Sequels Costuming of the X-Men

[X-Maniac]

^^ Well, Watchmen looks fine to me, the comicbook versions of Watchmen are much more colourful.

I like the X-Men movie costumes, but if we were ever to get an X-Men Begins then I wouldn't mind a more colourful world where the characters gathered together by Xavier already had more individual stylings.

 

[Storm22]

The piping should be more colourful/bright alright. Especially Rogue's green and Cyclops' blue. Rogue should also have green gloves instead of the black ones she had in X3 and she should also wear her green coat from X1/X2 over her X uniform.

 

[javphonic]

I think the costumes should be dark-dark blue with yellow pipeline that pays homage to the original costume, such as with wolverine's X1 suite how it had the stripes like his comic cosutme made from pipeline... (will post sketches in the near future to clarify what I mean)

Ya know his suits in X2 and X3 also displayed the stripes on his shoulders and his side too right.

yeah I know, but then they added the big X in the middle which kind of became the main focus of the ensemble, I think the X1 suite represented comic wolverine more, plus singer claims that wolverine wasn't an x-man for the most part of X1+X2 so him donning the big X was contradictory in a sense, that's all

 

[tyler-durden]

For some reason I liked the costumes then, but I don't really like them now.

 

[The Englishman]

Id keep the black leather costumes and just add a bit more colour and personalise them a bit. All the men have a big X on thier chests so i would have them be a personal colour, like for Iceman it would be white, Wolverine's would be orange and Cyclops would be a Royal Blue/Yellow.
Wolverine and Collossus would both have sleeveless suits and fingerless gloves. And i would give them all new X-Men coats. Cyclops and Wolverine would especially have the coats.

 

[RogueDK]

All I know is if they continue on with a sequel, and Gambit is added to the cast, he sure better be wearing that signature trenchcoat I love so much. I would understand if they didn't want to add his black headgear though...

 

[Retroman]

That CG drawing is great but i'm not sure if that could work in live action.

I like the X-Men movie costumes but for future movies i'd like them to make them a little more unique to the characters wearing them with elements from the comics.

In X3 Storm wears a field costume which was a nice change from the 'battle costumes' we're used to.

The suit Matthew Fox dons for his role as Racer X in Speed Racer looks like something Cyclops would wear.

 

[tyler-durden]

I like the texture of the field costumes not so sure about the shoulder pads though.

 

[louiebling$]

lets see some manips.... of wat our present characters from the movie in their respective comic costumes

 

[The Englishman]

How about basing the costumes on the Ultimate versions??

 

[tyler-durden]

I can see the ultimae costumes in the way that field costume is made

 

[MaJiN]

I never was a fan of all of them wearing just black, especially Wolverine. Do I prefer "yellow spandex"? No, but leather works for me.
Where was the individual look for each character?

 

[wolfboy]

I would rather see the X-men with more military inspired costumes. The black suits didn't completely work for me.

 

[Matt Murdock]

Keep the X uniforms they have now! After seeing how stupid the Watchmen costumes look I'm glad we got the X-Men costumes the way they were in the movies!

The Watchmen are hardly a superhero team. They're, if anything, a league that disbanded after they were necessary. The X-Suits are, overall, mediocre, with their black base and member-specific trim. But the X-Men movies aren't adaptations of the comics, they're, basically, loosely based on the books themselves.

I don't dig the mitlitary. sorry to say. the guys in it i respect. but the institution is some thing to be desired at times.

their used for a lot of lame stuff and only seen as attack dogs to the rest of the world. most cause they have fallow orders even stuff that that's just plain wrong and are seen as not being able to think for them selves.


which why a lot of people aren't inlisting anymore and there s huge list of deserter with what recently transpired.

blech that that word..

Anyway Xavier said it best in legions quest that the x-men wear their X's on this costumes like bags like cop's and they act more like agent type spies in the way they operate any way.

plus if you take a look at the x-mens history they fight crime. not do it for false political stuff of any politician with obvious false evidence. at least these actually know what the read deal is or would try and investigate. which they's shown these heroes do inthe comic at times.


lol that word is so not digged these days even dc writer say the Green Lantern Corps


http://www.spacecast.com/wvx/2006/03/hs_march9.wvx

is a police force too. and with the way they operate it make more sense despite the corps in the word.

oh yea for give me adding that other x-men posters. I'm just trying to prove a point. besides the X-mens costumes are unstable molecules suit that FF Mr. fantastic created. that's how. unstable molecules. Their
instability allows them to be incredibly resilient to drastic changes in heat, cold,pressure, density, etc. making them ideal for superhero uniforms. Nearly every Marvel Universe hero mostly the X-Men and few heroes have taken this and made their own version of it since.
this was show in the show Spider man and friends show be for the X-Men TAS showed this.
The molecules charged by the energy a hero would morph back and forth form it's ordinary look to the super hero look cause it was similar to the symbiot suit that is know as venom. ("similar but not the same . their not made of the same material ".) that Spider man found on the secret wars I planet.
But those suit's aren't alive unlike venom and carnage, they just have special programed memory that allows to switch back and forth.

