Spider-Man Reboot Costume

[Spider-Aziz]

Fingers crossed that all of this is just a bad dream and we'll wake up tomorrow and see the design is different and good.
I live in your nightmare?

[Venom 1988]

I find it funny how you've been looking to pick an arugement with me latley with EVERY one of your posts in this forum. As long as the webs are darker, the suit isn't as light, etc, I'll be okay. The picture of Andrew we got is way better than that set picture we got.

I'm sorry you feel that way, but that isn't the case at all. I don't post that often on the forums as I used to so I guess I can see how it may seem that 1 of my 3 weekly posts is "attacking" you, despite how ludicrous that sounds. But whatever, you can think that way or you can grow up.

[eledoremassis02]

The colors are brighter than Rami's? The official pic of the reboot looks like it has similar colors to the Spiderman 2 suit (with the blues looking like SM1). I thought Spiderman 3's suit was pretty bright.

Also...after seeing Peter wear fingerless gloves I feared they'd do it to his suit ><

[gdw]

What did Raimi change in his costume from the original general Spider-Man look? The webbing on the suit and a darker blue, almost purple or black looking which I hated. Besides that it's the generic Spider-Man. There's nothing special or unique about it. Web > Raimi.
:whatever:

[Spider-Boy]

He's a quick learner
So uh, getting used to the thing soon isn't realistic enough?

How can it be. You don't master the basic fundamentals of web swinging in less than 10 seconds. The mechanical webbing opens so many doors to the script. How he creates it, when he creates it, how he uses and gets used to it. All in the character development department. Brilliant yet subtle at the same time. You feel as if the character is evolving and growing without throwing it in your face.

I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just saying that I don't understand you.

[Flint Marko]

If Webb made the design exact to what your picture looked like, since there are so many alleged differences from Raimi's suit, please tell me that the GA would be able to distinguish the difference. Thank you, there's my "shred" of sense and more.
They WOULD. If you stuck to the same design but changed all the DETAILS that made Raimi's suit signature RAIMI, they would completely be able to tell the difference.
For instance, Christopher Reeves superman suit looks very different from the one worn in Superman Returns but it's the same basic design.
Do you still not get what I'm saying?

[chaseter]

Bad. It's not terrible because it has some good factors.

I think it is hilarious how people nit picked Raimi's costume to death (raised webbing, raised eyes, different spider symbol) and then we get this. ROFL.

I really wish they would have improved upon Raimi's suit instead of throwing everything in the trash just to be different. This feels like the goth kid who wants his own identity because he doesn't want to conform. Bleck. Hope the movie is good but the costume is doodoo.

[spider-neil]

Lighting makes a massive difference. The first picture we saw of Thor his arms looked plastic with proper lighting they looked metal. The release photo of Garfield in costume looked bad ass, admittedly the latest photo is diasaterous but they are using flood lighting. Imagine batman's PVC outfit in floodlighting, the suit looks plastic even proper lighting.

It's a blasted movie, they have to fit the blasted story in two hours, or else they'd prolong it

Or, it could be glossed over, and done in a few seconds, hell, even never addressed, if any origin is done in flashbacks.

You seem to like to make a lot of assumptions and run with them.

This...this is a joke, right?

[Alchemyst]

Well I guess im in the majority that likes the costume, I can live with the changes that have been made. The Nicholas Hammond suit looked like Spidey, but had a large belt and 1 webshooter, at the time when that was made, it was unheard of to spend loads of money making a suit out of special materials. The Raimi suit was a very good mesh of comic book and contemporary styles and did the character alot of justice. This new suit is great IMO because it maintains the primary elements while also setting itself apart and being a unique Spider-Man suit. To the people that dislike what they are seeing, these are just stills, it'll probably grow onto you once you see it in action

[Venom 1988]

Grow up? Dude, you've had a grudge against me ofr the lnogest time. I can't tell whether you're nice, or you're trying to be a complete ass. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just saying that I don't understand you.

Okay didn't realize you felt that. Well instead of accidentally escalating things, I'll just apologize and leave it at that.

[the amazing fro]

Man this is bad. Yes the lighting and the fact that its a stunt suit and the fact that its cheap photography has to be taken into account. However on face value: It. looks. awful.

I'm usually not too bothered by these kind of things but that is.... ouch.

If that is the finished costume for the movie, I for one won't be seeing this flick. Sony has butchered one of comics most famous icons!!

[Spider-Boy]

They WOULD. If you stuck to the same design but changed all the DETAILS that made Raimi's suit signature RAIMI, they would completely be able to tell the difference.

Do you still not get what I'm saying?

That comparison isn't relevant, there hasn't been a Superman suit in years. The contrast, brightness and clarity alone of the picture (leaving the suit aside) makes it noticable that it's been redone.

[eledoremassis02]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/duo_maxwell07740/retouch.jpg

Did a little color correction and fixed contrast to be similar to the official picture...

