Cloth or Rubber?

[tinister]

If you were given the opportunity to make a Batman movie and you didn't have to adhere to any of the existing films -

Would you prefer to have a Batman that dons the classic cloth-type uniform or the modern rubber(armored) version?

I personally feel it would be really cool to see a movie featuring a more cloth based uniform. Basically still a hi-tech uniform, but not the ultra sleek hi-tech one. More like the one in DKR.

What do you guys think?

If done right, there is no reason why a filmaker couldn't go with a hi-tech black&gray cloth-type Batsuit... it is simply a matter of proper execution and the right story.

Rubber.

I'd play around wih some cloth stuff (definately leave off the outside undies) but probably end up going with rubber.

i like my cinematic batman like i like my women; in rubber.

Rubber. It would be very hard to make the cloth one look sleek and high-tech.

One could even use a combination of the two and with good design-work could look quite effective.

I've never had any problem with rubber, but the thought of a fully comic accurate suit (made out of the stuff the Superman or Spider-Man costumes were made out of) does peak my interest.

Well the rubber is (armor) in the movie's, But whit the right script and stuff... i think they can make a suit like the spidey suit.. and explain it as a "super hi-tech" fabric..(armor)

I think it would deffently work, But i doubt we will see it...

That's how I envision a cloth or fabric suit - like the Superman and Spider-Man suit.

I think if they wen twith the grey/black color combo - it could work. With a big cape that would wrap around him so that you only see the suit underneathe in glimpses - he's never just standing there like a Fruit-of-the-looms model (like Superman) LOL
