Came here to post this. Looks bloody amazing.
 
I say use the suit from Entourage!
 
I think it depends on what Aquaman's role in this film is, doesn't it?
 
I'm sure everyone already knows how I feel about this. :funny:
 
Make sense if he had a diving suit
 
I feel like we will get the usual Snyder costume;
Something that's a lot like the original, but with some small tweaks and washed out colour
 
Classic, I'm not a huge fan of the shirtless Aquaman look.
 
Classic suit. Everything else would be a disgrace.
I don't want the hook. It doesn't belong to the real, regal Aquaman.

What's up with Momoa's tattoos? Will Arthur Curry just be a tough rock guy who happens to have the water based powers?
 
I honestly don't see how anyone can like the classic costume but that's me.
 
I think the classic costume is more or less a blank slate that could be adapted into something very striking, or could look very bland and unrefined. It is basically an orange shirt and green pants, after all.
 
As far as the hook goes? I think pulling a Justice League animated series and having Aquadrogo hack off his own hand would be a pretty killer way to sell him to the audience. That might be a better fit for the Justice League movie, though. I doubt he's going to have that large a role in BVS.
 
What if they don't show the moment he loses his hand, and is just that way upon introduction? :eek:
 
I voted Other, because I was a fan of the Blue costume
introduced in the Aquaman limited series back in the day.
Some folks didn't like it, but I thought it a vast improvement on
the orange and green.

Perhaps if they do go with the classic look they'll mute the colours
(as has been done with WW's costume).

Didn't he do that to save his son?

That would be cool to see though.
 
Want me to relate to him? Yup, showing him do something crazy to save his kid - I can imagine any (genuine) parent do that.

I would like to see the orange and green adapted into something hectic cool. A professional design team and making it with a metallic sheen should look awesome.
 
I really want to see the orange and green costume used, I think the scale mail would look fantastic on screen and I'd love if they used some mediterranean or caribbean designs on the costume to add visual interest and make him appear more regal. I think his costume could be adapted into something absolutely incredible.
 
Traditional scale mail or something more fish/reptilian scale as a change? I just wonder if Snyder would want to avoid a gold or metallic as it may seem impractical to him.

perhaps somewhere in between to make it both familiar and otherworldly?
 
I would think at some point this is part of their design process in creating it :shr:

I'll honestly be surprised if Aquaman doesn't sport scale mail, I don't see Snyder passing up on a beautiful texture like that given his obsession with putting texture on the suits, not to mention that the costume actually is scale mail in the comics.

Also I wouldn't mind something like this replacing Aquaman's gloves. with more texture and color though.

On certain rare and wonderful occasions, the New52 actually gets something right. This suit is one such occasion. This is a good costume for him.

Whatever they do, I hope they don't make his costume shirtless as a default. That would be cheestastic.
 
You could go with a Smallville like version of Aquaman's costume. :o