I'm confused...people want the suit to be realistic to the point a where a Highschooler can make it but it can't be cheap looking???

Also it seems that most stunt suits are either identical to the real suit or is even the same suit..if I remember Chris Daniels wore Tobeys suit in Rami's spider-man, same for Batman and the Ninja Turtle suits look a bit different but that's because they didn't have animatronics..

Why would they want to make a stunt suit that would so visibly be different from the real suit?? Wouldn't it be a dead giveaway whenever it was a stunt man?

either way I'm not a big fan of this suit.

Also it may be the lighting that hised the black "webbing" because this photo seems to have it and the metal boots
http://www.cinewebradio.com/images/stories/spider-man-suit-closeup__oPt.jpg
so this may or may not be a stunt suit but it does seem to have the black webbing that the official picture has.

[gdw]

Maybe, (mind you I am 99% certain this will NOT be the case) this is the suite given to him by the wrestling promoter, and he modifies it when he goes solo.

Might make sense if they are filming the burglar chase, but like I said, I'm 99% sure that's not the case, particularly given that we've seen the same design in the "official" pic.

One can dream.

[Spider-Aziz]

This...this is a joke, right?
It is? Really?
Unfortunately none of what he said is joking

Uh huh, and that one WAS meant to be connected. Spider-boy, you've buried your self enough, you're done.

He looks like a big blue and red condom. :dry:

I call you and raise not viewing the trailers either. Care to admit your bluff?

[Hurm...]

I still really like the costume. Very cool.

[Spider-Aziz]

What is it that so many people make this "Suspense of Disbelief" nonsense so important?
It's a superhero, he's not meant to be believable in what he does or how quick he learns

How come a teenage high schooler making two identical wrist devices and a fluid to make webbing that comes out of them good when a guy learning something physically complex in 10 seconds unbelievably ridiculous?

[Spider-Boy]

Uh huh, and that one WAS meant to be connected. Spider-boy, you've buried your self enough, you're done.


Your comparison wasn't relevant, it was a fail. Webb's suit pwns Raimi's, end of story. Suck it up and pay your 3D admission, Sony thanks you for your contribution to one of the biggest Blockbusters of 2012.

[JustABill]

For one I think the feet might be on the stunt suit only, he is running essentially barefoot under that thing on a street. Second, the only one other thing that I think throws off the costume is the red stripes down the legs. Don't know why they add those, but when Spidey's dashing about and fighting bad guys are any of you really going to be paying attention those?

No.

[Alchemyst]

Honestly, this should be a thing that you come to expect when dealing with comic book heroes. Iron Man's Armor changed how many times, Captain America boasted a different suit how many times, the X-Men's uniforms changed countless times. Spider-Man changes his suit in the comics a few times, and people were able to deal with it, so with this film, let it slide. It's a new director, new story, new cast, so there might as well be a new suit to accompany it. Marc Webb can't cater to everyone and I'm sure he's trying to deliver something that sets his vision of Spider-Man from the Raimi films. Not saying he's trying to outdo Raimi, but if you've had a trilogy of Spider-Man films with an almost comic book accurate suit, what justice does it do for you if you're rebooting the franchise and run with a suit that looks almost identical to that of the previous directors films?

[chaseter]

I wouldn't say it is a majority. But that is fine none the less if you like it.

Cool, and don't get me wrong Chaseter, i can understand why some people may not like it, given the fact that the alterations done pretty much change alot of what people remember. But I think once we see everything in motion, it may change some of the negative opinions.......at least hopefully :yay:

[jokrsmile]

I'll watch the trailers hoping this isn't the finished costume. It's no bluff. If this is the final product, this movie won't be getting my money.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Okay didn't realize you felt that. Well instead of accidentally escalating things, I'll just apologize and leave it at that. I just want you to know that I never have and still don't have anything against you.

[Dark_Lord]

You're joking, right? I can understand not liking the design, but are you seriously saying that this, not only doesn't look like Spider-Man, but actually butchers Spidey's image? I'm not talking about those metal thingies on his feet. Those are clearly part of the stunt costume.

[Alchemyst]

you might as well face it bro, it is what it is. This IS his suit, I wouldn't let something like that steer me away from watching the film altogether.

[Mrpaul]

Definately a total difference

[Alchemyst]

Once the film releases, if there is a critical backlash due to the suit itself, I'm pretty sure Marc Webb will take it into consideration and should a sequel be greenlit, he may make the suit a little bit closer to what people remember as Spidey.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Even though I liked the image of Garfield in the spider-man suit (not the new set image), Raimi's will always be the better suit because it's more fiathful. end of story. No matter how awesome the new suit might be, it will never be better than Raimi's because Raimi's was more faithful. I think most people would agree.

[eledoremassis02]

here's another pic

is it me or does the eyes look more reflective?

