The Dark Knight Capes and Cowls - New Batsuit Discussion Thread

[TheDarkKnight08]

Now, if any of you sons of *****es got anything else to say, now's the ****ing time!

Sorry, but I was watching Kill Bill. Anyways, here is yet another example of how badass the suit looks. No font in the way, no coloring- This is the suit we're gonna be seeing in July. Now if the person who posted the pics with only the suit on the Picture thread can find them bigger, the point will be proven further.

As we already know, it looks alright from the nipples upwards, if the head is at the right angle.

the rest of it is revolting.

Speak for yourself man. Some of us like it.

 

[MAKIEVELLI]

I wouldnt even put that in your post, it sounds really ignorant.

How so?

Actually, to tell you the truth, I dislike the chest almost as much as I dislike the legs. It's so goddamn huge. If the chest was less bulky--a little flatter--then we'd almost be in business. The arms are fine (except for the shoulder pads, maybe), so flatten out the chest, fix the legs, and the suit would be a hell of a lot better. I could even let the obnoxious abdomen detailing slide under those circumstances, I think.

wait, why is solid snake a racist?

 

[deathfromabove]

despite the techy details i think the suit implies a much more natural musclature than the begins suit. meaning the shape of this suits "muscles" look much more anatomically correct.

i think its gonna look amazing onscreen.

 

[nameless_hero]

The suit has really grown on me, no seriously I woke up this morning and had a batsuit budding right off my shoulder!

This suit looks to be the best to date.

These days you just use the term homosexual and you instantly get a lawsuit. Even if you were referring to yourself.

I don't like the chest or legs, but i do like the stomach area.

I've learned to go "it'll do" with some of the designs of the movie. or better yet, some designs (like the Joker) has grown on me, and now I love it.

 

[Octoberist]

i also like the fact that it's thinner than the bulky Begins suit.

I dunno - I like that shot of it just above your post. The cowl does look good, quite happy with it now. It's weird how it looks great in some shots, and absolutely cack in others.

I like the slimmed down neck and just the slimness in general of the new suit. He's not so puffed up looking. And he no longer has dish gloves. Other than that, it really turns my stomach.

[rashad]

really? the suit has really grown on me. i like the stylized anatomy (even in the neck) and i love love the shoulder pads. reminds me of paul popes batman where he replaces the draped cape over the shoulders with dark shoulder pads and chest detail to stand out a bit from the rest of the suit. the dark knight suit does much the same thing with the dark panel on the chest and the shoulders so the areas that are traditional covered by the cape are still darker giving a similar effect. the only thing that still bugs me a little is the legs but im guessing batman wont be posing for any static full frontal shots in the film.

Just don't get sick in my direction.

Unless the infamous catwalk scene makes the final cut.

Yeah, that's my feeling as well. I really appreciate the neck, the approach they've taken strapping armour to fabric, the avoidance of sculpted muscle, the slimness, and the appearance (however marginal) of being believable equipment. How much nicer it would have been, though, if they had done this in a way that wasn't so over-the-top and lame-looking.

What catwalk scene?

this sums up exactly why i like the suit. i love that fact that under certain lighting (like in the flaming bat building shot) it really looks like it had a musclature depsite not being sculpted rubber muscles for once. i would have toned down the detail by about 15% but overall i think the end result is going to be largely applauded (once we see it in action that is).

it works for this movie in my opinion. At first I doubted it, but the more i see it the more it grows on me. Hopefully when you see the movie it will click for you. If not there is always hope for the third one right?

I like the Joe teck better that the Bat's

Im just sayin....

Sorry D. but I have to disagree. I liek the Batsuit much better than the GI Joe designs.
