic book duds would have worked.

we're going to have to agree to diagree, I think cyclops with his skull cap, wolverine in his brown and yellows, rogue in green etc would have looked fantastic. there are no bad costumes just bad costume makers.
look at smallville and absolute justice, that looked great and that's a tv budget never mind a movie budget.

[Chris Wallace]

I wouldn't go so far as to say the JSA costumes look great-apart from maybe Fate's helmet.
Plus I don't think the X-Men costumes would have worked within the context of the movie. I think a team uniform made more sense. Truth be told, I don't like most of their costumes on paper. (Cyclops & Jean come to mind almost immediately) I would really hate to see them on real, live human beings.

don't get me wrong the JSA looked a little hokey but they didn't look terrible, a movie budget would have made them look better. look at watchmen, kickass, hellboy. literal translations that (imho) look great.

[Chris Wallace]

You're really gonna use "Kick-Ass" as an example? And Watchmen? 'Cause Kick-Ass looks ridiculous & Watchmen is NOT a literal translation. There's a difference between this

the watchmen costumes changes are pretty minor when you consider what they could have done. put it this way I wish the xmen costumes had been given the 'watchmen' treatment.

[Chris Wallace]

I don't. Only Rohrshach & Nite-Owl's costumes have any sense of theme or style. Only Storm & Wolverine's costume's have any sense of theme or style. Rogue, Cyclops, Jean-their costumes don't mean anything. Which is why they change their look every other week. I have never liked Cyclops' head-piece or Jean's Mardi Gras-esque look. I really don't think they would have worked & I think Singer made the right call.
Plus, on the flip side, would you want to see a 60+ year-old man in THIS?
http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i283/ghostofjealousy/panther/Magneto.jpg
I won't even touch on the remaining villains' suits.

[Deaths Head II]

I think there could have been more of a compromise between the film costumes and the comic costumes. Something like the X-Force uniforms or the First Class uniforms. But I still wouldn't want the costumes straight out of the books. I think since the X-Men are a team they should have more consistent costumes. Watchmen weren't even a team technically, and even for when they possibly could have become one they had their costumes and identities made before hand. Most of the X-Men had their costume and codenames made when they joined the team except for a few exceptions like Rogue and Wolverine.

[Chris Wallace]

Same here. NOBODY would take it seriously.

While we're at it, how about a Daredevil costume that actually looks like a blind guy made it?

X-Force FTW.

Honestly, I think most of the X-Men have a comic costume that can work on-screen.

Cyclops- Astonishing
Storm- Modern/Astonishing
Jean- Phoenix
Rogue- Regular
Iceman- Blue body with the "X belt buckle
Colossus- Ultimate
Gambit- Regular except have a purple shirt instead of the protective gear

[Chris Wallace]

Touche.

Cyclops' "Astonishing" costume didn't exist when the movies went into production. Jean had no reason to wear the Phoenix get-up in the first two movies as she WAS NOT the Phoenix. I hate Gambit's costume with a passion as it doesn't signify anything. As for the rest-you're basically asking for a rainbow of uniforms that just doesn't fit the movies' depiction. It would have looked like Mardi Gras. The X-Men did start out with team uniforms in the comics, and since they-unlike the Avengers or the JLA-are not an assortment of solo heroes brought together by a crisis, team uniforms make more sense than individual costumes. Like I said before, with the exception of Wolverine & Storm, they have no theme to support, no symbol apart from the "X", no identities to protect, & they don't always HAVE to be in costume to go into action. Radically different from the likes of Spider-Man or Batman.

[spider-neil]

the way I see it is I'm going to the movies to watch 'spider-man' or 'batman' or 'superman' etc etc, so SHOW those characters, if you want to change this and that then create you OWN character and then you can change it in any manner you see fit.

spider-man
sin city
hellboy
iron man
superman (reeves)

almost a perfect translation all looked freaking fantastic

[Spider-ManHero12]

[Doc Ock]

All that is really needed is a costume that looks like Spider-Man....the variation doesn't really matter IMO.