[GoblinWhirlwind]

The mask looks so plain in the running shot... nothing special about the eyes and the webbing hardly stands out.

[Batspider77]

That was perfect. Raimi could have made better movies, but as to the costume, that was it.


It was great but i never really liked the raised webbing.

[Majik1387]

How are these people only getting profile pics and not front or back ones? :cmad:

[Benstamania]

I know people are going to HATE me for this... but the suit reminds me A LOT of the House of M look.... which, I loved.

Seriously, I really liked that costume. Sue me. :p

IYO... IMO once seeing this, it makes Raimi's look bland and boring. Sorry, just the way I see it. Besides, it's okay to be unfaithful once in a while ;)

I like the suit, but when the Raimi suit was revealed, it had more of a "wow" factor because it was it exceeded alot of expectations. This new film is the first of what I would hope to be many more Spider-Man films, so who knows, it may go back to what we remember in the sequels to come

[bubbadoom]

The head looks fine to me, as does most of the upper half - the red stripe on the arms should be thicker, and the blue fingers are pointless, but what ever. The red stripe down the leg is what wrecks is for me - just all wrong and totally pointless. The lack of the "belt" hurts it, too. In addition to the red stripes on the arms and legs being too small, they look to be in the wrong place, the ones on the arm are too far forward, and the ones on the leg too far back.

Had they just dropped the leg strip and connected the belt, I would have been much happier with it, the thinner webs and the eye shape is fine. The proper red and black would have been nice. So close, and what wrecks it are such minor and pointless things.

[Spider-Boy]

I love how mad people are getting about the suit. It'll be hilarious when the trailer releases and people worship Webb. All in time.

[GoblinWhirlwind]

One of these pictures he's gonna be wearing the belt.

[dark_b]

how come noone in the last 10 years used metalic parts for tracking when filming running stunt scenes in the city?

[Doctor Jones]

I still can't get into those gloves. Too much blue.

I could be fine without the red band. The red stipe up the leg... I still can't decide. I do like the lenses. But it needs more red.

But there seems to be change for the sake of it. They didn't need to change that much. Some parts of the changes I like, but whatever... I'm still reserving full judgement on the full costume.

The official pic of Garfield I love now so who knows what can happen.

[Superman]

Yeah.... Not crazy about the new look I must say.:csad:

[DACrowe]

Well I understand that the film will be lit much darker (a la Nolan style) and so it will hopefully never look like this in broad daylight (albeit making Spidey a creature of the night is weak)...but man.

That is one UGLY costume.

We're talking a pair of nipples away from being a complete joke. Oh well.

[Superhero 101]

man first the horrible xmen outfits now this!

I voted "OK". I'm not crazy about it but I can live with it.

I think it's for the part where the climbs onto the car, and flips over.

Something like that, seeing as how it was done in one whole take. :)

[craigdbfan]

So is Spidey going to have different color lenses throughout the film? I don't like the red at all but surprisingly the look reminds me of some Ben Reilly/Spider-Man Unlimited look but this is such a huge departure from the traditional blue and red at this point. The eye size is good but I just can't go for those godawful red lenses. The mask itself though looks pretty good.

Not even the classic suit could save it, unfortunately. It's just we're so overly proud he manage to get that right.

[Eddie Brock]

Once the film releases, if there is a critical backlash due to the suit itself, I'm pretty sure Marc Webb will take it into consideration and should a sequel be greenlit, he may make the suit a little bit closer to what people remember as Spidey.
Honestly, how much of the GA is going to complain about this? 20%? Less?

[Spider-ManHero12]

Overall, I'm still going to reserve final jugdment until I see an offical picture of the suit.

With that picture we got of Garfield, I really liked, but that picture of SPidey running across the street really didn't look nice. Overall, I think the actual suit is going to look a little different. Heck, the picture of Andrew in the suit looks different than the set picture we got.

[Whiskey Tango]

I love how mad people are getting about the suit. It'll be hilarious when the trailer releases and people worship Webb. All in time.

It happens like this every time. Just a part of the big cosmic wheel.

[DACrowe]

P.S. The Joker comparison I do not see. I always liked Ledger's look and while radically different, it still looked cool. This costume looks overthought and kind of lame. And unlike Ledger, we had three movies with a cool costume that ended five years prior. I mean this is not going to ruin the movie but I don't see how anybody will put this costume side-by-side the Raimi movies and legitimately say it is better. This honestly looks as overworked as the Schumaucher Batman costumes. Of course those were not what made those movies bad. It was almost everything else.

I hope it is better in the trailer, but it is a disappointment, to be sure.

I think you are going to have clumps of hair in your hand and gnarled teeth after this movie.
Too late, I'm bald and growling like Wolverine after the three Spider-Man films that were presented before me. Besides, I'm the one who thinks 90% of comic book films are crap. Sadly, Spidey didn't break the trend for me. I'm patient, as I finally got my Dark Knight, I'll wait it out. :dry:

[craigdbfan]

Then mission accomplished, costume designers.

