You know what guys?

**** it. The Avengers is coming out, Cap's "Goofy" suit or not, he's a part of the freakin movie. With this epicness happening, as far as I am concerned, every damn character is going to look great in their suit. In the end, I won't be complaining about any of the costumes at all. Its alllll good. Keep Cap's suit the way it is, no problem, this movie is too, big, for the costumes to not be good. Just the fact that the movie is happening makes every costume great in my eyes, in the end.

Get my point?

Actually I think our conversation is going rather smoothly, compared to past events. I don't think anybody has gotten into b***ing territory.

Again, they are two different characters. Steve Rodgers by himself, is a different character then when he is Captain America. This is why he has a different suit. Caps comic history has several instances where he dons a different suit and sets aside Captain America for various reasons. But each time, there is a reason for it. "Realism" is never one of those reasons. Let's not forget this is a comic book character.

This looks incredibly real to me which is pretty much (along with Evans' casting) the reason I went to see Captain America.



Prior to seeing Evans as Rogers and in the costume above, I had zero hopes for the idea of Captain America as a live-action film.

Cap made enough Domestically to warrant a sequel. Had it not, I'd be singin' a different tune.

Yes that's true it does warrant it, but I'm stating the realism to MS' production schedule. People tend to get ahead of themselves

Yep, I was refering to his "comic" history as I mentioned in that post.

The costume in TFA was one of the reasons the movie worked. It was realistic enough to not be as silly as the comic counterpart (which was perfectly spoofed in the film), and worked for Captain America to have the poster boy/mascot/symbol iconography as well as being functional for his fights in the war.

Let's not forget all the pre-film consternation about it looking like a puffy quilt

RE: The helmet issue. There really is no need for cap to wear one, especially since neither HAwkeye or BW wear them and they are both more susceptible to injury. Most specialized combat units don't even wear ballistic helmets anyway as they are heavy, cause neck/back injury, and restrict both movement and line of sight. That's why back in the early 90's the military began authorizing advanced tactical units to enter extreme environments with nothing more than hockey helmets for protection against falls or errant debris



The helmet is iconic, yes, but if it doesn't look good then the costume designer and producers need to change it or remove it for future films.

Hey, I didn't even like the first movie

I just want a Cap sequel that's so good I won't even care about the first film. I'm starting to lose hope though with those ******** director choices the studio is lookin' to hire.

and all the complaints about how off it was from the traditional suit.

One decent choice, three quizzical ones: George Nolfi (writer-director of The Adjustment Bureau), F. Gary Gray (The Italian Job) and duo Anthony and Joseph Russo (NBC's Community)