[Chris Wallace]

I wouldn't go THAT far, Ock; That statement could easily be interpreted as "Just keep the basic design of the mask, some semblance of a spider symbol & we're good." Salinger's Captain America suit LOOKED LIKE Captain America, but was done badly. Clooney's Batsuit LOOKED LIKE Batman, but was done badly. Zane's Phantom suit LOOKED LIKE the Phantom, but was done badly. Soto's Vampirella suit LOOKED LIKE Vampirella, but was done EXTREMELY badly. You can't leave that much open to interpretation. I wouldn't want them to go the House Of M route, or Unlimited, or some completely new monstrosity that bears a vague resemblance to Spider-Man. I say, keep it as close to the original as reasonably possible, without it looking like a total carbon copy of Acheson's design.

Very true, but after the costume of the first three films.....I can't see anything better. The Unlimited costume would be odd,unless it took place in the future. :P I bet alot of filmmakers have a lot of trouble with that aspect of superhero movies, although the Superman and Burton films had a very comic book lookalike feel to them. But in this age....i'm afraid that might not work.

[ntbone]

plain and simple: if you go with a "home made" looking suit, the movie will look incredibly cheap. this is a major motion picture, despite a lower budget (if that was even a credible source) so we're going to get a high quality suit.

[Deaths Head II]

I think it is somewhat true for the time being or we probably would have heard something official about it by now to disprove it.

[Ajendo]

The closest we'll ever get to a home made, cheap-looking spidey costume is, what Parker wore for the wrestling match in SM1. spider-man's costume is timeless, universal and will stay the way it is. All this realistic crap some people are harping on about makes no sense what so ever. There might as well not even be a spider-man film as a man bitten by a spider and acquiring super powers is simply unrealistic and stupid to say the least.

[Spider-Dude]

It is important to enhance the spider-man fantasy as much as possible with a suit that does just that. However, the idea that Peter made is own suit is sufficient enough, I think. Rather then expressly showing it so in the movie. People would be distracted from the movie itself and focused on the crappy looking suit. LOL

[Chris Wallace]

SInce I doubt that they're going to do an origin story this time around, (and they shouldn't) there's really no reason to downgrade the costume.

[Troy_Parker]

plain and simple: if you go with a "home made" looking suit, the movie will look incredibly cheap. this is a major motion picture, despite a lower budget (if that was even a credible source) so we're going to get a high quality suit.

This.

[Troy_Parker]

..Well wouldn't it be better if they go down the Ultimate route for the costume (the fact that it was his wrestling costume, which he made slight modifications to)...wouldn't that be easier to believe?


..I don't care TBH, as long as it looks like the Spider-Man that we all know..and not some uber updated piece of crap.

[storyteller]

Honestly why is it hard to believe? The Spiderman suit doesn't exactly use top of the line technology. The guys on this board have made pretty damn good replicas of the spiderman movie suit on much less. I don't really get the comic book images argument. Spiderman costume is even cheaper then it appears. Its cloth done via sewing machine. Even the store bought spiderman costumes in the comics look amazingly like the real deal. The only difference is that the people wearing it don't fill it out.

I find it completely plausible to make these suits if the effort is put into them.

Agreed 100%. And I don't get all the hate with the raised webbing. It doesn't bother me at all.

[Venom Jr.]

http://sfstory.free.fr/images/Spiderman/spiderman1024.jpg

I'm assuming they will ditch the red and blue and create a darker Spiderman like Alex Ross' design, black and red with black lenses (sans web shooters).


They also need to address the origin of the costume in the reboot: is Parker's silk is involved in its production, and who is his taylor?
Yeah I liked the other one more, but I care more about them doing the Symbiote Suit right. They kind if messed that up big time to me.

[Chris Wallace]

I honestly thought the symbiote suit looked BETTER in the movie, in that it looked more like something Spider-Man might actually wear.

[spider-neil]

I honestly thought the symbiote suit looked BETTER in the movie, in that it looked more like something Spider-Man might actually wear.


would have been good if they did it like the spectacular spider-man. i.e. its a black version like the movie but as peter gets worse and more evil (or more jazzy :doh:) the costume starts to look more and more like the traditional black suit.

[Deaths Head II]

I liked the silver webbing on black, but I agree that doing it like SSM would be the best of both worlds.

[Chris Wallace]

Agreed; the gradual gravitation was cool. But another thing I liked about the movie depiction is that it created some distance between Spidey's look and Venom's, apart from fangs & size.

[Venom Jr.]

I like this look better myself...