Change is fine but this is more of a overhaul it doesn't resemble the traditional blue and red at all but its fine we got three movies with it. I really like some aspects, the color, mask, the front emblem even. Then there are the silver shoes we've seen both Garfield and his stunt with them so its pretty likely its part of the final design. That I don't like that feels like unnecessary change.

For the most part it's just ok for me right now. The final version with color correction and more post magic will sure make it look better that much is for sure but certain design elements I'm not really feeling.

[Whiskey Tango]

Huh?! LOL, I'm not going anywhere. I'm just not going to make a final opinion yet, lol. With that picture we got of Garfield, I really liked, but that picture of SPidey running across the street really didn't look nice. Overall, I think the actual suit is going to look a little different. Heck, the picture of Andrew in the suit looks different than the set picture we got.

I feel the same sir.

[Gold Samurai]

Same.

It isn't the Raimi costume thats for sure though.



Did we forget that this movie is being directed by someone else? Someone with different likes and dislikes and preferences.

People would call Marc Webb lazy if he decided to just go into Sony's wardrobe department and grab 20 Raimi designed Spider-man suits.

[Batspider77]

Terrible. Too much blue, too bright and vibrant, too silly looking.

Look at this set pic for crying out loud.

Raimis Movies had a great Costume and Three Average Movies...this Time we might get a Average Costume and three great Movies,who knows?

[Mako]

Understandable I just remember people hating because it looked like The Crow and thought the character would be lame because of it.

[Benstamania]

I never understood the big deal on costume changes... more so in Spider-Man. I didn't like the raised webbing in Raimi's trilogy AT ALL... but I didn't HATE the suit.

How many times has Peter Parker worn different suits through the course of his career? As long as it's red and blue I don't really care about the pattern... and like I said at least they still seem to be pulling from the comics and didn't just create something on their own. This has House of M mixed with the Ben Reilly costume written all over it.

[DACrowe]

Terrible. With the right lighting it can be upgraded to probably "OK," but the fact that the Raimi suit was so near-perfect makes this one look all the worse. As I said in the other thread, it is a pair of nipples away from being a full on Schumaucher overworked design. Simple and faithful time and again has shown to be more effective than the overproduced efforts (the one exception being TDK, but those were necessary change to create mobility).

P.S. People comparing it to Anne Hathaway's face are low and sad, sad. Hathaway is a beautiful woman. Maybe not the sex bomb people expected, but the irony of comic fanboys making jabs like that seems lost.

If the metal was just for the stunt suit, they would at least be red.
No. Pretty sure they weren't on any other shots of Spidey. We would have noticed them.

[Spider-ManHero12]

I feel the same sir. I just hope i'm right because that set pic we got really did look bad.

[craigdbfan]

Did we forget that this movie is being directed by someone else? Someone with different likes and dislikes and preferences.

Sorry my mistake. I meant the traditional blue and red design that we've had since the 60's.

I often refer to both the Raimi costume and the traditional as one seeing as you know it followed it and all.

Still think the new costume is neat but it would have been more neat if we would have gotten that same costume only with the normal design pattern and with those same colors and very defined black webbing. Then it would have possibly beaten Raimi design as another perfect take on the Spider-Man costume.

Instead they went Elseworld on us and gave us an Unlimited/Ben Reilly design hybrid. I don't dislike it, I just find it ok.

Not against change just don't like certain decisions that were made when making this costume but there's nothing I can do about that.

I got three movies of the traditional, I don't mind this costume at all actually. It'll be interesting thats much for sure.

[Robin91939]

This new picture shows that the metallic colored soles are just a stunt thing. They look slip on/slip off...no big deal.

My biggest complaint is with the eyes....I wanted bigger and rounder.

Oh well... I'm still excited for the movie, however.

What we have is NOWHERE near as bad (or bad at all depending on OPINIONS) as THIS:

Is this gonna be the new wrestling suit,or is this his new spidey suit that he wears when he wrestles.

It was always meant that Peter created his Suit to make Money as a Wrestler and Showman...never to fight Crime in it.

[Spider-ManHero12]

I feel the same sir. I just hope I'm right because that set picture we got really was bad.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Edit

[pickleweed]

at least the new one FEELS like spiderman should regardless of the details from what little we've seen. and thats the most important part for me.

[spidermanJLA!~]

I still say we need some action. Not photos, I mean some more video. And I did see the TMZ video, FYI. Anyway, Still digging that costume! I can't wait until merchandise comes out. I am so gonna get my hands on an action figure.

[Eddie Brock]

Frankly, "change for change's sake" is necessary to making movies based on a visual medium like comic books. If you want to see a comic book movie that didn't change anything "for change's sake," go watch the animated Watchmen motion comic. Translating to a new medium necessitates change. Now, you don't have to like that change, but that's a different story.

