The Amazing Spider-Man New costume?

I vote change, but in the sense of keeping it similar and more like the comics. Not a change of a suit.

-Black webbing that is "in-costume", like the comics, rather than the metallic grey webbing that sits ontop of his suit now.
-Change the front and back spiders to be more like the comics
- Make the red and blue...more red and blue, there were moments where he almost looked orange and black...
-Make the webbing, he shoots, more organic looking as opposed to mettallic strands..
 
I actually like the spider logos from the movies better. The ones from the comic are a bit too cartoony, goofy. The movie ones look more edgy.

Same thing about the costume webbing. Making it raised gives the costume alot more depth. Most costumes look like crappy pijamas if they don't have some detail like this. Makes it more real, I figure. I do agree tho, that it would be a little darker, the metalic grey looks a little bit odd in some shots with all of those reflections.
 
i like the raised webbing but they got lazy with the symbiote suit. it should've been a brilliant white as far as the spider emblem and they should've added the white squares on the back of his hand but that's hollywood for ya...idiots.
 
I think that they should change the white webbing to black. to make it one step closer to the comics.

I disagree, I feel that the raised webbing looks out of place for these reasons:

1. A highschool student could sow together a cotton costume and make the comic spidey suit, maybe even going so far as to get a bit of help from a fabric shop or dry cleaning/tailoring store. But a $500,000 suit with reflective eyes and raised webbing, when he can't even afford a car? And I'd hate to think he spent his inheritance on buying the suit. Because that would mean he got the great responsibility part all wrong.

2. It comes across looking a bit more like scales. Like do you remember when action figures would be released with "water fun" themes, for kids to play in their bathtubs? Well the movie spider-man looks like Marvel's attempt at a Toy Biz "Aqua Fun Time Spider-Man" concept...

3. It wouldn't look like pyjamas if it were done seriously and handled with the right coloring and detail. Angle the eyes, keep the sharp edges, thin out the webbing (also make it black) and make it a part of the costume, and we've got a serious and yet cool looking suit.

I mean, think about it: Neither the 1970's CBS, nor the japanese live action spider-man shows looked too out of place. I mean if we ignore the bad special effects, both shows actually proved that the costume can work in the real world.
 
Also they could bring in the black suit, especially if they go with a black cat storyline..

BC: Hey, spider..
SM: Cat, you followed me!
BC: Look, I made this for you. I liked your old suit better before you fought those freaks at the construction zone...You and that Hobgo---
SM: I don't want to talk about it.
BC: It's all black, like my outfit *does a cute little 360 for him/the audience* with this white spider on the front and back. It's not exactly like your old one, but we'd look pretty sexy together...

And then bam! No more explanation needed, he'd just wear the black suit for the movie. And then at the end when he undoubtedly chooses MJ...he'd go back to red and blue for the next film.
 
I think they will only make slight changed like they did in the 2nd and 3rd flick, nothing to obvious.

Could not agree more.
 
Glad we didn't get this (although the black lenses WERE used for a while, i.e. filming for the armoured car scene)

I'm glad that in the end we got the faithful comic costume, but I never hated Alex Ross's version.

If he wears a new costume it should be temporary and he should have tons of quipage to accompany it. Then go back to the "Red, Torn, and Blue." (yes I love SSM).
 
Don't even joke about that. Some exec somewhere might push for that come time for the avengers movie...

Well from a logic/realism point of view yes, I agree with that. But visual-wise, those Japanese shows did look alot like pijamas.

The suit needs some depth to make up for the less angled silhouette of the actors wearing it.

One of the reasons costumes look good in the comics but look corny when translated to real life is because of the actual persons silhouette underneath. In comic books the heros have this really muscled out and sharp angled bodies that don't exist in Hollywood.

Not even Hugh Jackman managed to reach that level of rippedness and he did get close. It just takes too long and too much commitment/drug abuse. :p
 
Yeah, not gonna happen. Not now that they proved that the comic costume just works perfectly on screen.

Heh. I remember using that costume on the SM1 video game.

And, really, there's nothing wrong with the current costume. Though, I would like to see the Spider-Armour on screen. :o (I kid.)
 
i'm fine with minor tweaks, but i'd like the spider-man 4 suit basically the same as the other red and blue suits. i think it's perfect, so i wouldn't go changing it that much.
 
This is perfect! Its new and fresh, just what the franchise needs.

Well that's never gonna happen, it's way...WAY too far from the comic. While I like the costume, that suit wouldn't work for 2-4 movies. I'd rather see it as a change to Spidey's wardrobe for a bit, then return to the original.
 
So what's wrong with the Iron Spider suit? Obviously I don't want it in film but in the comics I think it was cool. And the way Stark used it to sorta, coerce Pete into going pro-reg was clever.

But why change the costume in the next movie? The costume has been great so far. There is literally ZERO point in changing it up.
