Official new uniform thread

[BT18]

Something more reminiscent of his classic uniforms from the classic comics does not equal a want or desire for "yellow spandex", of course that doesn't stop all you anti-change people from repeating that phrase ad nausium at any hint of discussion for change.

He can still have a non-pastel, non-bright/light-colored uniform that isn't all black and happens to have a mask and no sleeves.

I'm sick of this re-writing of history due to filmmaker deifying that the classic uniforms of characters like Wolverine and Cyclops are so much more inconsequential and uniconic in proportion to them overall compared to the Supermans and Spider-Mans of the world.

Black and Silver were never THE main team colors of the X-Men. It was BLUE AND GOLD.

He looks just great in black leather uniforms.

 

[Kanon]

If it's a prequel, we should see some Weapon X uniforms, or military, something like that

Having it be leather is fine, it doesn't have to be all black. It can have some other tones and colors. It can have gold trim and/or armor/padding. It can have no sleeves most easily. And it can have a mask.

Why should he have a mask?

Why should he have a mask?

Because the real Wolverine likes wearing a mask most of the time. I guess Captain America shouldn't have a mask in his movie either though right?

 

[Decay]

The Wolverine movie will be some how about the X-men movies Wolverine...not the real Wolverine we know from the comic books. So there is no reason for him to wear masks.

I agree that he should wear a mask and blue/yellow. If they made Spiderman's costume totally different and without a mask, people would say "it would look stupid if he wore a mask," but we know it's much better that they stuck very close to the comics with his costume. nobody knows how it would have looked if they'd stuck with a close variation of the comic uniforms in the X movies. as is the case in Spiderman, Fantastic Four, Superman, and a bunch of others, it would have looked totally fine. That's part of the comics, and there's no reason to change it. It would not look weird at all if they do it right, but people assume it would because we were given something else and they can't see it any differently.

Maybe at the end of Wolverine they'll have him in a variation of the yellow and blue uniform like in the comics.

for some reason i just want him in his jacket and jeans

thank you. Lets see if someone now attempts to prove you wrong with pictures of fat people in fan-made costumes at comic book conventions.

Anything but his yellow outfit!!!!

 

[Jan Irisi]

Make a "brutal" near "R" rated film, and have him wear a mask? Like in the comics? Ugh.....keep it simple. No need for flair. The only color I want to see is that of blood. And no mask.

 

[axex]

So you don't think all those years of him in the mask in the comics were brutal? The mask is part of Wolverine. Maybe the next Spiderman movie should just have a guy in jeans and a t-shirt swinging around New York.

The point is that it can be done if done right. It doesn't have to look stupid, but it is an iconic part of the character. And he doesn't have to wear it the entire time, but it would be nice to have a scene or two for the fans.

Yes, but characters such as Batman, Captain America, and Spider-Man are individuals who choose to be superheroes (individuals who need to mask their identities in order to protect themselves and those they love) . . . whereas Wolverine is a bit different.

Regardless, so long as they a give decent reason for Wolverine wearing a mask (such as it being needed in secret ops. mission, etc.) . . . and so long as it doesn't look goofy, I don't think I would have a problem with it. Although, I can't picture Hugh Jackman wearing a mask quite like Wolverine's in the comics.

I don't know. Wolverine's costume has always seemed a bit tricky to me . . . because unlike good 'ol Peter Parker, Wolverine is viscous . . . Haha, and his being in costume might not quite convey the attitude of Wolverine.

 

[Jan Irisi]

No mask. It's not about Spider-man or Batman or any other superhero who wears one. Movie-verse Wolverine should never wear one, at any time. Goofy, silly, not necessary.

That's pretty much where I fall on the issue as well . . . also, in each of the other superhero movies, the characters have some sort of personal explanation or purpose regarding the use of masks . . . and I don't get the same impression from Wolverine.

 

[Superbeasto]

We should see this!!!

Ypu can't compare Wolverine's story with Spiderman. Spiderman had plenty of reason to wear masks.

There's ways of doing the black and "Yellow" spandex costume that would make it look authentic on screen withouy being overly campy. All it takes is the design and differnet color gradation.

It's (was) bright yellow in the classic comics becasue of the coloring process of the past (4 color) although today's computer colored comics don't have that problem with the limited colors of yesterday.

Why did you think so many superheroes of long ago always wore primary colors.

I always thought it was funny how a couple of years ago Marvel tried to bring the black leathered suits from the movies to the books and they look hideous. And for me they do also on the movie screen.

However, I would say with Hugh Jackman stariing in this movie and is well known by most movies goers ass wolverine in the black leatherd uniform for them not to change it.

I will say he look more fierce in his street clothes (t-shirt and Jeans) more so than that leather button up uniform.

Wait until the entire X-Men movie series is reboot in about 10 years from now and START the uniforms off right like the classic comic look.


Or they can just adapt "Weapon X" to th ebig screen and then all he needs to be is in the buff.

 

[Superbeasto]

He is not going to wear a uniform he is just going to run naked in the forest with the weapon x helmet of course, and a lot of wires hanging out, o yes and blood all over his body

 

[ScarletSpider]

I don't think he should wear one of the comic uniforms in the movie, as it'd just be hard to swallow. But if he did I'd want it to be the brown one, but with the mask points shorter more like the astonishing outfit. Though with some tweaking the Ultimate outfit could work.

But really I'd like to see him in his civilian ware, and if there's weapon X stuff then a military-esque outfit.

No marvel movie has ever had a character wear the exact same anything as they did in any comic book, I'm damn going out of my way to make clear that that isn't what I'm suggesting here.

 

[Kevin Roegele]

Who says Wolverine will even wear an X-Men costume in his solo movie?

 

[Iceburgeruk]

Chances are that there won`t be a uniform seeing as how wolvie will just be roaming on his own. He will just wear his usual crazy casual attire.

 

[Sean Madrox]

I think that he should wear the brown and yellow costume that the comic book character has, but more muted. Not sure if that would work, but I'm sure that they can come up with something along those lines.