[DACrowe]

No, but it reminds me of these images:

http://www.ratewall.com/cpics/b62cdb81-dc93-4267-9cd1-44622bff5ed0_george_clooney_batman.jpg

And when compared to the old suit it looked bad:

http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/news/00017008-batman3.jpg

But you're right, it doesn't look silver B&R-ending bad. This is true.

[SkullDevil217]

^ You are seriously comparing the new Spidey suit to the abomination costumes that were in Batman & Robin?!

[socool]

I just realized, Batman is the only one without teh nipplies...probably because his bat symbol got in da way.

[chaseter]

Then mission accomplished, costume designers.

If their mission was to make him look like Ultraman
http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/6162/ultraman.jpg

Then yes, mission accomplished.

[Eddie Brock]

Can I just say that this poll just validates the point others made at the onset of the last poll - namely that you should've waited until we got the official suit, in its entirety, in an officially released picture, before making a poll in the first place? Now you're stuck making a poll every tiny step of the way. Next, there'll be a poll when a spy photo of the back finally comes out.

(Note: I used "you" not to single out the thread-maker but rather as a generalization.)

[Eddie Brock]

I would say that's a bit of a stretch, but I don't want to insult stretches everywhere. :whatever:

[chaseter]

This is the official suit. We can see the complete suit now.

[©KAW]

Those actually look more like GG's suit.

[chaseter]

Those actually look more like GG's suit.

That actually looks like his costume sans the helmet. Now maybe Ultraman Spider-Man can fight Green Goblin Power Ranger.

[Spider-ManHero12]

No....no they don't, KAW.

[Eddie Brock]

This is the official suit. We can see the complete suit now.
In spy photos with terrible lighting. Unless one of Spidey's new powers is to emanate a reddish-pink glow.

[chaseter]

You are right, the correct lighting is going to make me love the design choices.:dry:

[Kurt Wagner]

Basic design = Raimi, in every aspect. Undistinguishable, plain and simple. Pun intended actually.

To copy the "classic" design that's been around for 40 years is to copy Raimi's exact interpretation of the suit. I for one don't want that, and I'm glad the suit is the way it is. All I'm saying.

do you even know what a pun is? There's no pun in your statement.

[chaseter]

Hahahahaha

[Eddie Brock]

You are right, the correct lighting is going to make me love the design choices.:dry:
Maybe not you, but others who have misgivings about the particular shades of red and blue. Not to mention that we still have yet to see a frontal shot of the mask or the back of the suit.

[Whiskey Tango]

Following craig's example, I'm going to start throwing a variation of "but I like the Raimi suit better" in every sentence I say, wherever I am.

"Yessir, head down this road two miles and make a left at the red light. And I like the Raimi suit better!"

"Those were delicious eggs, but not as delicious as the Raimi Spider-Man suit."

"Thanks for the great sex, hired prostitute, but the Raimi suit was far superior."

[chaseter]

If the lighting adds a belt, subtracts the racing stripes, and fixes the gloves then yes...the lighting can make a difference.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Sorry, based on that picture alone I think its a terrible costume, no were near as good as Raimi's version, I'm just hoping it gets modified for the movie and lighting etc paints it in a better light(pun intended).

[AgentEnforcer]

Terrible design. I hope and pray this is the wrestler design from the origin flashback. Realistically... this is what we are stuck with. ****.

[chaseter]

This is not the wrestling design. Why would he have full on mechs with a wrestling costume?

That's what i'm hoping. The suit in the Garfield official pic looks good. I'm hoping it turns out like that. But, some of the designs in the spy pics still look a little iffy.

Well, still reserving final thoughts for the final film.

[Silvermoth]

Well, now that we have new pics, namely this one:

http://splashpage.mtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/spider-man-575.jpg

I thought we needed a new poll. I imagine some will have changed their minds.

Under the mask is Prancing Cera :awesome:.

JK, I love it. The shoes are perhaps a bit too much but yeah, very good. Nothing too drastic or different but also different enough to differentiate it from the last franchise.

[cryptic name]

wtf?! Even though I liked the image of Garfield in the spider-man suit (not the new set image), Raimi's will always be the better suit because it's more fiathful. end of story. No matter how awesome the new suit might be, it will never be better than Raimi's because Raimi's was more faithful. I think most people would agree.

i'm not sure that follows.

[DCW]

And to me in those batman pictures he does look a bit heavier in those spy pictures then in the real one. I know Garfields weights not in question, I'm just trying to show that the spy photos aren't the finished product.

[socool]

They look the same...just like I posted in the other thread. The colors are just richer and more vibrant. I don't think many people have problems with the colors.

Not really. The spy photos make him look so fat.

[pickleweed]

It looks exactly the same, just richer colors.

now your just not being honest. the first one doesnt even look like it fits him well.

you may not like the design details, but making judgements on them when they are seen the way the were not intended to is unfair.

do you look at that katy perry pic that russel brand posted of her with no makup rolling out of bed and decide whether or not she's pretty?

