I repeat: having a rationale behind something =/= good
She literally is just wearing ropes as a top.
"Well she doesn't have clothes" Why? "Because it's alien"

Aliens don't wear clothes now?

When she was trapped she was naked?

She could've been separated from the Green Ranger power coin hence why she's naked, maybe she wasn't wearing anything underneath the suit.

@DSW The guys have chest plates that form to their chest just like the girls. Are they 'Sexualized' as well?

 

[MadVillainy]

Why?
What purpose would that serve in the story to have her be naked if she's separated from the power.

Again, you keep trying to rationalize things as a defense but it doesnt excuse poor design, story, or whatever choices.

I can rationalize that Aquaman's best friend should be a starfish doesn't mean it's a good idea

The men are wearing standard upbody style armor in terms of its shape. Using your brilliant theory, Pepper couldn't have put on the Iron Man suit because she has breast.

I am curious, is this why the women have heels as well? Do they have special heels that need more protection then the men, or do they need to be able to not run in combat?

 

[MadVillainy]

I did not even realize Pink and Yellow had heels

After I saw the boob armor, I had to check. Standard BS fare in these situations. And sure enough...

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Uh, yes Thor is sexualized. The women in my family say they go and see Thor to see his arms

Yep.

No, that's not what I'm saying... They have heels to add a couple of inches to their heights. I mean, Ludi, RJ and Dacre all like 5' 10"/11" and Becky & Naomi are 5' 1" and 5' 6" respectively. It's been done countless times in movies to better match up actor heights:

Yeah but you can't see those lifts on screen and you know that. That's a production trick not a design choice.

EDIT: and when you look at that picture of the Rangers side by side, partially unmasked, Yellow and Pink are still much shorter than their counterparts so I dont think they even cared about the height of them

 

[TeeKay]

I never understood why Black Widow wore heels. Seems impractical to me.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

They wear those for height and are usually off screen. They wear more practical footwear outside of that .They aren't in the suits. They could have just got taller stunt women. Just like how they don't have the heels on the Iron Man armor. Why are they needed again?

And you completely ignored the other bit about the armor. Why?

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Does Black Widow's heels show up on screen?

I do agree that heels on female superhero costumes are ridiculous.

 

[TeeKay]

Does Black Widow's heels show up on screen?

Well in the first Avengers movie you can see them. But blink it if you miss it. She's definitely wearing them.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I guess it depends on the movie, but she wears boots the vast majority of the time. She also wears sneakers while on the run with Cap in TWS.

The heels are behind the scenes magic for the most part. Because Scarlett is adorably 5'3.

 

[The Big G]

Its more wedges than heels...but that's arguing semantics

I still don't get the rope. Like what's up with it?

Is Rita gunna choke a *****?

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Okay Darth. Now I see that the character isn't suppose to be wearing those shoes. I'm 5 foot 1 inch so I get the short girl thing.

She wears them in the first Avengers film (you can see them in the final battle). I think the rest it's BTS Magic.

 

[TheVileOne]

Guys it's magical armor creating by mystical energy called the Morphing grid. Even if it's from the Dragon Power Coin, does it really matter?

What's the difference? I'm a guy mind you. Sorry lol

 

[sweetre15]

Also check out the "RepulsaTakesOver" tweets, they're pretty amusing

 

[TheVileOne]

Actually, Rita's costume isn't so much a big problem to me, especially the footwear. They are not really high heels, more like boots. At least she's not wearing stiletto heels, which I appreciate.

Isn't that the whole point? Why does it straight up sexualize everything because it is mystical?

How do you know we'll be seeing them onscreen? And they are in the suits. Everybody did forms of martial arts training to prepare for the fight scenes. They won't just replace them with stunt people. This is isn't the MMPR show where they're limited to pre-filmed sentai footage, they want full, authentic performances from Becky & Naomi therefore heels was the solution.