Starting it off here.

what the X-men wear isn't Spandex at all. we never saw any sweat stains, the way these costume's tore (spandex would tear in a way so that the piece torn would attempt to go back to regular size, not just lie limp), many of the x-men didn't wear these type's of costumes (so they weren't all spandex), the costumes didn't stretch(check out when ever they were taken off. They remained in the form of the person who wore it, so it had to be something else. Check out the cover of Uncanny when Logan showed his old costume to Stacy) and finally, paper has no texture.



look what the X-men wear is a Type of light weight body Armor. made up of Unstable molecule's.

now be for some of you make noise about that.



guess What? molecule's protecting us From harm isn't that Far Fetch. look at this video Clip.

it looks like the "unstable molecule's" idea isn't a bad Thing at all. since there was something close to it to be come Real that 's recently been made.

originally Created by Reed Richard's AKA "mr.fantastic" and with Xaiver.

The costume's that the X-Men have worn are "unstable molecule uniform costume's," that that X-men Wear and they are a type of body armor.

Able to blunt the destructive force blast's from lazer's and make seem like a cheap joke. UXM #277 june 1991.

not only that the Suit's were insulated and it's a multiple purpose suit.

It's was designed to keep people dry on rainy day's and under water , it's warm during blizzard's and snow storm's. much like a Temperature Suit that scientist are still working on now. Ask I'll Find it.

and it's good for Standing up Zero G's which why they are tight in the First place. The jump suit's that fighter pilot's wear when in their jet's is used to Regulate blood pressure, and must be tight for this.

It's the same case here for the X-Menv here.

the UMUC's have been also shown to be good protective wear for th Vacume of space. and Adaptable in worm climate.

For people like beast, wolf's bains and it' would retract cause the fear they had on would protect them for harness of cold. when they went to human form the Suit's reform to still protect the wearer from the Cold.

when Ever someone like colossus would armor up it would Retract and later go back to protect it's wearer when they go back to normal human form as well.




the X-men have been wearing UMUC's since the Second gen Team came in . and have had it while all the other hero's like the
avenger's Wore spandex and chain mail Armor. which wasn't as protective or Effective.


the UMUC's are way more protective then the Current leather suit's that used that Kevlar in them shown NXM.


since if look at what happened to the "uncanny team "with that plant event with black tom which tore them open. and what happened to dark star it's no wonder they went back to the UMUC's.

and they've Face worse with UMUC's and that Never happened once.

you would need Weaponry from Cable's Future time line to do the damage to them or someone as Strong as the hulk or juggernaute or blade's like Wolverine's, to tear or cut through them .




BTW Which as you'll see in that Video I just put up.

law enforcement is getting Rid of Kevlar since the making of Armor pirceing Weapon's is getting easier to get a hold of. Kevlar is obsolete now.


marvel was has the Right Idea. and no the x-men since they wear UMUC's Don't wear Spandex. no matter what few think.

they don't act like spandex all.

BTW I was origianlly from the web site Mutatis Mutandis AKA Mutant High.your source for News, previews, and Reference on the X-Men. (I'm not with them any more)
http://www.mutanthigh.com/

this was
Mutatis Mutandis MSG forum
Hang out and talk to other x Men fans or help out on the site. by doing Reviews, News, previews even Role play.
http://mutanthigh.com/smf/index.php?topi...


so I should be able to know.
after all marvel named us as the best Reference site on the web, which the Marvel Editors listed our site as of most recently as the on the letters page of Uncanny X-Men #471 "As a place to get quick info and good information there." next to our buddys at uncanny X-men .net


Here's the link that shows the proof too.

damn for got since ctv bought that station they went and screwed up the video links. damn them.

 

[taekwondogirl]

I'd have to say that while I think they could've been done better, the black suits work better than trying to adapt comic book costumes to live action. It never looks right (with the exception of Spiderman's) and since they simplified the plot with Magneto so much, good mutants aren't going to want to stand out as much.

Also, it took them 3 movies to get Storm's hair to not look stupid.

 

[Angamb]

X2 wig was good, in my opinion.

I think they could improve a bit more the costumes, at least, make them a bit cooler, with a few more colour, not like Superman, but something more.

[zenith16]

see those are the costumes they have and and few other like e.o.d one and and of the revoution ones I mean the one gambit in his own series and jeans new phoenix costume alot of what you two are saying is doable. Especially seeing that the spider man and ff movies maged to pull it off. even if ff wasn't that great the costumes were ok. so yeah these ones you two just showed are doable.

 

[Angamb]

I don't see movie Wolverine with a yellow costume at all....

maybe some parts, but not a big part of it.

oh for christ sake just reverse the colours then ,like the one he's wearing in the X force comic I know you've seen that version befor. the showed in the fox cartoon with the attack on asteroid M And besides I just Remembered that weird lion movie val killmore did when he couldn't return to do batman. where lions were sneeking around killing people/ humans in the darkness of night. which was said to based on a true story. if lions can do that with their overly yellow fur among other animals that have black and yellow then I'll never get why it's so hard to see this look be done. LOL seriously.

and beside wolverine not a sneeker. the other I've seen use stealth he just runs straight a head to fight "cause of" you know why. he was never much for that any way.