[BobJM]

it's just angles and different lighting. those expecting a radically different suit are going to be disappointed. True, the color may be off in the spy pics, but that's because those were taken with cheap cameras compared to what Webb is using to film the picture.

Angles and lighting make a costume look different, yes, but the design will remain the same (with the exception of the silver shoes...I'm pretty certain those are for stunt purposes)

[SuperDaniel]

The only thing i don`t like is the red stripes on the leg. They are absolutely unnecessary. It sucks that they made all these changes to Spider-man. I just hope to god the same doesn`t happen with Superman...

[Violet Lantern]

I LOVE how slim Peter looks in the new costume. :up:

[Nightmare]

I just can't get over that freakin eye. What the hell is that.

[SuperDaniel]

They are called reflective lenses. THE LENSES ARE NOT RED!!!

[socool]

I just can't get over that freakin eye. What the hell is that.

It's the lighting. The other pics show that his eyes are white.

With Zac Snyder who knows. He changed the entire ending to Watchmen.

[Spider-Aziz]

Thats my point, the set pics dont accurately show the suit.I had a blue balloon that looked purple under the florescent lights of the airport

[Rage]

I love that Spidey looks gangly again (like Ditko/McFarlane) and not stumpy. I think that most of the changes are cosmetic... but the webs not being web-shaped REEEEAAAALLY bothers me. I learned to draw those damn web shapes by the time I was 4... why are they now boxes?? Also, the red down the leg REEAAALLY bothers me. I don't like the missing belt (it looks like borats man thong) I do like the webshooters and the spider design on the front. HOPE and PRAY that the silver runners are just for the stunt suit (my co-workers think they are part of the costume because of the colour coordination with the web shooters)

For all the cosmetic things that bother me, I think they are going in the right direction with the story (from what I can guess) and AG looks the part (except for the big hair)

I'll go see this movie (as I did with Superman Returns) but in the back of my mind, the costume will probably be buggin' me something fierce! (Like SR)

[Spider-Aziz]

I just can't get over that freakin eye. What the hell is that.
The eye looks great IMO

[Spider-ManHero12]

i'm not sure that follows. What's that supposed to be mean?

Thats stretching it a little. It's more like House of M mixed with Ben Reilly

[roach]

yeah I am not feeling the suit...I understand they had to go with something different than the Raimi suit but why different from the 616 or ultimate looks?

The changes made seem to be made just for the sake of change. There is a way to make a suit look different while maintaining the same look.....Superman the movie, Lois and Clark and Superman Returns all featured suits that looked the same but made of different materials. This gave them the different look from the other shows/movies.
IMO this is what they should have done for Spidey.

[spida-man]

I'm surprised we haven't gotten the haters saying the stuntman shouldn't be using the metal slip ons for the stunt yet the way they said Chris Evans should have actually been barefoot for his stunt scene.

The colors are amazing. The design, while some things are flawed to me, isn't a horrible trainwreck

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/Majik1387/spider-man22.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/Majik1387/spider-man12.jpg
I'm sorry, I just can't hate the gloves.. I think they look good. I love the new shape of the eyes, looks so much better than squinty Raimi eyes. I'm not a fan of the barely visible webs though; I'm hoping it's because it's a stunt costume or something, but we'll see.

uhmm...wtf? the eyes for this suit are squinty too...almost sqintier than raimi's suit...

[socool]

Well, other than that, it seems to essentially be the same.

I know. the spider-man suit may look much better with correct camera angles and correct lighting.

Spy photos are the worst. They bring out so many negative people because of the crappy quality and unfortunate timing.

[socool]

uhmm...wtf? the eyes for this suit are squinty too...almost sqintier than raimi's suit...

? Barely. They are slightly rounder than Raimi's and the photo of him walking shows that they curve suddenly at the top of the lens (part on the temple)

[BobJM]

The eyes look very similar to Raimi's (which is fine by me), but maybe I just need a side-by-side of the two costumes to get a better idea of the difference

[Spider-Aziz]

Thats stretching it a little. It's more like House of M mixed with Ben Reilly
I think it has some of this, some of Ben Really, some of the original suit, and a new idea

[Majik1387]

No, they aren't.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/Majik1387/raimieyes1.jpg
By the 3rd movie, Raimi's eyes were smaller and thinner.

[JXA_ChaosTheory]

uhmm...wtf? the eyes for this suit are squinty too...almost sqintier than raimi's suit...

The designers probably made other masks with a larger eye-set. This is probably just the mask they are using for the stunt work. I wouldn't doubt it since the foot plates are on the costume and what not.

[spida-man]

what's up with the pink eye? I also love the darker blue look in the first pic. I guess cause of the light. But which will show up more on the big screen?

seriously?
SERIOUSLY? this is like the 5th time i've seen this question....how is it that so many ppl do not realize it's simply the reflection of a red light on spidey's white eye lenses?
white + red = pink...thus why his eyes look pin in that shot...
good gracious what is wrong with ppl on the internet these days?

[spida-man]

The colors are brighter than Rami's? The official pic of the reboot looks like it has similar colors to the Spiderman 2 suit (with the blues looking like SM1). I thought Spiderman 3's suit was pretty bright.

Also...after seeing Peter wear fingerless gloves I feared they'd do it to his suit ><
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/duo_maxwell07740/GLOVES.jpg

thank ya.

Can't wait to see the official photo, so we can make a proper comparison. But yeah i definitely don't see the eyes to be smaller.

My only annoyance with the new found pics is why can't I see the "black" in his costume webbing like the official pic released last week?? People are saying it's because it's a stunt suit?

What does that have to do with the black missing?

[JXA_ChaosTheory]

what i find ironic about this is that there are those, a large majority i might add, that actually like this suit which is extremely different from the suit in the comics, yet ppl ******ed to no end about the black suit in SM3

To be honest, I liked how the black suit looked in the movie. Wasn't bad in my opinion. I definitely didn't expect this suit to be catered to fans and be EXACTLY like it would be in the comics. Hollywood is all about making **** similar with their own alterations.
I like this suit too. Just a few minor changes I'd make to it but overall not bad.

[BobJM]

People don't necessarily want a Raimi costume, they just want one that's identical to the comic books (which is what Raimi did).

Which is understandable, but we have to remember that Spider-Man has had many looks throughout the years. This new costume simply took a little bit from HoM as well as Ben Reilly's costume.

All I see it as is a new take on an old classic. I'm behind that decision

[NinjaCarm]

I think people need to give up the whole "it ain't Raimi's" debate.

For shizzle

[socool]

What does that have to do with the black missing?

If it has to be destroyed, they dont want to waste money on supplies so they use stunt suits for shots where the suit wont be seen for too long or too well so it isnt noticed.

Or the camera quality and lighting is hiding it. The fact that the webbing is indented probably doesn't help...

[Majik1387]

Well, if the black on the official suit is actually hand painted, it would be a time consuming thing, but if it's a stunt suit only sort of thing, it would have been a waste of work, paint,etc if it were to be messed up; and considering how much he seems to be moving in the suit, the lack of the black webbing painted on wouldn't matter in motion.

edit: socool beat me to it.

[BobJM]

lol, yes definitely for shizzle.

I like the suit, but not because "it ain't Raimi's"

[JXA_ChaosTheory]

no people want the suit to look like the one form the comics...its just the Raimi suit looked like the one from the comics

I can definitely understand that but after so many years of comic book movies straying away from what they should actually be, like all fans should expect something like this new suit. That's all I'm saying, ya know?

[Spider-Aziz]

My only annoyance with the new found pics is why can't I see the "black" in his costume webbing like the official pic released last week?? People are saying it's because it's a stunt suit?

What does that have to do with the black missing?
When that scene was shot after the official release of Garfield picture?
Don't ask

[JXA_ChaosTheory]

People don't necessarily want a Raimi costume, they just want one that's identical to the comic books (which is what Raimi did).

Which is understandable, but we have to remember that Spider-Man has had many looks throughout the years. This new costume simply took a little bit from HoM as well as Ben Reilly's costume.

All I see it as is a new take on an old classic. I'm behind that decision

See, I should have included this in that previous post, that after seeing how hollywood has taken comic book movies and altered things concerning costumes and what not, all I really meant was that, fans should have seen something like this coming. I definitely love the new suit no doubt, but like how you said how Spider-Man has had so many different looks, it's like some people don't want to accept a new or alternate look for a Spidey costume besides the original.

I hate the stripe on the leg, and the half-belt. He just looks "off".

yet the last series of movies did just that. I am not asking for Raimis suit. But a suit that was similar yet different in the way Ditko's suit is different from Romitas which is different from Buscema which is different from MacFarlane which is different from Bagley

[theShape]

WHOA.


The suit looks awesome in that new picture and I love what's been done with it. Keeps this iconic look while updating it for this new vision of Spider-man. The silver on the bottom of the shoes is definitely for stuntwork, and I'm guessing the eye pieces will be more white/silver for the final product, but this suit looks suit and I nearly jizzed myself when I saw it with the mask.

Diggin' the new shape of the eyes, but I'm not sure why everyone hates on the Raimi eye pieces. I think that pointed, upturned eye was a great look for Spidey.

[A Necessary Evil]

Might wanna fix that, not allowed to hotlink^

[Spider-Aziz]

That 60s cartoon is awesome
Not the episodes done by the other studio though, those sucked so much

[ben_reilly_s_s]

I wouldn't go that far!,At least with this suit you can still recognized that it's Spider-Man,IF you just look at Goblins suit.....One may confuse it for some power rangers episode or a sci-fi TV movie!

I completely understand why one may dislike it all,But saying this is worse than Gobies from Spiderman1.....Way off IMO!.

Exactly HOW does this look like a Power Rangers suit?
WTF???
No Ranger suit ever looked like that trash...

Seriously... It doesn't look anywhere near as bad as people are making it out to be. The seams everywhere give off a little bit of a tracksuit vibe but whatever, it's still a great suit. It's still Spider-Man. Anybody that can't see that is either blind, stupid or both. ;D

[ben_reilly_s_s]

HAHA lady fart. Drastically changing Spider-Man or drastically changing Green Goblin...I think one carries more precedence than the other. I will give you a hint, it is this one

[ben_reilly_s_s]

I really like this. The only thing I can't really get behind are his sneakers.

Those silver things on his feet are there so that he can glide on the street while holding onto the truck.
Also, I do not like the red eye-pieces. They look very weird.
I dislike this version of the suit even more now.

[jacobed]

The red is a reflection because of the light, his eyes are white. This suit is a stunt suit perhaps a version of a suit early on in the movie like Maguire's wrestling costume. People need to quit getting all up in arms over a stunt suit.

[Troy_Parker]

change is fine but this is more of a overhaul it doesn't resemble the traditional blue and red at all but its fine we got three movies with it. I really like some aspects, the color, mask, the front emblem even. Then there are the silver shoes we've seen both garfield and his stunt with them so its pretty likely its part of the final design. that i don't like that feels like unnecessary change.

For the most part it's just ok for me right now. The final version with color correction and more post magic will sure make it look better that much is for sure but certain design elements i'm not really feeling.

What? When did we see Garfield in them?

[Majik1387]

We didn't.

Someone posted this link in the main screen comments, and while I apologize for the Perez Hilton writing on it, it gives a much better look at some of the details of the suit than the stunt suit does.

The arrows pointing him out were handy, I'd might have missed him otherwise!

Okay, suit...no black webbing, 'half' belt, thinner red strips, huge hole of webshotter, small eyes. i just don't know what to say. Just be prepared for the worst. heck i am worried what lizard will look like....

It's more symmetrical, the lines are straighter, and webbing is more visible. I don't like how shiny and leathery the new suit looks.

This suit is something else but I have a feeling it will look better in post.

Well, at least we can put the "It's his prototype-wrestler costume he wore to chase Uncle Ben's killer" crap to rest. That's the suit, and IMHO, there really is no contest between this and Raimi's. Raimi's was comic perfection.

It's strictly because Raimi's was comic perfection, however, that I at least respect this costume. They had to do something to distinguish themselves, and it's ok in that regard. Story and characterization trumps all, so this could still end up being the best Spidey movie ever, but this is a costume thread, so...

[CBGB]

The eyes are a lot better in that picture above. I mean, I remember from watching behind the scenes videos from the past Spider-Man movies, and the eyes used during stunts were a lot different than the "official" ones.

[Lunar_Wolf]

I'm digging the eyes, very comic bookish. Wanted the huge eyes, but these are good.

Yeah no doubt, Raimi's suit didn't set the bar, it IS the bar. All you can do is make alterations, his suit was comic book perfect. I think Webbs suit is great and can't wait to see it in action, but Raimi's was definitely comic book accurate. Raimi's Spider-Man is like Donner's Superman IMO

You mean it can be surpassed? I agree.

The mask (except for the eyes) reminds me of the latex concept from the 1st movie. (Sorry my scanner isnt working)

Agreed, as far as costumes, those are probably the most accurate put to film (maybe Ghost Rider too).

My biggest gripe with it is, if your going to make changes to distinguish yourself, make wholesale changes. It's like they're just making alterations here and there while still trying to retain that classic look, but instead it just comes off as changes for the sake of it, because they're somewhere in the middle of it all.

If they wanted to retain the look but make slight revisions, then they could have did that, but they took it a bit far. On the same token, if they wanted to really separate things, they didn't go quite far enough.

[Alex The Great]

I am ambivalent about this suit. The first suit was perfect, we all know this. At least they made him look different. That's hard to do considering the simplicity of the Spider-Man Costume.

Oh, and I like the eyes!

[CBGB]

If they made major changes, people like us would flip their ****.

I see what you're saying, It must have been hard for Webb to find what all he wanted to change in order to seperate his version from Raimi's, that was prolly a chore in itself due to the fact that Raimi's suit was nailing pretty much all the points. This new suit has more of an atheletic underarmor feel to it, IMO it makes Spidey look a little more ninja like, dunno if that's what they were shooting for, but that's the way he comes across to me. One thing I kinda don't like as far as the new suit is the little silver things on his boots

[Alex The Great]

I am beginning to hate the webbing. It needs to stand out more. Why did they have to indent the webbing and not raise it? :csad:
